15.2.4 PID flag
The parameter set by the XGB series built-in PID control function is saved into the flash memory of
the basic unit. Such parameters are moved to K area for the built-in PID function as soon as PLC
turns from STOP to RUN mode. PID control operation by PID control command is executed through K
area data for PID functions. Therefore, if a user changes the value in the trend monitor window or
variable monitor window during operation, PID operation is executed by the changed value. At the
moment, if PLC is changed to RUN again after being changed to STOP, it loads the parameters in
flash memory to K area, so the data changed in K area is lost. Thus, to keep applying the parameters
adjusted in K area, it is necessary to write the parameter set in K area to flash memory by using WRT
command. (In case of IEC, APM_WRT)
