5.6 Power stage

5.6.1

CURRENT (Rated solenoid current)

Command
CURRENT
The nominal current (for 100% opening) of the solenoid is set here. Dither and also MIN/MAX always refer to
this current value.
5.6.2

DFREQ (Dither frequency)

5.6.3

DAMPL (Dither amplitude)

Command
DFREQ
DAMPL

The dither
can be defined with this commands. Different amplitudes or frequencies may be required
depending on the valve. The dither amplitude is defined in % (peak to peak value) of the nominal output cur-
rent (see: CURRENT command). The dither frequency is defined in Hz. Depending on the internal calcula-
tions, the frequency is adjustable in steps only.
CAUTION: The PPWM and IPWM parameters influence the effect of the dither setting. These
parameters should not be altered again after the dither has been optimized.
CAUTION: If the PWM frequency is less than 500 Hz, the dither amplitude DAMPL should be set to
zero.

The dither is a ripple signal which is superimposed on the current set point and is defined by the amplitude and fre-
quency: the dither frequency and the PWM frequency. The dither frequency should not be confused with the PWM fre-
quency.
In some documentations the PWM frequency is described as a dither. This can be recognized by the lack of the
dither amplitude.
