PID question
« on: November 04, 2005, 09:00:08 AM »
I need to use 10 channels of the PID. I used the PIDdef to define all ten channels. When I attempt to run the code and it gets to the following line I get an error message with the 9 highlighted. Has anyone attempted to use this many PID channels? The manual states 16 channels are available. The first eight work fine. Any comments will be appreciated.

DM[D+6] = PIDcompute(9,DM[D+5])

Error: Unknown Keyword

A compiler bug has limited the the number of PID channels to 8. You can email support@tri-plc.com and obtain a version that fix this bug.
