-

 Verify that no foreign conduc

ve material is present on the printed circuit board.

- Ensure that all jumpers are properly set.

1. Turn the speed adjust poten

ometer full counterclockwise (CCW).

2. Apply AC line voltage.

3. Make sure the drive is enabled / not inhibited.

4. Slowly advance the speed adjust poten

ometer clockwise (CW) or increase the analog voltage signal. 

4.

 The motor slowly accelerates as the poten

ometer is turned CW or as the analog voltage signal is

4.

 increased. Con

nue un

l the desired speed is reached.

5. Remove AC line voltage from the drive to coast the motor to a stop. 

STARTUP

Jumper 1: Motor Voltage

          OPEN / NO JUMPER  - Leave these pins open if using a 180 VDC motor.

             CLOSED / JUMPER  - Place a jumper on these pins if using a 90 VDC motor.

Jumper 2:

 

Speed or Torque Mode

          OPEN / NO JUMPER  - Speed Mode: The drive will do whatever current is necessary (up to the 

          OPEN / NO JUMPER  - 

torque/current limit set by the CL trim pot) to achieve and maintain the 

          OPEN / NO JUMPER  - 

commanded speed/voltage.

             CLOSED / JUMPER  - Torque Mode: The drive will do whatever voltage is necessary (up to the 

             CLOSED / JUMPER  - 

speed/voltage limit set by the MX SPD trim pot) to achieve and maintain 

             CLOSED / JUMPER  - 

the commanded current/torque.

Jumper 3: AX2 Terminal (Inhibit / Enable)

          OPEN / NO JUMPER  - Inhibit. The motor will regenera

vely brake when told to stop using the 

          OPEN / NO JUMPER  - 

AX2 terminal.

             CLOSED / JUMPER  - Enable. The motor will coast when told to stop using the AX2 terminal.

Jumper 4: Invert AX2 (Inhibit / Enable)

          OPEN / NO JUMPER  - Normal (Open to run / Close to stop).

             CLOSED / JUMPER  - Invert (Close to run / Open to stop).

Jumper 5: Current Limit Scale

          OPEN / NO JUMPER  - 10 A current limit scale. Leave these pins open if using a motor larger than 

          OPEN / NO JUMPER  - 

2.5 amps.

             CLOSED / JUMPER  - 2.5 A current limit scale. Place a jumper on these pins if using a motor 

             CLOSED / JUMPER  - 

smaller than 2.5 amps.

Jumpers 1, 2, and 5 may only be set while the drive is powered off or disabled.

JUMPERS

Startup

STATUS

LED

LIMIT

LED

STATUS LED (Green)

Solid:

 AC line voltage is applied to the drive and the drive is enabled to run.

1 Flash:

 The drive is disabled or inhibited.

2 Flashes: 

Either Jumper 1, 2, or 5 was changed during opera

on. To change these se

ngs, the drive

must either be disabled or powered off.

LIMIT LED (Red)

Solid:

 The drive is in current limit. This means the motor is asking for more current (torque) than the 

drive is set to allow out. Either reduce the amount of torque required by the motor or raise the current

limit output of the drive using the Torque (CL) trim pot.

LEDs

Offset (OFFST): 

The OFFST se

ng determines the minimum motor speed when the speed adjust 

poten

ometer or analog voltage signal is set for minimum speed. To calibrate the OFFST:

          1. Set the OFFST trim pot full CCW.

          2. Set the speed adjust poten

ometer or analog voltage signal for minimum speed.

          3. Adjust OFFST trim pot un

l the desired minimum speed is reached.

Maximum Speed (MX SPD): 

The MX SPD se

ng determines the maximum motor speed when the

speed adjust poten

ometer is set for maximum speed. To calibrate the MX SPD:

          1. Set the MX SPD trim pot full CCW.

          2. Set the speed adjust poten

ometer for maximum speed.

          3. Adjust MX SPD trim pot un

l the desired maximum speed is reached.

Torque (CL): 

The CL se

ng determines the maximum torque for accelera

ng, driving, and decelera

ng

the motor in both the forward and reverse direc

ons.

To calibrate CL:

          1. With the power disconnected from the drive, connect a DC ammeter in series with the

          

1. 

armature.

          2. Set the CL trim pot to minimum (full CCW).

          3. Set the speed adjust poten

ometer to maximum forward speed (full CW).

          4. Carefully lock the motor armature. Be sure that the motor is firmly mounted.

          5. Apply line power. The motor should be stopped.

          6. Slowly adjust the CL trim pot CW un

l the armature current is 150% of motor rated

          

6. 

armature current.

          7. Turn the speed adjust poten

ometer to minimum speed (full CCW).

          8. Remove line power.

          9. Remove the stall from the motor.

        10. Remove the ammeter in series with the motor armature if it is no longer needed.

IR Compensa

on (IR): 

The IR se

ng determines the degree to which motor speed is held constant as

the motor load changes. To calibrate the IR:

          1. Set the IR trim pot full CCW.

          2. Increase the speed adjust poten

ometer un

l the motor runs at midspeed without load. A

          

2. 

handheld tachometer may be used to measure motor speed.

          3. Load the motor armature to its full load armature current ra

ng. The motor should slow down.

          4. While keeping the load on the motor, rotate the IR trim pot un

l the motor runs at the

          

4. 

speed measured in step 2. If the motor oscillates (overcompensa

on), the IR trim pot

          

4. 

may be set too high (CW). Turn the IR trim pot CCW to stabilize the motor.

          5. Unload the motor.
