3 Introduction
This document is the operator's manual for the Eurotherm control system for the control and
management of the VETICLAL-LADLE oven created for Saldotecnica Europe Srl.
This document describes the operator interface developed by Eurotherm and its use. Aspects
related to the process and the way it is conducted are excluded from this document.
4 System description
The unit is controlled through the following functions:
• Control loop;
• Setpoint Programmer;
• Data acquisition;
• Operator interface.
These functions are achieved through control tools (hardware and software).
In particular, the system includes:

- A Eurotherm PLC Model EPLC400 16 SLOT I/0, with the relevant I/O cards;
- AI2-TC/AI3-mA/AO2/D I16/DI16/DO16/RLY8/NONE;
- One Pro-Face Model HMI panel;
- the hardware necessary for the operation of the system (power supplies, network switches, electrical
components).

5.4 Setpoint Programmer
If the logged in user has Admin privileges, then it is possible to access the temperature profile
creation page.
Up to 20 configurable segments are available in Step/ramp/soak mode (RAMP/DWELL) Using the
Insert buttons. The segment is created, to which it is then necessary to assign the type
(Temperature_Type) which can be of 4 types:
- RAMP_TIME time ramp, by setting this type of segment it is possible to set the time needed to
reach the indicated setpoint.
- RAMP_RATE ramp with gradient, it is possible to set the °C gradient per second with which the
temperature set point will vary until the set point is reached.
- DWELL by setting this type of segment the temperature set point remains firm and therefore in
stasis at the value set in the previous segment for the time set in temperature duration.
- STEP this type of segment it is possible to vary the set point compared to the previous segment
without any gradient.

5.4 Setpoint Programmer Creation
For all types of segments, it is possible to activate Holdback; this function freezes the segment
chronometer if the temperature value goes outside the set limits. It is possible to set three types of
holdback, the HIGH type freezes the time of the segment if the PV of the temperature exceeds the
set point of the set holback value, the LOW type freezes the time in the same way if the PV is below
the set point, the BAND type considers the threshold both above and below the setpoint.
Once you have finished creating the temperature profile, it can be saved with a name using the
SAVE (Floppy disk) button at the bottom left and subsequently recalled.
You can create multiple different temperature profiles and then decide which one to run.

5.4 Load Setpoint
Through this page, it is possible to select a previously created temperature profile from the drop-

delete it DELETE.
Once a profile is launched, the cycle time is activated and the temperature graph begins to be
generated runtime.

5.4 LOOP PID SETTINGS
Using this page you need to set the proportional band, integral and derivative time PID
parameters. It is possible to perform an autotune during the heating cycle, it may take several
minutes after which the PLC automatically assigns the parameters calculated by an algorithm.
It is possible to view and modify the operating mode of the temperature loop, Automatic Manual,
when the temperature profile is in LOAD, the PID is put in REMOTE mode, in this mode the setpoint
cannot be modified manually but is set automatically by the PLC in based on the set temperature
curve.
it is also possible to set the maximum and minimum setpoint thresholds and the cutback.

5.4 MODULES DIAGNOSTICS 1
The system has six maintenance pages, on each page the number of the I/O module is indicated
which identifies the position of the module in the rack (e.g. Card 1 identifies module 1 of the PLC).
Under each module there is an indication of the channels and instruments connected to it, furthermore the
indication of the channel status. If no faults are detected, a green dot is displayed, which turns red in the event
of an electrical fault on the channel.
