Different programmable logic controllers (PLCs) handle PID control loops in different ways. Some loops need to be set manually, while others can use an autotune process embedded in the PLC's software.

The output of the process, the process variable (PV), is the input to the PID controller. The two most common of these complex dynamic responses are the “self-regulating, second-order, overdamped” and ...

The PID temperature controller offers setup, control, and multiple output options, making it useful for manufacturing, and ...

If is common to “tune” a PID by setting Kp, Ki, and Kd constants that determine the “strength” of each action. With the beam, you can watch how tuning affects the system. By setting a ...
