CASCADE control uses two “control blocks”. The output of one controller is the setpoint of a second controller.
Ratio and bias (see Steps 20 & 21) need to be applied to the connecting setpoint. Because of the interaction
between controllers, cascade control will only apply to controllers 1 and 2, or 3 and 4, used in pairs, with 1 and 3
being the first controller.
FEEDFORWARD adds a 0-100% value to the PID output. When feedforward is used, the feedforward source
(Step 22) is scaled to provide a 0-100% value to work with the loop output of 0-100%. Depending on the limits of
the input, and the scaling, the FF-term may be limited to less than 100%.
SP + PID adds a term that makes the output primarily proportional to the setpoint, but with PID capability added.
This is used primarily for flow control.
