PARAMETER RANGE DESCRIPTION
Max Speed 100–8000rpm Denesthemaximumrequestedmotorrpmatfullthrottle.Partially-
Max_Speed_SpdMx 100 – 8000 applied throttle is scaled proportionately; e.g., 40% applied throttle
0x3840 0x00 corresponds to a request for 40% of the set Max Speed Value.
Note: The maximum motor rpm is subject to the constraints on page 29.
Kp 0 – 100 % Determines how aggressively the speed controller attempts to match
Kp_SpdMx 0 – 8192 the speed of the motor to the commanded speed. Larger values provide
0x3841 0x00 tighter control.
If the gain is set too high, you may experience oscillations as the
controller tries to control speed. If it is set too low, the motor may behave
sluggishlyandbedifculttocontrol.
Ki 5–100% Theintegralterm(Ki)forceszerosteadystateerror,sothemotor
Ki_SpdMx 50 – 1000 will run at exactly the commanded speed. Larger values provide tighter
0x3842 0x00 control.
If the gain is set too high, you may experience oscillations as the
controller tries to control speed. If it is set too low, the motor may take
a long time to approach the exact commanded speed.
Accel Rate
0.1 – 30.0 s Sets the rate (in seconds) at which the speed command increases
Accel_Rate_SpdMx 100 – 30000 when throttle is applied. Larger values represent slower response.
0x3843 0x00
Decel Rate 0.1 – 30.0 s Sets the rate (in seconds) that is used to slow down the vehicle when
Decel_Rate_SpdMx 100 – 30000 the throttle is reduced. Larger values represent slower response.
0x3847 0x00
Brake Rate 0.1 – 30.0 s Sets the rate (in seconds) at which the vehicle slows down when brake
Brake_Rate_SpdMx 100 – 30000 is applied or when throttle is applied in the opposite direction. Larger
0x3848 0x00 values represent slower response.
Pump Enable On / Off This parameter should be programmed On to operate a pump motor
AC_Pump_Enable_SpdM On / Off rather than a vehicle drive motor. Speed controller responsiveness and
AC_Pump_Enable_SpdM_Bit0
[Bit 0] stability are enhanced.
0x3896 0x00
Regen Lower Enable On / Off This parameter works together with Pump Enable as follows.
Regen_Lower_Enable_SpdM On / Off When Pump Enable = On and Regen Lower Enable = On, the pump
Regen_Lower_Enable_SpdM_Bit0
[Bit 0] motor can turn in both the forward and the reverse direction. In this case,
0x3877 0x00 the pump can be used as the Lower function (reverse).
When Pump Enable = On and Regen Lower Enable = Off, the pump
motor can turn only in the forward direction. In this case, a hydraulic valve
is typically used for the Lower function.
When Pump Enable = Off, the Regen Lower Enable parameter
has no effect on the control system.
