    Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) block with auto tune The PID block is the key to many control schemes, and it is commonly used. The PID function integrates the errors. If there is difference in process time constants of a primary process and secondary process measurement, then the block can be cascaded if required.

    Execution The Process Value to be controlled is connected to the IN input. The value is passed through a filter, and its time constant is PV_FTIME. The value is then shown as the PV, which is used in conjunction with the SP in the PID algorithm. A PID does not integrate if the limit status of IN input is constant, or if further control action based on the PID error proceeds IN input further towards its active status limit.
  • Page 72 PID Control block is an algorithm that produces an output signal in response to the measured variable and the setpoint.

  • Page 80: Input Selector Block

    Input Selector block The Input Selector block performs maximum, minimum, middle, average and ‘first good’ input selection. The Input Selector block provides selection of up to eight inputs and generates an output based on the selected type of input. The block functions as a rotary position switch, or a validated priority selection based on the use of the first good parameter and the disable_n parameter.

  • Page 81: Figure 13 : Input Selector Schematic Diagram

    Selection Processing • If OP_SELECT is non-zero, the OP_SELECT value determines the selected input, irrespective of the SELECT_TYPE selection. The value of SELECTED is the number of the input used. • If SELECT_TYPE is ‘First Good’, it transfers the value of the first remaining input to the output of the block.

Alarm Types The block supports standard block alarms, (see section 5.2). Status During normal operations, the value and status of the selected input Handling is shown by OUT.

  • Page 85: Integrator Block

    Integrator block The Integrator block integrates a variable as a function of time, and also accumulates the counts from a Pulse Input block. The block is used as a totalizer that counts up until reset or as a batch totalizer that has a setpoint, and the integrated or accumulated value is compared to pre-trip and trip settings.

  • Page 86: Figure 15: Two Rate Inputs

    The usage is as follows: Rate It is used when the variable connected to the input is a rate, that is Kg/s, w, Gal/hour, and so on. This input can come from the rate output OUT of an Analog Input block. Accum It is used when the input comes from the OUT_ACCUM output of a Pulse Input block, which represents a continuous accumulation of pulse counts from a transducer, or from the output of...
  • Page 87 If the input option is Accum The Integrator block determines the number of additional counts from the counter input readings from the last execution. The difference in count is determined as follows: • If the difference between the reading in one cycle and the reading in the preceding cycle is less than 500,000 or greater than (- 500,000), the difference must be taken as the variation.
  • Page 88 Integration of Inputs There are three internal registers used for the totalization: • Total = The net increment is added every cycle, irrespective of the status. • Atotal = The absolute value of the net increment is added every cycle, irrespective of status. •...
  • Page 89 Resetting the totals The block uses a discrete input RESET_IN to reset the internal integration registers. The operator can send a command to reset the same registers by making OP_CMD_INT = RESET. This is a momentary switch that turns-off when the block is evaluated. The option “Confirm Reset” in INTEG_OPTS, if set, prevents another reset from occurring until the value 1 has been written to RESET_CONFIRM.
  • Page 90 When this option is selected, only reverse flows is considered for integration. If there is no reverse flow inputs (whose value is negative), and if one inputs is forward (whose value is positive) the integration continues. Note: If both the inputs are forward, then the integration stops. INTEG_OPTS: 0 (Use uncertain) When this option is selected, the input (IN_1/IN_2) whose status is Uncertain is considered for integration.

    5.10 Signal Characterizer block The Signal Characterizer block describes the input/output relationship for any type of function. The block has two paths, each with an output that is a non-linear function of the corresponding input. The non-linear function is configured based on a single look-up table with 21 arbitrary x-y pairs. To use the block in a control or process signal path, the status of an input is provided to the corresponding output.

    5.11 MAO Block Execution The MAO block provides its eight input parameters to the I/O subsystem. The output function block acts upon the inputs from another function block and passes its output to the LCD Transducer block. However, if an input has a fault state status, the previous value or a user set value (FSTATE_VAL1 - FSTATE_VAL8) is passed depending on the options (MS_OPTS) that have been enabled.
