PID tuning by Graph was created by schmidtmotorworks
I have found a way to understand PID tuning that is easy for me to understand and is working well.
While running a program that moves an axis back and forth and watching the f-error graph I experimented with the effect of adjusting each setting until I could see what each one did to the f-error.
Knowing that made it easy to know what setting to adjust to reduce the f-error
The image below shows what effect adjusting some of the settings has on the shape of the f-error graph.
I hope this is helpful to someone.

hmm this would be good info to add to the manual as well as the pics from here:
wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?PWM_Servo_Amplifiers
Or something similar.
What ya think John?
PID tuning still seems like black magic ....![:) :)](/media/kunena/emoticons/smile.png)

Dang page won't load and I'm off on a short vacation... yes PID tuning is a black magic.

Yah, I was really frustrated by it when i was following the text instructions.
It doesn't seem like a black art at all now.
Maybe the text meant the same to some people as the graphic I posted.
Using this method, I could tune an axis on my machine in 10 minutes maximum. The second axis in 2 minutes since the graph was already set up..
