I do some basic PLC programming, but have been asked to interface a FUJI Frequency Inverter to control the speed and direction of a motor. I have never interfaced with a frequency inverter before so this is very new to me.
Application:
Move a pallet (loaded or unloaded) along a single axis in two directions (i.e. back and forth).
Requirements:
1. Control Direction
2. Obtain a maximum speed during the long run.
3. Ramp up to max speed from a stopped position.
4. Ramp down from max speed to a stopped position.
I have been reading Omron and Fuji documentation but they assume you know what the hell you are doing - which I do not. I don't know if there is an Omron module(s) that I should use to interface with the Inverter.
The FUJI FRN2.2CTS-4C has a potentiometer inputs. I suspect I will need an Omron analog output module (which one?) to connect to the FUJI so that I can control the frequency (i.e. motor speed).
Can anyone give me some advice?
Is there a specific Omron module(s) I should use?
What traps should I be watch out for?
Recommended documentation?
