Control Loop
Closed-loop control: Component parts
• LOAD - unit to be heated, or cooled
• HEATER - electrical or gas
• COOLER - electrical or gas
• INPUT - thermocouple, PT100, dc linear
• CONTROLLER - decision making unit
• OUTPUTS - solid-state relay (SSR) driver
- electro-mechanical relay
Closed-loop control: Terminology
PV
Differential
Set-Point
Output turns on below differential band
Time
Output turns off above differential band
A common home thermostat operates with this type of control
Like West the Differential sets the allowable deviation above and below the setpoint

MAXVU
Focus on MaxVU
MAXVU Language
• Heat instead of Primary (or SP1)
• Heat Proportional Band
• Heat Power Limit
• Cool instead of Secondary (or SP2)
• Cool Proportional Band
• Cool Power Limit
• Pre-Tune
• Tune at Setpoint
No control direction parameter needs to be set - Heat, or Cool, or Both available
MAXVU Simplified Operation – Setup Mode
• Appears on first power up, or when reset
to factory defaults & then power cycled
• Most applications need only a few settings
• Quick set-up
• Short set-up mode reduces stepping
through unused settings
• Scaling only visible when using linear input

MaxVU Navigation
 Press u or d to navigate between parameters or modes
 To select and edit a parameter press r
 The parameter name in the lower display now flashes,
ready for editing
 Press u or d to change the parameter value in upper
display
Important: Press r within 60 seconds to save the change.
MaxVU Mode Structure
There are 3 main modes (or menus) on the device –
1. User Mode
2. Setup Mode
3. Advanced Configuration Mode
User Mode - the live screen used for normal operation
The process variable is always be seen in this mode
Setup Mode – allows access to the most important
parameters
Advanced Configuration Mode - Adu gives access to all
parameters via sub-menus
MaxVU Mode Access
Hold r and press u for Setup Mode
Hold r and press d for Advanced Configuration Mode
Separate lock codes for Setup Mode and Advanced
Configuration Mode
S.Loc Setup Mode – default10
A.Loc Advanced Configuration Mode – default 20
Hold r and press u to exit
Tip: Hold d button while powering up for a read-only view of lock codes.
MaxVU Mode Access Example
For example to enter Setup Mode
1. Hold r
2. Press u for Setup Mode
3. Press u until the top display shows 10
4. Now press r
You are now in the Setup Mode
1. Press hold r
2. and press u to exit
1 2
MaxVU – Returning to User Mode
The User Mode is the normal operating mode.
Hold r and press u
From a sub-menu in Advanced Configuration Mode do
this twice:
• Once to return to Advanced Configuration Mode (Adu)
• Hold r and press u to exit Adu
You will return to the normal User Mode with the PV displayed

Pre-Tune
Pre-Tune will not engage when:
• On-Off control
• Controller is set to Manual
• Setpoint ramping
• PV less than 5% of the input span from the Setpoint
Note: Same as West however unlike the P series
there is no Pre-tune on power up setting on

Read from Device
“Online” mode
Set up using the configuration tabs
Select the parameter
category
Change parameter setting by directly entering value
or drop down – similar to blue control
Set up Wizard
Select
parameter
setting from
simplified tables
Help screen
shown on right
hand side of
window
Use the configuration software to set up MAXVU as below:
Input type = PT100 RTD, scaled 0 to 600
Units = Fahrenheit, 1 decimal place.
Output 1 is Heat Output 2 is Cool Output 3 is Alarms 1 or 2
Alarm 1 = Band alarm 450.0°F (hysteresis of 5)
Alarm 2 = Process low alarm 300.0°F (hysteresis of 1)
Set-point = 470.0°F
MAXVU Group Exercise 4 – PC Configurator Software
MaxVU
Extra Exercises (if required)
Check the present set-point value
Adjust the set-point to +100
Use the front panel to factory default the MaxVU
Now check the set-point value
What happens if you power cycle after factory
default?
MAXVU Group Exercise 5 – Factory Default
Power down the MaxVU
Power up MaxVU with u pressed for 10 seconds
What happens?
