ABANDONED PROJECT

While there is nothing technically wrong with this library, the implementation found at https://github.com/m-lundberg/simple-pid is more elegant. It follows the same methodology as Brett Beauregard’s original.

DvG_PID_Controller

PID controller with integral-windup & derivative-kick prevention and bumpless manual-to-auto-mode transfer.

Ported to Python by Dennis van Gils.

Modifications:

• Code refactoring.

• P_ON_M mode has been removed.

• Made the proportional, integrative and derivative terms accessible.

• Made the last error accessible.

• Added optional argument differential_input to have the PID controller regulate a specific difference with respect to the main argument current_input. The specific difference that will be regulated is set by setpoint. Contributor: https://github.com/antonverburg.
