PID Set Up

PID Loop

The PowerFlex 40P has a built-in PID (proportional, integral,
differential) control loop. The PID loop is used to maintain a process
feedback (such as pressure, flow or tension) at a desired set point. The
PID loop works by subtracting the PID feedback from a reference and
generating an error value. The PID loop reacts to the error, based on the
PID Gains, and outputs a frequency to try to reduce the error value to 0.
To enable the PID loop, parameter

A132

[PID Ref Sel] must be set to an

option other than 0 “PID Disabled”.

Exclusive Control and Trim Control are two basic configurations where
the PID loop may be used.
