DC DRIVE OVERVIEW
MOTOR DRIVES 2-3
EXERCISE OBJECTIVE
• Familiarize yourself with the DC Drive.• Set the DC Drive parameters to control the DC Motor.
DISCUSSION
The DC Drive of your training system is shown in Figure 2-2. It is a non-regenerativeDC drive, the most conventional type in common use. It is capable of controllingmotor speed and torque in one direction only.

Parameters
The DC Drive can be adapted to fit the motor and load characteristics. It is adaptedby setting the value of some parameters using trim-pots. The operating parametersthat can be set are:
Minimum speed;Maximum speed;IR compensation; Current limit;Acceleration time (on the 220 V/240 V version only);Deceleration time (on the 220 V/240 V version only).
Minimum speed
The minimum speed sets the minimum speed of the motor by setting the minimumoutput voltage of the drive. It is set using the MIN trim-pot as follows:
Rotate the potentiometer of the DC Drive to the minimum speed position;Set the MIN trim-pot so that motor runs at the desired minimum speed.

MOTOR DRIVES 2-5
Maximum speed
The maximum speed sets the maximum speed of the motor by setting the maximumoutput voltage of the drive. The maximum speed value is determined to fit the loadrequirements, or to prevent the motor from rotating at a speed exceeding the ratedvalue. It is set using the MAX trim-pot as follows:
Rotate the potentiometer to the maximum speed position;Set the MAX trim-pot so that motor runs at the desired maximum speed.
The IR compensation and Current limit parameters are explained in the nextexercise.
Procedure Summary
In the first two parts of this exercise, you will set the MIN and MAX trim-pots tospecific speed values.
In the third part, you will plot the speed versus voltage curve.
In the fourth part, you will demonstrate the effects of inverting the shunt windings ofa DC motor.
