Analog Inputs

Two analog inputs are available: analog input #1 (J1-1 and J1-2) and analog input #2

 

(J1-4 and J1-5) as shown in Figure 3-12. Either analog input may be selected in the

 

Level 1 INPUT block, Command Select parameter value. Analog input #1 is selected if

 

the parameter value is “Potentiometer”. Analog input #2 is selected if the parameter

 

value is “+/-10Volts, +/-5 Volts or 4-20mA”. Figure 3-13 shows the equivalent circuits of

 

the Analog Inputs.

Analog Input #1

When using a potentiometer as the speed command, process feedback or setpoint

(Single Ended)

source, the Level 1 Input block COMMAND SELECT parameter must be set to

 

“POTENTIOMETER”.

 

Note: A potentiometer value of 5kW to 10kW, 0.5 watt may be used.

Parameter Selection

The single ended analog input #1 can be used in one of three ways:

1.Speed or Torque command (Level 1 Input block, Command Select=Potentiometer).

2.Process Feedback (Level 2 Process Control block, Process Feedback=Potentiometer).

3.Setpoint Source (Level 2 Process Control block, Setpoint Source=Potentiometer).

When using Analog Input #1, the respective parameter must be set to

“POTENTIOMETER”.

Analog Input #2

Analog input #2 accepts a differential command 0-5VDC, 0-10VDC, ± 5VDC, ± 10VDC or

(Differential)

4-20 mA. If pin J1-4 is positive with respect to pin 5, the motor will rotate in the forward

 

direction. If pin J1-4 is negative with respect to pin 5, the motor will rotate in the reverse

 

direction. JP1 must be set for voltage or current operation as required. Analog Input #2

 

can be connected for single ended operation by grounding either of the inputs, provided

 

the common mode voltage range is not exceeded.

 

Note: The common mode voltage can be measured with a voltmeter. Apply the

 

maximum command voltage to analog input 2 (J1-4, 5). Measure the AC and

 

DC voltage across J1-1 to J1-4. Add the AC and DC readings together.

 

Measure the AC and DC voltage from J1-1 to J1-5. Add the AC and DC

 

readings together.

 

If either of these measurement totals exceeds a total of ± 15 volts, then the

 

common mode voltage range has been exceeded. To correct this condition,

 

either change the command source or isolate the command signal with a

 

signal isolator.
