1 OVERVIEW
1.3.2 Actions in the Q62HLC
1 - 7
The Q62HLC performs PID operations in reverse action and forward action.
(1) Reverse action
In a reverse action, the measured value (PV) increases toward the set value (SV)
as the manipulated value (MV) increases.
The reverse action is effective for heat control.
(2) Forward action
In a forward action, the measured value (PV) decreases toward the set value
(SV) as the manipulated value (MV) increases.
The forward action is effective for cooling control.
