Re: Current Control

Yes, I have firmware version 91.

I fiddled with the sliders, but didn't really get anywhere.
Your method of tuning is actually perfectly acceptable and common, and it's just an approximation of Ziegler-Nichols.

However, the oscillation point seems to change on me as I change the setpoint, and that's rather puzzling. (When I have the setpoint at 1A, every P value seems to either cause oscillation, or no output at all.)

Re: Current Control

I was driving a CIM, with a set point in the 4-10 amp range. I never tried driving it at just an amp. You might be hitting resolution limits - maximum current is somewhere in the 60+Amp range, I don't recall what one count translates to.
