Hello, For a starting point, you can try reading the following previously discussed threads (that is available with a simple search): Max number of PID loops in S7-1214C Pegaia some time ago Iwas inaworkshop where the "teacher" says something like that. Imediataly I download a program with more than 16 PID to "see what will happens", and it works. I don't remenber now how many PID I program at end, but I think that was 21. Without problem. At list while the presentation ran. This thema, remember me of the start of S7-300 whenwas in the catalog that the S7314 could just 16 PID run... PID isa subroutine, like any other. The limitstays principally insize of CPU memory, and runtime cycle. Best regards Hamid Hosseini
