Hi,
I am new to Mitsi and I'm working on a project that will use a few PID loops. I do not have the hardware in the office so I am using the simulator to test my code. All is well, except my PID loops do not seem to be executing. I have entered what I believe to be all the parameters required but the MV never moves from zero. What's stranger is, i can force the MV to a value and it doesn't get written back to zero. The routine itself is being processed and the simulator is not in a crashed state. Can PID loops be simulated like this or do I need a physical CPU? I would very much appreciate some help with this. For completeness please see below. Thanks.
PLC:Q series
Software: Gx Works2, Gx Simulator
PID commands: PIDINT and PIDCONT
