Why does the PID controller created by the instruction wizard sometimes not work?

Description:
In STEP 7 Micro/WIN, the PID controller created by the instruction wizard does not work sporadically; is this due to

the switching of the enable bit "EN" of the initialization subprogram "PIDx_INIT" (see Fig. 01).

Fig. 01

Solution:
To ensure proper working of the PID controller, the initialization program "PIDx_INIT" must be called from the main

program in each cycle using the special marker 0.0 (SM0.0) (see Fig. 03, Network 2).

The "PIDx_INIT" block configures the PID controller by initializing via the special marker 0.1 (SM0.1) the required

variables that are used by the logic and starting the PID interrupt program "PID_EXE", which is called cyclically

according to the PID sampling time.

Manual operation of the PID controller:

If the PID controller is only to be activated at specific times or events, you can implement this via the manual mode

in the "Instruction Wizard PID" (see Fig. 02).
