Scaling PID Output

i have implemented pid function using formula,

code: [select]


correction = kp * error + kd * (error - preverror) + ki * (sum of errors)


what should keep output between range? 0-255 if disregard value not between 0 255 produces jiggly behavior?

how about:

code: [select]

if (correction > 255) {
  correction = 255;
} else if (correction < 0) {
  correction=0;
}
