In this method, the loop update time of the PID instruction should be set
equal to the timer preset. As in the case of using a periodic task, you should set
the analog input module to produce the process variable at a significantly faster
rate than the loop update time. You should only use the timer method of PID
execution for loops with loop update times that are at least several times longer
than the worst-case execution time for your continuous task.
The most accurate way to execute a PID instruction is to use the real time
sampling (RTS) feature of the 1756 analog input modules. The analog input
module samples its inputs at the real time sampling rate you configure when
you set up the module. When the module's real time sample period expires, it
updates its inputs and updates a rolling timestamp (represented by the
.RollingTimestamp member of the analog input data structure) produced by
the module.
