Modes of operation
The Triol AT08 variable frequency drives are able to operate in both the manual and automatic modes.
the drive processes the output frequency value, which has been set via the control console or automated control system. The rotation frequency of electric motor is thereby controlled.
The frequency is regulated in a closed loop system. The control is implemented in two ways: - By using an embedded PID control. This approach is based on signals from feedback sensors (speed sensor, sensor of process-dependent parameter, etc.);
- By using a mathematical model of the controlled process (without sensors).
Variants of parameter settings and controlling drive’s operation in manual mode are described below:
|
Local control is implemented by:
|
Remote control is implemented by:
|
|
Embedded control console

Remote control console
|
|
