Function:
Normal [0] causes the frequency converter's output frequency to decrease when the feedback is
greater than the setpoint reference. This is common for pressure-controlled supply fan and pump
applications.
Inverse [1] causes the frequency converter's output frequency to increase when the feedback is
greater than the setpoint reference. This is common for temperature-controlled cooling applica-
tions, such as cooling towers.
Function:
The proportional gain indicates the number of times the error between the set point and the
feedback signal is to be applied.

Proportional Gain
Motor Speed
Function:
Over time, the integrator accumulates a contribution to the output from the PID controller as long
as there is a deviation between the Reference/Setpoint and feedback signals. The contribution is
proportional to the size of the deviation. This ensures that the deviation (error) approaches zero.
Quick response on any deviation is obtained when the integral time is set to a low value. Setting
it too low, however, may cause the control to become unstable.
The value set, is the time needed for the integrator to add the same contribution as the propor-
tional for a certain deviation.
If the value is set to 10,000, the controller will act as a pure proportional controller with a P-band
based on the value set in par. 20-93
output from the proportional controller will be 0.
