PIDGS – PID controller with gain scheduling

Block SymbolLicensing group: ADVANCED

Function Description
The functionality of the PIDGS block is completely equivalent to the PIDU block. The only difference is that the PIDGS block has a at most six sets of basic PID controller parameters and allow bumpless switching of these sets by the ip (parameter set index) or vp inputs. In the latter case it is necessary to set $GSCF = on$ and provide an array of threshold values thsha. The following rules define the active parameter set: the set 0 is active for $vp < thrsha (0)$ , the set 1 for $thrsha (0) < vp < thrsha (1)$ etc. till the set 5 for $thrsha (4) < vp$ . The index of the active parameter set is available at the kp output.

This block propagates the signal quality. More information can be found in the 1.4 section.
