ECON-4, SW version 1.4 rev.1, ©ComAp – March 2016 Draft 23
ECON-4 Reference guide.pdf
e. Controller setting in case ECON4 is set to communicate with controller via CAN1
(Speed request set to DATA mode)
Besides the above mentioned inputs/outputs adjustment, the IGS-NT setpoints shall
be adjusted in the following way:
Sync/Load ctrl: SpeedGov Bias = 0 Volts
Sync/Load ctrl: SpeedGovLoLim = -10 Volts
Sync/Load ctrl: SpeedGovHiLim = 10 Volts
Sync/Load ctrl: Freq gain = 5 %
Sync/Load ctrl: Freq int = 5 %
Sync/Load ctrl: Angle gain = 10 %
For all modes of ECON-4 usage adjust:
Type of used Actuator – Main PID: Actuator type, PWM rate. The ACT1-4 are preadjusted, see: Act
type 1 – predefined for Woodward ITB 0-200mA, PWM rate [Hz].
Speed PID loop – MAIN PID: Speed gain = 10%, Speed Int = 10%, Speed der = 40%
Type of ECON-4 communication mode: Engine RPM: Speed Request
Idle, Nominal, Overspeed RPM: Engine RPM: Idle RPM, Nominal RPM, Overspeed.
WARNING:
Please, take in account, there are several setpoints of ECON-4, which are not accessible via IGS-NT
control unit in case of DATA mode. These parameters are crucial for ECON-4 and used Actuator
adjustment and so these are accessible via ECON-4 connection ONLY. Use ComAp PC sw WinScope
to adjust these setpoints.
