Commissioning Software Controller; Save Optimized Pid Parameter In The Project - Siemens SIMATIC S7-1200 Function Manual

Result
The complete PLC program is downloaded to the device. Blocks that only exist online in the
device are deleted. By downloading all affected blocks and by deleting any blocks in the
device that are not required, you avoid inconsistencies between the blocks in the user

Save optimized PID parameter in the project

The software controller is optimized in the CPU. Through this, the values in the instance-DB
on the CPU no longer agree with those in the project.
To update the PID parameter in the project with the optimized PID parameters, proceed as
follows:
Requirement
● An online connection to the CPU is established and the CPU is in "RUN" mode.
● The functions of the commissioning window have been enabled by means of the "Start"
button.
Procedure
1. Open the CPU folder in the project tree.
2. Open the "Technology objects" folder.
3. Open a technology object.
4. Double click on "Commissioning".
5. Click on the
6. Save the project.
Result
The currently active PID parameters are stored in the project data. When reloading the
project data in the CPU, the optimized parameters are used.
