PID Control

[jacklondon]

Hi folks,

any idea how to create a faceplate for a PID? Would be much appreciated…

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

First, it’s needed to implement math algorithm. It is better to develop a module for the Server app.

Then, configure user interface. How do think, to display it?
Do you mean PID like this?

Hi Mikhail,

The PID algorithm is being handled by/in the PLC. I just need to implement the faceplate, for example, if you click on a valve, a popup (browser) window comes up or selects another view (via link?) with the visual PID faceplate and accordingly you can set it to auto/manual modes, show/set the process/setpoint/manual value in the faceplate/component (sending commands to corresponding PLC registers) and show the “level” (via dynamic pictures?)…

As visual (conceptional) examples, https://ibb.co/jWiEGJ

Hi,
The existing Link component allows to redirect to another scheme where you can put needed components. It is planned to add a popup dialogs feature for links in this year.
