Automatic Tuning
In tuning, you match the characteristics (PID parameters) of the controller to those of the process
being controlled in order to obtain good control. Good control means:
Stable, ‘straight-line’ control of the PV as set point without fluctuation.
No overshoot or undershoot, of the PV set point.
Quick response to deviations from the set point caused by external disturbances, thereby
rapidly restoring the PV to the set point value.
Tuning involves calculating and setting the value of the parameters listed in the table below.
The PID controller consists of the following parameters:
