eters) in serial communications.

and the Tach key accesses the tach variable directly
(rather than manually entering the Code Parameter).

technology.

Direct Mode

In the Direct mode of operation, the analog Speed Com-
mand from the MLP–Trim that is connected to the motor
drive can be set directly. Direct mode is an open-loop

and closed loop compensation (PID) software are not
involved in the Direct mode. The Direct mode is used in
conjunction with the Run and Stop controls.
