B.3.16.38 Position TO Loop Compensators
The Position TO Loop Compensators panel allows the user to set the configuration of the TO loop gains
and to see the feedback values.
The time-optimal compensator is a non linear compensator that uses a square root function of the position
error, to give optimal deceleration performance.
CONFIGURATION
• Ka-gain (rad/s^2) → The a-gain of the TO compensator (rad/s^2).
• Kp-gain (Ki) → The p-gain of the TO compensator (1/s).
• K i-gain (Kp) → The i-gain of the TO compensator (1/s^2).
• Vel. Pi comp. p-gain (Kp) → The p-gain of the velocity loop PI compensator used in position
mode (Nm/rad/s). This is separate to the velocity loop compensator used in velocity mode.
• Vel. Pi comp. i-gain (Ki) → The i-gain of the velocity loop PI compensator used in position
mode (Nm/rad). This is separate to the velocity loop compensator used in velocity mode.
• position loop rate divider → The rate divider of the position loop mode – the number of current
loop samples per position loop sample.
FEEDBACK
• demand → The requested value of the position.
• position (rad) → The actual value of the position
• time opt. comp. error → The difference between position and demand.
• velocity command → velocity command prior to acceleration limiting (the output from the PI
compensator)
• velocity command (previous) → velocity command after acceleration limiting
• actual velocity (filtered) (rad/s) → low pass filtered velocity
• extd vel. comp. error → difference between actual velocity and demanded velocity
• torque cmd (vel comp o/p) (A) → the output from the velocity compensator
• torque cmd (gen filter o/p) (A) → the output from the velocity compensator after passing
through the generic filter block
