Webcast Wednesday Contest # 19
Question) Using the PID Toolkit, design a temperature control system with the following conditions:
Inputs: Set Point Temperature, given by the user
Outputs: Current Room Temperature
Additionally, you need to define temperature thresholds (upper and lower). Your system must prevent violation of these threshold limits.
For example, The user inputs a value of 32oC, in a system with thresholds of 14oC & 35oC
The system’s heating and cooling units must not allow the temperature, during stabilisation, to violate these temperature thresholds.
Say, in the process of temperature stabilisation, the temperature rises beyond 35oC, a Warning LED must glow, for the duration of the violation.
