1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
The LCU-P unit was developed to add a PCU function to the LCU-B unit for the HQ and HL
series electric actuators, and it is possible to add a communication module such as ProfiBus
and ModBus for customer convenience. This manual is intended for safe use, installation and
maintenance of the LCU-P.
1.2 The LCU-P board has Local mode which can be operated directly from local control and
Remote mode which can be remotely operated in distance. It is also possible to integral
control of on/off operation and remote modulation operation which input a command signal
of 4~20 mA range.
1.3 This product is equipped with 8 BIT RISC CPU to guarantee various functions and high
reliability, including self-diagnosis function. The user can conveniently diagnose the error from
WINDOW LED status
1.4 Safety Notices
Safety notices in this manual outline precaution the user must take to reduce the risk of
personal injury and damage to the equipment. The user(s) must read these instructions before
the installation, operation or maintenance of HQ-series electric actuators.
DANGER: Refers to personal safety and alerts the user to danger or harm.
The hazard or unsafe practice will result in severe injury or death.
WARNING: Refers to personal safety. Alerts the user to potential danger.
Failure to follow warning notices could result in personal injury or death.
CAUTION: Directs the user’s attention to general precautions that, if not followed,
could result in personal injury and/or equipment damage .
Notes: Highlighted information is critical to the user’s understanding of the
actuator’s installation and operation.
2. Check point before using the actuator

6. Main function and usage in Remote Manual Control
6.1 Dry contacts control (command contact)
6.1.1 Command function is activated when is input an action by external dry contact.
6.1.2 Hold / Inching can be selected by changing the 3-pin Dip Switch (SW2) specified in No.
20 of “4. LCU-P board layout”.
① Pin No.2 : select as Hold (On) / Inching (Off)
6.1.3 Connect the actuator terminal from outside refer to Fig 1 as below.
< Fig 1 Actuator terminal wiring >
6.1.4 The actuator does not work if the 6 (Stop) and 9 (Com) terminals are not connected.
6.1.5 Check action of the actuator after wiring.
6.1.6 When operating at the site after connect the Common wire;
① After make jumper between No.6 (Stop) and No. 9 (Com) terminal, and make jumper
between No.7 (Open) and No. 9 (Com) terminal, after that the actuator will be moved to
open.
② After make jumper between No.6 (Stop) and No. 9 (Com) terminal, and make jumper
between No.8 (Close) and No. 9 (Com) terminal, after that the actuator will be moved to
close.
③ Dip switch (SW2) setting at the clause 6.1.2

 Hold : At this time, the actuator will be continually move to fully open or fully close
position.
 Inching : It is only move in case of connected between No.7(Open) and No.9 (Com),
or between No.8(Close) and No.9(Com).
But if the connection is opened, it doesn’t operate.
6.1.7 It can be checked by confirming operation on site whether actuator is contact to
command or not.
6.2 External output signal contacts
6.2.1 External output signal contacts use when receive about actuator status from external
(panel) signal.
6.2.2 Wiring should be as shown below in Fig 2.
<Fig 2 Actuator terminal wiring>
6.2.3 After completed according to Fig 2, operate the actuator for confirming output signal.
① Remote lamp (A-contact: normal open)
 Checking with No.10 and No.11 terminal.
 The contact is changed when the Mod knob of the actuator is put to Remote.
② Open lamp (A-contact: normal open)
 Checking with No.10 and No.12 terminal.
 The contact is changed when the actuator is moving to open.
③ Fault lamp (Possible to select A-contact: normal open, B-contact: normal close)
 Checking with No.10 and No.13 terminal.
 The contact is changed when the actuator is fault (activated on the torque switch).
 It is possible to select the contact by 3-pin DIP switch (SW2) of LCU-P layout No20
as No1-On: B-contact, No1-Off: A-contact
④ Closing lamp (A-contact: normal open)

LED display Action
1) Power input check (LED display- Power LED : White)
2) Select “Remote” of Remote / Stop / Local knob switch
3) Confirm the blue on the Remote LED
4) The actuator is set as fully close when is shipping to
customer.
5) The open LED (red) is flickering for opening.
6) Completed to open : the red LED is On.
7) After that the actuator is stopped at open position.
8) The close LED (green) is flickering for closing.
9) Completed to close : the green LED is On
10) After that the actuator is stopped at close position.
7. Main function and usage for Remote modulating control (proportional control).
7.1 Select input signal switch
Depending on the system environment, the user can select the required command signal type
by setting the DIP switch SW3.
Notes : DIP switch SW3 is commonly set with 4~20mA dc before shipping.
Please make sure whether the input signal and DIP switches are correct as intended use.
Caution : Zero switch SW3-3 is applied to input and output signals equally.

7.2 Set feedback type
Depending on the system environment, the user can select the required output feedback
signal by setting the DIP switch SW1.
Notes : DIP switch SW1 is commonly set with 4~20mA dc before shipping.
Caution : Please refer to Zero switch SW3-3 of the clause “7.1 Select input signal switch“.
7.3 Deadband setting
7.3.1 Deadband means maximum allowable tolerance of the actuator stop position from
command signal.
7.3.2 It is also minimum difference value for starting to move of the actuator.
7.3.3 Adjustable setting range : 0.4 ~ 7.5% (16 steps available)
① Step 0~4 : increase 0.1% increment per step (0.4~0.8%)
② Step 5~9 : increase 0.2% increment per step (1.0% ~ 1.8%)
③ Step A~F : increase 0.5% increment per step (5.0% ~ 7.5%)
④ Initial setting is “4”
7.3.4 If the setting value is too lower, the actuator may not be found the target point and it
may be repeatedly operated in forward or reverse direction. This is called “Hunting” and
the user must appropriately adjust the deadband to avoid from the hunting.
7.3.5 Continuous hunting causes a failure of the actuator parts such as motor, LCU-P board,
potentiometer and etc.
7.4 Deadtime setting
7.4.1 This is necessary to apply the command signal.
7.4.2 It is the minimum time for maintaining the state of the input signal satisfying the
deadband.
7.4.3 Actuator only accepts input signal satisfying the setting value of the deadtime as normal
and operates. It is for preventing from abnormal operation of the actuator by external
disturbance something like noise.
7.4.4 Adjustable setting range : 0.2~7.5 sec (16 steps available)
① Step 0 : 0.2 sec (minimum value)

② Step 1~4 : increase 0.25 sec increment per step (0.25~1 sec)
③ Step 5~F : increase 0.5 sec increment per step (2.5~7.5 sec)
④ Initial setting is “4”
7.5 Auto setting
7.5.1 It shall be proceeded “Stop” status of the mode knob.
7.5.2 Check connection status of the input power, input/output signal after actuator and valve
are correctly assembled.
7.5.3 When the wiring is normal without problem, push the auto setting button.
7.5.4 Then the Remote LED (blue light) of the window is flickering, and perform the auto
setting function.
7.5.5 Auto setting details
Select “Stop” position of the mode knob, and you can perform according to ① or ②
method as below.
① Operate SW7 (A-SCAN) of the LCU-P board
1) Need to open the LCU cover of the actuator, and push the Auto setting button.
② Operate knob
1) Confirm “Stop” position of the mode knob
2) Hold for 5 seconds at “Close” of the action knob
3) Confirm to Off from On of the blue LED
4) Operate “Open” of the action knob within 3 seconds
5) Confirm to Off from On of the blue LED as holding status for about 5 seconds
6) Change to “Local” of the mode knob, and then turn to “Stop”
7) Not need to open the LCU cover
7.5.6 After pushing the A-SCAN, Auto setting is performed as follows.
① Flickering the blue LED continuously.
② Green LED is flickering during closing, the green LED is on after fully closed.
If the actuator were already closed, the closing operation will be skipped.
③ Red LED is flickering during opening, the red LED is on after fully opened.
④ Green LED is flickering during closing, the green LED is on after fully closed.
⑤ When all of the sequences are automatically and successfully completed, blue LED will
be On, and then move to pre-specified position
Notes : During the auto setting processes, if you press any button or operate the knob,
the auto setting mode is cancelled.
7.6 Fail close (FC), fail open (FO) and fail stop
When an analogue command signal does not come in or a wrong signal is received, the LCU-P
will detect Fault and operates automatically open, close and stop according to specified fail
position.
