Re: Tuning PID Code
 

I'm using a couple of three position rotary switches and an 8 bit dipswitch for my PID tuning needs.

I just thought I'd share this tidbit...

We were working on some PID code for the drive (using a gyro for feedback) and it was kind of thrown together as a hack. We were just trying to figure out if the logic was alright, no code errors, directions were good, etc. Well, low and behold, the first gain parameters we tried got it EXACTLY right. Tweaking just a little around this point resulted in oscillation and/or slower rise time. This has never happened to me before.

Abwehr, please buy a lottery ticket :p

I'm pretty sure that getting the scaling paramters right on first attempt is very very very rare (at least I would think so, based on how much trouble we had last year)

But good job! I hope ours works as smoothly :)
