Connecting the Control Signals

5-5-2
Types of control signals
Always make a distinction between the different types of signals. Because the
different types of signals can adversely affect each other, use a separate
cable for each type. This is often more practical because, for example, the
cable from a pressure sensor may be connected directly to the variable speed
drive.
We can distinguish between the following types of control signals:
Analogue inputs
Voltage or current signals, (0-10 V, 0/4-20 mA) normally used as control sig-
nals for speed, torque and PID feedback signals.
Analogue outputs
Voltage or current signals, (0-10 V, 0/4-20 mA) which change slowly or only
occasionally in value. In general, these are control or measurement signals.
Digital
Voltage or current signals (0-10 V, 0-24 V, 0/4-20 mA) which can have only
two values (high or low) and only occasionally change in value.
Data
Usually voltage signals (0-5 V, 0-10 V) which change rapidly and at a high fre-
quency, generally data signals such as RS232, RS485, Profibus, etc.
Relay
Relay contacts (0-250 VAC) can switch highly inductive loads (auxiliary relay,
lamp, valve, brake, etc.).
Example:
The relay output from a variable speed drive which controls an auxiliary relay
can, at the moment of switching, form a source of interference (emission) for a
measurement signal from, for example, a pressure sensor. Therefore it is
advised to separate wiring and screening to reduce disturbances.
