Anyone have a PID (PI) example that they can share? I have to create an app to control a proportional valve to control chemical flow in a Direct Injection mixing station. We have a sensor downstream that will give feedback of mixed solution in PPM in real time. The PID will actuate the chemical valve...

    Check the 'examples ' folder, and there should be a sample PID program that came with DoMore.

    Oops.

    Yea, that was kinda obvious. I should have checked there first. :/

    Thanks!

    Check the 'examples ' folder, and there should be a sample PID program that came with DoMore. That project works with the Do-more Simulator (a Window's based virtual PLC that comes free with the free Designer software).

    The "Sim " also has a "process simulator " that the example project utilizes, so you can see not just how to configure/program your PID, but you can actually USE it, in RUN mode, on the Sim - without spending a dime on any hardware (try before you buy).

    The "Start Page " for that project (PID1.dmd) steps you through the various features/functions of the process, PLC, Designer (see the attached screen shot). After opening the PID1.dmd project, do View->Start Page to bring it up.
