"Manual" mode V1

The following section describes how you can use the "Manual" operating mode in the
commissioning window of the "PID Compact" technology object.
Requirement
● The "PID_Compact" instruction is called in a cyclic interrupt OB.
● An online connection to the CPU has been established and the CPU is in the "RUN"
mode.
● The functions of the commissioning window have been enabled via the "Start" icon.
Procedure
Use "Manual mode" in the commissioning window if you want to test the process by
specifying a manual value. To define a manual value, proceed as follows:
1. Select the check box "Manual mode" in the "Online status of the controller" area.
PID_Compact operates in manual mode. The most recent current output value remains in
effect.
2. Enter the manual value in the "Output" field as a % value.
3. Click the control icon
Result
The manual value is written to the CPU and immediately goes into effect.
Note
PID_Compact continues to monitor the process value. If the process value limits are
exceeded, PID_Compact is deactivated.
Clear the "Manual mode" check box if the output value is to be specified again by the PID
controller. The change to automatic mode is bumpless.
