installation of the system which are performed on-line after the system is
configured (see Calibration 4.1.2).
NOTE:
Once configuration data has been entered in each Property Sheet, click
the SET button before closing the Property Sheet.
The following sections describe each Configuration Property Sheet and
the information to be entered.
Valve Settings Window
Effective values appear to next
to the Data Entry Blocks. See
Directional Solenoid Output
Section 1.4.1
and valve
manufacturer’s specifications for
Solenoid Current and Bias
Current of the particular valve.
The Bias Current will have no
effect for on-off solenoid valves.
The Bias Current for proportional
valves can be obtained from the
valve’s flow gain curves and is
usually set to about 25% of the
valve’s Solenoid Current.
The Proportional, Integral and
Derivative terms on this Property
Sheet are derived through a
tuning process for specific solenoid valves and adjustment of these values
is normally not required.
CAUTION:
The Proportional, Integral and Derivative terms on this Property Sheet
should only be adjusted by someone familiar with the tuning process of a
PID controller and the desired response of a proportional hydraulic
solenoid valve.
Enter the appropriate new values in the Data Entry Blocks. When
finished, click the SET button before clicking the CLOSE button.
