Hi everyone. New to RSLogix5000 and learning as much as I can. I'm much more familiar with Omron.
Is it required I select "scaled for pid"(0-16383) as data format for my type j t/c that will be my PV for a PID loop? Or can I select engineering units which would be the range of the thermocouple at -3460F to 21920F?
PLC: L33ER
Card: 1769-IT6
Application:
Nitrogen fed heating element to a tank where parts are dried after processing. (Semi industry)
My max allowed setpoint is 572 degrees F. Would this be the value I put in the CV Max at 100% in the scaling tab? Wouldnt the output need to be driven to 100% when the temp is at 0? Seems backwards.
Thanks for any input!
