PID Setpoint Profile using Minutes Instead of Seconds

Solved!
Go to solution

The standard input for the PID setpoint profile VI is in seconds.  Is there a way to change it so that you can input a profile in minutes?

You can multiply your minutes with 60

Yes, I wanted to avoid adding code to do this for all of the parts of my cluster but it works.  I was hoping someone might know of a modified PID subvi that allowed you to input minutes etc.  Thanks.

Yes, you can use the VI:

 

<labview 8.5 and higher>\examples\control\pid\prctrlex.llb\subVIs\Convert PID Parameters.vi

 

This VI allow you to convert any PID parameters and structures to the parameters used by our PID algorithm. There you can use 'seconds' as unit.
