How to can I set the setPoint variable with range of values. Example setting the setPoint values between -1 to 3.

Hi,

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by setting the setpoint to a range of values. The setpoint is the value that the PID is trying to achieve. If you want the PID to stop controlling when it is within a range of values you would need to do that with some logic outside of the PID itself.
