The PID offset adds a bias to the calculated PID value.
Setting Range:
0.00 to 10.00s
Factory Default:
0.00s
The output delay time builds in a delay to changes in the calculated PID value, which
can prevent oscillations and improve stability. Use the PID Delay Time when tran-
sients occur in the system and it is undesirable to have the PID respond.

are preset at the factory to optimum values for most
applications, and hence, do not need to be changed.
When tuning a system, first increase the proportional gain until oscillations occur.
Then, reduce the proportional gain slightly until the oscillations stop. Next, reduce the
integral time slowly until oscillations begin. Then, increase the integral time slowly so
that the oscillations cease. Test the system under all conditions, observe the stability
and verify that the desired operation is generated. Fine tune the proportional and inte-
gral times, along with any other PID parameter as needed.
