3.12 Setpoint channel
The setpoint channel (refer to Fig. 3-49) forms the coupling element between the
setpoint source and the motor control. MICROMASTER has a special characteristic
which allows the setpoint to be entered simultaneously from two setpoint sources.
The generation and subsequent modification (influencing the direction, suppression
frequency, up/down ramp) of the complete setpoint is carried-out in the setpoint
channel.

For applications where the control quantities are generated from central control
systems, fine tuning is often required locally on-site (correction quantity). For
MICROMASTER, this can be very elegantly realized using the summation point
where the main and supplementary (additional) setpoint are added in the setpoint
channel. In this case, both quantities are simultaneously read-in via two separate
or one setpoint source and summed in the setpoint channel. Depending on
external circumstances, the supplementary setpoint can be dynamically
disconnected or switched-in to the summation point (refer to Fig. 3-50). This
functionality can be used to advantage, especially for discontinuous processes.
