5.9.4 Thresholds
Another Vacon 500x feature related to digital outputs and overall machine coordination is the threshold
function. The Vacon 500x provides two thresholds that can be used to trigger a digital output to control
other equipment based on the conditions measured at one of the analog inputs or overall drive conditions.
It doesn’t matter if the analog input is controlling the Vacon 500x or not; the Vacon 500x is simply
measuring the input and can transmit the condition of the signal associated with it.
Thresholds can look at conditions within the drive, such as load, output power, current, or (with the help of
an encoder board) an encoder frequency or speed signal. You can set limits of high, low, and within range
for the condition to be considered true for a digital output.
The parameters associated with each threshold function are:
Timer #1
Timer #2
Parameter Number
Select (function)
Threshold
High Limit

Low Limit
Threshold #1
Threshold #2
