Issue:Scale the Analog Output (FM) on the ATV212 drive.
Product Line:
ATV212
S-Flex
Environment:
All models and serial numbers.
Resolution:
When using voltage (0-10Vdc) connect your load prior to calibration. When using current (4-20mA) connect the load after calibration.
If you want to follow OUTPUT CURRENT (FMSL = 1)
4-20mA (no load)
- Set DIP switch FM (SW101) to "I" (left)
- Set F692 for 20 (20% of 20mA = 4mA)
- Set FMSL to 15
- Go to parameter FM and enter
- Connect the current meter to terminals FM and CC
- Press the UP and DOWN arrows until meter reads desired 100% (20mA)
- Press enter to lock in the scale
- Set FMSL = 1 to follow motor current
- Set DIP switch FM (SW101) to "U" (right)
- Set F692 to 0 (0% of 10V = 0V)
- Set FMSL to 15
- Go to parameter FM and enter
- Connect the volt meter to terminals FM and CC
- Press the UP and DOWN arrows until meter reads desired 100% (10Vdc)
- Press enter to lock in the scale
- Set FMSL = 1 to follow motor current
4-20mA (no load)
- Set DIP switch FM (SW101) to "I" (left)
- Set F692 for 20 (20% of 20mA = 4mA)
- Set FMSL to 17
- Go to the FM parameter and enter
- Connect the current meter to terminals FM and CC
- Press the UP and DOWN arrows until meter reads desired 100% (20mA)
- Press enter to lock in the scale
- Set FMSL back to the analog output function you want to follow per the table below.
1. Set DIP switch FM (SW101) to "U" (right)
2. Set F692 to 0 (0% of 10V = 0V)
3. Set FMSL to 17
4. Go to parameter FM and enter
5. Connect the meter between terminals FM and CC
6. Press the UP and DOWN arrows until meter reads desired 100% (10Vdc)
7. Press enter to lock in the scale
8. Set FMSL back to the analog output function you want to follow, per the table attached.
2. Set F692 to 0 (0% of 10V = 0V)

Note: Calibration can also be performed using the VW3A1101 remote keypad. Turn the knob clockwise instead of using the up arrow and turn counter clockwise instead of using the down arrow.
