===== Description =====

The block is an implementation of a PI controller (with parameters: P-band, Integration constant, Offset, Min and Max values, and output value of an inactive controller).

|OUT    |REAL|Output signal (mostly valve or damper, 0 to 100%).|
|PFACTOR|REAL|P-part of the output signal                       |
|IFACTOR|REAL|I-part of the output signal                       |

===== Function =====

There is a control deviation at the controller input, E=(W+OFF)-X. The controller output OUT is given by the relation OUT=-100/Xp*(E+1/Ti*∫e)+MIN, where XP is the proportional band. The integration part (I-part) is calculated as follows: When OUT=0 at t=0 and the inputs are W+OFF=0, X=-1, then the I-part rises to OUT=100 at t=Ti, see figure below. The I-part is limited to 0...100 before it is added to the P-part. The resulting value is finally limited by MIN and MAX, see figure at [[en:mervis-ide:35-help:035-software_basic:060-libraries:020-basic-analogue-boxes:010-controllers:010-reverse-acting-heating:010-b33_reverse_p_controller|block B33]]. The I-part helps to achieve the exact control value.

The BP input sets the I-part to 0, if set to true.

The ENABLED parameter switches the controller off (ENABLED=FALSE, controller disabled, and OUT=DISVAL). If Xp<0 then Xp=0, see below. If MAX<MIN then OUT=MAX (or minimum from (MIN, MAX)).
