In PWM control, the controller switches the control value according to the value calculated in PI
control, considering the cycle time. The control value is thus converted into pulse width modulation
(PWM).
PWM cycle
The PWM cycle is used for PWM control to calculate the switch-on and switch-off pulse of the
control value. This calculation is based on the calculated control value. A PWM cycle comprises the
total time from the switch-on point to the new switch-on point.
Example:
If a control value of 75% is calculated with a set cycle time of 10 minutes, the control value is
switched on for 7.5 minutes and switched off for 2.5 minutes.
In principle, the slower the overall system, the longer the cycle time can be set.
For PI control switching (PWM), the status can also be output as a percentage value.
