motion. When power is removed from the DHC-400, the electronic braking feature is disabled. In 
some applications, a brake is required for mechanical reasons, such as avoiding back driving the 
motor;  the  DHC-400  is  suitable  for  powering  most  brakes,  however,  consult  the  actuator 
manufacturer for more information. 

OVERRIDE (J7): 

J7  provides  a  simple  2-wire  connection  that  can  override  the  DHC-400  to  perform  a  variety  of 
external  control  functions.  Using  an  appropriate  interface  module,  commonly  used  auto/manual 
station  switches  are  easily  implemented  with  low  voltage/low  current  switches.  See  Special 
Applications for more details. The factory installed jumper between pins 1 and 2 enables normal 
operation of the DHC-400 and must be installed if the external override functions are not used.

 

MODE: 

The MODE button is used to select the desired function of operation. When the MODE button is 
pressed, the unit will switch to the next function and the appropriate LED indicator will turn on to let 
the  user  know  which  function  is  selected.  Except  for  the  MANUAL/FB  POT  CAL  mode,  the 
associated mode indicator will  be steady on; for some of  the modes other indicators will flash to 
indicate specific settings associated with the mode. Each of the modes are described in more detail 
in the following sections. 

If a 0-5V or 0-10V command signal is used, the LOSS OF COMMAND function cannot be used. The 
MODE button will skip over the LOSS OF COMMAND mode when the unit is configured for a 0-5V 
or 0-10V command signal (see COMMAND TYPE). When the OVERRIDE mode is enabled (see 
OVERRIDE  MODE),  the  MODE  button  is  disabled  and  the  Manual/Pot  Cal  indicator  will  turn  on 
steady.  

ADJUST UP (▲) and ADJUST DOWN (▼): 

The adjust up (▲) and adjust down (▼) buttons are used to adjust the setting of any given function. 
When a function is selected by the MODE button, the adjust buttons will affect that function only. 
Note, that the AUTO mode does not have any adjustable settings, and therefore, 

the adjust up (▲) 

and adjust down (▼) buttons have no effect. Also, the adjust buttons are disabled in the OVERRIDE 
mode.  

OVERRIDE MODE: 

The  OVERRIDE  mode  is  not  selected  by  the  MODE  button  and  can  be  enabled  at  any  time  by 
connecting a resistance greater than 250 ohms to the Override Input (J7 pin 1 and pin 2). While the 
OVERRIDE  mode  is  enabled,  the  MODE  button  and  adjust  buttons  are  disabled,  and  the 
Manual/Pot  Cal  indicator  will  turn  on  steady  to  indicate  that  the  unit  is  being  controlled  by  the 
Override Input. Shorting J7 pin 1 to pin 2 returns the unit to normal operation and the previously 
selected mode.
