AN-XGB-106
This 8 part video series explains the operation, configuration, ladder programming and operator interface use for the PID loops built into the XGB PLC SU Type, M Type and U Type PLCs.
Free XG5000 PLC programming software.
PID Part 1
PID Control Overview
Listen to an overview of a PID control system using oven controls as an example.
PID Part 2
Analog Data Scaling
Learn how the Setpoint Value and Process Value are scaled to operate correctly with the PID control loop's MV output.
PID Part 3
Embedded PID Setup in XG5000
Learn about setup embedded in the LSIS XG5000 programming software.
PID Part 4
Embedded Autotune Setup in XG5000
Explore the PID autotuning setup embedded in the LSIS XG5000 programming software.
PID Part 5
Setting up PID loop parameters
Watch a demonstration on setting up the embedded parameters for operation and autotuning of a PID control loop.
PID Part 6
Using ladder logic to scale and assign PID variables
See the ladder logic used to ensure proper output of the manipulated value (MV) by scaling Setpoint and Process values according to analog inputs.
PID Part 7
Using ladder logic to autotune and operate the PID loop
See the ladder logic used to autotune and operate the PID loop using PID variables.
PID Part 8
Using an HMI to control the PID loop
Learn how to use an operator interface to control the autotuning process of the PID loop. An HMI will operate and monitor operation after autotuning is complete.
