Gain Adjustment of Velocity Loop
Manual Mode
When the Gain Adjustment Mode parameter ID217 (P2.032) is set to 0, Manual
Mode tuning is used and you must set parameters VelocityProportionalGain
ID189 (P2.004), VelocityIntegralGain ID191 (P2.006), and
AccelFeedforwardGain ID192 (P2.007). More detail about adjusting the gains is
as follows:
• Velocity loop gain: The higher the gain, the bigger bandwidth of velocity
loop response is.
• Integral gain: Increasing this gain will increase the low frequency
rigidity and reduce the steady-state error. However, phase margin is
smaller. If this gain is set too high, the system stability will be reduced.
• Feed forward gain: Diminish the deviation of phase delay.
Theoretically, a stepping response can be used to explain proportional gain
(KVP), integral gain (KVI), and feed forward gain (KVF). Speed over time
diagrams are shown below to illustrate the basic principle.
