8.4 Speed sensor
For some configurations an incremental speed sensor must be connected. Dependent
on the speed sensor type it can be connected to the basic device or to an expansion
module. Some applications require the connection to the basic device as well as to the
The source of the actual speed value is selected via parameter Actual Speed
Source
766. By default, speed sensor 1 is used as the actual speed source.
If speed
sensor 2 of an expansion module delivers the actual value signal for the speed control-
ler, speed sensor 2 must be selected as the source.

Speed Sensor 1
The actual speed source is speed sensor 1 of the
basic device (factory setting).
2 -
Speed Sensor 2
The actual speed source is speed sensor 2 of an
expansion module.

Dependent on the application and applied speed sensors the settings of parameters
must be adapted according to the following table.
