Proportional Integral Derivative Instruction 9-19
Control Variable Percent (CV%)
CV% (Control Variable Percent) displays the control variable as a percentage.
The range is 0 to 100%. If the AM bit (word 0, bit 1 of the PID Control Block)
is off (automatic mode), this value tracks the control variable (CV) output
being calculated by the PID equation. If the AM bit is on (manual mode), this
value tracks the value that can be manipulated in the control variable (CV) data
word. If no change is made to the CV while in manual mode, the CV% will
display the last value calculated by the PID equation.
Output Limiting Enable (OL)
A value of one enables output limiting to the values defined in Control
Variable Maximum (Word 11) and Control Variable Minimum (Word 12).
A value of zero disables OL (Output Limiting).
