1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. DESCRIPTION

The MicroTransII Summing Signal Processor employs current state-of-the-art digital microprocessor

technology to produce highly stable and accurate air flow measurements. The MicroTransII is factory

configured and calibrated to the exact specification determined at time of order. The MicroTransII

Summing Signal Processor is capable of receiving an external air flow signal (4-20mA / 0-10 VDC) ,

summing the two air flow values and displaying the MicroTransII measured air flow and the total air

flow. The MicrotransII offers an optional controller that utilizes a proprietary algorithm which results in

true three mode control incorporating proportional band, integral (reset) and inverse derivative (P, I,

1/D) controller functionality and tuning. The controller will provide responsive modulation of a control

damper or variable speed drive guaranteeing a constant airflow or pressure is maintained. Additional

optional features include AutoZero; High/Low Remote Alarms; Temperature Compensation; and

LonWorks®, BACnet®-MS/TP Master, and Modbus® Slave communication. Simple field

configuration of engineering units, operating range, process noise filtering, alarm set points, etc., are

performed via password protected intuitive menus that are accessed through the integral six button touch

pad. Device monitoring and configuration can also be performed by a building management system

through a LonWorks®, BACnet®-MS/TP Master, or Modbus® Slave communication network.

1.2. BASIC OPERATION

The transducer receives a differential pressure signal from the pressure or flow sensing element. This

signal is scaled and linearized before being displayed along with the total air flow value from an external

transmitter. The process output (4-20mA, 0-5VDC, or 0-10VDC) signal is selectable between the

MicrotransII measured air flow and the total air flow value. The AutoZero option detects and corrects

any zero offset caused by large ambient temperature changes. The Temperature Compensation option

compensates the flow and velocity signal for density changes caused by variations in the process air

temperature; an external temperature transmitter or input signal from the building management system is

required.

1.3. PI1/D CONTROL LOOP

The PI1/D controller measures the difference between the process value and the setpoint value to

determine the error value. The controller continually attempts to remove this error by varying the

control output signal to adjust the variable frequency drive (VFD) or damper. To optimize the control

loop response, the control parameters (Proportional Band [PB], Integrator Time [Reset], and Inverse

Derivative [1/D]) may need to be adjusted.

1.3.1. PI1/D Parameter Description and Response

- Proportional Band (PB): The function of the PB parameter is to amplify the current

error value (process value minus setpoint value) to make a quick control change to a large

error change. The PB adjustment range is 1 to 100%. The formula is Gain = 100% / PB.

For example, a PB setting of 100% is a gain of 1; i.e., it takes a 100% error signal to get a

full response of the controller. Conversely, a PB setting of 10% is a gain of 10; i.e., it

takes a 10% change of the error signal to get a full response of the controller. Therefore,

decreasing the PB value will cause the controller’s response to speed up.

- Integrator Time (Reset): The function of the Reset is to remove any residual error

present after the PB and 1/D functions. The Reset adjustment range is 1 to 300 seconds.

Decreasing the Reset value will cause the controller’s response to speed up.

- Inverse Derivative (1/D): The function of the 1/D parameter is to filter out the noise by

delaying the controller response for a specific time period and then give a quick boost to

the control output signal. The 1/D function helps improve response and stability of the

control loop. The 1/D adjustment range is 1 to 300 seconds. Decreasing the 1/D value

will cause the controller’s response to speed up.

1.3.2. Correctly Tuned Control Loop

A correctly tuned control loop will respond to an error change quickly and return the process to the

setpoint value with minimum overshoot and oscillation, referred to as a critically damped or tuned

system (See Figure 1). The three control parameters operate in concert with each other, however each

has a specific roll in controller response.

Paragon Controls Incorporated 1 Revision Level 002

1.3.2.1. Poorly Tuned Control Loop

A poorly tuned control loop may respond to an error change too quickly and overshoot the setpoint

value, respond to slowly and never return to setpoint value or continually oscillate above and below the

setpoint value (See Figure 2). For an output that responds too quickly and continues to overshoot,

Paragon Controls suggests increasing the 1/D and Reset values in small increments to slow the response.

An output that gradually approaches the setpoint but never really gets there is too slow. Paragon

Controls suggests decreasing the 1/D and Reset values in small increments to speed up the response.
