Output Function Adjustment Parameters
The overload level parameter (C41)sets the
motor current level at which the overload
signal becomes true. The range of settings
is from 0% to 200% of the rated current
for the inverter. This function is for gener-
ating an early warning logic output,
without causing either a trip event or a
restriction of the motor current (those
effects are available on other functions).
The frequency arrival signal is intended to
indicate when the inverter output has
reached (arrived at) the target frequency.
You can adjust the timing of the leading
and trailing edges of the signal via two
parameters specific to acceleration and
deceleration ramps, C42 and C43.
The Error for the PID loop is the magni-
tude (absolute value) of the difference
between the Setpoint (desired value) and
Process Variable (actual value). The PID
output deviation signal (output terminal
function option code 04) indicates when
the error magnitude has exceeded a magni-
tude you define.
