Changing the value setpoint at every 50s using elapsed time express

Hi. I am developing a tank level control system program using Neural Network based controller and trying to compare with PID based controller. I need to do experiment to compare results of these two controllers. In order to do that, I need to developed a scenario of changing the value of setpoint at every 50s. For example:

 

when t >= 50s    , Setpoint = 5

           t >= 100s  , Setpoint = 4

           t >= 150s  , Setpoint = 6

           t >= 200s  , Setpoint = 0

 

Can I use the Elapsed Time Express to execute this and how? I know that PID have the Setpoint Profile that can execute this, but for the Neural Network Controller can this be done using the Elapsed Time Express?

 

Thank you.

Hi,

you didn't describe how exactly you get data and set setpoint. I created a simply example with Case structure to do what you want.

I hope I understood you problem correctly.

Hope this helps!

Thank you for your reply. 

 

I am using the Write to Measurement File Express to obtain data and a slide control pallete.

 

Apparently I have solve the problem myself. I used the elapse time express to change the setpoint at certain time using a formula node and add shift register to the whilw loop. And it work. What you send me is something similar and it does help. Thank you so much for helping! 🙂

This is how I solved it.
