Dear Forum

can you advise me if this is possible with 2 x V20 drive?

I want to Split range a controller output across 2 x V20 with one analogue input.

so for example if my controller output is 0-10v, 0-5v will operate one drive from 0-100%, then 5-10v will operate a second drive 0-100%

hope you can help

regards Gerry

The programming ability (BICO) of the V20 is extensive. I have not used the V20 too many times, so cannot detail what you need. But how about some ideas?

I propose you see if it is possible to have DRIVE1 take in the analog and then feed it out through its analog output to DRIVE2. DRIVE1 can preprocess the value to scale the analog with a -5V bias.

Additionally DRIVE1 can generate a digital output that switches for analog reading above 5V. This digital signal can feed to DRIVE1 to stop the drive; to DRIVE2 to start it.
