Filter Operation

Proportional P(k) = KP · X(k)
Derivative D(k) = KD · [X(k) - X(k-1)]
Integral I(k) = KI · X(k) + I(k-1)

Functions:
Proportional For speed of response
Derivative For stability and damping
Integral For accuracy - slow response

System Tuning

Sold & Serviced By:

www.servo2go.com

System Connection and Compensation

Connecting the system elements is done in three steps:
1. Test each function separately.
2. Close the position loop with low gain.
3. Tune the controller for fast and accurate response.

Potential problems and their effects:
1. Ground loops - instability and noise sensitivity.
2. Connection with wrong polarity (positive feedback) --
causes motor to run away.
3. Too high gain -- causes instability and oscillations.

Sold & Serviced By:

www.servo2go.com

System Compensation

Set PID filter to
KI = 0
KP, KD low values
Step I -- KD
Increase the derivative constant, KD, until system
vibrates, then back off.
Step II - KP
Increase the proportional constant, KP, until system
vibrates, then back off.
Step III -- KI
Increase the integral constant, KI, until system vibrates,
then back off.
