DEC – decreases Set Speed A Gain Potentiometer The DPG-2133-00X series controllers provide a potentiometer (labeled GAIN) to adjust the OVG @ Set Speed A. This is one of the controller’s tuning parameters. The gain potentiometer’s adjustment range is 1 to 99. Woodward...
The Universal PST is an MS Windows based application available from the Software Products page at www.woodward.com/software. See Chapter 4 for a description of this tool. The COMM port is intended only for configuration and periodic service. Do not leave a computer and/or COMM cable connected to the COMM port.
14-16, 21-22, 25-26, and 28). Changing the value of parameter 1 will cause different default values to be displayed based on the Hertz to RPM formula. These parameters can be changed with PST max by 100 at once when engine is running. Woodward...

When the No. of Flywheel Teeth parameter is used, the SET SPEED A, IDLE SPEED, OVER SPEED LIMIT, SET SPEED A MIN, SET SPEED A MAX, IDLE SPEED MIN, IDLE SPEED MAX and STARTUP SPEED parameters are displayed as RPM values instead of Hertz values. Woodward...
A speed change creates a speed error (the difference between the target speed and the actual speed.) The proportional gain controls the size of the controller output response to a step change in the speed error. Figure 3-1. Output Response to a Step Change in Speed Error Woodward...
If the engine speed approaches the target speed at a fast rate, the derivative acts to minimize or eliminate overshoot. A zero value is allowed but systems typically require some derivative gain to improve overall engine speed control. Figure 3-3. Derivative Response to Engine Acceleration or Deceleration Woodward...

8-cylinder engines. The following formula can also be used to derive a good starting point for the speed filter value for a given engine application. Round the result to the nearest integer. The maximum value allowed is 24. [(No._of_flywheel_teeth) / (No._of_engine_cylinders)] * 0.75 = speed_filter_value Woodward...

The ramp up will pause at the STARTUP SPEED until the controller senses an MPU signal greater than the STARTUP SPEED. This prevents the startup ramp from reaching completion before the engine has even started. The controller considers MPU frequencies below the STARTUP SPEED as indicating that Woodward...

Idle Speed Min extends from 10 Hertz to the current value of Idle Speed. 3.26 Idle Speed Max (optional) Idle Speed Max is used to set the highest value allowed for Idle Speed adjustments. The adjustable range for Idle Speed Max extends from the current value of Idle Speed to 11000 Hertz. Woodward...

Use a PC running the Universal PST application and read the value of the PWM command in the View Status panel when the engine is cranking. Note: from the Universal PST’s startup screen press the View Status button, then press the Start Monitoring button to begin reading values. Woodward...
Only trained personnel should have access to these tools. Acquiring Universal PST The Universal PST software can be downloaded from the Woodward website. If you also require connection hardware you may purchase a calibration kit from Woodward. Both download and kit request instructions are described below.
Download the newest Universal PST version from the search results. You will be asked to log in to Woodward’s website if you haven’t already done so. After login, you will see the File Download dialog box shown below, or one similar. Click the [Save] button and choose a folder to save the download to.

Ensure the terminals are tightened properly to secure wires. Wiring Diagram Cabling for DPG 2133-00X controllers is limited to less than 30m (98.4’). Power cabling is limited to less than 10m (32.8’) in total length. The wiring diagrams below show specific cable types required. Woodward...
To prevent damage to the controller, make sure that it is wired in accordance with the wiring instructions and diagrams in this manual. • Do not tin the leads before placing them into the terminals. • Ensure the terminals are tightened properly to secure wires. Woodward...
• Unsuppressed, switched inductive loads are in parallel or series with the control power. • The input power is derived from a distribution system or it is more than 32.8’ (10m) from the control to the main power source Woodward...
4. Suppression kits available from Woodward are intended to suppress the majority of the likely pulses. However, they will not protect against all system level implementations outside the intended usage of the control.
If a speed signal is present, measure actuator output duty cycle. If not greater than 5%, then restore all parameter values to factory default settings and crank the engine again. Final target speed must be greater than crank speed before the controller will attempt to drive the actuator open. Woodward...
