Follow these steps to quickly set up and operate the Model 1000 Brushless DC drive. If you are not sure
of the procedure for any of the steps, consult the installation section (beginning on page 7).
CONNECTIONS
1. Connect the proper three-phase AC power from a suitably rated switching device to the input terminals L1, L2,
and L3. Check the nameplate. The sequence of the phases is not important to the drive.
2. Connect the power system ground to the GND terminal. Make sure the system ground is earth ground.
3. Connect T1 of the motor to T1 of the drive. Connect T2 to T2, and T3 to T3. The order of connection is
important. The motor will not run with improper motor connections..
4. Connect a ground wire from the motor’s ground lug to the GND terminal on the drive.
5. Connect the encoder cable to the motor. Consult the drawing on page 2. The cable used should be a nine-
conductor shielded cable. The colors do not matter, but they aid in tracing wires. Connect the shield at both
ends of the cable (the shield continues inside the motor, but is not connected there).
6. Connect a 10 Kilo-ohm Speed Potentiometer to TB2 terminals 9 (CW), 10 (Wiper), and 11 (CCW). Connect the
shield of the speed pot cable to TB2 terminal 12.
7. Connect an Emergency Stop (ESTOP) button between TB2 terminals 6 and 7. Use a normally closed,
maintained open contact type pushbutton.
8. Connect a normally closed, momentary type, STOP pushbutton between TB2 terminals 7 and 5.
9. Connect a normally open, momentary type, RUN pushbutton between TB2 terminals 5 and 4.
10.
If desired, connect a normally open, momentary type, JOG pushbutton between TB2 terminals 5 and 13.
11.
If desired, connect a Forward-Reverse (FWD-REV) selector switch to TB2 terminals 17 and 14. Use a single-
pole, two-position switch. The switch should close a contact in the Reverse position.
START UP
1. Before applying power, turn the speed pot fully counter-clockwise (CCW) and turn the CLIM pot fully counter-
clockwise. Do not connect the motor to a load for its initial run. Set FWD-REV to FWD.
2. When you apply power, the PWR LED should light up GREEN immediately.
3. When you apply power, the BUS LED should light up RED immediately.
4. When power is on, the HS1, HS2, and HS3 LED’s may or may not be on RED, depending on the position of
the motor. Only one or two should light; never all three and never none.
5. When power is on, the TAC LED may be OFF, RED, GREEN, or ORANGE.
6. Within 30 seconds, the BUS LED should turn GREEN and the you should hear the charging contactor click as
it energizes. If this does not happen within 30 seconds, shut power off and consult the troubleshooting section.
7. Press and release the START button. The RUN LED should light. The CURRENT LIMIT LED may come on at
this time because the CLIM pot is all the way counter-clockwise.
8. Immediately after the RUN LED comes on, the ENABLE LED should light.
9. Increase the speed pot reference to about 10% of its rotation from the CCW position.
10.
Turn the CLIM pot slowly clockwise. If the motor does not turn (HS1, HS2, HS3, and TAC will start blinking)
before CLIM is at 50%, turn the CLIM pot back down fully CCW. Consult the troubleshooting section.
11.
When the motor begins turning more than 10 RPM, the ZERO SPD LED should light up YELLOW.
12.
Leave the CLIM pot at 50 % and increase the speed pot to 50% of its rotation. Check the motor speed with a
hand-held tachometer. Adjust the MAX speed pot, if necessary to attain 50% speed.
13.
Turn the speed pot to 100% and measure the motor speed. Adjust MAX speed if necessary.
14.
Press the Normal Stop button and start again. Time the acceleration to full speed and set ACCEL time.
15.
Turn speed pot to 0% (CCW) and set MIN SPD potentiometer, if desired.
16.
Set STAB and GAIN to 50% of their rotation. Press the Normal Stop button. ENABLE should go OFF.
17.
Press the JOG button and set the JOG speed, if desired.
18.
Start the drive at any speed and switch the Forward-Reverse switch to check reversing.
19.
The motor is ready for service.
