Safety
Safety
WARNING! All electrical installation and maintenance work on the drive
should be carried out by qualified electricians only.
WARNING! The drive and adjoining equipment must be properly
grounded.
WARNING! Do not attempt any work on a powered drive. After
switching off the mains, always allow the intermediate circuit capacitors
5 minutes to discharge before working on the drive, the motor or the
motor cable. It is good practice to check (with a voltage indicating
instrument) that the drive is in fact discharged before beginning work.
WARNING! The motor cable terminals of the drive are at a dangerously
high voltage when mains power is applied, regardless of motor
operation.
WARNING! There can be dangerous voltages inside the drive from
external control circuits even when the drive mains power is shut off.
Exercise appropriate care when working on the unit. Neglecting these
instructions can cause physical injury or death.
Use of Warnings and Notes
There are two types of safety instructions throughout this manual:
• Notes draw attention to a particular condition or fact, or give
information on a subject.
• Warnings caution you about conditions which can result in serious
injury or death and/or damage to the equipment. They also tell you
how to avoid the danger. The warning symbols are used as follows:
Dangerous voltage warning warns of high voltage which can cause
physical injury and/or damage to the equipment.

Preparing for Installation
The OTAC-01 Module
The OTAC-01 Pulse Encoder Interface module is an interface for
connecting a digital pulse encoder to an ACS550 drive. A pulse
encoder should be used if accurate speed or position (angle) feedback
from the motor shaft is required.
Module Layout
Compatibility
The OTAC-01 module is compatible with all ACS550 drives. To confirm
compatibility with a particular pulse encoder, compare the pulse
encoders requirements to the “Specifications” on page 19.

Mounting
WARNING! Follow the safety instructions given in this guide and in the
ACS550 User’s Manual.
To mount the OTAC-01 module:
1. If not already off, remove mains power from the drive.
2. Remove the drive cover. (See instructions in the drive User’s Manual.)
3. Insert the OTAC-01 module’s
plastic hooks into the front of
the drive at SLOT 1.
4. Carefully fit the connector at
the other end of the module
into the drive connector.
5. Press until the retaining clip
locks the module into position.
NOTE! Signal and power
connections to the drive are
automatically made through a
6-pin connector.
6. Connect the ground lead to
the chassis screw terminal on the drive.

NOTE! Correct installation of the ground lead is essential for fulfilling
the EMC requirements and for proper operation of the module.

Installation
Wiring – The Encoder Power
The OTAC-01 module does not supply power for the encoder. An
external power supply (as diagrammed below) is recommended. The
drive’s 24 VDC supply from terminals X1:10 and X1:11 can be used if
the total draw on the supply does not exceed 250 mA. Use the following
table to determine if the drive’s supply can be used.
1. Connect as follows:
Wiring – The Encoder
1. Determine the encoder wiring configuration:
• Refer to “Phasing” on page 8 to determine if the encoder has normal
pulse order – encoder channel A/1 pulse leads channel B/2 pulse.
• Refer to “Encoder Output Types” on page 9 to determine the
encoder’s output type.
• For push-pull types, refer to the manufacturer’s recommendation for
connection – either single-ended or differential can be used.
2. Refer to “Wiring Diagrams” on page 10, select the appropriate diagram,
and wire the encoder.

Installation
Note: Normally, ground the cable shield only at the drive end. However,
if the encoder is isolated from the motor, and from ground, then connect
the cable shields to both the OTAC module and the encoder housing.
Note: Do not route the encoder cables parallel to power (e.g. motor)
cables.
3. Verify correct encoder phasing. See options below.
Phasing
When the encoder is connected correctly, running the drive in the
Forward (positive speed reference) direction should produce a positive
encoder speed feedback.
Option A: Oscilloscope Test. On incremental encoders, the two
output channels, usually marked A and B or 1 and 2, are 90° (electrical)
apart from each other. When rotated clockwise, most encoders – but
not all – have channel A/1 leading channel B/2 as illustrated below.
Determine the leading channel by referring to the encoder
documentation or by measuring with an oscilloscope.
The encoder output channel that leads when the drive runs Forward
should be connected to OTAC terminal A. The output channel that trails
should be connected to OTAC terminal B.
Option B: Functional Test. For this test:
• Temporarily, switch the drive to scalar mode (parameter 9904 = 3), if
not already there.

• Run the drive in the forward direction.
• Verify that parameter 0147 MECH REVS is increasing in the positive
direction.

diagrammed below
For encoders with pulse 2 leading, change diagram for these connections:
• Encoder A/1 and B/2 should be wired to OTAC terminals B and A respectively.
• Encoder A/1 and B/2 (if present) should be wired to OTAC terminals B and A
respectively.
