Solutions

This problem can be addressed by:

  • Initialising the controller integral to a desired value
  • Increasing the setpoint in a suitable ramp
  • Disabling the integral function until the to-be-controlled process variable (PV) has entered the controllable region
  • Preventing the integral term from accumulating above or below pre-determined bounds

Famous quotes containing the word solutions:

    Football strategy does not originate in a scrimmage: it is useless to expect solutions in a political compaign.
    Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

    Every man is in a state of conflict, owing to his attempt to reconcile himself and his relationship with life to his conception of harmony. This conflict makes his soul a battlefield, where the forces that wish this reconciliation fight those that do not and reject the alternative solutions they offer. Works of art are attempts to fight out this conflict in the imaginative world.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not.
    Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
