How can you setup a custom display to show temperature or pressure as the PID setpoint on the ATV212 Drives?

You can configure the ATV212 drive's custom display to show process values such as temperature or pressure as the PID setpoint. The example below demonstrates how to display a temperature range of 32°F to 124°F.

Example Configuration

1. Calculate the minimum display value:

   • Minimum temperature: 32°F
   • Formula: 32 ÷ 1.5 (F702) = 21.33
   • Set F706 = 21.33

2. Configure the following parameters:

1. Verify the maximum display value:
   • Temperature span: 122°F - 32°F = 90°F
   • Adjusted span: 90 - 21.33 = 68.67
   • Formula: (68.67 × 1.5) + 21.33 = 124°F

Result

After completing the configuration, the drive's display allows the PID setpoint to be adjusted using the Up and Down keys. The displayed setpoint range will be approximately 32°F to 124°F.

Note: The display shows only the numeric value. Units such as °F, PSI, or other engineering units are not displayed.
