Setting the Electronic Gear Ratio and Speed Reference Scaling
The position reference can be scaled by using the Electronic Gear Ratio (EGR)
scaling. Parameters 745 [PositRef EGR Mul] and 746 [PositRef EGR Div] are
used to scale the position reference.
Example:
In this example the encoders are mounted on the motors. The motors are directly
coupled to the load and we want the follower to run at four (4) times the speed of
the master.
where:
where:
Solving for the lowest common denominator, the 1024 values on the top
and bottom cancel out so that:
Therefore, parameter 745 [PositRef EGR Mul] = 4 and parameter 746
[PositRef EGR Div] = 1. This will set up the position loop of the follower
to move four (4) counts for every one (1) count of the master.
PPRm = 1024 PPR
PPRf = 1024 PPR
Ratiof:Ratiom = 4:1
PPRm = the PPR of the master encoder
PPRf = the PPR of the follower encoder
Ratiof:Ratiom = the desired ratio between the follower speed and the master speed
CPRf = the counts per revolution of the follower feedback device. For an incremental
encoder this is four (4) times the encoder PPR. For a Stegmann Hi-Resolution
encoder this is 1048576. For a resolver this is 65536.
