  • Blog Post: Commissioning Control Systems – Selection of Control Structure

    Terry Blevins and Greg McMillan
    Most control systems allow the user to pick the components, also known as the structure of the PID algorithm, that will be used in a control application. In some cases, this is done by providing different control blocks for P, PI, or PID. However, some ...read more

  • Blog Post: Distributed Control Systems’ Implementation of Mode

    Terry Blevins
    To ease operator transition from panel-based systems to monitor-based systems, the manner in which first generation Distributed Control Systems (DCS) displayed information often mimicked the way this information had earlier appeared on the control panel. Since the control interface provided by the control...

  • Blog Post: Mode – The Role of Status

    Terry Blevins
    As the ISA50 function block team considered how to improve plant operations through a more comprehensive implementation of mode in the control system, they realized it would be important that the control blocks, such as the PID, be designed to automatically take into account up-steam and downstream conditions...

  • Blog Post: Mode – Bumpless Transfer

    Terry Blevins
    As an operator changes the mode of a function block, it is important that this change not cause a sudden change in plant operation. In the ISA50 mode implementation, the status in the backward path plays an important role in providing bumpless transfer. For example, the actual mode of an analog output...

  • Blog Post: Mode Structure

    Terry Blevins
    The PID block mode parameter as originally defined by ISA50 determines the source of the block setpoint and the source of its output. This mode parameter is structure to contain four attributes: Target – The mode of operation requested by the operator Actual – The mode of operation that may be achieved...
