Function description
The function block replicates a limited integrator.
The function block has the following properties:
NOTE: This function block performs an internal initialization in the first program cycle after a warm start or cold start (e.g. application download or power cycle) of the PLC program.
Due to this, you have to make sure that the function block is invoked in the first program cycle. In case of inkoving the function block in a later program cycle, the internal initialization will not be performed and the ouputs may deliver wrong values.
WARNING
UNEXPECTED OUTPUT BEHAVIOUR
Make sure that the function block is always invoked in the first program cycle.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
EN and ENO can be configured as additional parameters.
Formula
The transfer function is:
The formula for the output Y is:

Variable
Description
Value of input X from the previous cycle
Value of the output Y from the previous cycle
dt
is the time differential between the current cycle and the previous cycle
