Abstract
A system for controlling start-up of a feedback controller includes a memory device and a processing circuit. The processing circuit is configured to receive a gain parameter from the feedback controller and to store the gain parameter in the memory device. The processing circuit is further configured to multiply the stored gain parameter and to cause the feedback controller to use the multiplied gain parameter in response to a determination that the feedback controller has restarted.
Claims20
A system for controlling start-up of a feedback controller, the system comprising:
- a memory device;
- a processing circuit configured to receive a gain parameter from the feedback controller and to store the gain parameter in the memory device such that the gain parameter is non-transitory and available for use during a start-up of the feedback controller;
- wherein the processing circuit is configured to multiply the stored non-transitory gain parameter by a multiplier;
- and
- wherein the processing circuit is configured to cause the feedback controller to use the multiplied gain parameter in response to a determination by the processing circuit that the feedback controller has restarted.
A method for controlling start-up of a feedback controller, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a processing circuit, a gain parameter from the feedback controller;
- storing the gain parameter in a memory device such that the gain parameter is non-transitory and available for use during a start-up of the feedback controller;
- using the processing circuit to multiply the stored non-transitory gain parameter by a multiplier;
- determining that the feedback controller has restarted;
- and
- in response to the determination that the feedback controller has restarted, causing the feedback controller to use the multiplied gain parameter.
A system for controlling start-up of a feedback controller, the system comprising:
- means for receiving a gain parameter from the feedback controller;
- means for storing the gain parameter in a memory device such that the gain parameter is non-transitory and available for use during a start-up of the feedback controller;
- means for multiplying the stored non-transitory gain parameter;
- means for determining that the feedback controller has restarted;
- and
- means for causing the feedback controller to use the multiplied gain parameter in response to a determination that the feedback controller has restarted.
