PID in variable frequency drives can be very intimidating. There are so many parameters to keep track of. In this video we'll show you an easy way to manage that using a free tool we provide and once you step back and take a high level look, you will realize that PID isn't so bad after all.

I’ve been wanting to build something like this for years but with a electric bicycle, a speed sensor on the wheels and a click plc. Sadly I have almost all the parts but no time 😂 imagine a electric bike with a motor drive, a click plc and a hmi between the handlebars for hp display and cruise control using a pid function, secretly hoping you guys could build one so I can copy it with AD parts 😂👌👍 you can find 0-10 k potentiometer handlebar throttles online for “electric motorcycles”. That can go into a plc input. If you guys are able to pull this off you could make a video showcasing the plc’s quick scan time (from the speed sensor), it’s analog inputs (from the throttle potentiometer) it’s pid control function, it’s Ethernet capability to talk to the hmi and drive, all for a plc that starts at $69 and free software. If you guys weren’t so far away I would even offer to help build it 😂 but I’m here in Texas and would need time off from work

Hi Blake, That would be a fun project - Let us know if you ever get the time to work on it, we may be able to help ... BTW, did you see the CLICK PID video series?

[@blakegardner2339]

AutomationDirect.com yes and it made me want to build it even more 😂 lots of overtime money but very little time to figure out all the integration of the components. I know you guys used to have articles on your website of the stuff people built with AD components. Maybe one day I can build it for you guys.

The link to the tool is broken. Hope you can fix it soon.

[@automationdirect]

Pyrolysis lab, The link is correct, for some reason KZbin is breaking the link because of the spaces. Please copy this URL and place into your browser. cdn.automationdirect.com/static/video-resources/drives/GS20X PID Config Tool.xlsx

[@cdarwin81]

Will it work with a 4-20mA pressure transducer?

[@automationdirect]

Carlos Velez, yes, the drive offers 2 analog inputs, one of them can be configured for voltage or current (4-20ma input). You can find the specifications for the drive here: cdn.automationdirect.com/static/specs/gs20drives.pdf Thank you for watching our videos.

The link to the configuration tool does not work. I see that someone else commented on this, but I am not able to see the reply for some reason.

[@automationdirect]

The link is correct, for some reason KZbin is breaking the link up because of the spaces. Please copy this URL and place into your browser. "cdn.automationdirect.com/static/video-resources/drives/GS20X PID Config Tool.xlsx"

[@automationdirect]

We just uploaded a new version of the file (the previous version had spaces in the URL, apparently KZbin doesn't like that anymore ..). Try again and see if it works now.
