IKT,
Thank you for your reply ,
The PID is part of a complex control system on a Test/development rig for Turbo chargers,in our R&D test Laboratory in Germany .
I will take the time to cutout the relevant signals and HW to the PID problem we see with PL only. I must admit the same hardware is running on an older Test rig with LABVIEW 7 and that has no such issue.
The decision to use PL was purely based on a cost and after trying it on some smaller test projects which worked fine the team thought it might be a solution in future for many test application.As PL is relative easy to work with but with this PID stuff not responding as a person should think, it starts to look like it not an option as the
support for PL is non existing maybe that is the reason it is so cheap .
As the developers from PL hardly answer any problems in the Forum nor at their email it looks like
buy use it or loose it and when they do, they answer in away that give the impression they are very arrogant. My apologies to them but if they look closer they would realize that this is how it is their answer make you feel like
hu what an idiot question you asked I will give this a last try if it yields no results we will throw PL and spend the 9000 Euro to upgrade our LABVIEW licenses and consider the time and money lost with ABBACOM as school fees
with the old saying coming true ,
You get what you pay for PL cost nothing and you also get nothing Just in general I am not a control specialist however I am a HW developer for many years and not such an idiot as people in this forum has tried to tell in their diplomatic ways. After all in my opinion the purpose of the forum is to support the PL product ,and the main contributor should be the product supplier.As they have no official support at their office when you ask support at them directly, they refer you to the Forum!, in the forum you get scolded by other users ,it is clear normal forum users has no obligation to support any questions in the forum, however the supplier has some degree of responsibility to support their product ,or they must clearly state this in their sales that you purchase
SW with out any support not saying support in our Forum as they do
I am afraid to ask anything in the forum as each and every post I get scolded about how I am writing and how stupid I ask questions ,in my opinion most people around here English is their second or third language may be the
German perfection should be a little more tolerant
In my case English is my third language,I will be very happy if I could ask my questions in Afrikaans or Russian which is my first and second language and then I could scold you people around here for the ways you present yourselves .
Kind Regards
Happy easter and please find all the eggs
