I had to laugh a bit at your comment on detailed instructions on your home page as I would accuse you of not having detailed instructions on the PID simulator. For example, the lack of description of you abbreviations. On “Define open loop bump test parameters” for example, To me an OP is an Operating Procedure, to you it seems to be an output value. I haven’t fugure out what Controller Lower Range Value and Controller Upper Range Value are. I understand the words but not what they are trying to convey. The PID example is not an example but instructions. Of course EVERY time I look at PID loop tuning information the instructions seem to be missing pieces. I just assume those who know PID well, figure everyone else does, and just miss the critical minor details. It seems to happen every time. Just my two cents worth
Tom: I see the irony and I am glad it made you chuckle.
