    Using proportional control only to retransmit thermocouple signal

    I connected it yesterday with your recommended settings and spent some time messing with the proportional band setting. I was able to get a near perfect linear output from 0-10vdc, with 70 degrees F (ambient/off temperature) putting out 0.71 volts, and the output maxing out at 10.02 volts at 600...

    Using proportional control only to retransmit thermocouple signal

    Ah, got it. I will tinker with it. Thanks a bunch for the help and explanation.

    Using proportional control only to retransmit thermocouple signal

    Thank you for the info. It makes sense now that I need some type of gain to get an output. Am I understanding this correct: if I cannot turn off the reset action, the output will eventually creep to match the set point? Is this the case even though there is no controlling load connected to the...

    Using proportional control only to retransmit thermocouple signal

    Hi, I am new to pid and automation in general. I am hoping someone can verify if what I am planning will work. I have a pid controller that I will be using a thermocouple as the input. It has a 0-10vdc linear output and a relay out for the second output. I am planning to use the relay output...
