HI/LO GAIN SRC 
(High / Low Gain Source) 
This parameter determines the source of the 
high / low gain switch.  
The speed regulator high / low gain function 
was developed in response to high 
performance elevator requirements where the 
resonant nature of the elevator system 
interferes with the speed response of the drive.  
When the speed response (gain) is set to high 
levels, the resonant characteristics created by 
the spring action of the elevator ropes can 
cause car vibration. To solve this problem, the 
speed regulator is set to a low enough 
response (gain) so that the resonant 
characteristics of the ropes are not excited.  
This is accomplished by controlling the 
sensitivity or response of the speed regulator 
via the high / low gain switch and gain reduce 
multiplier.   
By using the gain reduce multiplier, the user 
can specify a lower response (gain) for the 
speed regulator when the drive is at higher 
speeds.  The gain reduce multiplier (GAIN 
REDUCE MULT(A1)) tells the software how 
much lower, as a percentage, the speed 
regulator response (gain) should be. 
The high / low gain switch determines when 
the drive is in ‘low gain’ mode. In the ‘low gain’ 
mode, the gain reduce multiplier has an effect 
on the speed regulator’s response (gain).  
The drive allows for the high / low gain switch 
to be controlled either externally or internally.  
The high / low gain source parameter (HI/LO 
GAIN SRC) allows for this external or internal 
selection. 
The high / low gain switch can be controlled 
externally by either: 
•  a logic input 
•  the serial channel.    
The high / low gain switch can also be 
controlled internal by: 
•  the gain change level parameter     (GAIN 
CHNG LEVEL), which defines a 
percentage of contract speed. 
With the drive set to internal control, the speed 
regulator will go into ‘low gain’ mode when the 
drive senses the motor is above a defined 
speed level.  The defined speed level is 
determined by the gain change level 
parameter.   
An example of internal high / low gain control 
is shown below. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
High / Low Gain Example 
Elevator Speed Regulator (Ereg) 
The use of the Elevator Speed Regulator 
allows the overall closed loop response 
between speed reference and speed to be 
ideal for elevator applications. The desirable 
features of the Elevator Speed Regulator are: 
•  no overshoot at the end of accel period 
•  no overshoot at the end of decel period  
 
One characteristic of the Elevator Speed 
Regulator is that during the accel / decel 
period the speed feedback does not match the 
speed reference creating a speed error or 
tracking delay.  As an example, the Elevator 
Speed Regulator’s speed response is shown 
for a ramped speed reference below.

Ereg Example 
The Elevator Speed Regulator is tuned by: 
•  System Inertia parameter (INERTIA(A1)), 
which is easy to obtain by using the drive 
software to estimate the system inertia.
