Swapping polarity with the POL parameter:
The output drive polarity may be swapped with the POL command.
Valid parameter values are “+” and “-“. (Default = +).
Adjustment of SENS internal monitoring function:
This module has optional input and internal monitoring functions. The module can monitor
command inputs for proper range.
There are three choices for SENS; OFF, ON, and AUTO (default).
OFF disables the internal sensing function.
ON and AUTO enable the internal sensing functions. The difference between ON and AUTO is
how the module handles error correction.
When ON is selected, if the module detects an error, the module will disable.
After the error is corrected, the ENABLE pin must be cycled to reactivate the
module.
When AUTO is selected, if the module detects an error, the module will disable.
When the error is corrected, the module will resume function without cycling
ENABLE.
If the module has been configured to accept current commands, a command value outside of 4 to
20 mA will disable the module, and cause the green READY LED to blink.
EOUT parameter:
EOUT sets a default module output value. When ENABLE (pin 8) has been removed, or the
module has become disabled, the output may be set to a value other than zero. This allows the
machine to slowly extend or retract in the case of loss of electro hydraulic control.
Parameter valid –10,000 thru +10,000. Default is 0. Units of 0.01%
OFFSET parameter:
OFFSET is a fixed adjust to the output. OFFSET valid values are from –4000 to +4000. Units
are 0.01%. Default is 0.
ENABLE (pin 8) digital input:
ENABLE is a digital input that is active high.
When the ENABLE input is low, there is no output to the valve. Command input and feedback
input values are ignored. All other inputs are also ignored.
If ENABLE is removed during an active motion profile, the output to the valve is instantly brought
to zero.
