What This Book
Tells You
A Profit Optimizer (DQP) is a dynamic quadratic programming, multi-input
multi-output (MIMO) optimizer application, that controls and optimizes highly
interactive industrial processes.
Profit Controllers and Optimizers are fully integrated into Honeywell's TPS
automated control system.
This book examines basic multivariable prediction control concepts, then explains
how to use the TPS and the Profit interface (displays) to do the following:
(OPER access)
•Monitor real time processes controlled with Profit Controllers/Optimizers
•Manually give on-line process instructions to the Profit Controllers/
Optimizers
(ENG access)
•Manually enter tuning, optimization, and configuration parameters
•Display and respond to Profit Optimizer messages.
