Note that
TENSION
VERNIER
(P.856) will be a proportional or incremental trim of line
speed dependent on the configuration of
OCL
PROP
TRIM
SELECT
(P.813). Refer to
section 3.3 and figure 3.1.
þ
To set the
PI
block
HI
and
LO
limits:
▲
Set
TENSION
PI
LIMIT
(P.853). For example, if 10% tension vernier is to be used,
set the
PI
block
HI
and
LO
limits to 409 counts.
The output of the tension
PI
block provides a vernier signal that is used to trim
the speed loop reference when
OCL
TYPE
(P.818) is set to
CASCADE
and to trim
the speed loop
PI
limits when
OCL
TYPE
(P.818) is set to
PARALLEL
.
In cascade, 4095 counts equals top line speed. In parallel, 4095 counts
equals maximum current.
þ
If the outer control loop is configured as a current regulator
(P.817 =
CURRENT
):
▲
Set
TEN
LEADLAG
SELECT
(P.837) to
BYPASS
.
10.5 The Slack Take-Up Function
The slack take-up function initiates a smooth removal of loose web, when drive
tension is on, by limiting the amount of motor torque applied until the slack is removed.
When slack take-up is released, the drive operates at the tension set by
TEN
RAMP
OUTPUT
(P.842). Refer to figure A.19 in Appendix A of the software manual (D2-3444).
þ
To use the slack take-up function:
▲
Set
SLACK
TENSION
PI
LIM
(P.318).
▲
Assert the slack take-up digital input (terminal 12 on the Regulator board).
(
SLACK
TAKE
UP
DIN
TP
(P.494) should be
ON
.) The drive uses the value of
SLACK
TENSION
PI
LIM
(P.318), which is a percentage of the running limit value
as set by
TENSION
PI
LIMIT
(P.853).
þ
To turn off the slack take-up function:
▲
De-assert the slack take-up digital input (terminal 12 on the Regulator board).
(
SLACK
TAKE
UP
DIN
TP
(P.494) should be
OFF
.)
