Parameter, Dynamic
Dynamic parameters of modules, in contrast to static parameters, can be changed
by the user program during operation by calling an SFC, for example, limit values
of an analog module.
Parameter, Static
Static parameters of modules, in contrast to dynamic parameters, cannot be
changed by the user program, but only using STEP 7, for example, the input delay
of a digital input module.
P Algorithm
Algorithm for calculating an output signal in which there is a proportional
relationship between the error signal and manipulated variable change.
Characteristics: steady-state error signal, not to be used with processes including
dead time.
PI Algorithm
Algorithm for calculating an output signal in which the change in the manipulated
variable is made up of a component proportional to the error signal and an I
component proportional to the error signal and time. Characteristics: no steady-
state error signal, faster compensation than with an I algorithm, suitable for all
processes.
PID Algorithm
Algorithm for calculating an output signal formed by multiplication, integration and
differentiation of the error signal. The PID algorithm is a parallel structure.
Characteristics: high degree of control quality can be achieved providing the dead
time of the process is not greater than the other time constants.
