This section describes the Power Factor mode inputs and outputs for the CGCM
unit.
)NPUTSTOTHE#'#-5NIT
The Power Factor mode has these inputs:
•
PF_VAR_Select – This tag lets you select PF or VAR control.
•
PF_VAR_En – When this tag is set to 1, the CGCM unit uses the
PF_VAR_Select tag to determine its control mode. When this tag is set to
0, the CGCM unit uses the AVR_FCR_Select tag to determine its control
mode.
•
PFSetpt - This tag sets the desired power factor setpoint for operation in
the PF control mode.
•
PF_Kg - This tag lets you adjust coarse loop gain and overall gain of the
power factor controller. It also determines the characteristic of the dynamic
response to a change in the power factor of the generator.
•
PF_Ki - This tag lets you adjust the integral gain of the power factor
controller. This tag determines the characteristic of the dynamic response
to a change in the power factor setting.
•
PF_Traverse_Rate - This parameter determines the time measured in
seconds for the PF setpoint to move from 0.50 lagging to 0.50 leading or
vice versa. It determines how fast the regulator changes the power factor
setpoint from the tracking value to the operating setpoint when the
Regulator Operating mode changes to PF.
•
PF_VARAuxGain - This tag lets you adjust the overall gain of the
auxiliary input’s control on the VAR/PF operating modes. The units for
the var controller are percent of nominal per volt. A setting of one results
in the controlled parameter being changed by one percent of the nominal
value for each volt applied to the auxiliary input. For PF control, the units
are 0.01PF per volt. A setting of 5 results in the regulated PF being
changed by 0.05 for each volt applied to the auxiliary input.

The Power Factor mode has these outputs:
•
PF_VAR_Selection - This tag reports the selection of PF or VAR control
(see PF_VAR_Select ).
•
PF_VAR_Control – This tag reports your selection of PF/VAR or
AVR/FCR mode.
