Reverse and Direct Action
To configure the block output action, set the Direct
Acting control option. This option defines the
relationship between a change in PV [7] and the
corresponding change in output. With Direct Acting
enabled (True), an increase in PV results in an
increase in the output.
You can set control options in Manual or Out of
Service mode only.
Alarm Detection
A block alarm will be generated whenever the
BLOCK_ERR [6] has an error bit set. The types of
block error for the PID block are defined above.
Process alarm detection is based on the PV [7] value.
You can configure the alarm limits of the following
standard alarms:
D High (HI_LIM [51])
D High high (HI_HI_LIM [49])
D Low (LO_LIM [53])
D Low low (LO_LO_LIM [55])
Additional process alarm detection is based on the
difference between SP [8] and PV [7] values and can
be configured via the following parameters:
D Deviation high (DV_HI_LIM [57])
D Deviation low (DV_LO_LIM [59])
116
In order to avoid alarm chattering when the variable is
oscillating around the alarm limit, an alarm hysteresis
in percent of the PV span can be set using the
ALARM_HYS [47] parameter. The priority of each
alarm is set in the following parameters:
D HI_PRI [50]
D HI_HI_PRI [48]
D LO_PRI [52]
D LO_LO_PRI [54]
D DV_HI_PRI [56]
D DV_LO_PRI [58]
Alarms are grouped into five levels of priority, as
shown in table 4-30.

Priority Description

0
The alarm is disabled
An alarm condition with a priority of 1 can be recognized
1
by the system. The device monitors the alarm but does
not report it until requested by the host system.
An alarm condition with a priority of 2 is reported to the
2
operator, but generally does not require operator attention
(such as diagnostics and system alerts).
Alarm conditions of priority 3 to 7 are advisory alarms of
3−7
increasing priority.
Alarm conditions of priority 8 to 15 are critical alarms of
8−15
increasing priority.
1. The priority classes "advise" and critical" have no relationship to Plant Web Alerts.
Application Information
The PID function block is a powerful, flexible control
algorithm that is designed to work in a variety of
control strategies. The PID block is configured
differently for different applications.
DeltaV Tune
DeltaV Tune quickly and automatically determines
optimal tuning parameters for PID control loops. For
more information on DeltaV Tune, refer to DeltaV
Books Online or DeltaV documentation.
