PID1 alternative feedback and error selection
The description given in PID1 Output (14.001) assumed that PID1 Mode Selector (14.059) = 0 so that PID controller 1 uses its own feedback (FBK1).
It is possible to select alternative configurations that allow various combinations of feedback or error from either PID controller to be used as shown
below.
PID1 Mode Selector (14.059) can be used to select the feedback and error as shown in the table below. It should be noted that PID controller 2 will
operate normally even when its feedback or error has been selected for PID controller 1. However, if PID1 Mode Selector (14.059) is non-zero PID
controller 2 enable is controlled directly by the enable state of PID controller 1.
PID1 Feedback Output Scaling (14.058) can then be used to scale the results. PID1 Feedback Square Root Enable 2 (14.062) can be used in
converting the output of the combined feedback from pressure to flow. It is easier to use a pressure transducer than a flow transducer, and so the
feedback from the transducer needs to be converted from pressure to flow. As flow = Constant x Pressure the square root function can be used in
the conversion.
See PID1 Feedback Output Scaling (14.058).
