Maxpak
(OP)
I am trying to regulate the speed, and torque settings for a MaxPak III with a PLC. These were origionally controlled by speed pots.
The problem lies with the fact that the drive uses 0-15 Vdc as its control voltage. My signal conditioner is 0-10 Vdc. Has anyone run into this before?

RE: Maxpak
The way I have it in my head is that I would need to take the 15v from the drive, bring it to 10 Vdc. Then run it through my signal conditioner. Then take the 0-10 vdc from the signal conditioner and rescale it to a 0-15v output back to the drive.
Am I missing something obvious?

RE: Maxpak
(For a 1725 type application) Seems like you should be able to set something like 15V = 2585RPM so at 10V you have 1725RPM.
Or am I missing the whole point?
