Digital Velocity Follower
Date: 07/01/04, Rev: 04-07 Page 1 of 13 TM.G5SW.045
GPD515/G5 Software Option (VSG111104)
Part Number: CIMR-G5MXXXXXF-045
(1)
With this factory-installed FLASH software, the
GPD515 has the ability to precisely follow the
speed of a master encoder or drive. The
speed / frequency ratio between the master
and the follower are infinitely adjustable.
This document is an addendum to Technical
Manual TM4515, listing the effect of this
software on the parameters in the drive and
function descriptions in the manual.
Specifications:
• Requires PG-W2 (DS014) card to function
• Available for all GPD515 drives
• 0.001 Hz Resolution
• Accepts Only Quadrature/Line Driver
Signals
• Accepts virtually any encoder resolution
• Bi-directional (Selectable)
• “Draw” adjustable from –99.99% to
+99.99%
• Ratio and “Draw” adjustable via:
Digital Operator
Serial Communications or
Analog Signal (0 – 10V or 4 – 20 mA)
• Control Modes: Open Loop Vector, Flux
Vector & V/f
• Serial Communications: Modbus RTU
DeviceNet, Modbus Plus & Profibus
