9. Auto-reset and ARW
9.1 Auto-reset
Auto-reset is performed to correct the offset at the point at which PV indication is stabilized within the
proportional band during the PD action.
Since the corrected value is internally memorized, it is not necessary to perform the auto-reset again
as long as the process is the same.
However, when the OUT1 proportional band (P) is set to 0 or 0.0, the corrected value is cleared.
(Fig. 9.1-1)
9.2 ARW (Anti-reset windup)
When PID control action is rising, overshoot may occur due to excessive integral (I) action.
ARW is the function for reducing the overshoot on start-up.
The smaller the ARW value, the fewer cases of overshoot (undershoot) caused by the integral action at the
point where the PV reaches the SV. However, it takes time until stabilization.
