The ramp-function generator in the setpoint channel limits the rate that the speed setpoint
changes. As a consequence the motor accelerates and brakes more softly, reducing the
stress on the mechanical system of the driven machine.
The ramp-function generator is not active if the technology controller in the inverter specifies
the speed setpoint.
Simple ramp-function generator
This inverter always uses the extended ramp-function generator. Consequently, the simple
ramp-function generator is not described in this manual.
Extended ramp-function generator
-up and ramp-
times of the extended
-function generator can
be set independently of each
other. The optimum times
that you select depend on
your particular application in
question and can range from
just a few 100 ms (e.g. for
belt conveyor drives) to
several minut
es (e.g. for

acceleration and braking.
-up and ramp-down times of the motor are increased by the rounding times:
Effective ramp-up time = p1120 + 0.5 × (p1130 + p1131).
Effective ramp-down time = p1121 + 0.5 × (p1130 + p1131).
