ICR Rod Style Integrated Control Actuator
5.8 User Interface
There is no software or graphical user interface (GUI) for the ICR SV1B Basic
actuator. Instead, there are three potentiometers located on the top face of the
actuator. Controls are limited to
Extend
velocity,
Retract
velocity and
Force
control.
Potentiometer adjustments can be made easily and simply by the use of a small
screwdriver.

5.8.1 extend Velocity Potentiometer
The
Extend
velocity potentiometer is used to set the
Extend
velocity of the actuator’s
rod. The velocity range is stated from 2-100% of maximum velocity. Changes made
to the
Extend
velocity potentiometer setting will only take effect after the actuator is
stopped and before the next motion is commanded. Turn the potentiometer screw
clockwise to increase the actuator’s rod
Extend
velocity and counter-clockwise to
decrease the
Extend
velocity.
