Pol (Output Polarity); Output Signal Adaptation; Current (Rated Current Range); Dfreq (Dither Frequency) - WEST PAM-190-P Series Technical Documentation Manual

5.4.4 POL (Output polarity)

Command
POL
This command allows a switch over of the output signal direction (after the MIN-MAX function).
Example: POL:A
POL:A

5.5 Output signal adaptation

5.5.1

CURRENT (Rated current range)

Command
CURRENT
The nominal current range is set with this parameter. Dither and also MIN/MAX always refer to the selected
current range.
0 = 1.0 A range
1 = 2.5 A range.
5.5.2

DFREQ (Dither frequency)

5.5.3

DAMPL (Dither amplitude)

Command
DFREQ
DAMPL
3
The dither can be defined freely with this command. Different amplitudes or frequencies may be required de-
pending on the respective valve. The dither amplitude is defined in % of the nominal current (see: CURRENT
command).
CAUTION: The PPWM and IPWM parameters influence the effect of the dither setting. These param-
eters should not be changed again after the dither has been optimized.
CAUTION: If the PWM frequency is less than 500 Hz, the dither amplitude should be set to zero.
3
The DITHER is a superimposed signal to reduce the hysteresis. This function is defined by the amplitude and frequency.
The DITHER frequency should not be confused with the PWM frequency. In some proportional valve documentations a
mistake is done by the definition of the DITHER / PWM frequency. It is recognizable by missing information about the
DITHER amplitude.
