In order to have the iQpump drive properly interpret an analog input, it may be necessary to apply a gain and/or a bias to the signal. The
analog inputs have a resolution of 10 bits (1024 steps). Using the factory default settings for the analog input’s gain and bias, the 0-10

Vdc or 4-20 mA signal at the analog input will yield a 0-100% speed command span.

Figure 5.34 Output Frequency as Commanded Via Analog Input

If a different span of analog input signal is desirable, it will be necessary to adjust the gain, the bias, or both to allow the analog input

level to generate the desired frequency command. Adjustment of the gain setting will change the speed command that is equivalent to the

maximum analog input (10 Vdc or 20 mA). If, for instance, the gain is increased to 200%, then 10 Vdc or 20 mA will be equivalent to a
200% speed command and 5 VAC or 12 mA will be equivalent to a 100% Speed Command. Since the iQpump drive output is limited by

the maximum frequency parameter (E1-04), 0-5 Vdc or 4-12 mA will now be equivalent to 0-100% speed command span.

Adjustment of the bias setting will likewise adjust the speed command that is equivalent to the minimum analog input level (0 Vdc or 4

mA). If, for instance, the bias is set to –25%, then 0 Vdc or 4 mA will be equivalent to a –25% speed command. Since the minimum

speed command is 0% an analog input of 2.5 to10 Vdc or 8 to 20 mA will now be equivalent to 0-100% speed command span.
