Speed Draw Function
The Speed Draw function can be used to apply a configurable speed ratio
(set in Par 1017 [Speed Ratio]) to the main speed reference of the drive.
This function is useful in a multi-drive system where a proportional speed
increase between the motors is required. The range of parameter 1017
[Speed Ratio] can be set between 0 and 32767 if written in digital form, or
can be set from 0 to 20000 (0 to +10V) if assigned via an analog input. The
resulting speed value can be viewed in Par 1018 [Speed Draw Out] via an
analog output.
