Our multi-function unit KS98-2 combines PID control, process monitoring, sequence control, data logging and alarm system. The modular design
allows to compose the hardware to exactly fit to a specific application. Application programs can be created and maintained by easily selecting
and connecting function blocks graphically using the “KS98-ET”-utility. This method is ideal for creating individually customized solutions,
including all user interface pages with minimal effort. As a complete solution in a single unit, the KS98-2 multi-function unit helps to reduce
programming, installation cost and control cabinet space.

Our library of function blocks is offering well established solutions like:

• Transparent operating menus individually adapted to the process and user requirements.
• Avoidance of unwanted settings and switchovers by access rights and situation-related (password, control signal).
• Display and adjustment of settings (e.g. recipe handling) in plain text in operator’s language.
• Automatic and manual direct access of display pages without navigating through the menus.
• Event-driven switchover of display color to notify operators about special conditions.
• An alarm system that clearly lists events and their acknowledgement in the sequence of occurrence.
• Trend displays with zoom function to monitor relevant process values.
• Bargraph displays with indication min/max limit settings
• Controllers with selftuning, auto/manual, parameter-set and setpoint selection and limitation functions.
• Operation and monitoring of cascaded control loops.
• Modular programmer with recipe selection in plain text, auto/manual operation, manual or automatic search, master/slave tracks, etc..
• Clock functions
