  • Page 11: User Interface Operation

    Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers User Interface Operation The user interface has two distinct behaviors that you should familiarize yourself with in order to select parameters and adjust them. These behaviors are described in the Operating Modes section below. A 4-pushbutton keypad and a 2-digit LED display make up the built-in user interface. The pushbuttons, also called keys, are described in the section named Keypad.
  • Page 12 Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers The selected parameter’s value cannot be modified; parameter editing is locked and values can only be viewed. This is the case when password protection is active and the unlock code has not been entered. Read about the Password parameter in the Parameter Reference chapter for more information about using password protection.
  • Page 13: Keypad

    Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers Keypad The keypad consists of four pushbuttons named ENTER, SELECT, INC, and DEC. ENTER Key The ENTER key is used to exit PARAMETER EDIT MODE and return to PARAMETER SELECT MODE while saving the parameter’s new value to nonvolatile memory. Nonvolatile memory is where parameter values are stored so that they are remembered even when the controller is not being powered.
  • Page 14: Led Display

    Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers Press and hold both INC and DEC simultaneously to view the value of a 4-digit number’s upper two digits. Note that the left digit’s decimal point is turned on to indicate that the thousands and the hundreds digits are being displayed.
  • Page 15 Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers An underflow occurs when the value 00 is displayed and the DEC key is pressed (assuming this is not the parameter’s minimum value). This will cause the displayed value to become 99 while the non- displayed value in the parameter’s upper 2 digits will be decreased by one.

    Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers Chapter 3. Parameter Reference This chapter provides information regarding each parameter’s function. Each of this chapter’s subsections provides information about a single parameter. Subsection numbering corresponds to the parameter numbering on the controller’s label to make it easier to locate information about the parameter of interest.

  • Page 18 Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers No. of Flywheel Teeth (optional) This parameter provides the conversion factor needed by the controller to display speeds as RPM values instead of Hertz values. Adjusting this parameter is optional. To use this parameter correctly, you must know the exact number of flywheel teeth that pass by the magnetic pickup in one revolution of the engine.
  • Page 19 Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers Remote Speed Min (optional) REMOTE SPEED MIN is the controller’s minimum target speed when the Remote Speed Pot is selected. The controller will read the remote speed pot position when the SPEED SEL input is OPEN and the startup sequence is complete.

  • Page 21 Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers Derivative (required) The derivative term is one of the interrelated PID terms that determine how well a DPG- 2223-00X controller governs the engine’s speed. The derivative responds to the rate of change in the speed error. This parameter is primarily used to dampen very rapid oscillations resulting from large speed changes.
  • Page 22 Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers This parameter indicates the number of flywheel teeth to use when computing an average engine speed and is used to dampen out speed measurement variations that can make PID tuning difficult. But, keep in mind the following.

    Released Manual 36522 DPG-2223-00X Controllers Note that without integral, a speed error may persist after a load-on load-off transition. Therefore, during steps 3-5 you should temporarily increase the integral to get the engine speed back to the set speed, and then reset the integral to a lower value again while working to find good proportional and derivative values.

    DPG-2223-00X Controllers Startup Sequence The following example describes the DPG-2223-00X startup sequence. Engine cranking begins at point A. After a short time, the engine starts and at point B the engine speed exceeds the STARTUP SPEED (the initial target speed) and the controller now considers the engine to be running.

    + 5 V Recommended Mounting The DPG-2223-00X controller is designed to be panel mounted and its chassis electrically bonded to the same protective reference as the engine structure. The mounting should protect the controller from exposure to rain, weather, and direct sunlight. The controller should not be mounted on the engine or in an environment that exceeds the mechanical specifications outlined in Chapter 2.
