We need to control a servo motor operation in backward and forward direction through a DCS/PLC. Kindly let me know how such loop to be configured in DCS.

Please suggest me how the control loop to be defined in DCS to control the servo motor movement as per temp.

Normally you would use some kind of motion controller, or at least a
"smart" drive which has the loop closure in it. PLCs often have some
kind of plug-in card to do basic motion as well.

IF all you care about is forward, reverse, and loose velocity control
you can use an inverter drive with these capabilities in it.
