Controlling  the  DHC-400  from  the  Override  Input  is  accomplished  by  connecting  a  specific 
resistance to select a specific operation. The table below defines the operations and their associated 
resistance.  See  Special  Applications  for  details  on  using  the  Override  Input  for  an  Auto/Manual 
Station.

CLOSE

STOP 

The OPEN function will operate the motor in the open direction as set by the OPEN mode, while 
the CLOSE function operates the motor  in the closed direction as set by the CLOSE mode. The 
LATCH function will maintain the previously selected function; this allows momentary switches to 
be used for the OPEN and CLOSE functions. The OFF and STOP functions turn the motor off, which 
also unlatches the OPEN or CLOSE functions. 

Note that the OPEN and CLOSE functions may work in reverse until the open and closed positions 
are set by the OPEN and CLOSE modes. The DHC-400 will automatically turn the motor off when 
the  open  or  closed  positions  are  reached.  However,  if  a  feedback  fault  occurs  (see  FAULT 
INDICATOR), the motor will be turned on for a period of 15 minutes in the selected direction. For 
this reason, limit switches should be used when using the OVERRIDE mode, and should be set to 
a position acceptable for the application. The 15 minute period can also be terminated using the 
OFF or STOP function. 

The motor is also automatically turned off if the DHC-400 detects a stall (see STALL DETECTION). 
An OPEN or CLOSE operation can be attempted again after switching to the OFF, LATCH, or STOP 
functions first. 

The  motor  is  also  turned  off  if  a  motor  current  trip  is  detected  (see  TRIP  SETTING).  If  the  trip 
occurred  during  an  OPEN  operation,  the  OPEN  operation  is  disabled  until  the  trip  condition  is 
corrected. The CLOSE operation may be used to attempt to clear the trip condition (by causing a 
certain amount of motion in the closed direction).Likewise, if a trip occurs during a CLOSE operation, 
the OPEN operation can be used for clearing the trip. If a trip occurs in both directions (i.e., before 
the first trip can be cleared), the trip can only be cleared by a mechanical override mechanism, or 
by using the MANUAL mode from the DHC-400 front panel, or by powering the DHC-400 down and 
back up.
