Yaskawa E7L Drive Bypass - Manual (Page 146)

H3 Analog Inputs
H3-02 Drive Terminal A1 Gain Setting
Setting Range: 0.0 to 1000.0%
Factory Default: 100.0%
The addition of another input signal on terminal A1 to the Drive and Bypass unit, after shipment to the job site, would be the
only reason for changing this parameter.
For example, in variable air volume AHUs with a “volume matching” control strategy, P1 differential control is employed with
feedback signals connected to both terminals A1 and A2.
H3-03 Drive Terminal A1 Bias Setting
Setting Range: -100.0% to +100.0%
Factory Default: 0.0%
In order to have the 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 0-10Vdc or 4-20mA signal at the analog input will yield a 0-100% speed command span.
Fig 5.24 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 (10Vdc or 20mA). If, for instance, the gain is increased to 200%, then 10Vdc or 20mA
will be equivalent to a 200% speed command and 5 VAC or 12mA will be equivalent to a 100% Speed Command. Since the
Drive output is limited by the maximum frequency parameter (E1-04), 0-5Vdc or 4-12mA will now be equivalent to 0-100%
speed command span.
