2.6.4Solenoi d outputs and am bie nt te m p era ture
If only one solenoid output is powered at a t im e, t hen there are no restric t ions and the single solenoid current may
reach the maximum current according to the Elect ric al S pecificat ions over the whole temperature range.
7
But t he total solenoid current of simult aneously powered s olenoids depends on the ambient t emperature.
Exceeding this current limit will t rip the overcurrent protecti on ci rcuit , the SD7 falls into the failure state and blocks
all function.
Solenoids can be powered simultaneously, i. e. with t wo channels with one solenoid eac h or with inverted solenoid
outputs.
If s olenoids are powered with more vol t age than their nominal volt age and are so over-energized, then at fast
switc hing-on, the overcurrent protect ion may t rip and the SD7 may fall into fail ure stat e and block all function.
The following graphics s hows t he maxim um allowed total solenoid current over ambient t emperature when both
solenoids are powered at the same time.

4.1Introduction
· All inputs and outputs have to be contacted through t he terminal screw block
· At the device front panel, there is a USB interfac e, t hrough which t he parameterisation and t he diagnostic s c an
be made by using the PC-Parameterisation software PA S O
· In the fac tory , the S D7-Elect ronics are adjusted with t he default values. The adjustment to the valves being
used, has to performed by t he user.
· Wandfluh c an c reate application specific parameters files in acc ordance to cust omer wish.
4.2Description of the Function
T he SD7-Electronics has two channe ls.
Each channel has a command value input and one or two solenoid outputs. The adjustable parameters are
organiz ed in function blocks , which are displayed in PAS O as small boxes . The following settings can be made per
channel in these func t ion blocks:
52

58
59
60
61
63
64
68
69
70
Each channel is independent. Only the limits by the hardware are t o be c onsidered. For ex ample, if t he W andfluhElect ronic s has only two solenoid outputs . it's not possible to operat e two c hannels with each two s olenoids . In
this c as e the maximum is at t wo channels with one solenoid output per c hannel or one c hannels with t wo s olenoid
outputs per channel. The parameterisation software PASO automatically detects how many solenoids can be
select ed with the c urrent setti ngs.
The ass i gnment of the analog and digital in- and outputs c an freel y be made by the user. Regarding inputs it is also
possible to adjust a multiple allocation. That means digital and analogue inputs can be allocated to multiple
channels (refe r to section " A s s ignment of t he inputs/ outputs "). Digital in- and out puts which are set or reset by
softwar e (ref e r to section "Configuration - Digital E/A") will be displayed with blue text color in the main window.
Operati n g Instructions to Amplifier Electronics SD7
The comm and value can be a voltage-, a c urrent-, a frequency- or a PWM-s ignal. t he s ignals are individually
adjustable.
T he solenoid outputs includes a pulse-width-modulated current control with superimposed dither signal. These
outputs c an control either proportional or switching solenoids. The current measurement can be switc hed on or off.
The minimal and maximal solenoid currents or pulse widths can be adjusted separately. When using switching
solenoids a fully adjustable power reduction func tion is available.
Parameters are set by means of the parameterising s oftware P A S O. Changed parameters are stored in a nonvolatile memory in order to have t hem available after the Wandfluh-Electronics have been switched on again. The
paramet erising s oftware PAS O provides to s ave t he set t ings an values of the parameter in a file, which always
allows to do a download or an analysis.
Some function blocks are able to generate error messages. The function block "Error evaluation" (refer to sec tion
"Error evaluat ion") pick s up all error mes s ages. This function block manages the error handling of t he W andfluh-
68
Electronics.
The process data are displayed online (r efer to section " A naly sis_S how values"). This helps in c as e of support
88
and diagnost ics.
4.3Characteristic opti m i sat i on
The SD7 electronics are provided with a possibili ty to optimis e the c harac teristic “Preset value input – s olenoid
current out put”. The user is able to creat e a charac t eristi c (e.g. a l inearised characterist ic ) which matc hes his own
application. The characteristic optimis at ion c an be turned on or off (refer to “Parameters_Solenoid driver”).

4.5Operati ng mode
The Wandfluh-El ect ronics have 2 operating modes. The following table describes, what c an be done in t he different
operati ng modes and how t hey c an be acti vat ed:
The current operating mode is displayed in the status line (refer t o section "Starting of P A S O").

4.6Analogue inputs
· The applied analogue signal is digit ised on analogue inputs 1 and 2 in the 10-Bit A / D c onverter and on analogue
3 and 4 (only E nhanced version) in the 16-Bi t A /D converter.
Attention:By t he input range 4 . . . 20mA, t he resolution is < 10-Bit resp. 16-Bit!!
· Differen tial i np uts
All analogue inputs are different i al inputs . Differential inputs are used if the ground potential of t he ext ernal
command value generator does not agree with the ground on the W andfluh-El ec t ronics . The differenti al inputs are
not galvanically s eparated; they are made for ground potential differences up to 1.5V between the – (minus)
connection of the different ial input and the 0V-ground of the Wandfluh-Elect ronics . If the different ial input is
intended to use like an analogue input against ground, t he - (minus) connection of the differenti al input mus t be
connected to the ground of the Wandfluh-Elec tronics. In this c as e please att end that t he solenoid current can
cause a voltage drop between the Wandfluh-Elec t ronics and the power supply. It is recommended to connect the
- (minus) connection as near as possible to the power supply.
· Filtering
Each analog input can be individuall y filtered (refer to "Configuration_Filter for analog i nputs"). Thereby analog
noise (e.g. voltage peaks) are attenuat ed. The filtering is done wit h t he function "exponential smoothing", where
the speed / response time of the fil t er can be determined wit h t he parameter "smoothing factor". A high value at
the smoothing factor results in a high degree of filtering, but a long response t im e, which will delayed the reading
of the analog input. A small value at t he sm oothing factor results in a sm all degree of filtering, but a fast
response time. So t he "smoothing factor" must be selec t ed as compromise between high degree of filtering and
fast response time.
Operati n g Instructions to Amplifier Electronics SD7
Attention:
Until a cablebreak will be detected, a time delay of about 100ms will pass. During this time, the
cy li nder can make unintentional movements or unintent i onal force changes
4.7Cablebreak detecti on
The c ommand value input c an be det ected for a cablebreak (only if Signal ty pe = V oltage, Current, Frequency or
PWM). Therefore, a lower and an upper cablebreak limit c an be adjusted in the box Signal s c aling.A cablebreak
is detec t ed, if the input si gnal is smaller than the lower c ablebreak limit or higher than the upper c ablebreak limi t .
If an cablebreak is detected, the internal error "E-1" (for command value) resp. " E-6" (for feedback value) i s act ive
(refer to section "Error evaluat i on").
68
The following c onditions had to be performed:
· The parameter "Signal type" m ust be on "Voltage", "Current" , " F requency" or "PWM" (refer to section Signal
scaling)
· The parameter "Cablebreak" must be on "On" (refer to section S i gnal sc aling)
52
52
· The parameters " Lower cablebreak limt " and "Upper cablebreak limit" mus t be adjusted (refer t o section Signal
scaling)
· An acti on must be assigned to the error "E-1" (refer t o section "E rror evaluat ion")

· Analog output (only Enhanced ve rsion)
The analog out put can be assigned to the following signals via the PASO SD7 (depending on the control mode,
different signals are available):
- command value for the solenoid driver
- scaled comm and value
- scaled feedback value (only Controll er version and with clos ed loop control modes)
- scaled control deviation (only Controll er version and with closed loop control modes)
The si gnal at the analog output c an be used for driving a valve with integrated electronics which has a volt age
interfac e. The out put l evel c an be adjusted (refer to section "Analog output").

7.2Assignment of the i nputs/outputs
The allocation of inputs and outputs is not fixed. The user can choose itselfs which input and output is ass i gned to
which func t i on. The following selection is available:

The selec t i on "not us ed" m eans t hat no input or output will be assigned.
The selection "IntSig1 .. . IntSig8" means internal s ignals. This allows e.g. t o link a digital output to a digital input
without an external connection.
Wit h the digital inputs, digital outputs, internal s ignals and analog inputs, a double allocation is allowed. For
example, DigInp1 can be used for enable c hannel 1 and channel 2 at the same t ime. Inputs and outputs with a
double alloc at ion will be displayed with a yellow background.
Wit h the s olenoid outputs and analog outputs, a double allocation is not allowed. If the s elect ed output is already
occupied, an error message appears.
Digital in- and outputs and int ernal signals, which are set or reset by s oft ware (refer to sect ion "Configuration -
Digital E/A ") will be displayed with blue text color in the main window.

7.3Parameter inconsistency
The parameter s ettings can be made via the PC-Parameterisation software PASO or via the fieldbus (only i f the
Wandfluh-Elec tronics has t he fieldbus option). In any case, t he current parameter values will be dis played in the
PASO
If a parameter value will be changed through the fieldbus, t his new value does not c orres pond with the displayed
value in the PASO. In this c as e, t he following m essage appears:
If the answer is ”Yes ”, then the parameters will be read-in from t he W andfluh-El ect ronics . P oss ible open parameter
windows in the PASO will be closed automatically. If a parameter value will be changed through the manual
operati on terminal after the read-in of t he new parameters, t his mes sage will appear again.
If the answer is ”No”, then the displayed parameter values in the PASO do not c orrespond to t he c urrent parameter
value on the Wandfluh-Electronics. This will be displayed in the status line in the field "Parameter
inconsistency" (refer to sec tion "S tarting of PASO"). If a parameter value will be changed through t he manual
108
operati on termi nal again, no further message will be appear i n the P AS O. B ut it's always possible to c hange also
paramet er values through the PASO.

Chara cte ri stic optimisation:
This menu enables the optimisat ion of the s ol enoid current adjus tment of DSV -E lectronics. A graphic is shown
which represents t he characterist ic “Preset value (X-axis) – Solenoid current (Y-axis )”. The graphic c onsist s of 11
points, the first and the last point (100%) are preset.
The other graphic points can be adjus ted either by tracking with the mous e or by entering the value at t he numeric
inputs. The res oluti on of the X-values is in %, those of the Y-values in 0.1 %. The X-values cannot be falling.
At shipping ex work (default s ett ings) t he preset value is transmit ted proport ionally t o t he solenoid c urrent (default
characteristi c ). In this case the characterist ic “Preset value (X-ax is – Solenoid current (Y-axis )” i s li near. The same
behaviour oc curs at any time when the characteristi c optimisati on is turned off.
By m odify ing the default linear charac teristic “Preset value (X-axi s) – S olenoid current (Y-axis )” e.g. a progress iv
valve characteristic “Current - Flow/Press ure” can be compensated in such a way that a linear relation between
preset value and Flow / P ressure is realised. The characteristic “Preset value (X-axis ) – Solenoid current (Y-axis )”
in this case s hould be adjusted in the “opposite progress i ve” direction (refer to the example characterist i c below).
Additionally t he characterist ic optim isation must be turned on. This will be shown in t he PAS O-St atus li ne (refer to
section "S t arting of PASO").
108
The solenoid current values are in the range Imin (0%) up t o Imax (100%). Imin and Imax are adjusted in t he m enu
“Solenoid current ”. A t an input value whic h is between two graphic points, t he solenoid current is interpolated. If t wo
or more preset values overlap, at t he c orrespondi ng Preset value the highest current value is c alculated.
In the case of an error i n t he characterist i c values, t he c haracterist ic optimisation is automat ically turned off.
