Are there any PID blocks available rather than the Toolkit?

[Nishant]

Dear All,

           I want to ask that are there any PID blocks available in LabVIEW or somebody has created which can run without NI hardware?

          We are planning to project on PID but without NI hardware, so we want the PID block which can run without Ni hardware, please provide me if anybody have it.

Thanks in Advance,
Nishant

NI's PID toolkit has nothing to do with their hardware. It is pure software and only uses DBLs as inputs and outputs, so you can use to control any hardware.

They also ship a PID example with LabVIEW even if you don't have the toolkit (check  out the example finder), but I don't know if it will cover what you need. You could also try searching the internet for PID implementations in LV or even coding it yourself, but it will probably cost you much more than simply buying the toolkit.

Hi Nishant,

It is like tst said.

However, what are you trying to do exactly with PID's and why do you choose that as an implementation solution?

Can you describe (are you allowed to??)  ?

Dear Ray,

                       Actually i was using the PID block from the Flex motion in the Ni Measurment, so it requires the Board id, cos they have use the dll file, which i cannot use, else i have got to the simple PID block from the examples.

Thanks to both of you for that, i m looking forward for the further help in PID cos i m new to that, so i ll come back to you.And I am allowed to discuss yaar.....ha ha ha ha ha ha

Thanks,

Nishant

Hi nishanth,

Just forget about that.. here try to get a PID toolkit.. in that you will find the PID bolocks. There is nothing to do with the NI hardware. If u didnt find then come back.
