Using siemens block to control pressure level. The PV is pressure in Bar and the output is vsd fan speed in %. What I require is when the PV is high the fan speed to increase to bring down the pressure. However it's doing the opposite eg increase in pressure = decrease in fan speed. Easy way to solve this is to set a negative gain but the block does not accept that
Help!!!
 
Easiest way to change this is to invert the gain.

If you change the settings in the block itself, make sure you are actually downloading them. It can be a little bit fidgety...
 
You can use an external tag, not the commissioning wizard, to set the gain to negative.
