5 Function blocks
5.13 DC, PID controller
Control Relay easy800 11/11 MN04902001Z-EN www.eaton.com 189
Operating mode
The operating mode defines the value range of the manipulated variable.
Inputs
I1 and I2: The PID controller setpoint and actual values are set at function
block inputs I1 and I2.
KP: Input KP is used to adjust the control difference to the required
proportional gain.
TN: The value for the reset time T
n
at input TN is used for forming the
integral component.
TV: The value for the rate time T
v
at input TV is used for forming the
differential component.
TC: The value for the scan time T
c
at input TC determines the time intervals
in which the operating system calls the function block for processing. If the
value 0 is set, the cycle time of the device is the pause time between the
function block calls.
MV: The set value of the manual manipulated variable M
v
is output on the
output DC..QV as a manipulated variable during activation of coil DC..SE.
You can assign the following operands to function block inputs I1, I2, KP, TN,
TV, TC and MV:
• Constant.
• Markers MD, MW, MB.
• Analog inputs IA01 to IA04:
• IA01: Terminal I7.
• IA02: Terminal I8.
• IA03: Terminal I11.
• IA04: Terminal I12.
• Analog output QA01.
• Output
…QV of a different function block.
Parameters
Function
UNP Unipolar 12-bit value: 0 to +4095
BIP
Bipolar 13-bit value: (signed 12-bit value) -4096 - +4095
→
The device cycle time varies according to the length of the
program. With a scan time of 0 s, this may cause an irregular
control response.
→
Use the Set cycle time function block
(→ section 5.31, “ST, Set cycle time”, page 253) in order to
keep the cycle time of the device constant.
