7 Creating a Tuning List
7.1 Foreword
During commissioning and normal operation it is desirable to change the tuning
parameters from the front panel of the instrument. In addition, MOD 30ML allows the
user to create ‘tuning displays’ that contain many other types of information including
recipe parameters and lookup values. This lab leads you through creating a basic Tune
List for a PID block, which is accessed by pressing and holding the Scroll key on the front
panel. Although the Component Gallery contains a complete PID loop with algorithm
blocks, Display block, and Tune List, it is useful to use the PID tuning list as an example.
7.2 Objective
In this lab we will add a Tune List block to the PID strategy created in the PID Loop Lab,
and configure it to show basic tuning and commissioning parameters. You will need the
Mod Function Block Diagram that you created in the PID Loop Lab.
7.3 Instructions
Follow these instructions step-by-step to add and configure the Tune List block:
1. Adding a Tune List Block:
• Open the PIDLoop instrument document in the ViZapp workspace and then open
the loop compound that contains the PID and Display blocks.
• Select the TL (Tune List) block from the Algorithms window and add it to the
document next to the display block.
