How to create PID controller ?
Use the Find Examples function to search for the term PID.
You will find numerous examples, you could start with the Simple PID Demo.VI, this sample VI demonstrates the implementation of a simple PID controller and allows for simulation of various different system type.
You can take this VI or many of the other examples VI's on this subject and use them directly, its unlikely you will need another toolkit for simple PID control (see the notes in the demo VI for limitations).
"Description:
The Simple PID Demo VI lets you see how a PID control system works without needing an external system to actually control. Run the VI. Notice with the default values you have a classic first order system reacting to a square wave. Try changing the System Type to 2nd ORDER and notice that the Process Variable does not track the Set Point very well. Try setting P=10, I=6, and D=5. Notice the difference as you tune the system. You can experiment withdifferent Set Point Types and tuning parameters to get a feel for tuning systems. View the help window description of each control for more information about its use."
The toolkit mentioned in this thread is suitable for more specialist control systems, the above should get you going nicely, if not it looks like your in for a baptisim of fire

To coin a phrase.....
Say it with STARS .............
They are, after all free......but thier true value trancends any physical equivalent.....
Glad to be able to help out.
