Modes
The PID function block supports the following modes:
D Manual (Man)—The block output (OUT [9]) may be set manually.
D Automatic (Auto)—The SP [8] may be set manually and the block algorithm calculates OUT [9].
D Cascade (Cas)—The SP [8] is calculated in another block and is provided to the PID block through the CAS_IN [18]
connection.
D RemoteCascade (RCas)—The SP [8] is provided by a host computer that writes to the RCAS_IN [32] parameter.
