is slowed (1). If stabilization of disturbances is speeded up, on the other
hand,
overshooting occurs and response toward the target value is slowed (2).
With feed-forward PID control, there is no overshooting, and response toward
the target value and stabilization of disturbances can both be speeded up (3).

As the target response is slowed,
the disturbance response worsens.
As the disturbance response is
slowed, the target response worsens.

Control Operations Proportional Operation (P)
Proportional operation is an operation in which a proportional band is estab-
lished with respect to the set value (SV), and within that band the operation
amount
(the control output amount) is made proportional to the
deviation. If the
present value (PV) is smaller than the proportional band, the
operation
amount
will be 100%. If within the proportional band the operation amount
is made pro
-
portional to the deviation and gradually decreased until the SV and PV match
(i.e.,
until the deviation is 0), the operation
amount will return to the previous val
-
ue (forward operation).
The
proportional band is expressed as a percentage with
respect to the total in

put
range. With proportional operation an
of
fset (residual deviation) occurs, and
the
of
fset is reduced by making the proportional band smaller
. If it is made
too
small, however, hunting will occur.

amount to reach the same level as the proportional operation amount with re-

integral
time, the stronger the correction by the integral operation will be. If the
