Menu 7: Analog I/O

Hardware
The drive has three analog inputs (AI1 to AI3) and two analog outputs (AO1 and AO2). Each input has a similar parameter structure and each output
has a similar parameter structure. The nominal full scale level for inputs in voltage mode is 9.8V. This ensures that when the input is driven from a
voltage produced from the drive's own 10V supply, the input can reach full scale.

Terminal Output

Update rate
The analog inputs are sampled every 4ms except where the destinations shown in the table below are chosen, the input is in voltage mode and other
conditions necessary for short cutting are met.
Input destination
Pr 1.36 - Analog reference
Pr 1.37 - Analog reference
Pr 3.14 - Power ff comp
Pr 3.19 - Hard speed ref
Pr 4.08 - Torque reference
It should be noted that the analog inputs are always sampled every 4ms in Open-loop mode. However, the window filter applied to analog input 1 (see
Pr 7.26) can be set to a time that is shorter than 4ms. There is no advantage in doing this, as it simply reduces the resolution of the input data, which
is still only sampled and routed to its destination parameter every 4ms.
Analog outputs are updated every 4ms except when one of the following is the source and high speed update mode is selected. In high speed mode
the output operates in voltage mode, is updated every 250µs, special scaling is used as described in the table and the user scaling is ignored.
Output source
Pr 3.02 – speed
Pr 4.02 - torque prod current
Pr 4.17 - magnetising current
Pr 5.03 - output power

The output is the product of the active current and the voltage component in phase
with the active current (vsy x isy).
10V would be produced when:
Active current = Rated drive current / 0.45
Peak phase voltage in phase with the active current = DC_VOLTAGE_MAX / 2
