Adjustment of the bias setting will likewise adjust the frequency reference that is equivalent to the minimum analog input
level (0Vdc). If, for instance, the bias is set to –25%, then 0Vdc will be equivalent to a –25% frequency reference. Since the
minimum frequency reference is 0% an analog input of 2.5 to10Vdc will now be equivalent to 0-100% speed command span.
As a further example, for an inverse-acting frequency reference, set the bias= 100% and the gain= 0%. The minimum analog
input level (0Vdc) will produce a 100% frequency reference and the maximum analog input level (10Vdc) will produce a 0%
frequency reference.
H3-04 Terminal A3 Signal Level Selection
Setting
0
0 to 10 Vdc
1
-10 to +10 Vdc (factory default)
The H3-04 parameter (Terminal A3 Signal Level) allows the programmer to specify the signal that will be applied to the A3
analog input. The A3 analog input can accept either a 0 to10 Vdc or -10 to +10 Vdc signal as a reference.
H3-05 Terminal A3 Function Selection
Setting Range:
0 to 1F
Factory Default: 2: Auxiliary Frequency Reference 1
Parameter H3-05 performs the same function for the A3 analog input that parameter H3-09 performs for A2 analog input.
Please refer to the parameter description for H3-09 for details. The level of the A3 analog input, as a percentage of the
maximum input, can be viewed by the U1-17 monitor.
H3-06 Terminal A3 Gain Setting
Setting Range:
0.0 to 1000.0%
Factory Default: 100.0%
H3-07 Terminal A3 Bias Setting
Setting Range:
-100.0% to +100.0%
Factory Default: 0.0%
Parameters H3-06 and H3-07 perform the same function for the A3 analog input that parameters H3-02 and H3-03 perform for
the A1 analog input. Please refer to the parameter description for H3-02 and H3-03 for details.
