PLUS+1 Controllers

Conﬁgurable Outputs

Driving Diﬀerent Types of

Loads

Driving a Relay or ON/OFF

Valve

If you need to use a multi-function PWM output for ON/OFF loads, then set the conﬁguration in

the application program to one of the digital output selections. This can be push/pull, sourcing, or

sinking. (PinConﬁg = 0, 1, or 2)

Sourcing and Sinking options are not available for all pins. Please refer to the API speciﬁcation for the

particular hardware.

PLUS+1 controllers have conﬁgurable outputs that can be used to drive a variety of diﬀerent loads.

Danfoss recommends the following ways for using the PLUS+1 outputs to drive diﬀerent types of

loads.

Danfoss recommends using a digital output for ON/OFF loads, such as a relay or valve. This

encompasses outputs labeled as DOUT or DOUT/PVG Pwr. The recirculating diode across the relay coil

is optional. The internal diode will provide the same functionality. These outputs always provide a

high voltage (sourcing battery voltage) as the output when in the ON state.

In the Sinking conﬁguration, with the load tied to +Batt there is the potential for up to 5 milliamps

leakage current through the output when it is in the OFF state.

Use sourcing or sinking when there are other sources tied in parallel, such as a

jog switch.

Driving an Incandescent

Lamp

Danfoss only recommends using a digital output for driving incandescent lamps. This encompasses

outputs labeled as DOUT or DOUT/PVG Pwr. These outputs always provide a high voltage (sourcing

battery voltage) as the output when in the ON state.

FET

It is not recommended to use multi-function PWM outputs for driving incandescent lamps. There are

limitations when driving incandescent lamps from multi-function outputs. An incandescent lamp has

an “inrush” current. Inrush is a spike in current just as you turn the lamp on when the ﬁlament is cold.

Multi-function outputs have a hard current limit which will trip the output oﬀ if this limit is exceeded.

When driving an incandescent lamp this can happen even though the average current requirements

for the lamp are well within the output pin’s drive capability. Depending on the inrush current, it

cannot be guaranteed that the multi-fuction output will reliably drive an incandescent lamp. This has

sometimes been eﬀectively addressed by setting the output to open loop PWM (PinConﬁg = 3) and

then ramping the PWM percentage from 0 to 100 percent, but this is not guaranteed to work for all

applications.

Driving a Bidirectional

Option 1 – H bridge conﬁguration for single coil

Certain output pin pairs may be set for the H bridge conﬁguration. Please refer to the API

speciﬁcation for the pinouts on a particular hardware. This is an open loop PWM conﬁguration

(PinConﬁg = 7).

Option 2 – closed loop current controlled conﬁguration for single coil

You may also use two outputs conﬁgured for closed loop current control to drive a bi-directional

valve. Certain output pin pairs may be used for this conﬁguration (PinConﬁg = 8). Set the current

command to the desired milliamps. Please refer to the API speciﬁcation for the pinout pairs available

on a particular hardware.

Option 3 – push/pull conﬁguration for dual coil

You may also use two outputs to drive a bidirectional dual coil valve such as a dual coil EDC when

wired as shown below. This conﬁguration will allow you to check the resistance of the coils for more

accurate diagnostics. Setting PinConﬁg = 4 on both outputs will give closed loop current control.

Driving a Unidirectional

Proportional Valve

It is recommended to use PWM conﬁguration for unidirectional proportional valves. This may be set

for open loop PWM (PinConﬁg = 3) or closed loop current control (PinConﬁg = 4 or 5). Recirculating

diodes across the load should never be used if the valve requires closed loop current control. They are

optional for open loop PWM control.

FMEA Considerations One consideration during a system FMEA (Failure Mode Eﬀects Analysis) on an application is the

possibility of an open wiring connection. Here are three examples.

Eﬀects of an Open Ground

Losing the ground connection can cause the battery current to ﬁnd another path to ground if it is

available. When the load is grounded externally, rather than through the controller, such a path is

available. Current will ﬁnd its way through the load even when the output is in the OFF state. This may

result in unintentional movement of the function that is controlled by the load.

Below is a simple schematic to show how this can happen. The arrows indicate the path of current.

The only way to remove the current completely is to return the load current back to the controller,

through another output. If you are driving an EDC type load (dual coil) and are driving both coils to

get a forward / reverse type function, this could be done by driving one coil bi-directionally with no

additional outputs consumed.

If there are enough valves connected to the controller to provide multiple current paths, you might

be able to reduce the amount of current in each valve enough so that it is no longer above the

threshold of any one valve.

If you have multiple ground connections to the controller, you might be able to reduce the

occurrence of the fault enough so that it no longer a signiﬁcant risk (rates below 100 on the System

FMEA.) You may also be able to improve the wiring integrity to minimize the occurrence of the fault.

Open Battery+ Wire to

Controller

Open Battery+ Wire

Losing the Battery + connection can cause the battery current to ﬁnd another path to ground if it is

available. When the load is tied to Battery+ externally, rather than through the controller, such a path

is available. Current will ﬁnd its way through the load even if the output is in the OFF state. This may

result in unintentional movement of the function that is controlled by the load.
