Drivecon XS Series Quick Setup Guide
Navigating the Keypad
While navigating the menu structure, the first character displayed in the parameter addresses is a letter and should be
ignored. This letter has no practical relationship to your location in the menu structure. Navigation is determined by the
numbers alone. Focus on the numbers and the decimal points separating them. Please note that no letter is displayed
while viewing a parameter value. (Example: In parameter 2.10 below, the value of your output frequency is 0.00Hz)
Parameter 2.10 – Default Screen
Programming your Drive’s Parameters
When viewing a parameter value you want to change, press to edit it. The value of the parameter will flash on the
keypad. Use and to select between the available preset values. If the parameter is a numeric value, you can
press again to select an individual digit and use the and to increase or decrease its value. Once the desired
selection is achieved, press to save the change to the drive’s memory. A successful parameter change is confirmed
when the parameter value stops flashing.
1. Check all power and control connections to the drive.
Ensure all are correct and there are no loose wires.
2. Apply power to the drive.
The keypad should turn on and display an output frequency monitoring page with a value of "0.00”. If the drive
displays a fault code, check the service manual for troubleshooting information.
3. Navigate to and enter the password parameter.
a) From the output frequency parameter 2.10, press until only the ‘2’ remains on the display.
b) Press to change the parameter number to 1. Press twice to display parameter 1.1.1.
c) Press to display the current value of parameter 1.1.1.
d) Press to modify the parameter value, as indicated by a flashing ‘0’. Press again and
the screen will display “00”. Press three times and the screen will display “0000”.
e) Using all four arrow keys, you can freely enter the value “2156”. Press to store to memory.

4. Select a control mode.
Navigate to parameter 1.1.11 and select your desired control mode. The factory default control mode is
highlighted in the chart below.
The control modes are:
Note: EP2 (slow-limit) is the factory default control mode. Drives from the factory normally come programmed for EP2.
5. Edit applicable motor parameters.
Navigate to the following parameters and enter the following motor info from the nameplates:
6. Select your motor:
If the motor you are using a single MF06 type motor, program parameter 1.2.2 according to the following list.
For any other motor or if you are using multiple motors, set parameter 1.2.2 to a value of “1”.
Motor Type Program parameter 1.2.2 to:
Non MF06 type Motor 1
MF06MA100 2
MF06MA200 3
MF06LA100 4
MF06LA200 5
MF06LA20P 6
MF06LB100 7
MF06LB200 8

7. Wire in your slow and/or stop limits or jumper them out with control power.
The slow and/or stop limit inputs the drive will look for will vary depending on the control mode that has been
selected in parameter 1.1.11 “Input Set”.
If you are using limit switches:
•Wire them into the appropriate digital inputs.
See the “Control Mode Signal Assignments” table and wiring diagram in the back of this
manual.
•Jumper control power to any unused limit switch inputs.
See “Control Mode Signal Assignments” & “Signal Descriptions” tables in the back of this
manual.
If you are not using any limit switches:
•Jumper control power to the following pins depending on the control mode selected.
8. Jumper out external stop circuit. [ Only in EP2 (slow-limit) or MS2 (slow-limit) control modes ]
If parameter 1.1.11 is set for a value of 1 or 3, you must have a maintained control voltage jumper connected
to digital input DID5 on pin 5 of the control connections. The drive will not run until this control voltage is
connected.
9. Perform the Autotuning Process.
Navigate to parameter 1.2.4.6 and press to view its current value. Press and hold until the display
reads “1”. This indicates that the drive has started the autotuning process.
(Note: The tuning process will not turn the motor or open the brake. It will only magnetize the motor.)
Completed tuning will be confirmed with a displayed value of “3”.
10. Verify Current Limit parameter 1.2.4.4 is set for 120% of your motor nominal current value.
After autotuning, ensure that parameter 1.2.4.4 is set for 120% of your motor nominal current value. In some
situations, the autotuning process can set the current limit value much higher than desired. Be sure to check
this to prevent damage to motor and other components!
11. Test run the drive.
Make sure it operates as desired. Double check the motor parameters, and verify correct operating speeds.
12. Store your “user parameters” in the drive’s control unit.
Once the drive has been programmed, autotuned, and is functioning as desired, navigate to
parameter 3.3.1. Select “1” and press to store your “user parameters” into the control unit. Doing this
will allow you to reload your custom saved parameters back into the drive, should you ever need to.
