with the control (wattmeter, independent timer,
“worked time”, etc) continue to operate normally.
6.6 STAND by MODE
This operative mode also deactivates the automatic control
but forces the control output to zero.
In this mode the instrument operates as an indicator.
When the instrument is in stand by mode the upper display
will show the measured value while the lower display will
show alternately the set point and the message “St.bY”.
Notes: 1.
During stand by mode, the relative alarms are
disabled while the absolute alarms are operative
or not according to the ALxo (Alarm x enabling
during Stand-by mode) parameter setting.
2.
If you set stand by mode during program
execution, the program will be aborted.
3.
If you set stand by mode during self-tune
execution, the self- tune function will be aborted.
4.
During stand by mode, all functions not related
with the control (wattmeter, independent timer,
“worked time”, etc) continue to operate normally.
5.
When the instrument is swapped from stand
by to auto modes, the instrument will start
automatically the alarm masking, the soft start
functions and the auto-tune (if programmed).
