How many PID loops can used on the M251 with SoMachine / EcoStruxure Machine Expert software?

Issue:
How many PID loops can used on the M251 with SoMachine / EcoStruxure Machine Expert software?

Product Line:
TM251, PID, M241, M258, LMC058, LMC078, M238, M262, HMISCU

Resolution:
There's is no set limitations on how many PID loops you can have.  The limitations would be in the controller's memory upon compilation of the entire Control Application as a whole. If the total compiled code exceeds the maximum Code Memory for that model of PLC, it will show an error on compilation.
The PID is a Function Block, you can have as much PID loops as the controller's Code memory area can hold.  This pertains to all SoMachine / EcoStruxure Machine Expert controllers (M238, M241, M241, M251, LMC058, LMC078, M262, HMISCU).
