Experiment No. 11
Title:
Tuning of PID controller with Controller settings.

Objectives:
i. Perceive the purpose of PID controller.
ii. Detect the method to tune a PID controller with controller settings.

Apparatus Required:
✓ MS-15 DC Motor Module
✓ AS-3 Command Potentiometer
✓ CLIO Interface Module with PC connection leads
✓ System Power supply
✓ 4mm Connection Leads
✓ PC running VCL (Visual Control Laboratory) Software

Procedure:
• Start VCL and load CA06PE09.

• Select Controller | Open Loop and Plant | Process.


• The signal generator should be set to Signal | Step, Level | 30% and Rate | 10 msec.
Once a step had been drawn, freeze the picture and make the measurement - as detailed
overleaf - required for the tuning calculation. Enter each of the measurements into
your workbook.

Output Span - S0
• Measure the output span - the difference between the initial value and steady
statevalue of the output.
• Output span S0 = 3.2 V

• Measure the input span - the difference between the initial value and steady state
valueof the input.
Input Span Si = 3.0 V
• Line of Maximum Slope - Time Constant τ
• Using Line B and Slope controls, determine the line of maximum slope. It might
behelpful to change channel 4 Magnify to 1/2 and Time to x2.

τ= 0.19 s

Time Delay T
T= 0.1 s

Controller Settings:
• The controller settings are then calculated from the table below:

1.78125

1.603 1.32

2.1375 0.8
0.0125
Ziegler-Nichols Setting (Table # 1)

• Calculate (and hence PB %), TI and TD and enter the values in Table 2.

2.13 25% 0.8 0.0125

• Unfreeze the display, restore the controller to PID and use the values calculated as
thecontroller settings.
• Usually both integral and derivative time constants need to be increased.
• Try setting TI to 0.5τ and TD to 0.5TI, leaving PB as calculated. This gives a
muchless oscillatory response.
Conclusion:
In this experiment we have learned what vis the purpose of the PID controller and why
weused PID controllers in industry for control purpose.
