PID Loop Operation (DL450 only)
DL405 User Manual, 4th Edition, Rev. A
The parameters associated with each loop are listed in the following table. The
address offset is in octal, to help you locate specific parameters in a loop table. For
example, if a table begins at V2000, then the location of the reset (integral) term is
Addr+11, or V2011. Do not use the word# to calculate addresses.

* Read data only when alarm enable bit transitions 0 to1, ** Read data only on PLC Mode change,
*** Read on--the--fly means that the content of V--memory can be changed while the PID loop is in operation.
