    This rate specifies how fast the controller should increase the engine’s speed when a new higher target speed is made active. The parameter value is specified in MPU (magnetic pickup) Hz per second based on the following formula. [(higher_speed_in_Hertz) – (lower_speed_in_Hertz)] / (ramp_time_in_seconds) = accel_rate_value Woodward...

    Increasing the value allows the actuator to open further. The value assigned to the torque limit parameter is in units of one-tenth of a percent of the actuator’s maximum current feedback reading. The controller measures actuator drive-signal feedback and obtains an approximation of the Woodward...

    99% down to 10% in 1% increments. CAUTION—Use carefully, as improper use can prevent the controller from ever reaching the target speed. The first line of defense in reducing overspeed or under speed errors is a well-tuned controller via the PID terms. Woodward...

If after performing the Droop Calibration Procedure the full load calibration value is less than the no load calibration value then the droop function cannot be used. Some actuators may Woodward...

  • Page 29: Chapter 4. Universal Pst

    Introduction The Universal Parameter Setup Tool (Universal PST) is a Microsoft® Windows® application available from Woodward that enables you to adjust controller parameter settings and monitor controller operation. Universal PST also includes a graphical chart recorder that displays engine speed in real-time. This provides a visual representation of how the engine speed changes in response to changes in load, which can be very helpful when tuning the controller.
