Compare functionality is supported on hardware revisions D, DB, DA, and higher depending on the drive type. Check the label on the side of the drive to ensure the AKD meets one of the following requirements.

AKD Type	Hardware Revision Supported
AKD	Revision D or higher
PDMM	Revision DB or higher
AKD-T-IC"Integrated Circuits" Miniaturized electronic circuits (consisting mainly of semiconductor devices, as well as passive components) that have been manufactured in the surface of a thin substrate of semiconductor material	Revision DA or higher

Description

Use this keyword to arm or disarm a Compare setpoint. The setpoint value will only be compared against the Compare source (CMPx.SOURCE) if that setpoint is armed. If they match, an output pulse will be generated.

An error will be generated if CMPx.SOURCE, CMPx.MODBOUND1, CMPx.MODBOUND2, CMPx.WIDTH, and CMPx.MODEN are not set prior to enabling CMPx.ARM. If CMPx.SETPOINT is not set prior to enabling CMPx.ARM, the compare will trigger at the last set value, or the default value of 0 if the drive has been power cycled.

Example

The following example arms setpoint 3 for CMP1.
