Quick-tuning flow chart

The product supports tuning-free motor start for fast commissioning. Commissioning has two paths: speed mode and pressure mode.

Hydraulic servo commissioning

AI zero-drift auto-correction

StepFunction codeNotes
AI zero-drift auto-correctionH0D.10=1AI zero-drift auto-correction completes in about 1 second
⚠️

Manual correction: with the drive disabled, read the three AI channels H0B.92, H0B.93, H0B.94. Take the maximum value plus a 0.08V margin and write it to H1A.33, H1A.38, and H1A.43. After AI zero-drift auto-correction finishes, H0D-10 automatically returns to “0”.

Pressure release

CodeNameSettingNotes
H14.08Max reverse speedPercentage of max speedLargest reverse speed during pressure release. Higher values give faster release but more pump-reversal noise.

Base flow and base pressure

Because of internal leakage in the pump, when no flow or pressure command is given, the hydraulic fluid flows back into the tank, letting air into the oil path and creating noise and instability. A small base flow and base pressure are therefore required.

Pressure command filter times

H14.04Group-1 pressure-command rise time0.000 s–2.000 sPressure-rise ramp

H14.26Group-1 pressure-command fall S-filter0.001 s–1.000 sS-curve filter

Shorter filter times give faster pressure response with larger overshoot; longer filter times slow the response and reduce overshoot.

Flow command filter times

Shorter filter times give faster pressure response with more mechanical shock; longer filter times give smoother operation.

Pressure PID response tuning

Pressure PID group selection

Pressure PID mode 1: DI group selection

The drive provides four PID groups selected by the combination of DI inputs 48#DI2 and 49#DI3:

DI3 (49#DI function)DI2 (48#DI function)PID group
00Group 1: H14.05, H14.06, H14.07
01Group 2: H14.11, H14.12, H14.13
10Group 3: H14.14, H14.15, H14.16
11Group 4: H14.17, H14.18, H14.19

Higher proportional gain Kp, shorter integral time Ki, and larger derivative time Kd give faster response, but if response is too fast it will overshoot and oscillate. Conversely, a weak response lowers efficiency and causes inconsistent parts.

Pressure PID proportional gain

Parameters: H14.05, H14.11, H14.14, H14.17

Higher gain gives faster pressure response; too high causes oscillation.

Pressure PID integral time

Parameters: H14.06, H14.12, H14.15, H14.18

Shorter integral time gives faster pressure response; too short causes overshoot; too weak causes pressure instability.

Pressure-loop gain coefficient

CodeNameRangeUnitDefaultChange
H14.29Pressure-loop gain coefficient0.2%–5.00%%1.00Real-time

Used to tune the overall pressure-loop response. Higher values make the loop more responsive; too high causes oscillation.

⚠️

When the hydraulic inertia is large or the hose is long and thin, this gain usually needs to be reduced.

Holding-pressure stability

If holding pressure fluctuates significantly, improve stability by strengthening the first (low-speed) speed-loop stiffness—raise H09.01 moderately. Do not overdo it or motor control will oscillate.

CodeNameValueDefaultChange
H09.01Stiffness level 10–3112Real-time

Switch pressure-loop PI based on the setpoint

CodeNameValueDefaultChange
H14.63High/low-pressure PI switch enable (Kp)0–10Real-time
H14.64Group-1 low-pressure Kp0.0–800.0210Real-time
H14.65Group-1 low-pressure Ti0.001–10.0000.5Real-time
H14.66Group-1 high-pressure Kp0.0–800.0260Real-time
H14.67Group-1 high-pressure Ti0.001–10.0000.02Real-time
H14.68Low-pressure threshold0.0 to H14.6950Real-time
H14.69High-pressure thresholdH14.68 to H14.02100Real-time

When H14.63=1, the high/low-pressure PI switch is enabled. H14.05 and H14.06 then change automatically based on the setpoint:

  • Above H14.69, use H14.66 and H14.67.
  • Below H14.68, use H14.64 and H14.65.
  • Between H14.68 and H14.69, the PI values are interpolated linearly.
⚠️

The high/low-pressure PI switch is only effective with PID group 1, i.e. when both 49#DI and 48#DI are 0.
