1. Summary
This document contains a detailed description of the following Loop objects:

– PIDCtrl

– PIDAdvCtrl

– RatioCtrl

– SplitRange

Loop objects are normally used in combination with:

– Analog Input (AIS)

– Group (Group, GrpCycleCtrl)

– Preselection Binary (Prebin))

– Consumer Objects (Actuator, MOT1_VVVF)

1.1. Loop Control connection

A structured Datatype LoopControlData is available with all Loop Objects and several Con-
sumer Objects, for building analog Control Loops with one Single Connection between
Blocks.

LoopControlData is split into Data transferred Forward, e.g. the Setpoint from PIDCtrl to
MOTP, and Backward, e.g. the Actuator Position. To have basic compatibility with the Stand-
ard Libraries, the Control Part of Type ControlConnection is defined as additional Level with
its own Forward/Backward Part.

Following Figure shows an example for a Cascade PID Loop with two Actuators in SplitRange
Configuration. Besides the Group and I/O Parameter Connections, only Connections of type
LoopControlConnection need to be used, e.g. to connect the Setpoint from PIDAdvCtrl at
OUTCC to the SplitRange In Port and from the SplitRange Out1 and Out2 to the External Set-
point Reference Input on the Actuator Blocks:

Parameters of Type LoopControlConnection can only be connected from one Block producing
an Analog Setpoint or Value, e.g. a PIDAdvCtrl, to a Consumer of an Analog Setpoint, e.g. an
Actuator. The Consumer can itself have Output Parameters of Type LoopControlConnection,
connected to other Consumers, e.g. for a Cascade Control Loop, but there must never be a
Feedback Loop Connection in the Control Application.

LoopControlConnections can be transferred via Communication Variables between

Diagrams and Applications. There is however no inbuilt error handling for the
Blocks connected via LoopControlConnection in case of Signal Error (Timeout for
the transfer of the Communication Variable), but this must be added in the Application Logic.

Range and Unit of the Setpoint can be transferred in both directions, where the Forward Di-
rection always takes priority if the Values differ. PIDCtrl and RatioCtrl Blocks allow to over-
write the Range and Unit for the Output from the Faceplate as well.

The Actuator Position is transferred backwards as well and shown in the Faceplate for infor-
mation to the Operator as well. Range and Unit for the Actuator Position are always defined
equal to the Output Range and Unit.

Backtracking is an important Feature of the LoopControlConnection Concept. A Setpoint

Consumer always transmits the actually used Value in reverse direction so that the producer
can adjust for the Situation, to enable bumpless transfer between the Modes and Anti-
windup function in PIDAdvCtrl Control Loops.

Navigation between the Blocks connected by LoopControlConnection is available for the Op-
erator in the Faceplate. Any Alarm State of the Actuator with corresponding Color is shown
for the related Output Value in the Controller Faceplate as well.

1.1.1. Backtracking Examples

Weighfeeder Speed Control by PIDCtrl:

Figure 2 - PIDCtrl Connection with MOT1VVVF

While the Weighfeeder is stopped (or tripped, local etc.), the PIDCtrl can stay in Auto Mode
but keeps the Weighfeeders’ Start Speed Setpoint (can be configured on the Weighfeeder as
constant, last Setpoint while running or set from the Application Logic). The Output of the
PIDCtrl will start changing again from the Start Speed Setpoint as soon as the Weighfeeder is
running again.

If the PIDCtrl is in Manual Mode (Output Reference given in PIDCtrl Setpoint), Backtracking
can either overwrite the Manual Output Reference, or the PIDCtrl ignores the Backtracking
and continues with the given Reference Setpoint, depending on the “Man Backtracking” Op-
tion set in the Faceplates “OUT Limits” Tab.

2. PIDCtrl

2.1. Basic Description

The Control Module Type PIDCtrl is used as a loop PID controller with proportional, integra-
tion time and derivation time parameters that can be tuned manually or automatically. It also
contains a CON_PU Pulse Controller for 3-state control.

The PIDCtrl module for closed loop control, has the following options:

– Auto tuning of control parameters P, I and D

– Feed forward control

– Anti wind up and limited Backtracking support

– 2 external set point references, that can be written from the application

– 2 external controller output references, that can be written from the application

– Limit supervision of measured value and deviation, with integrated alarm annunciation

– Alarm and event handling with 3 alarm priorities

– Set point high and low limitation

– Controller output high and low limitation

– Event logging for control mode changes and set point changes

– Balancing mode in case of Signal Error

– FF (Foundation Fieldbus) support: set FF Device to Cascade Mode automatically when re-
quested from faceplate or from the FF Function Block.

– Status of MV, ActuatorPos and OUTP signals. All Substatus for DP, PA and FF Field Devices
will generate error control when quality is Bad or Uncertain for MV and OUTP

– Threshold detection and eventing on 2 Process Limit levels (PLow, PHigh)

– Alarm disabling/enabling of each alarm limit individually (from application program /

Faceplate); generating events when blocked.

– Minerals Library Process Control Connection (PCC)

• Parameterized interlocks towards parent objects (MV and Deviation Limits)

• Advanced alarm disabling from parent objects

– Operator Station Interface (graphic element and faceplate) including detailed alarm and
interlock indications, separated between the object and its TagName

2.2. Control
2.2.1. Library location
The Control Module Type for PIDCtrl is located in the library BMIStandard, its corresponding
Structured Data Types are defined in BMIConstAndVar.

STATUS SECURITY LEVEL DOCUMENT ID. REV. LANG. PAGE

Approved Public 3BHS161562-612 D en 11/96

2.2.2. Modes
The PIDCtrl module has 2 different control modes Manual and Automatic, these modes are
selectable from the operator station. Additionally, a Balancing Mode is provided to handle Er-
ror State which is automatically triggered by Signal Error depending on the Configuration.

The different control modes are:

Man: Loop Open

The controller output is set either from the operator station, via the faceplate (OUT) or from
the superior application program (E1M or E2M).

Auto: Loop Closed

The controller output is calculated according to the deviation between the set point and the
measured value, which means that the PID controller is regulating.

Set point can either be set from the operator station, via the faceplate (SP) or from the supe-
rior application program (E1A or E2A).

While the PIDCtrl Module supports external Setpoints from the Application Logic, it
can not be used for Cascade Control Loops because of Limitations in the Back-
tracking support. For Cascade Control Loops, the PIDAdvCtrl Module shall be used
instead.

Balancing: Signal Error

The controller output is set to the Balancing Reference Value, in case the Process Feedback
Measured Value or the Output Signal is in Error, or from the Application Logic. By Default, Bal-
ancing Mode is kept for 10 seconds only, this can be changed with the Project Constant
cBMI.PID1.ClampToBalWhileSigErr, to stay in Balancing Mode until the Signal Quality is ok
again.

2.2.3. Automatic Alarm Disabling with PCC

The MV and Deviation Alarms are automatically disabled depending on the PCC Parent state.
The Project Constant cBMI.Std_Type is used to configure the behaviour.

cBMI.Std_Type: 0

Motor is not running, NC Valve is closed, NO Valve is Open, for PCC connected to Group: if
Group is not started

cBMI.Std_Type: 1

Same as Std_Type 0 but always alarm on all Objects if Group is started and Consumer prese-
lected. In case object is standby preselected alarm priority is automatically reduced from Fail-
ure to Warning.

PCCAEListFrcEn = true

Automatic alarm disabling switched off. This option shall be used in cases a signal has to
alarm independent from the status of its parent.

2.2.4. Diagram Graphical Representation

The default view is shown, it’s possible to modify the visible ports in CBM.

2.2.8. Behavior of PIDCtrl with MV Signal Error

Default Behavior in case of Signal Error (IO.Out.SigErr set) is to apply Balance Mode and
BalRef is applied to the Output. The Parameters SigErrBalCtrl and AfterBalMode can be used
to configure the behaviour.

For (forced) setting PCC Interlocks with Signal Error, use MV_ErrCtrl and MV_ErrVal instead.
Note that the Error Value will be applied internally for the MV Value only, and not written out-
side to the MV Parameter unlike the AIS behaviour with ErrCtrl and ErrVal Parameters.

2.2.9. PCC Interlock Limitations for PIDCtrl

PIDCtrl supports the PCC Interlocks according the Description in the Manual for Basic Ob-
jects with the following exceptions>

PIDCtrl is not supporting the Option “Fast” assigned to MV limits and Deviation limits. If any
IntlkDir is configured with “Fast” (e.g. DirXFast, DirFBXFast), the Interlock will onlz work as
configured without Fast.

“Fast” interlock direction option will be removed from H2, H1, Phi, Plo, L1, L2, DEVH and DEVL
limits as in following example:

STATUS SECURITY LEVEL DOCUMENT ID. REV. LANG. PAGE

Approved Public 3BHS161562-612 D en 24/96

Figure 6 - PID Block Limitation

The “noAck” interlock direction option does not change the behavior for Phi and Plo limits
since these limits do not support Alarms, so no Acknowledge is needed for these Interlocks
to release in the standard configuration already.

2.3. Operation
Four graphic elements are available for the PIDCtrl:

PIDCtrl Displays object control information and up to 4 controller

values. Allows direct entry of set-point and manual out-
put.

Presentation

To change the PIDCtrl presentation in common, change the Common NG Properties as de-
scribed in MinLib Overview Getting Started Configuration (3BHF004109).

However, it is possible to change the settings per graphic item individual: Set the Customize
property value to true, to enable the Customize properties. If Customize is false, the Custom-
ize properties (EnableDescription, EnableStatus, EnableTagName, EnableValue#Ind) have no
impact on the graphic item.

Figure 26 - PID Modes

Reference Table, Par_PU2

Par_PU2 Description

Con Pu In this mode, a three state controller intended to control, by mean of pulses (increase, de-
crease), a process via an integrating actuator such as a shifting motor or a solenoid valve.

Time Based In this mode, the Actuator Position is simulated according to the travel time. If limit switches
are reached or WorkingSetpoint is on the upper or lower limit, the ActuatorPosition is adap-
tative corrected. This mode works fine in cases where a PID control in Auto Mode is used as
Working setpoint.

Fix Pulse In this mode, increase and decrease may be manually controlled by 3 buttons (Inc, Dec, Stop)
in the faceplate. Pulses with length of 1% of travel time and period of 3% of travel time are
sent to the IO’s as long as increment or decrement is active. This mode is preferably used in
cases where INC/DEC are directly connected to the PID (e.g. speed controlled drives)

Inc Connection to boolean signal for increasing the setpoint

Dec Connection to boolean signal for decreasing the setpoint

Stop Stop increase / decrease

When the ConPu modes are changed from the faceplate, you must take into consideration
that these values will be overwritten again with the initial values when a cold restart / reset is
performed and the coldretain files are not available for the corresponding controller.

To avoid this, you need to update the initial values for the corresponding PIDCtrl control mod-
ule instance with Control Builder, after changing the values from the Faceplate.

STATUS SECURITY LEVEL DOCUMENT ID. REV. LANG. PAGE

Approved Public 3BHS161562-612 D en 50/96

These are accessible via 2 buttons in the faceplate.

Figure 28 - Alarm & Event list buttons

For the PIDCtrl the events that are tracked are for example, the mode changes (manual, auto,
auto external 1, auto external 2, manual external 1, manual external 2, balance mode), forced
conditions and actual value tracking which depends on the mode selection.

– Notice that the list you open from the faceplate will show only the alarms and events of
that PIDCtrl.

As an example, the following events happened in the PIDCtrl tag PID_09C_01.

Figure 29 - Event List

– Manual mode was selected with Out value in 10.0

– Out value was changed from 10 --> 35.0

– Mode was changed from Manual to Auto with setpoint at 45.0

– Setpoint value was changed from 45.0 --> 55.0

– External Auto Mode 1 was selected with IO.In.ExtRefAuto1 in 50.0

– External Auto Mode 2 was selected with IO.In.ExtRefAuto2 in 60.0

– External Manual Mode 1 was selected with IO.In.ExtRefMan1 in 10.0

– External Manual Mode 2 was selected with IO.In.ExtRefMan2 in 20.0

Notice that the structure of the event message is always the same.

For the alarm list, differently from the event list, shows only the active alarm. This means that
when all alarm conditions are off the list will be blank.

The severity of the alarm can be changed thru the following parameters:

– MV_Lim2Tr: Alarm treatment for L2 and H2 limits

STATUS SECURITY LEVEL DOCUMENT ID. REV. LANG. PAGE

Approved Public 3BHS161562-612 D en 51/96

– MV_Lim1Tr: Alarm treatment for L1 and H1 limits

– MV_PLimTr: Alarm treatment for Process (PHi and PLo) limit

– DevTr: Alarm treatment for deviation limit

Following the same rule for Analog/Digital input and output objects, the following rule is
valid for the alarm treatment:

– 3 (default): Not acknowledged alarm

– 2: Not acknowledged warning

– 1: Warning auto acknowledged

Notice that alarms for the PIDCtrl are created only in the following cases:

– Two levels detection for the measured value

– Process limit detection

– Deviation alarm, where it calculates the deviation from the actual setpoint to the meas-
ured value and checks if this value is higher than the limit defined in the faceplate over
Lim2 tab.

Object Status and Modes

Object status and modes are presented on the event list. Whenever the object changes its
status or mode the complete information of the object at the time of the change is logged in
the event list.

The PIDCtrl event message has a dynamic structure, this means that it can change depending
on the case you have.

The first case regards to mode changes. When a mode is changed from one type to the other,
and event is set and the structure for that case is the following:

[MODE] + [Backtrack] + Value: + [MODE VALUE]

[MODE] Description

Aut Auto mode selected

Man Manual mode selected

E1M External Manual 1 mode selected

E1M External Manual 2 mode selected

E1A External Auto 1 mode selected

E2A External Auto 1 mode selected

Bal Balance Mode selected

Backtracking is shown if the Object is in Backtracking status, otherwise this Field is skipped.

The MODE VALUE depends on which mode the Object currently is in. This means that when
you select a specific mode the event message will show the value that is relevant for that
mode, which are

[MODE VALUE] Description

Value for Aut Auto setpoint value set from the faceplate

Value for Man Actual output value from its last mode

Value for E1M External Reference value (IO.In.ExtRefMan1)

STATUS SECURITY LEVEL DOCUMENT ID. REV. LANG. PAGE

Approved Public 3BHS161562-612 D en 52/96

Value for E2M External Reference value (IO.In.ExtRefMan2)

Value for E1A External Reference value (IO.In.ExtRefAuto1)

Value for E2A External Reference value (IO.In.ExtRefAuto2)

Value for Bal BalRef value as defined in the module parameters

The second case for events means when the relevant value for the mode changes. So for ex-
ample, an event is created when new setpoint value is set in Auto mode. In this case the event
message has the following structure:

[MODE] + Value: + [OLD VALUE] -> [NEW VALUE]

In this case the same modes described right before are valid. Also OLD VALUE and NEW
VALUE is the value relevant for the specific active mode.

The third case for eventing is when some limit value is changed for some limits from the face-
plate. In this case the structure for the event message is the following:

[LIMIT SHORT NAME] + Value: + [OLD VALUE] -> [NEW VALUE]

[LIMIT SHORT NAME] Description

L1 Low limit 1

L2 Low limit 2

H1 High limit 1

H2 High limit 2

PHi Process limit high

PLo Process limit low

The OLD VALUE and NEW VALUE corresponds to the old and new Limit value itself.

The next case is when some limit is blocked from the faceplate. The structure for the event
message is the following:

Limit Blk: + [LIMIT NAME]

[LIMIT NAME] Description

MV_L1 Low limit 1 is blocked

MV_L2 Low limit 2 is blocked

MV_H1 High limit 1 is blocked

MV_H2 High limit 2 is blocked

MV_PHi Process limit high is blocked

MV_PLo Process limit low is blocked

The next and last case of our possible cases for events in PIDCtrl is when we have a forced
condition for the MV value. In this case three types of messages are possible:

– When the Forced flag is selected the message is:

– FRC Value: [VALUE]

– Where value is the actual value set for the MV value.

– When the Forced selection is undone the message is:

– FRC Deselected

STATUS SECURITY LEVEL DOCUMENT ID. REV. LANG. PAGE

Approved Public 3BHS161562-612 D en 53/96

– Or when MV value is changed under forced condition, the message is:

– FRC Value: [OLD VALUE] -> [NEW VALUE]

Alarm Messages

The PIDCtrl has 3 main causes for alarm messages

– Limit H2 or L2

– Limit H1 or L1

– Deviation High or Low

Notice that Process Limit (Plim) does not create any alarm. The maximum indication treat-
ment for the Process Limit is 0 (Event) as described in the parameter description in Control
Builder.

For the alarm limits the message will look like:

[LIMIT TYPE]: [LIMIT VALUE]

[LIMIT TYPE] Description

L1 Low limit 1 is reached

L2 Low limit 2 is reached

H1 High limit 1 is reached

H2 High limit 2 is reached

PHi Process limit high is reached

PLo Process limit low is reached

Dev High Deviation limit between MV (measured value) and SP (setpoint) is higher than defined over

3.2.5. Tracking Options for Setpoint

There are several Options available as Parameters (with “PID_” Prefix, for Cold Init only, they
can be overwritten from the Faceplate), to define the behaviour of the Setpoint on Mode
change. Per default, all the Tracking Options are set true for complete bumpless operation.
For External Setpoints, bumpless Operation requires the LCC connection for the External
Auto Setpoint to support Backtracking. For the External Manual Modes, there is no LCC con-
nection and no inbuilt tracking possibility.

OUT Value MOUTPTracking (Man MOUTPTracking MOUTPTracking

Tracking OUT)

Auto Setpoint ASP Tracking ASP Tracking Ext Auto ASP Tracking

Ext Auto Ref Backtracking Backtracking Backtracking

(Value=MV) (Value=WSP) (Value=MV)

Ext Man Ref none none none

3.2.6. Behavior with Out LCC

In Auto Mode, the OUT Value follows the Backtracking Value and Control and Ramping will
therefore start from the Backtracking Value again always.

For the OUT Value in Manual Mode, the “Man Backtracking” Option decides if the internal Set-
point Value is tracking the Backtracking Value from OUTCC while in state Backtracking, other-
wise the OUT Value is kept on the current Setpoint.

For Min Reached / Max Reached state, in addition to the Backtracking behaviour the Out
Value is limited to the Backtracking Value as well.

used as initial Values for the Auto-Tuning which can speed up the Tuning Process

Max relay amp Restrict the maximum change of the Output during Auto-tuning (for Relay method)

Max SP step Restrict the maximum change of the Setpoint during Auto-tuning (for Step method)

Warning time The PIDAdvCtrl will issue a Warning if the Auto-tuning process doesn’t finish in the con-
figured time

Max sample time The maximum Task Cycle Time the Control Loop should be executed, this equals 1/8 of
the Process Oscillation Time determined by the Autotuning

4.1.6. Behavior with Out LCC

The RatioCtrl Block is located in the middle of a Control Loop. In order for Backtracking to
work in Auto Mode, both the Input (connected to IN via LCC) and the Consumer of the

STATUS SECURITY LEVEL DOCUMENT ID. REV. LANG. PAGE

Approved Public 3BHS161562-612 D en 81/96

Setpoint (connected to OUT) need to support Backtracking as well. In Manual Mode, Back-
tracking can be controlled via the “Man Backtracking” Option from the Faceplate.

Backtracking

The internal Value is initialized with the Backtracking Value, Ramp and Filter will therefore
start from the Backtracking Value again. Note that the RatioCtrl will apply the Filter and
Ramp independent of the Input supporting Backtracking, in order to allow implementing
Bumpless behavior for Loops without Backtracking by connecting a RatioCtrl in between. In
case the Output Object is Backtracking, the Output Value can therefore deviate from the cal-
culated Output with the Input Value.

In Manual mode, while the “Man Backtracking” Option is set the Manual Setpoint will track
the Backtracking Value, otherwise the Backtracking Value is ignored.

Min Reached / Max Reached

In addition to the Backtracking behavior, the Out Value is limited to the Backtracking Value as
well.

5.1.6. Backtracking Behavior

The Control Module has no internal state and can only allow Backtracking if the Object con-
nected to “In” via LCC supports Backtracking.

If only one of the Outputs is in Backtracking, the In will be limited to the configured Range of
the still working Output (Min Reached / Max Reached is sent if outside the Range), independ-
ent of the Backtracking Value of the Output.

If both Outputs are in Backtracking, the Value of Out1, scaled to the corresponding input
value, is sent for Backtracking to In, while Out2 is ignored. In this situation, if Out2 is released
(not Backtracking anymore) while Out1 is still Backtracking, the Backtracking Value is modi-
fied to keep Out2 Value continuous.
