Interpolated Firing Pulses

 Thyristor or GTO?

Choice

Select Thyristor or GTO (IGBT).  

This parameter determines the format of the output control signal depending on whether the device being controlled is built with thyristors or GTOs.

Number of Pulses

Choice

Select One or Six.

Select One if a single thyristor or GTO is to be controlled.  Select six to provide output for a six-pulse, thyristor or GTO bridge.

Add Block/Deblock Signal?

Choice

Select Yes or No.  

If Yes is selected, the component will expect an additional external signal for blocking control, where:

• 0 = Block

• 1 = De-Block

Format of Pulse, Time Output:

Choice

Select To Individual Devices (6 outputs of dimension 2) or To Six Pulse Thyristor Group (2 outputs of dimension 6).

Select the first option to supply a custom built 6-pulse bridge with control signals.  Select the latter option if controlling the 6-Pulse Bridge component.  Note that this option is only enabled if Thyristor or GTO? | Thyristor and Number of Pulses | Six is selected.  See Setting Up Firing Control.

Band Limit Proximity Correction

Choice

Select Disarmed or Armed (must indicate H input band limits).  See Setting Up Firing Control.

 H Input Maximum Limit

REAL

Variable

Enter the input upper band limit.

H Input Minimum Limit

REAL

Variable

Enter the input lower band limit.

 Block/Deblock Input

Choice

Select Group or Individual. That is, block the 6-pulse bridge as a group or individually (6 element external signal array). This is enabled only when Number of Pulses | Six is selected [s]

 Pulse Duration

REAL

Variable

Output pulse duration. This is enabled only when Thyristor or GTO? | Thyristor is selected [s]
