Direct Mode
In the Direct mode of operation, the drive output from the MLP–Drive to the motor drive
can be set directly. Direct mode is an open-loop mode of operation. Scaling,
Acceleration/Deceleration, 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.
The Direct Setpoint (CP-06) is entered as a percentage of the MLP–Drive's drive
output. To enable or disable Direct mode, use the Direct Enable (CP-61).
The factory default Control Parameters for the Direct mode are found in Table 3-2. To
modify the default parameters, refer to Table 3-3.
