Granulator applicator proportional output activation (Micro PWM)

 

The  PSC  device  provides  a few  auxiliary  OUTPUTS.  The  "Micro  PWM”  output  provides  a  PWM 
signal with duty cycle proportional to the travel speed, which is useful, for example, for increasing 
fertiliser  dosage  when  the  speed  increases.  This  output  is  enabled  by  selecting  <ON>  on  the 
"Micro PWM” page

 

 

 

 

 

 

Granulator applicator proportional output minimum current coefficient (Duty 
Min.Micro)  

 

Granulator

 

applicator proportional output maximum speed reference (Vel.Max.Micro) 

 

These  two  parameters  are  displayed  only  if  "Micro  PWM”  is  "ON”:  based  on  the  features  of  the 
connected  user  (granulator  applicator),  the  minimum  current  (Duty  Min.Micro)  and  maximum 
reference speed (Vel.MaxMicro) parameters can be changed. The system adjusts the duty cycle of 
the output wave according to a linear feature between the minimum  duty and the maximum  duty 
(100%) with respect to the speed between 0 m/h and Vel.MaxMicro m/h. 

Example:

 

set DutyMin.Micro = 20%, VelMaxMicro=3000 m/h to obtain: 

-

 

Speed: 0 km/h DutyMicroPwm=20 % 

-

 

Speed: 1 km/h DutyMicroPwm=46 % 

-

 

Speed: 2 km/h DutyMicroPwm=73 % 

-

 

Speed: 3 km/h DutyMicroPwm=100 % 

 

 
 

 
 
 
 
 

 

Enabling alarms (Alarms)

 

On  this  page  you 

can  disable  or  enable  the  alarms  that  signal  any  faults  (see  “Alarms” 

section in this manual for a description of the alarms) 

 

 

 

 

Wheel encoder and Motor encoder pulse count (pulsW - pulsM)

 

This page shows two pulse counts for the two encoders. The value shown refers to the count of 
the pulses coming from an encoder phase and can be reset by pressing "Enter” 

(O).

 

 

On this page you can therefore check that the two encoders are working properly.
