1 Introduction to the Controller and Manual
1.1 Using This Manual
This manual aims to explain how to set up and operate the Eurotherm 3216 series of
controllers; it must be read in conjunction with the product main manual.
Due to the complex nature of furnace or oven control the use of technical terms throughout
this manual is unavoidable. Explanations of these terms can be found in the ‘Glossary of
Terms’ at the back of this manual.
This manual covers the operation of:
1.1.1 3216P1 - Controller/Programmer
The 3216P1 is a digital temperature controller which uses PID algorithms to give excellent
temperature control. This controller can store and run a single program of 8 ramp/dwell
segments. The 3216P1 can also be used as a simple temperature controller.
1.1.2 3216P5 - Controller/Programmer
The 3216P5 is a digital temperature controller which uses PID algorithms to give excellent
temperature control. This controller can store up to 5 programs of 8 ramp/dwell segments.
The 3216P5 can also be used as a simple temperature controller.
1.2 PID Control
The 3216 series of controllers use PID (Proportional Integral Derivative) temperature
control. This type of control uses a complex mathematical control system to adjust the
power being sent to the elements and to hold the furnace or oven at the desired
temperature.

3 Quick Start Guide
3.1 Operation as a simple controller
When switched on, the controller goes through a short test routine and then shows the
measured temperature (PV = Process Value) in the upper part of the display, and below it,
the set temperature (Set Point).
3.2 Changing the Set Point
Press Up Sor Down Tto select the required SP. If the SP is higher than the measured
temperature, the OP1 indicator will illuminate in the top left corner of the display, indicating
that the controller is calling for power (giving an output).
The controller will immediately attempt to reach the set temperature and then maintain it.
3.3 Using The controller
The parameters in the controller are first shown by a short code (mnemonic). After 5
Seconds a description of the parameter will scroll once along the display and then revert
back to the mnemonic. The scrolling text can be interrupted at any time by a single press of
any of the buttons, but will not scroll again until the parameter is returned to. In this manual
the mnemonic will be shown first, followed by the scrolling text in brackets;
e.g. Prog <program number>
3.4 Understanding User Levels
There are two user levels in the controller; Level 1(Operator) and Level 2 (Supervisor).
Level 1 (Operator) is for the day to day operation of the controller. These parameters are
not protected by a security code.
Level 2 (Supervisor) provides access to additional parameters. Access to these is protected
by a security code
To Enter Level 2
1. Press and hold the page key for 3 seconds.
2. The display will show Leu 1 GOTO
3. Release the page Key
4. Press the UpSor Down Tto choose LEu 2 (level 2)
5. Press the Up Sor Down Tto enter the code (Level 2 Code = 9).
If the correct code is entered, PASS should momentarily be displayed and then revert to the
level 2 home display (See Section 5.3)
If an incorrect code is entered the display reverts back to Level 1 home display (See Section
5.3)

MC18-GB – v1.04
When level 2 operations have been completed, the supervisor must return to Level 1 either
manually or by ‘power cycling’, there is no time out function.
To Return to Level 1
1. Press and hold the page Key
2. Press Down Tto select LEu 1
It is not necessary to enter a code when going from a higher level to a lower level
When level 1 is selected, the display reverts to the home display (See Section 2.1)

4 Setting up the controller
Before using the controller (or during its lifetime) certain parameters may have to be set,
depending on specific requirements. To do this the controller must be set to supervisor level
(Level 2) see section 3.4
4.1 Maximum Output Power Setting
Press scroll 3until the display shows OP.HI <Output High>. Using Up Sand Down T
select the output power required as a percentage.
Depending on the furnace or oven model, the maximum output power setting OPHi may be
accessible or locked.
For Silicon Carbide heated furnaces, the parameter is accessible to allow compensation for
element ageing. Refer to the product manual for details.
In many models the maximum output power setting depends on the supply voltage, refer to
the product manual for details.
4.2 Customer ID.
A furnace or oven identification number can be entered if required. This maybe used to
identify one of many units, for production or quality control systems.
Press scroll 3until the display shows ID <customer ID>. Using the Up SDown Tenter
your own identification number. This can range from 1-9999.
4.3 Units
Press scroll 3until the display shows units <Display Units>. Using the Up Sor Down
Tselect the required units.

4.4 Language
The scrolling text on the 3216 can be shown in different languages, this can only be set at
the factory and therefore must be specified at the time of placing an order.
4.5 Scrolling Text
If at any time the scrolling text is not required.
Press and hold the Page for three seconds until “GOTO” is displayed

Press Scroll 3until the display shows. TEXT <ENABLE/DISABLE SCROLLING TEXT>
Use the Up SDown Tto select ON or OFF
4.6 Customer Calibration
The 3216 series of controllers are calibrated for life at manufacture, there may however be
sensor or other system errors, which affect the accuracy of the measured temperature.
Customer calibration can be used to compensate for these errors.
Dual Offset
Dual point calibration uses two offset values at two corresponding temperatures; this
changes the calibration linearly as the temperature increases or decreases.
Press scroll 3until the display shows CAL.P (Enter Calibration Code) Use Up SDown
Tto enter the password code. (Calibration Pass Code = 95). When the correct password
has been entered the display will show PNT.LO. If the wrong pass code is entered the display
will revert to zero pass code, until the correct pass code is entered.
When the correct pass code is entered and PNT.LO (Adjust Low Point) is displayed. Use
Up SDown Tto enter the Low Temperature Point, which you want to apply an Offset.
Press scroll 3until the display shows OFS.LO (Adjust Low OFFset). Use Up SDown Tto
enter the amount Offset you want to apply to the Low Temperature Point.
Press scroll 3until the display shows PNT.HI (Adjust High Point). Use Up SDown T
to enter the High Temperature Point, which you want to apply an Offset.
Press scroll 3until the display shows OFS.HI (Adjust High OFFset). Use the Up SDown
Tto enter the amount Offset you want to apply the High Temperature Point.
Once the calibration details have been entered, press scroll 3until the display shows the
next required parameter or return to the home list. The calibration data will now be protected
by the pass code. To edit the data the above procedure must be followed.

Programming
10 MC18-GB – v1.04
Single Offset
If a constant offset is required across the temperature range, set the required “High Point”
(PNT.HI) and “Low Point” (PNT.LO) to the required values (not the same), then set the “low
Offset” (OFS.LO) and “High Offset” (OFS.HI) to the same value.
Caution! - Do not make PNT.LO and PNT.HI the same value as the controller will
not work correctly and could cause your furnace or oven to overheat.
4.7 Holdback
If the temperature ramp rate of the program is quicker than the furnace or oven can achieve,
the program will wait until the temperature of the furnace or oven catches up.
e.g. If a Holdback value of 10 is set and the program is set to ramp to a setpoint of 600°C,
the program will reach 600°C, then go into an hold state; the hold indicator will light until the
furnace or oven temperature reaches 590°C, the program will then continue to control
again.
The hold back will only apply once per Segment, therefore when control has been re-
established, the hold back will not apply again to that segment, even if the furnace or oven
temperature go outside the hold back band.
Holdback can only be accessed in supervisor level (level 2) by scrolling with the Scroll 3
until the display shows H.BACK <PROGRAM HOLD BACK>: Use the Up SDown Tto select the
required Hold Back value.
If a multi programmer is used, each program can have its own Holdback value assigned to
it.
Note: When a Holdback is set, each segment used must have a Ramp Rate assigned
to it, in order for it to be recognised by the program.
5 Programming
5.1 Creating a Program
Programs can be created in level 1 or level 2 of the 3216 P1 and 3216P5. Each program
contains 8 Ramp/Dwell pairs.
Note:
A currently active program cannot be altered. Go into reset mode before starting to create or
modify a program
