.IBPSA.Controls.Continuous.PIDHysteresisTimer

Information

Block of a controller for set point tracking with a hysteresis element that switches the controller on and off, and a timer that prevents the controller to short cycle.

The controller is similar to IBPSA.Controls.Continuous.PIDHysteresis but in addition, it has a timer that prevents the controller from switching to on too fast. When the controller switches off, the timer starts and avoids the controller from switching on until minOffTime seconds elapsed.

• September 29, 2016, by Michael Wetter:
  Removed parameter limitsAtInit because it is no longer used in the PID controller.
• March 15, 2016, by Michael Wetter:
  Changed the default value to strict=true in order to avoid events when the controller saturates. Also assigned propogated values to be final. This is for issue 433.
• February 24, 2010, by Michael Wetter:
  Changed PID controller from Modelica Standard Library to PID controller from Buildings library to allow reverse control action.
• October 2, 2009, by Michael Wetter:
  Fixed error in default parameter eOn.
• February 9, 2009, by Michael Wetter:
  First implementation.
