11.2 The Position PI Input
The input to the position
PI
block is the rate-limited value of
POSITION
REFERENCE
(P.240). The input to the
RATELIM
block is P.240, the output is
POS
RAMP
OUTPUT
(P.237).
þ
To configure the position
PI
block input:
▲
Set
POSITION
REFERENCE
(P.240) to specify the dancer position reference in
counts. The value in P.240 defines the dancer loop position during steady
state operation, which would normally be the midpoint of the dancer storage
(typically 2048 counts).
▲
Set
POS
RAMP
TIME
(P.233) to specify the reference rate of change to minimize
position loop transients during the adjustment of P.240.
▲
The analog position feedback signal must be connected to terminals 52(+)
and 53(-) on the I/O Expansion board.
The standard type of
PI
block feedback is an analog signal proportional to
dancer position; therefore, it is assumed that the dancer position transducer is
either a potentiometer or some other type of linear or rotary transducer whose
output has been converted to an analog signal and conditioned to provide a 0
to 10 volt
DC
signal linear from 0 to maximum position (free storage).
▲
Set
TENSION
/
DANCER
GAIN
(P.417) to adjust the gain of the analog input signal.
▲
If necessary, set
TENSION
/
DANCER
ZERO
(P.416) to adjust the zero point of the
analog input signal.
TENSION
/
DANCER
FDBK
(P.493) is the scaled value of the analog signal used for
position feedback to the
PI
block. The position feedback signal is conditioned by a
SCALE
block and a
LEAD
/
LAG
block which is set to approximately cancel the lag
attributable to the speed loop bandwidth.
The
LEAD
/
LAG
block values are set using the procedures detailed in section 11.1.
þ
To set up the
SCALE
block:
▲
Set
TENSION
FDBK
MIN
(P.852) to set the lower limit.
▲
Set
TENSION
FDBK
MAX
(P.851) to set the upper limit.
