Hello!
I need to control a sinter moisture in a mixing drum. I have a moisture meter with analog output 4-20 mA connected to analog input of PLC and a control valve on a water pipeline for pouring water into mixing drum . The control valve has two inputs (open/close commands) and an analog feedback signal of its current position (4-20 mA, also connected to PLC analog input).
I use a standard PID instruction in RSLogix 5000. But it has only analog output, so please help me and give any advice how could I convert control value signal of my PID into open/close commands for the valve.
My PLC is ControlLogix 1756-L83.
Thanks in advance!!!
Best regards, Oleksandr
