Speed Feedback
The purpose of speed regulation is to allow the drive to adjust certain operating
conditions, such as output frequency, to compensate for actual motor speed losses
in an attempt to maintain motor shaft speed within the specified regulation
percentage.
The [Speed Mode] parameter selects the speed regulation method for the drive,
and can be set to one of 3 choices on the PowerFlex 70/700. The PowerFlex 700
Vector option has 5 choices. In addition, [Feedback Select] in the Vector option,
chooses the feedback used for the speed regulator.
•
Open Loop - No speed control is offered
•
Slip Comp - Slip Compensation is active – approximately 5% regulation
•
Process PI - The PI Loop sets the actual speed based on process variables

[Feedback Select]
Selects the source for motor speed feedback. Note
that all selections are available when using Process PI.
“Open Loop” (0) - no encoder is present, and slip
compensation is not needed.
“Slip Comp” (1) - tight speed control is needed, and
encoder is not present.
“Encoder” (3) - an encoder is present.
“Simulator” (5) - Simulates a motor for testing drive
operation & interface check.
