Application Notes
Process PI
The internal PI function of the LPM15 provides closed loop process control
with proportional and integral control action. The function is designed for
use in applications that require simple control of a process without external
control devices. The PI function allows the microprocessor of the drive to
follow a single process control loop.
The PI function reads a process variable input to the drive and compares it
to a desired setpoint stored in the drive. The algorithm will then adjust the
output of the PI regulator, changing drive output frequency to try and make
the process variable equal the setpoint.
It can operate as trim mode by summing the PI loop output with a master
speed reference.
Or, it can operate as control mode by supplying the entire speed reference.
This method is identified as “exclusive mode.”
PI Enable
The output of the PI loop can be turned on (enabled) or turned off
(disabled). This control allows the user to determine when the PI loop is
providing part or all of the commanded speed. The logic for enabling the PI
loop is shown below.
