The Post Ramp Reference (02.001) can be combined with the Hard Frequency Reference (03.022) to give the final frequency reference at the input to the frequency controller (see Menu 03). If the Hard Frequency Reference (03.022) is used alone to give the final frequency reference, and the ramp output is not required, then the ramp output can be disconnected by setting Disable Ramp Output (02.005) = 1. This ensures that the reference and ramp systems do not affect the final frequency reference.

Parameter | 02.002 Ramp Enable

If Ramp Enable (02.002) = 1 then the ramp system is present between the Pre-ramp Reference (01.003) and the Post Ramp Reference (02.001). If Ramp Enable (02.002) = 0 then any changes in the Pre-ramp Reference (01.003) are reflected immediately in the Post Ramp Reference (02.001).

If Ramp Hold (02.003) = 0 the ramp system functions normally. If Ramp Hold (02.003) is set to 1 and S Ramp Enable (02.006) = 0 the ramp system output is held at its current level. If Ramp Hold (02.003) is subsequently set to 0 the ramp system output is released and continues to operate normally. If S Ramp Enable (02.006) = 1 when Ramp Hold (02.003) is set to 1 the acceleration will ramp towards zero and the frequency will change in an S curve towards a constant frequency. If a drive stop is requested (i.e. Reference On (01.011) = 0) the ramp hold function is disabled.

Acceleration is defined as a positive (forward) or negative (reverse) frequency change away from zero, and deceleration is defined as a change towards zero. Ramp Mode Select (02.004) defines the ramp mode used for deceleration. During acceleration the frequency changes are based on the final acceleration rate only.

0: Fast ramp
During deceleration the frequency changes are based on the final deceleration rate.

1: Standard ramp
The standard ramp controller operates in a similar way to open-loop mode except that once the standard ramp controller becomes active it remains active until the RFC sequencer leaves the deceleration state. It is possible that the frequency may fall faster than the final deceleration rate as the motor reaches standstill.

2: Standard ramp with motor voltage boost
Standard ramp with motor voltage boost is the same as standard ramp mode except that the magnetising current is boosted to increase the motor losses and reduce the deceleration time.

If the Standard Ramp Voltage (02.008) is set to a level that is below the nominal d.c. link voltage level the motor will coast during deceleration because the torque producing current reference is limited to prevent the motor from accelerating. There are circumstances as listed below where the motor may not decelerated or even accelerate.

1. With a Synchronous machine a limited amount of motoring torque producing current is allowed to make the system operate correctly and in this case it is possible under some circumstances for the motor to accelerate slowly.
2. With a high inductance supply it is possible for the d.c. link voltage to rise as the motor frequency approaches zero, and so the motor will continue to rotate slowly and not stop.
3. An overhauling load can cause the motor to accelerate.

If Deceleration Fail Detection Disable (02.009) is at its default value of 0 the Estimated Frequency (03.002) is monitored. If these do not fall over a period of 10s the ramp output is forced to zero and the d.c. link voltage controller is disabled. If Deceleration Fail Detection Disable (02.009) = 1 this feature is disabled.

3: Fast ramp with motor voltage boost
Fast ramp with motor voltage boost is the same as Fast ramp mode except that the magnetising current is boosted to increase the motor losses and reduce the deceleration time.

If S Ramp Enable (02.006) = 0 linear ramps are used, but if S Ramp Enable (02.006) = 1 an acceleration limit is applied to give S ramps. The S ramp function is disabled during deceleration when the standard ramp voltage controller is active. When the motor is accelerated again the acceleration ramp used by the S ramp function is reset to zero.

Parameter | 02.007 Max Rate Of Change Of Acceleration

A rate of change of acceleration ramp (S ramp) can be applied by different methods depending on the value of S Ramp Set-up Mode (02.041). If S Ramp Set-up Mode (02.041) = 0 then the maximum rate of change of acceleration in both directions, accelerating away from or towards zero, is defined by Max Rate Of Change Of Acceleration (02.007).

The general equations are given below for a linear ramp and an S ramp where

Δw is the required change of frequency.
aMax is the maximum allowed acceleration in units of frequency/s
JMax is the maximum rate of change of acceleration (i.e. jerk) in units of frequency/s2

The time for a linear ramp to give a change of frequency of Δw is

TLinear = Δw x aMax

If an S ramp is used wB is the change of frequency as the acceleration changes from zero to aMax, i.e. the S shaped part of the frequency change.

wB = aMax2 / 2JMax

If the required frequency change is less than 2wB, i.e. Δw B, then the acceleration never reaches its limit and the ramp does not contain a linear ramp section and the time for the ramp is given by

TSramp1 = 2 √ (Δw / JMax)

Otherwise

TSramp2 = (Δw / aMax) + (aMax / JMax)

The diagram below shows a change of frequency from 0Hz to 50Hz with the ramp rate set to 5.0s / 100Hz and the Max Rate Of Change Of Acceleration (02.007) set to its default value of 3.1s2 / 100Hz.

The required change of frequency Δw = 50Hz. The acceleration and jerk limits are converted from the parameter values as follows:

aMax = 100 / ramp rate = 20.0 Hz/s

JMax = 100 / Max Rate Of Change Of Acceleration (02.007) = 32.3 Hz/s2

The linear ramp time TLinear = Δw x aMax = 50.0 / 20.0 = 2.5s

The frequency change for the acceleration to reach its limit wB = aMax2 / 2JMax = 20.02 / (2 x 32.3) = 6.19Hz

The required frequency change Δw = 50.Hz and this is greater that 2wB, i.e. Δw > 2 x 6.19Hz therefore the time for the ramp

TSramp2 = (Δw / aMax) + (aMax / JMax) = (50.0 / 20.0) + (20.0 / 32.3) = 2.5 + 0.62 = 3.12s.

Note that the default value of Max Rate Of Change Of Acceleration (02.007) has been chosen so that when it is combined with the default acceleration rate, the ramp is extended by approximately 25% compared to the linear ramp.

If the required change of frequency had been 5.0Hz, i.e. less than 2 x wB, then the alternative equation should be used:

TSramp1 = 2 √ (Δw / JMax) = 2 √ (5.0 / 32.3) = 0.78s.

The Acceleration Rate Selector (02.010) is used to either select an acceleration rate directly or to define the method used to select an acceleration rate. If 1 ≤ Acceleration Rate Selector (02.010) ≤ 8 the acceleration rate is selected directly, i.e. 1 selects Acceleration Rate 1 (02.011), 2 selects Acceleration Rate 2 (02.012), etc. If Acceleration Rate Selector (02.010) = 0 the acceleration rate is selected with the acceleration rate select bits as shown in the table below.

Acceleration Rate Select Bit 2 (02.034) | Acceleration Rate Select Bit 1 (02.033) | Acceleration Rate Select Bit 0 (02.032) | Acceleration rate selected

See Ramp Rate Units (02.039) for the definition of Ramp rate frequency.

Acceleration Rate 1 (02.011) - Acceleration Rate 8 (02.018) can be selected to define the linear ramp rate. The acceleration rate applies when the frequency is changing away from zero.

Selecting a ramp rate that has been set to zero in Asynchronous mode disables the ramp system so that the Post Ramp Reference (02.001) follows the Pre-ramp Reference (01.003) without any delay for acceleration or deceleration. It should be noted that this also disables the standard ramp d.c. link voltage controller and the frequency based current limits.

If S Ramp Set-up Mode (02.041) = 1 the percentage of the ramp to Maximum frequency that includes half the S ramp profile can be specified with S Ramp Percentage (02.040) as shown in the diagram below. Maximum frequency is defined by Maximum Reference Clamp (01.006) if Select Motor 2 Parameters (11.045) = 0, or M2 Maximum Reference Clamp (21.001) if Select Motor 2 Parameters (11.045) = 1. It should be noted that the time to ramp to Maximum frequency does not change as S Ramp Percentage (02.040) is changed, but the maximum acceleration rate in the centre of the profile increases.

S Ramp Set-up Mode (02.041) defines the method used to set up the S ramp function.

0: Single maximum rate of change of acceleration
The maximum rate of change of acceleration in either direction, when the frequency is changing away from or towards zero, is defined by Max Rate Of Change Of Acceleration (02.007).

1: S ramp percentage
A single maximum rate of change of acceleration is used in either direction, when the frequency is changing away from or towards zero, but this is specified as the percentage of the ramp from zero to Maximum frequency which is covered by the S shaped profile. See S Ramp Percentage (02.040).

2: Four independent maximum rate of change of acceleration values
The maximum rate of change of acceleration can be specified as four independent values. See Max Rate Of Change Of Acceleration (02.007).
