26 Feb 2004 10:15 Speed-droop in motor-speed regulator ??

Hi all I have a question about a regulaot from Heinzmann.

There are potentiometers inside the box named Gain, Stability and Derivative, which must mean that it is a PID-regulator.

But there is also a potentiometer for Droop, and also a switch that can be put in either droop or no-droop.

Acciording to the seller it should be on if I have load-changes, of course I have but thats what the PID-functions are for....

Why should one need something else above PID ?

What could it possible do ? It has the letter P in proximity of the potentiometer. Could it be a boost to the Gain-function ?

Kindest regards,
