Tuning of Open Loop Acceleration Co-Efficient A1

If the speed feedback is not able to reach open loop velocity reference even after increasing OL_ILIMIT, then the open loop A1 needs to be reduced. Further, the recommended setting is to keep OL_ACC_A1 equal to (MAX_SPEED/10)Hz/s.

For MOTOR1, the recommended setting is 50Hz/sec, if the setting is higher, there is a risk that handoff can fail. Higher OL_ACC_A1 increases the speed reference quickly, and the motor cannot track the speed reference with the given OL_ILIMIT, which can lead to handoff failure.

 Handoff is Not Proper Because
                    of Higher A1 (A1 = 50Hz/sec) Value Figure 3-4 Handoff is Not Proper Because of Higher A1 (A1 = 50Hz/sec) Value
Note: In the previous two failure cases, the waveform looks similar. So, first increase the OL_ILIMIT till motor rated current, and if still handoff is not proper, then decrease the open loop acceleration coefficient OL_ACC_A1 until handoff is proper.
