I was trying to use the dummy approach first, but you guys are rough.. Anyway... I know what Proportional Integral Derivative loop is mathematically and how it works conceptually ok. I also know that for the application I want, I will only need the Proportionality part of the PID, I want to use the Loop to help me read pressure and temperature from sensors. The pressure sensor/transmitter is a WIKA brand that reads Vacuum up to -30inHg and pressure up to 30psig; it has three-wire connection with a fourth wire for a shielded connection.
my set point for the pressure sensor will be -5inHg therefore the output of my loop should be 0 correct?
How can I program the PID loop using the DirectSOFT32 software from Automation Direct? this is what I did so far: Algorithm: Positional, Forward acting; Transfer mode: bumpless I;config: 12-bit bipolar common format; the problem is what format do I write the tuning part for the gain/bias
