The diagram below illustrates the integration of the parameters into the PID algorithm:
All PID parameters are retentive. If you enter the PID parameters manually, you must

The value specifies the proportional gain of the controller. PID_3Step does not work with a
negative proportional gain. Control logic is inverted under Basic settings > Controller type.
The integration time determines the time behavior of the integral action. The integral action is
deactivated with integration time = 0.0.
The derivative action time determines the time behavior of the derivative action. Derivative
action is deactivated with derivative action time = 0.0.
Derivative delay coefficient
The derivative delay coefficient delays the effect of the derivative action.
