This is my first time using PID and had a question about the auto tune. I ran thru an auto tune and there is a message box at the bottom that says something (#) where the # increases as it goes thru the tuning. I think it stopped at 7. Then there are 3 buttons to click on the right hand side, one of which says copy to PIDINT. I didn't get a message saying auto tune complete or anything but the PID instruction did get new values, but if i click on the PIDINT button it say you must run an auto tune. I ended up copying the numbers put into the PID instruction into PIDINT but wasn't sure if the copy to PIDINT button was broke or if I didn't wait long enough for the auto tune to finish.
This is in the PID Overview screen BTW.

You were looking either at the report of the auto tune completion OR you might have been looking at the history report of auto tune. I am guessing it was the latter, and it starts off with the initial values (before running any auto tune).
FYI, the history is only maintained for THAT Designer session.
