Abstract
The invention is directed to a method and an arrangement for the rpm control of a drive unit. A control is provided having at least two components. At the start of the drive unit, these two components are activated one after the other.
Claims8
A method for controlling the rpm of a drive unit, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a controller having at least first and second components;
- and,
- with the start of said drive unit, first activating said first component so as to effect a control of said drive unit based on said first component and thereafter activating said second component so that said control is based on both said first and second components.
A method for controlling the rpm of a drive unit, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a controller having at least first and second components;
- with the start of said drive unit, first activating said first component so as to effect a control of said drive unit based on said first component and thereafter activating said second component so that said control is based on both said first and second components;
- and,
- wherein said first component is at least one of a proportional component and a differential component and said second component is an integral component.
A method for controlling the rpm of a drive unit, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a controller having at least first and second components;
- with the start of said drive unit, first activating said first component so as to effect a control of said drive unit based on said first component and thereafter activating said second component so that said control is based on both said first and second components;
- and,
- wherein said drive unit is an engine and the method comprises the further step of activating said first component when the engine rpm exceeds a steady-state desired rpm for the first component after the start of the engine.
An arrangement for controlling the rpm of a drive unit, the arrangement comprising:
- at least one microcomputer for controlling said rpm;
- said microcomputer functioning to implement at least first and second components;
- and,
- said microcomputer including means for first activating said first component when said drive unit is started so that the control is based on said first component and, thereafter, activating said second component so that said control is based on both said first and second components.

- with the start of said drive unit, first activating said first component so as to effect a control of said drive unit based on said first component and thereafter activating said second component so that said control is based on both said first and second components;
- wherein said first component is at least one of a proportional component and a differential component and said second component is an integral component;
- and,
- activating said second component after a predetermined time has elapsed after switching on said first component.
