    In open loop control mode the power stage can be controlled by the feed forward function which leads the command value directly to the output. In closed loop control mode the control deviation and parameterizing of the controller define the output signal. Page 11 of 33 PAM-198-P 05.06.2020...

    The valve can now be controlled by the analog command value (depending on the settings). Optimizing settings Now the adjustment can be optimized. The PID controller has to be adapted to the relative application and its requirements. Page 12 of 33 PAM-198-P 05.06.2020...

    Auto reset mode. All monitoring functions are active. If the failure does not exist anymore, the mod- ule automatically resumes to work. Normally the monitoring functions are always active because otherwise no errors are detectable via the READY output. Deactivating is possible especially for troubleshooting.

  • Page 25: Cc (Characteristics Linearization)

    If the CC command is used, the TRIGGER of the MIN/MAX function should be set to 0 and the function should not be used if possible. Both functions influence each other and make the behavior really diffi- cult to evaluate. Page 25 of 33 PAM-198-P 05.06.2020...

    This dead band is necessary, in order to avoid unrequested activations caused by small variations of the input signal. If this module is used in a position controls, the TRIGGER value should be reduced (typical: 1…10). Page 26 of 33 PAM-198-P 05.06.2020...

    An always active integrator would lead to overshoots because of too early pushing the signal. In order to avoid limit cycling the C:I_DZ allows defining a Deadband around the setpoint. Within this range of the control deviation the integrator will be stopped. Page 28 of 33 PAM-198-P 05.06.2020...

    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. Page 29 of 33 PAM-198-P 05.06.2020...

    Typical values are: PPWM = 1… 3 and IPWM = 40… 80. If the PWM frequency is > 1000 Hz, the default values of PPWM = 7 and IPWM = 40 should be chosen. Page 30 of 33 PAM-198-P 05.06.2020...
