| Bi-Polar analog speed control |
In general a majority of motor/drive applications only require a single direction of rotation. On occasion there are applications that provide a bi- polar analog speed command. The Commander SK (and SE) only have a uni-polar input. This application note will discuss a method for the Commander SK ( and SE ) to accept a bi-polar speed reference as a means of providing bi-directional motor control.

In general a majority of motor/drive applications only require a single direction of rotation. On occasion there are applications that provide a bi- polar analog speed command. The Commander SK (and SE) only have a uni-polar input. This application note will discuss a method for the Commander SK ( and SE ) to accept a bi-polar speed reference as a means of providing bi-directional motor control.
