15 Appendix 1 – Glossary of Terms Used
Active Setpoint
The term Active Setpoint is used to describe the currently selected setpoint when the 
instrument is in Controller Mode. Controllers can use Local Setpoint 1 and/or the Alternative 
Setpoint. Only one of the setpoints can be active at any time. During Profiler Control, the 
setpoint value is controlled by the profiler function.
Actual Setpoint
Actual Setpoint is the effective current value of the active setpoint. This will be different to the 
Active Setpoint’s target value if the setpoint is ramping. The actual setpoint will rise or fall at 
the ramp-rate set, until it reaches its target setpoint value. During Profiler Control, the Actual 
Setpoint value is controlled by the profiler function.
Alarm Configuration
A sub-menu of Configuration Mode used to adjust the alarm parameters. (Alarm types, 
values, hysteresis and inhibiting).
Alarm Hysteresis
An adjustable band through which the process variable must pass before the alarm will 
change state. This Hysteresis is only applicable to alarms based on the Process Value or 
Control Deviation, as illustrated below. The band is always on the “safe” side of an alarm 
point, e.g. a high alarm’s hysteresis band is below the high alarm value, and a low alarm’s 
hysteresis is above the low alarm value. Rate Of Change Alarms have a different type of 
hysteresis based on the length of time the rate is above the threshold.
Settings = 1 LSD to full span from the setpoint.
