reader Control: Servo Control Valve

• Valve Response 1
Determines the speed of the servo valve when product
control error exceeds the Response Threshold setting.
Represents the fast speed of the servo valve.
Decreasing the value will cause the servo valve to run
slower. The default setting is 40%.

• Valve Response 2
Determines the speed of the servo valve when product
control error is less than the Response Threshold
setting. Represents the slow speed of the servo valve.
Decreasing the value will cause the servo valve to run
slower. The default setting is 8%.

• Response Threshold
Determines where the control channel switches between using Valve Response 1 and Valve Response 2
speed setting. Leaving all other valve control settings at the default value and making a small adjustment
to this setting is usually all that is required to fine-tune system performance. The default setting is 15.

- Decreasing this value will have the overall effect of speeding up servo valve response.

- Increasing this value will have the overall effect of slowing servo valve response.

• Allowable Error
Determines the percent of error that is allowed prior to the product control system making any flow rate
changes. 2% - 3% is the normal dead band setting range.

- Too low of a setting value can cause the product control system to continually hunt for the target

application rate.

- Too high of a setting will cause excessive product application error.

• Shaft Speed Calibration
Calibration number representing the pulses that equal one revolution of the rate control metering system.

• Max Speed
The Maximum Conveyor Speed setting determines the maximum RPM of the conveyor that controls
product distribution to the application point.

Spreader Control: Spinner Tab

To view Fan Speed Calibration settings, press the Spinner Tab. Operators with Spinner Spreaders that
use PWM valves will see additional active settings.
