The paper provides a brief description of conventional and discrete PI controller. The goal of this paper was creating a PI controller that can be modified during the time of operation in proposed GUI.

The main field of using this PI controller is speed regulation of a various DC motors with digital encoders. Such PI controller can be used for education purposes to showing what happen when the PI parameters are set incorrectly without removing or changing any physical parts. The paper also shows the main algorithm and the type of communication between the microcontroller and the proposed GUI.

Keywords:  ARM, control algorithm, DC motors, PI controller, speed regulation
