The Chien-Hrones-Reswick autotuning method focuses on setpoint response and disturbance response. This method provides formulas for 0% and 20% overshoot.

Note You must use the PID Autotuning Design VI to implement this autotuning method. Select the Chien-Hrones-Reswick polymorphic instance and use the Tuning specifications input to configure which formula you want to use.

The following tables shows the Chien-Hrones-Reswick recommendations for each tuning formula:

Regulator – 0% overshoot
Controller Kc Ti Td
P 0.3 TP /
PI 0.6 TP / 4
PID 0.95 TP / 2.4 0.42

where TP is the time constant and is the deadtime.

Regulator – 20% overshoot
Controller Kc Ti Td
P 0.7 TP /
PI 0.7 TP / 2.3
PID 1.2 TP / 2 0.42

where TP is the time constant and is the deadtime.

Servo – 0% overshoot
Controller Kc Ti Td
P 0.3 TP /
PI 0.35 TP / 1.2
PID 0.6 TP / 0.5

where TP is the time constant and is the deadtime.

Servo – 20% overshoot
Controller Kc Ti Td
P 0.7 TP /
PI 0.6 TP /
PID 0.95 TP / 1.4 0.47

where TP is the time constant and is the deadtime.
