Multiple Skip Speeds
The Kinetix 5700 drives feature two independent skip-speed attributes
(SkipSpeed1 and SkipSpeed2) that use the same SkipSpeedBand.
Figure 166 - Multiple Skip Speed Example
When skip-speed band boundaries of SkipSpeed1 and SkipSpeed2 overlap, the
skip-speed hysteresis is calculated using the effective skip band.
, SkipSpeed1 is set to 0 and SkipSpeed2 is set to 15 hz. The skip
band is 10 hz wide.
At point A the axis is enabled, and the motor begins to rotate at -5 Hz even
though the command is 0 Hz. As the command reaches hysteresis point the
output frequency begins to follow the command. During deceleration, when
the command decreases to 0 Hz, the output frequency continues at 5 Hz until
the axis is disabled (point B), or the command is changed outside of the skip
band.
