27.3 Pulse Generation with SFB 43/FB 43 "PULSEGEN"
Introduction
SFB 43 "PULSEGEN" (pulse generator) is used to structure a PID controller with
pulse output for proportional actuators. The electronic manual is found under
Documentation > English > STEP7 PID Control.
Application
Using SFB/FB "PULSEGEN," PID two or three step controllers with pulse duration
modulation can be configured. The function is normally used in conjunction with the
continuous controller "CONT_C."

Note
The calculation of the values in the control blocks is only correct if the block is
called at regular intervals. For this reason, you should call the control blocks in a
cyclic interrupt OB (OB30 to OB38). Enter the sampling time in the CYCLE
parameter.
