This brief video demonstrates the procedures for connecting to live process data using LOOP-PRO TUNER

In this Video:

Among capabilities, LOOP-PRO TUNER includes modules for tuning PID controllers using either live or historical process data. This video focuses on tuning PIDs using a live connection. Specific procedures covered include:

  • Automatic loop identification
  • Manual loop identification
  • Adding loops to Favorites

What’s Next:

This video demonstrated how to connect to a facility’s control network in order to tune PIDs using live process data. The next Tool Tips video will show how to perform an effective bump test in either open- or closed-loop.
