PID Feedback Value by Communication Protocol 
 
 
  Default: Read only 
  Settings  -200.00%–200.00% 
  Use  communication  to  set  the  PID  feedback  value  when  the  PID  feedback  input  is  set  to 
communication (Pr.08-00 = 7 or 8).   
 
 
PID Delay Time 
 
 
  Default: 0.0 
  Settings  0.0–35.0 sec. 
 
 
PID Mode Selection 
 
 
  Default: 0 
  Settings  0: Serial connection 
    1: Parallel connection 
  0: Serial connection, use conventional PID control structure. 
  1: Parallel connection, the proportional gain, integral gain and differential gain are independent.       
    You can customize the P, I and D value to fit your application. 
  Pr. 08-07 determines the primary low pass filter time when in PID control. Setting a large time 
constant may slow down the drive’s response rate.   
  PID control output frequency is filtered with a primary low pass function. This function can filter 
mix  frequencies.  A  long  primary  low  pass  time  means  the  filter  degree  is  high  and  a  short 
primary low pass time means the filter degree is low.   
  Inappropriate delay time setting may cause system error.   
  PI Control:   
Controlled only by the P action, so the deviation cannot be entirely eliminated. In general, to 
eliminate residual deviations, the P + I controls. When you use the PI control, it eliminates the 
deviation  caused  by  the  targeted  value  changes  and  the  constant  external  interferences. 
However, if the I action is too powerful, it delays the response when there is rapid variation. You 
can use the P action by itself to control the loading system with the integral components. 
  PD Control:   
When deviation occurs, the system immediately generates an operation load that is greater than 
the load generated only by the D action to restrain deviation increment. If the deviation is small, 
the effectiveness of the P action decreases as well. The control objects include applications with 
integral component loads, which are controlled by the P action only. Sometimes, if the integral 
component is functioning, the whole system may vibrate. In this case, use the PD control to 
reduce the P action’s vibration and stabilize the system. In other words, this control is useful with 
no brake function’s loading over the processes. 
  PID Control:   
Use the I action to eliminate the deviation and the D action to reduce vibration; then combine 
this with the P action for the PID control. Use the PID method for a control process with no 
deviations, high accuracies and a stable system.
