I asked this question over at the A-D forum, but the response time 'round here is much better...
When using the front panel potentiometer to control speed on an A-D GS1 drive, is there a way to limit maximum motor speed?
IOW, "scale" the pot?
Right now, it gives 0 to 60Hz, but I want to change the range to something like 0 to 30Hz to prevent some bozo from accidentally exceeding the mechanical capabilities of the machine it's driving... bonkhead
I know you can scale the analog input, but I'm not sure if there's a way to scale the 'on-board' pot. Worst case is I'll throw an external pot on the thing, but that seems stupid since there's already one just sitting there...
Any ideas?
