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 proportional
part 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
from the proportional controller will be 0.
Function:
The differentiator monitors the rate of change of the feedback. If the feedback is changing quickly,
it will adjust the output of the PID Controller to reduce the rate of change of the feedback. Quick
PID Controller response is obtained when this value is large. However, if too large of a value is used,
the frequency converter's output frequency may become unstable.
Differentiation time is useful is situations where extremely fast frequency converter response and
precise speed control are required. It can be difficult to adjust this for proper system control. Dif-
ferentiation time is not commonly used in VLT HVAC Drive applications. Therefore, it is generally
best to leave this parameter at 0 or OFF.
Function:
The differential function of a PID Controller responds to the rate of change of the feedback. As a
result, an abrupt change in the feedback can cause the differential function to make a very large
change in the PID Controller's output. This parameter limits the maximum effect that the PID Con-
troller's differential function can produce. A smaller value reduces the maximum effect of the PID
Controller's differential function.
This parameter is only active when par. 20-95
