3.6 Manual self-tuning
The optimization aid can be used with units on which the control parameters shall
be set without self-tuning.
For this, the response of process variable x after a step change of correcting varia
-
ble y can be used. Frequently, plotting the complete response curve (0 to 100%)
is not possible, because the process must be kept within defined limits. Values T
g
and x
max
(step change from 0 to 100 %) or ∆t and ∆x (partial step response) can
be used to determine the maximum rate of increase v

.
