Thank you MR. Heymer and Thronton
I connected control function directly to Type 46 and worked well but I do
have one more question.
I am controlling Type 110 pump with Type 22 controller and have noticed
pump always starts with a peak of rated volume flow. My pump has minimum
flow ,25% of rated mass flow and setting minimum control function to 0.25
or even 0 does not help.
I tried changing Threshold for non-zero output and Maximum number of
oscillations to various value still having no luck.
I read that pump does not model on-off condition does that mean running
simulation with very small time steps(>1 min) will have bigger impact on
overall result ? What can be done so pump does not always start at the
peak?


Thank you in advance
