This example gives 0Hz output through the first 0V~2.5V of Analog Input. The rest of the 2.5V~10V
corresponds to 0~45 Hz

The drive will not reverse direction unless the Frequency Command
is from an analog input, and reverse motion is enabled in P4.09.

FORWARD
NOTE: Due to the way Bias, Gain, and Reverse works, the graph above cannot be achieved with the
Bias and Gain settings: If Reverse is enabled (P4.09), the motor will run reverse when the signal goes
below 2.5V. If reverse is disabled, the analog value will be evaluated as an absolute value (what would
have been negative motion will now result in positive motion).
Set P4.24 to uSe Low Point, Mid Point, and HigH Point SettingS for anaLog inPut conditioning (inStead of
BiaS and gain). uSe tHe foLLowing SettingS to create a deadBand froM 0~2.5V anaLog inPut:
•
Low Point = 0V input; 0Hz output; chart coordinates 0,0
•
Mid Point = 2�5V input; 0Hz output; chart coordinates 2�5,0
•
High Point = 10V input; 45Hz output; chart coordinates 10,45
NOTE: The Low/Mid/High Point method uses % output, instead of Hz. Therefore, the High Point value
in this example = 45Hz / 60Hz Max Output = 75%.
