Test signal generator (TG)

Optimization of control loops with the TG

It is possible to form various signal types and transfer them to the control. This function is independent of the control mode, and acts directly on the control. Signal types can also be combined.
The delta signal form is additionally available, though at present it is only accessible via the parameter editor. The parameters are recorded in the parameter list.



PRBS signal

The PRBS signal is suitable to achieve a system excitation with a high bandwidth by using a test signal. A binary output sequence with parameterizable amplitude P 1509 SCD_TSIG_ RBSAmp and a "random" alternating frequency is generated with the aid of a looped-back shift register.
