1. Description and Design
Applications (general)
Amplifier card for driving proportional directional
valves, pressure and flow control valves. Suitable
for solenoid systems up to 3.5 A. Valves with spool
position feedback, and external closed loop control
circuits (e.g. pressure regulating circuits) can be
implemented with the closed loop control options.
Suitable for use on NC axes, especially where the
requirements for dynamic response and accuracy
are high.
Special Application of VRD355
Amplifier card without the front panel display and
operating elements for cost effective applications

1.3. Connection
‘Connect unit in accordance with terminal connec-
tion diagram on page 9. The supply voltage for the
unit at terminals 26bd = OV and 32bd = + U, is 18V
to 30VDC, residual ripple < 10%.
Output stages are electronically protected against
short circuit and excess current. The amy
should be protected with a quick-acting preliminary
fuse (see technical data). Connection of solenoids
is made at teminals 22bdz and 28bd2 for solenoid
A, terminals 24bdz and 30bdz for solenoid B. Ter-
minals bdz are bridged on the amplifier. Connection
should, however, be made to all three terminals on
‘account of the current carrying capacity.
Ino electrical isolation of the logic inputs or outputs
is required, terminal 26bd must be bridged to ten
nal 2d and terminal 322 to terminal 32bd,
The assembly contains electronic
components. Incorrect handling or
operation can lead to damage through
electrostatic discharge (ESD). Only
trained personnel should work with the unit. All
safety instructions must be observed. If the card is
disconnected whilst the power supply is still dam-
lage may result. Avoid such actions at all cost.
General
Devices from the VRD350/VRD355 series are class
‘A equipment and thus only suitable for industrial
surroundings.
The distance between a source of interference
(device emitting interference) and an interference
sink (a device under the influence of interference)
is of decisive importance. The interfering field of the
source reduces the greater the distance between
this and the sink. In other words, the closer a device
is placed to a source of interference, the greater the
incidental amplitudes. For this reason, there should
be a minimum gap of 0.25 m between the amplifiers,
and strong sources of interference.
|AVRO UKINOD RH 02.06
The following devices are to be regarded as strong
sources of interference:
* Switching power supply units
+ Frequency converters
+ Drive modules
+ Mains filters with wiring (even if screened)
* AC/DC commutator motors
‘+ Motor cables (even if screened)
+ Switched inductances, even when anti-inter-
ference measures have been taken (solenoid
valves, contactors, relays, brakes, etc.)
(One of the most common input points is the wiring.
This influence can be minimised. Interfering cables
should therefore be laid at least 0.25m away from
cables susceptible to interference. Parts of the
‘amplifier wiring may be susceptible to interference
(command signal, actual value, solenoid cables,
etc.). Parallel laying of cables is very critical. The
necessary distance has to be increased if cables
are laid parallel over longer distances (> 10 m).
The influence is least when cables cross, particu-
larly i this is at an angle of 90°. Nor should cables
susceptible to interference ever be laid parallel to
motor cables, in particular over longer distances,
and must always cross these at an angle of 90°.
However, interference can also arise trom cables in
the amplifier wiring system, in particular solenoid
cables.
Examples of devices which are particularly sus
ceptible to interferences:
+ Office PC's
+ Sensors with small output voltages
+ Proximity switches (capacitive)
+ Audio equipment (TV, Hi-Fi, radio, etc.)
+ Devices which do not comply with EMC guide-
lines.

Special Notes on Wwiring and Electrical Cabi-
net Design
‘The following rules and tips by no means claim to
be complete. Since various electronic components
are used ina variety of different ambient conditions,
these guidelines only represent a compromise. The
actual design of the wiring also depends on the
interference emission and resistance to jamming
of the individual components.
+ Use screened and twisted pairs of cables for
the solenoid connections. The screen must be
earthed (PE) at both ends. The capacity should
be 120pF/m. Cables must be > 1.5mm? for a
length up to 100m and > 2.5mm? for a length
‘over 100m.
* Digital signal lines are to be connected at both
ends to PE with a good conductivity. Command
signal and actual value connections should have
screened and twisted cables. These analog
signal lines are to be connected to earth at
both ends with a good potential equalisation.
The screen connections should be made over
allarge area.
+ In environments with great interference, use
doublescreened cables for command signal
and actual value connections. The inner screen
is only earthed at one end, the outer screen at
both ends.
+ In the event of low-frequency interferences
on the analog signal lines (measured value
fluctuations), the screen should be connected
atone end. However, a corresponding potential
equalisation is preferred. (See also following
point)
+ The reference point for command signal and
actual value signals is analog OV (terminal 262).
All setpoint and actual value transmitters are to
be connected to this terminal so as to avoid zero
shifts and incorrect measurements,
+ When replacing older devices, the non-fused
earthed conductor (PE) should be connected
to terminal 18d or 18b. If ripple voltages oc-
cur, connect 16b or 20b to PE. In this case the
connection to 18bd must be removed. (But:
preferably make a potential equalisation!)
+ Use only cables with a Cu screening grid and
a covering of > 85% whenever possible. Avoid
screening films.
+ The screen may not be interrupted along the
entire length of the cable. If contactors, safety
AVRO UK:NOD RH 0206
switches, chokes, etc. have to be used in the
Wiring, the installation of a metallic housing with
a high HF attenuation may be necessary.
Screen terminals are to be connected over a
large area to the soreen rail.
The screen rail is to be installed close to the
cable duct in the electrical cabinet.
The metallic parts of the electrical cabinet
are to be connected with high conductivity on
large areas. Avoid painted surfaces. Make the
desired connection with mechanical aids such
as scratch plates if necessary. The doors are
to be connected to the cabinet via the shortest
possible homogeneous tapes (multiple).
Solenoid valves, contactors, relays, brakes, etc.,
are to be suppressed directly at the respective
coil. Suitable suppression devices are, for ex-
ample, RC networks, diodes or varistors.
‘Analog and digital signal ines should preferably
enter the electrical cabinet from one side.
Unscreened lines of an electric circuit are to be
twisted
‘Auxiliary wires are to be earthed at both ends.
‘Avoid unnecessarily long lines. This keeps the
coupling inductances and capacities small
Wiring should preferably not be free in the cabi-
net. Cables, including auxiliary cables, should
be laid as close as possible to mounting plates
and the cabinet housing.
Inthe event of an inadequate potential equalisa-
tion between the soreen connections, a balano-
ing conductor = 10 mm? should be laid parallel
to the screen to reduce the screen current. A
multiple connection of the screen to the cabinet
casing and thus PE is generally possible. A mul-
tiple connection of the screen is also permissible
outside the cabinet.
It filters are fitted, these should be installed
close to the source of interference and with a
good surface contact on the cabinet or mounting
plate,
It converters are used, converter filters must be
provided. Variable speed motors may have to be
connected using screened lines.
All further instructions of the converter manu-
facturer are to be observed.

Application, Construction and Operation of
ABG35S
‘The ABGASS plug-in control unit is used in con-
junction with the VRD355 proportional amplifier.
It can easily be plugged in and removed again
when parameters have been set. Combination of
the VRD355 and ABG3SS provides the optimum
solution for price sensitive applications together
with ease of operation, especially where a number
of amplifier cards are used e.g. for applications in
production line machines or multi-axis NC ma-
chines. When the ABG35S is removed, unauthor-
ized access to the set parameters is effectively
prevented.
No additional components of any kind are required
for operation of the ABG35S with the amplifier
card,

2.4, Diagnosis
Test Sockets
The sockets for |, and |, can be used to measure
the solenoid currents independently. The volt-
age at the socket is roughly proportional to the
solenoid current. The voltage is around 1V at 1A.
At the socket $6 for the sum total of both analog
‘command signals (SWS and SW6), the measured
value appears according to the input signals. At
the socket for the actual value (A), the measured
value is proportional to the actual value signal. The
measured value is analogous to display U11
Internal Diagnostic Parameters (U-Parame-
ters)
Internally computed values can be displayed on the
7-segment display during normal operation and to
aid commissioning and trouble shooting. Values
should be interpreted as voltage or current with a
resolution standardised in the display at 10mV to

tions can be taken from the block diagrams. For

H-Parameters (auxiliary parameters)
ParametersH1 and H2 are used in the commission-
ing phase or in test and measurement sequences
for simple input of command signals (command
signal simulation). This allows a command signal to
be input independent of external inputs (command
signal 5/ command signal 6 or selection of St to
S4 and a direction), without requiring additional
external circuitry.
The enable signal must be present so
é} that the output stages are active and
current can flow.
Parameters can be set during operation. Any al-
toration with 1’ and U is immediately effective. The
polarity sign shows which of the two output stages
or solenoids the command signal acts on.
Positive sign Solenoid B
Negative sign Solenoid A
All command signals are also additive in the H
mode. This means that when command signals
are input (internally $1 to $4 and externally SWS to
We), these are added!o active H-parameters, tak-
ing into account the signs. By switching over from H
1 t0 H2, or the reverse, it is possible to switch over
to different values - also with opposite sign.

3. Function
3.1. Command signals
In the standard setting with P11 = 1 positive com-
mand signals activate solenoid B and negative
values solenoid A.
Intemal Command Signals ($1 to 4)
+ Four intemal set values ($1, S2, $3 and $4) can
be selected with an associated direction "+" or
+ These inputs are optically isolated and can be
selected by means of a programmable control-
ler.
+ When electrical isolation is not required, ter-
minal 2d must be bridged by the customer to
terminal 26bd and terminal 322 to terminal
32bd.
+ Ifboth directions are selected at the same time,
none of the selected command signals will be
activated
+ If no direction is selected, no command signal
will be activated,
+ Allfour internal command signals are controlled
by the ramp function generator.
* Command signals are additive and are inde-
pendent of direction.
+ If several command signals are selected at the
same time, the total of these command signals
is subsequently processed.
+ Invarying combinations a total of 16 command
signals can be selected.
External Command Signal § and Command
Signal 6 (SWS and SW6)
+ The command signal inputs 5 and 6 are de-
signed for signals 0...+10 V.
+ These setpoints are also passed through the
ramp function generator (ramp) if 8 = 1. These
are also added to the other sotpoints. If E8 = 0
they bypass the ramp function generator and
have a direct and undelayed effect.
+ The input for command signal 6 is designed
as a differential amplifier (within the operating
voltage range +15V).
+ The signal for command signals 5 and 6 must
be standardised to 10V otherwise the A/D con-
verter is overloaded.
AVRO UK:NOD RH 0206
3.2. Ramp Function Generator $5 to SB
The command signals (S1...S4) are integrated
accordingly in the ramp function generator. The
ramp time for each change of direction can be set
independently. Times of 0...39.5 sec. can be set.
The ramp characteristic is assigned as follows:
$5 =0

3.3, Offset
Any drift of the drive can be corrected by the off-
set parameter P1. This functions as an additional
‘command signal. If the assembly is operated on
NC axes, the positioning can be adjusted to 0. The
value changes in steps of Sm, display shows every
second step in 10mV stages.

ence.

3.5, Adjustment of Current Gain
Current gain can be set independantly in param-
eters P3 (negative command signals, for solenoid
A) and P4 (positive command signals, for solenoid
B). (e.g. balancing for differential cylinders)
3.6. Dither
The dither signal can be matched to the valve by
parameters PS (amplitude) and P6 (frequency,
stepwise adjustment). The dither signal reduces
the hysteresis of spool movement. Generally, low
frequency signals are more effective, however they
may resultin noticeable disturbances (noise, oscil-
lations). Values between 80Hz (for systems with @
ow natural frequency) up to 327Hz (for systems
with @ high natural frequency) are recommend-
able. Sensible values for the amplitude are within
the range 0.20V to 1.2V. The dither signal reduces
the RMS value of the current noticeably at 10V
‘command signal.
3.7. Current Controller
Each solenoid is driven by a pulse width-modulated
current is measured and compared with the com-
‘mand signal in a controller with a Pl-characteristic.
The controller setting can be adjusted separately
for rise and fall in the current through parameters
E4 to E7.
Factory settings should only be changed
in exceptional circumstances after con-
sulting with the manufacturer.
3.8, Output Stages
* Output stages of PWM type are used to reduce
powerlosses.
+ The pulse frequency is approx. 1.35 kHz.
* Output stages are equipped with over ener-gisa-
tion and high-speed de-energisation to increase
the dynamic response.
* Output stages are designed for solenoids up to
354
+ The particular solenoid type used is set with
parameter E3 without any hardware changes.

3.9. Step Function
‘A step-like command signal is added in control
loops with spool valves to overcome the control
edge overlap. The step function can be adjusted
with parameter P7 in the negative range (solenoid
A) and with parameter P8 in the positive range
(solenoid B). Valves overlaps are normally around
10% to 15% of FS. The setting has a decisive ef-
fect on the quality of positioning for axis drives. The
‘amplification in the small signal range is essentially
determined by the step function. In the case of open
loop valves, the preset value is directly applied as,
a current. In the case of valves with spool position
feedback, the step function should be understood
as an additional position command signal. The cur-
rentis then adjusted accordingly to reach the speci
fied position. When changing between open loop
and closed loop vaives different command signals
may be necessary to achieve the same effect.
3.10. Control Circuits
(only with boards for closed loop system)
Feedback Signals and their Adjustment
The control can be activated or switched off with
E2. Feedback signals (0...10V, 0... 10V, 0...20mA
and 4...20mA) can be connected to terminal 10d.
For valves with spool position feedback using LVDT,,
two settings for asymmetric signals are available
(6V =2V or 7.5V =2V). The selection of the ap-
propriate signal type is done in the software with
parameter E11.
Selections 7 to 9 are for external pressure control
loops using pressure control valves with only one
solenoid. In these cases, the software limits U13
to the positive range (solenoid B),
Selections 1 and 5 are for valves with spool position
feedback using LVDTs (see page 11 for standard
connections using directional control valves).
Selections 2 to 4 and 6 are for external control
loops using directional control valves and suitable
feedback transducers. For selections 1 to 6 U13
can be positive or negative, depending on the
difference between feedback and set value. Then,
either solenoid A or B is energized.

back signals, jumper X7 on the feedback option
board must be set correctly (see page 11). The
shunt has a resistance of 100 Ohms. In case it is
necessary to shift the zero level, this can be done
by the feedback circuit using potentiometer R12,
(not possible for E11 = 3; 4; 6; 8 and 9).
3.11, To set Zero Point
General Case
Place the feedback transducer in its zero position
(see table 25/1) and set the amplifier to display U11.
Then set the displayed value to zero by adjusting
potentiometer R12 (enable must be switched on,
remove the solenoid connector). Il E11 = 7, 8, 9,
no values < 0.000 are shown.
With Position-Controlled Valves
Set initial currents (P9, P10) and then set E2 = 0
(control system not active). Switch on enable and
leave solenoid plug connected. Now bring actual
value transducer into zero position and switch
amplifier over to display U11. Now set display U11
to zero with potentiometer R12.
For setting the Range of the Feedback Signal
or setting the Feedback Gain
Adjust the feedback signal to its maximum value
for the particular transducer type. Set the gain with
potentiometer R11 so that display U11 on the ame
fier shows 9.90. These basic settings are carried out
in the factory for amplifiers ordered according to the
model codes. The feedback signal can be inverted
with parameter P12, and the set value signal with
P11, to change to a required control sense.
The actual value signal is now available at terminal
410b as an independent ,display ampitication value
(e.g. for externally calibrated display functions).
The adjustment is made independantly of the real
actual value gain. The following adjustments then
should be made:
+ Leave maximum value of actual value signal set
(see standarcising the actual value signal)
+ Now adjust potentiometer R13 so that the de-
sired value is present at terminal 10b (e.g. 6 V
for 60 bar),

3.12. Controller Parameters
‘When setting parameters P13 and P16,
the effect of parameter E2 and E14 must
be taken into account. E2 = 1 and E14
0 are used for position-controlled di-
rectional valves. E2 = 1 or 4 (with security function)
and E140 is selected for external control circuits,
depending on the gain required. E14 specifies an
additional amplification.
E2=1,2and4 .

‘The integral portion is determined by P17 whilst

Itis possible to fine tune the gain for the feed-
back signal by parameter P20 without changing

External Closed Loop
The structure of the closed loop is as in the fig-
ure on page 17. Other types of loop control, e.g
speed control for rotational drives, are connected
similarly.
The ramp function is useful in external closed-loop
systems to avoid overdriving the valve and con-
troller. E.g. in position control loops, the ramps
determine the speed of the drive
Using the equations given on page 22 enables
the computation of parameters from the loop gain
factor. In cases where these calculations are not
applicable, the parameters have to be determined
experimentally.
Avoid instability of the control loop dur-
ing the experimentation. This may cause
damage to the drive or machine.
Sequence with active Safety Function
During commissioning and after an e-stop, unde-
sired drive movements may occur. The drives are
normally run at a specified speed. This is imple-
mented by the internal ramp functions (S5 to S8).
If the e-stop chain is activated, either the supply
voltage or the enable is switched off. If only the
enable is switched off, you must pay attention to
the safety instructions on page 22! After restarting
(supply voltage or enable on), there is usually
large deviation. This then leads to unwanted move-
ments at the drive. The deviation is the result of the
ramp-controlled command signal start from zero.
AA specific software function ensures that uncon-
trolled movements are avoidable. To activate this
safety option, following parameter settings have to
be programmed:
Precondition: E1 6 and E2=4
This means, if E14 = 1...16, external
control loops are activated,
If E2=4 the safety function is switched
and E2 = 3 its not active.

External Control, Pressure Control
Pressure sensors can be designed in two or
three-wire technology. The sensor signal is either
a voltage from 0...10V or a current from 0...20mA
or 4...20mA. The parameter E11 should be sot
between 7 and 9. Apart from an adjustment to the
sensor signal, this also prevents controller param-
eters U13 <0 (see page 22), Wire break monitoring
is only possible with 4...20mA sensor signals.
When connecting pressure sensors we recom-
mend that great care be taken. The zero volt witing,
screening and PE connection are critical. Faults
in the signal can lead to a triggering of the wire
break monitor. Instabilities in the control loop are
also possible.
The scaling of the sensor signal is very important
fora high quality pressure control. This also guar-
antees a maximum exploitation of the resolution.
‘The maximum pressure to be controlled is decisive.
The closer the sensor signal is to 10V or 20mA,
the more favourable this is. In other words, the
measuring range of the sensor must be adapted to
the pressure range of the application. Furthermore,
the setting of the actual value adjustment must also
be given special attention. At the maximum pres-
sure to be controlled, almost 9.90V should appear
indisplay U11

The controller structure is shown in the figure on
page 17. Pressure control loops and their dynamics,
are essentially determined by the system capaci-
ties. A presetting in the works is impossible. The
parameters should be determined individually for
each application. Controller parameters can be
calculated from the loop ampilfications using the
‘equations on page 22. Should these calculations
prove impossible, the parameter values have to be
determined in tests.
Avoid instability of the control loop dur-
ing the experimentation. This may cause
damage to the drive or machine
Proportional pressure valves can oscillate on ac
count of the system. This behaviour may be signifi-
cant in the control loop, particularly through system
feedbacks. In certain circumstances, this may be
counteracted by adjusting the dither parameter (P5,
6). Variations to the dither frequency are generally
the most effective,
Remote Loop Control
Initially, the amplifier is in open loop operating
mode, The solenoid current is in direct proportion
to the command signal, resulting e.g. in a certain
pressure using pressure control valves. By chang-
ing the “reset ramp” input to high, e.g. by using an
external PLC, the amplifier is armed to function as
a loop controller.
The comparator monitors the actual value signal
In the case of pressure controls, mainly using
switching controllers, P21 is preferably used. If the
actual value now exceeds this comparative value,
the control switches on.
The output of the integral part (P17)
starts at the same time with the value
0. This is why negative oscillations may
occur due to the system.
Even if the actual value is under the switching
threshold, the control remains active. The signal
at the ,Ramp reset" input is required to switch off
the control. The control remains active until ,Reset
ramp" returns to OV.
AVRO UK:NOD RH 0206
The remote loop control is activated with E2 = 2.
Then P21 and P22 have the following meanings:
Display
P21 [Positive threshold a100..2. 990
factivates controler
P22| Negative threshold [00.298]
activates controler
lf E2=2 and P21 and P22 = 0, the control can be
directly activated with the "Reset ramp* input. This
permits a selective external activation and deactiva-
tion of the control.
IfE2=2, actual value U11 is used directly as a com-
parative value. This is different from the “Standard
‘comparator function”, where the control difference
U12 is decisive.
The Effects of the Time Delay P23 and P24:
P23 with remote loop controller must
always be set = 0.00, Other values give
no funtion,
P24 for a delay when switching in the
control with a switching controller. The control is,
switched on after a time delay of the preset time.
The status is displayed with the LED “Reset

Bypass Controller
See also block diagram on page 19,
The bypass controller is designed as a parallel
circuit of a P-amplifier with an PID-controller. The
processed command signal from U10 is hereby
used directly as an input to the P-amplifier, Follow-
ing calculation, the signal is added to the adjusting
signal of the PID controller. This is supplied with the
control deviation (U12).
This operating mode enables enhanced dynamic
Sotting E2 = 3 activates the bypass, P13 detor-
mines the gain of the bypass loop, P15 is without
any function and P16 sets the P-portion, P17 the
|-Portion and P18 the D-Portion of the PID-con-
troller.
3.13. Programmable Comparator Function
General Comparator Funktions
The function of the comparators and the compara-
tive value result from the combinations shown in
table below.
P21 and P22 can each be adjusted over the full
range from 0...+9.99V. The setting resolution is,
10mV. P21 is responsible for control deviations 20
‘and P22 for control deviations <0.
The window centre is defined by:
Set = Actual or [Set - Actual] = 0
The window itself by P21 and P22
The output dolay P23 and P24 (time for switching
output on and off) can be set in steps of 10ms with
the maximum value of 9.96 sec. The opto-decau-
pled comparator output signal can be monitored
at terminal 14b.
