SP
The control loop or process set point.
Set using process variable counts, the
PID function adjusts the output
control variable so that the process
variable matches the set point (zero
error).
INT, BOOL array of
length 16 or more,
Constant
All except S, SA, SB,
and SC
No
PV
Process Variable input from the
process being controlled. Often a %AI
input.
INT, BOOL array of
length 16 or more
All except S, SA, SB,
SC and constant
No
MAN

contact), the PID function block is in
manual mode. If this input is 0, the
PID block is in automatic mode.
BOOL, Power Flow
All
No
UP
If energized along with MAN,
increases the control variable by 1 CV
count per solution of the PID function
block.
BOOL, Power Flow
All
No
DN
If energized along with MAN,
decreases the control variable by 1
CV count per solution of the PID
function block.
BOOL, Power Flow
