CONTREX ML-Drive - Manual (Page 138)

C - 2
CP-06 DIRECT SETPOINT
Use the Direct Setpoint (CP-06) to set the drive output that is used when the ML-Drive is in the
Direct Mode of operation. Direct mode is an open-loop mode of operation. Scaling,
Acceleration/Deceleration, and closed loop compensation (PID) software are not involved in the
Direct mode. The Direct mode is used in conjunction with the Run and Stop controls.
CP-10 ALARM FORMAT
By entering alarm Control Parameters, you can establish circumstances under which the
ML-Drive will alert you to potential operating problems. The alarm can be wired to activate a
warning light, a warning sound, or to shut down the system under specified conditions. Alarm
Format (CP-10) determines which alarm conditions will activate the Alarm output, using the
values that are entered in Low Alarm (CP-12), High Alarm (CP-13), Ramped Error (CP-14) and
Scaled Error (CP-15).
0 = No Alarm 8 = Scaled Error
1 = Low Alarm 9 = Low Alarm or Scaled Error
2 = High Alarm 10 = High Alarm or Scaled Error
3 = Low Alarm or High Alarm 11 = Low Alarm or High Alarm or Scaled Error
4 = Ramped Error 12 = Ramped Error or Scaled Error
5 = Low Alarm or Ramped Error 13 = Low Alarm or Ramped Error or Scaled Error
6 = High Alarm or Ramped Error 14 = High Alarm or Ramped Error or Scaled Error
7 = Low Alarm or High Alarm 15 = Low Alarm or High Alarm or Ramped Error or
or Ramped Error Scaled Error
CP-12 LOW ALARM
Low Alarm (CP-12) is the RPMs at or below which you want the Alarm output to activate.
CP-13 HIGH ALARM
High Alarm (CP-13) is the RPMs at or above which you want the Alarm output to activate.
CP-14 RAMPED ERROR ALARM
The Ramped Error Alarm (CP-14) is the RPM deviation between the ramped reference and the
feedback that will activate the Alarm output (at or above).
