Operating instructions
NOTE
If a feedback is not used, its source must be set to No
Function [0]. Par. 20-20 Feedback Function determines
how the three possible feedbacks will be used by the
PID Controller.
20-01 Feedback 1 Conversion
Option: Function:
This parameter allows a conversion function to be
applied to Feedback 1.
[0]
*
Linear Linear [0] has no effect on the feedback.
[1] Square
root
Square root [1] is commonly used when a pressure
sensor is used to provide flow feedback
(

).
[2] Pressure
to
temper-
ature
Pressure to temperature [2] is used in compressor
applications to provide temperature feedback using
a pressure sensor. The temperature of the refrigerant
is calculated using the following formula:

,
where A1, A2 and A3 are refrigerant-specific
constants. The refrigerant must be selected in
par. 20-30 Refrigerant. Par. 20-21 Setpoint 1 through
par. 20-23 Setpoint 3 allow the values of A1, A2 and
A3 to be entered for a refrigerant that is not listed in
par. 20-30 Refrigerant.
[3] Pressure
to flow
Pressure to flow is used in applications where the air
flow in a duct is to be controlled. The feedback
signal is represented by a dynamic pressure
measurement (pitot tube).

[4] Velocity
to flow
Velocity to flow is used in applications where the air
flow in a duct is to be controlled. The feedback
signal is represented by an air velocity measure-
ment.

20-02 Feedback 1 Source Unit
Option: Function:
This parameter determines the unit that is used for
this Feedback Source, prior to applying the
feedback conversion of par. 20-01 Feedback 1
Conversion. This unit is not used by the PID Control-
ler.
