10.7.2 Controller
Controller structure in Laplace representation
The controller structure of the device comprises set point damping at the input to prevent erratic
changes in the manipulated variable if the set point changes. The difference between the set
point w and the controlled variable (measured value) X results in the control deviation which is
filtered by a neutral zone.
The neutral zone is used to suppress control deviations (e) that are too small. The control
deviation thus filtered is now fed to the actual PID controller which divides into three parts
based on the P (proportional), I (integral) and D (derivative) values (top-down). The integral
section (middle) also comprises an anti-windup mechanism for limiting the integrator. A
low-pass filter is added to the D-section to damp hard D-terms in the manipulated variable. The
sum of the 3 sections produces the internal controller manipulated variable, which is limited
according to the settings (for PID-2s it is limited to -100% to +100%).
The graphic does not illustrate a downstream filter for limiting the rate of change of the
manipulated variable (can be configured in the menu in "Max Y change rate /s").
In the menu do not configure the gain K
p
. Instead configure the reciprocal value, the
proportional band X
p
(K
p
=1/X
p
).
