KP
FUNCTION: Proportional Constant
DESCRIPTION:
KP designates the proportional constant in the controller filter. The filter transfer function is
D(z) = KP + KD(z-1)/z + KI z/2(z-1)
For further details see the section Theory of Operation in the User’s Manual.
ARGUMENTS: KP n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n or KPA=n where
n is an unsigned numbers in the range 0 to 1023.875 with a resolution of 1/8.
n = ? Returns the value of the proportional constant for the specified axis.
USAGE: DEFAULTS:
While Moving Yes Default Value 6
In a Program Yes Default Format 4.2
Command Line Yes
Controller Usage
ALL CONTROLLERS
OPERAND USAGE:
_KPn contains the value of the proportional constant for the specified axis.
RELATED COMMANDS:
KD Derivative Constant
KI Integrator Constant
IL Integrator Limit
EXAMPLES:
KP 12,14,16,20 Specify a,b,c,d-axis proportional
KP 7 Specify a-axis only
KP ,,8 Specify c-axis only
KP ?,?,?,? Return A,B,C,D
:7, 14, 8, 20 KP values
Note: KP now has four times more resolution as prior controllers, and thus the same value as that of an
Optima controller is four times less effective. KP1 with TE1 yields TT at 0.0003 Volts.
