• CPU Watchdog: The CLS200 series CPU watchdog
timer output notifies you of system failure. Use it to
hold a relay closed while the controller is running, so
you are notified if the microprocessor shuts down.
• Front Panel or Computer Operation: Set up and
run the controller from the front panel or from a local
or remote computer. Watlow Anafaze offers WatView,
a Windows® compatible Human Machine Interface
(HMI) software package that includes data logging
and graphing features in addition to process monitor-
ing and parameter setup screens.
• Modbus RTU Protocol, EIA/TIA-232 and 485
Communications: Connect to PLCs, operator inter-
face terminals and third-party software packages us-
ing the widely supported Modbus RTU protocol.
• Multiple Job Storage: Store up to eight jobs in mem-
ory, and access them locally by entering a single job
number or remotely via digital inputs. Each job is a set
of operating conditions, including setpoints and
alarms.
• Nonlinear Output Curves: Select either of two non-
linear output curves for each control output.
• Autotuning: Use the autotune feature to set up your
system quickly and easily. The CLS200 internal ex-
pert system table finds the correct PID parameters for
your process.
• Pulse Counter Input: Use the pulse counter input
for precise control of motor or belt speed.
• Low Power Shutdown: The controller shuts down
and turns off all outputs when it detects the input volt-
age drop below the minimum safe operating level.
