'P' factor on; therefore, these units must estimate error based on several control loop factors. Those who are familiar with PID control tuning should be aware that the MD10P and MD3P control's P Gain is somewhat different than that of standard velocity-form PID algorithms. -

to proceed: Test Procedure: Adjust the target (displayed) speed as expected during normal operation, including testing inhibit and jog transitions if applicable. Tuning Method: Step 1 - Connect control to loaded motor with application's anticipated load for realistic tuning Step 2 - Perform test procedure Step 3 - If control performs adequately, stop tuning and record settings Step 4 - If control is too sluggish or takes too long to reach the target speed, then try increasing I Gain slightly (add 250). -

Parameter-Selection Mode can be entered by simply pressing and holding the Enter button down for three seconds. Once in Parameter-Selection Mode, the far left of the display will be a ‘P’. The right side of the display will indicate the currently selected parameter number for editing purposes. Pressing the Up or Down button will increase or decrease the selected parameter number on the display. -

Page 18: Parameter Descriptions
Parameter 1 – Model Number (Read Only) This is a number which represents the base model number for the product. The model codes for the MD10P ,MD3P, and MD3E are 10 ,11, and 13 respectively. Parameter 2 – Software Build (Read Only) The software build is a code which identifies the software version of the unit. - Page 19 Parameter 14 – Keypad Mode This parameter selects the operating mode of the front-panel push buttons. In some applications, increasing or decreasing the scroll rate provides the user more controllability when entering settings. Parameters 14 and 15 affect only the Up and Down buttons when the user interface is in Running Mode.
- Page 20 Parameter 19 – Power-up Value When Power-up Mode is set to 2, this parameter will designate the default display value at power-up in display units. Parameter 20 – Display Minimum This parameter defines the lower end of the display range. This is the value which limits how low the user is able to scroll the displayed value in Running Mode.
- Page 21 Parameter 30 – Signal Input 1 (S1) Display Reference This is the number to be displayed when at the user-specified motor Reference RPM. In Rate Mode, this value represents rate units such as feet, ounces, or revolutions. In Time Mode, this value represents the reference time measured in seconds or minutes.
- Page 22 Mode 6: Jog When S2 High (Not Wired To Common) When the S2 input is at an electrically high (+5V) state or allowed to float disconnected, the MDP will enter jog mode. While in jog mode, the display will immediately change to the programmed jog setpoint, parameter 36.
- Page 23 Mode 6: Jog When UIN1 High (Not Wired To Common) When the UIN1 input is at an electrically high (+5V) state or allowed to float disconnected, the MDP will enter jog mode. While in jog mode, the display will immediately change to the programmed jog setpoint, parameter 41.
- Page 24 Mode 6: Active When Target (Display) = Zero The alarm output will activate when the displayed value is equal to zero. This allows the alarm output to be used to drive a mechanical brake to decrease stopping time or to provide holding torque at zero speed.
- Page 25 Mode 5: Silencing Enabled, Reset On S2 Input High (Not Wired To Common) Similar to Mode 4. Setting the S2 input to a high (+5V) state or allowing it to float disconnected will cause the alarm to be silenced or reset depending on the current state of the alarm conditions.
