5.3.5.4 PI controller
Short description
A PI controller is a proportional-action and integral-action controller. You can use both
proportional action and integral action individually or combined.
Connection Description
Input A/M Set the mode of the controller:
1: automatic mode
0: manual mode
Input R Use the input R to reset the output AQ. As long as this input is set, the input A/M
is disabled. The output AQ is set to 0.
Input PV Analog value: process value, influences the output
Parameter Sensor: Type of sensor being used
Min.: Minimum value for PV
Value range: -10,000 to +20,000
Max.: Maximum value for PV
Value range: -10,000 to +20,000
Gain
Value range: -10.00 to +10.00
Offset
Value range: -10,000 to +10,000
SP: Set-value assignment
Value range: -10,000 to +20,000
Mq: Value from AQ with manual mode.
Value range: 0 to 1,000
Parameter sets: application-related presets for KC, TI and Dir (see below)
KC: Gain
Value range: 00.00 to 99.99
TI: Integral time
Value range 00:01 min to 99:59 min
Dir: Action direction of the controller
Possible settings: + or -
p: Number of decimal places
Possible settings: 0, 1, 2, 3
Output AQ Analog output (manipulated variable)
Value range for AQ: 0 to 1,000
Parameters SP and Mq
The actual value of another already-programmed function can provide the set-value SP and
the value for Mq:
Ⴠ Analog comparator: Ax - Ay
Ⴠ Analog threshold trigger: Ax
Ⴠ Analog amplifier: Ax
Ⴠ Analog multiplexer: AQ
Ⴠ Analog ramp: AQ
Ⴠ Mathematic instruction: AQ
Ⴠ Up/Down counter: Cnt
For the 0BA7 and 0BA8 devices, you can additionally use the actual values of the following
already-programmed functions:
Ⴠ On-delay: Ta
Ⴠ Off-delay: Ta
Ⴠ On-/off-delay: Ta
Ⴠ Retentive on-delay: Ta
Ⴠ Wiping relay(pulse output): Ta
Ⴠ Edge triggered wiping relay: Ta
Ⴠ Asynchronous pulse generator: Ta
Ⴠ Stairway light switch: Ta
Ⴠ Multiple function switch: Ta
Ⴠ Stopwatch: AQ
Ⴠ Analog filter: AQ
Ⴠ Average value: AQ
Ⴠ Max/Min: AQ
Ⴠ Threshold trigger: Fre
You select the required function by the block number.
Timing diagram
The nature, manner and speed with which the AQ changes depends on the parameters KC
and TI. Thus, the course of AQ in the diagram is merely an example. A control action is
continuous; therefore the diagram portrays just an extract.
Description of function
If the input A/M is 0, then the special function issues output AQ with the value that you set
with parameter Mq.
If the input A/M is 1, then automatic mode commences. As the adopted value Mq is an
integral sum, the controller function begins the calculations in accordance with the formulas
given in Control and regulate basics (Page 293). Uss the updated value PV in the formulas:
Sampling time
The sampling time fixs at 500 ms.
Parameter sets
In order to simplify the use of the PI controller, the parameters for KC, TI and Dir are already
given as sets for the following applications:
