Frequency arrival output [FA1] uses the
standard output frequency (parameter
F001) as the threshold for switching. In
the figure to the right, Frequency Arrival
[FA1] turns ON when the output
frequency gets within
Fon
Hz below or
Fon
Hz above the target constant
frequency, where
Fon
is 1% of the set
maximum frequency and
Foff
is 2% of
the set maximum frequency. This
provides hysteresis that prevents output
chatter near the threshold value. The
hysteresis effect causes the output to
turn ON slightly
early
as the speed
approaches the threshold. Then the
turn-OFF point is slightly
delayed
. Note
the active low nature of the signal, due to
the open collector output.
Frequency arrival output [FA2/FA4]
works the same way; it just uses two
separate thresholds as shown in the
figure to the right. These provide for
separate acceleration and deceleration
thresholds to provide more flexibility than
for [FA1]. [FA2/FA4] uses
C042
/
C045
during acceleration for the ON threshold,
and
C043
/
C046
during deceleration for the
OFF threshold. This signal also is active
low. Having different accel and decel
thresholds provides an asymmetrical
output function. However, you can use
equal ON and OFF thresholds, if desired.
Frequency arrival output [FA3/FA5] works
also the same way, only difference is
arriving at set frequency.
