Service Mode / Parameter Level 11.7.5 I-Portion / I-Limit Integral step: setting range 1 … 1000 General: An I-controller (integrating controller) determines the output value by integrating the control deviation with weighting by the reset time. A continuous control deviation therefore leads to a further increase of the control output.
