Installation
Before attempting any installation make sure that all power is turned off to
the equipment being worked on. As mentioned previously, the AA1069 card is
a stand alone module and can be installed in a variety of ways. It should be
mounted in a protective enclosure, which is well ventilated. For mounting, there
are four holes, as shown in Fig. 1B, for use with stand-offs, or the fast-track that
is supplied may be used. The card requires a 120 VAC supply, which should be
fused at 1.0 AMP. Referring to Fig.’s 1A and 2 make all external interconnections
using shielded twisted wire. All wiring should be in accordance with good stan-
dard practices and any codes that may apply.
Note: Some Model Drives require the use of the AA1081 Inverter / Buffer
card with the AA1069 Module. Please refer to Appendix 1B for installation
and set-up.
Initial Set-up
Since the AA1069 card is designed to be used in a variety of winder applica-
tions, and with various SAFTRONICS drives, the initial settings suggested in
Table 1 are for reference only. The final settings will be dictated by the particular
application in which it is used. Referring to Table 1 and Fig.’s 1A and 2, proceed
as follows for the initial set-up.
1 - With the drive disconnected and the AA1069 installed as above, apply
power to the card. Temporarily connect a jumper from terminal 8 ( (-) 12 V)
and 10 (Enable). Adjust RV2 (Minimum Adjustment) to fully CCW (0 V ).Then
apply the appropriate full scale LINE SPEED REFERENCE voltage, between
terminal 1 or 2 and terminal 7 GND. i.e., the voltage that would represent
maximum line speed. Ensure that the proper jumpers are in place, L1 and L4
for a positive reference, or L2 and L3 for negative.
2 - Connect a voltmeter to terminal 3 ( Dancer + Supply) and terminal 7(GND)
then adjust RV1(Speed Adj.) for +10 V. Check that terminal 4 (Dancer (-)
Supply) is (-) 10 V. Next check that the slider on both the Dancer (terminal
13) and Dancer Position (terminal 6) potentiometers adjust from (+/-) 10 V
throughout their range with 0 V in mid-position.
NOTE: the Dancer slider should read 0V when in it’s mechanical neutral
position. Also, the polarity of the Dancer input at terminal 13 must be in
a direction as to provide the proper feedback.
3 - Ensure that jumpers L5 and L6 are in, and set the Dancer slider to it’s neutral
position (0 V) (or disconnect it) . Adjust the Position Input potentiometer for
(-) 10 V at terminal 6. Connect the voltmeter to terminal 11 (Proportional
Output) and adjust RV6 to obtain +1 V output or approximately 10% of the
Dancer input.

Description
The AA1081 INVERTER / BUFFER SYSTEMS CARD is a stand alone module
that is designed to provide analog signal conditioning in a variety of motor control
applications. It provides signal buffering, signal Inverting and the ability to sum
(2) input signals. It has an offset as well as a gain adjustment.

Gain Adjustment Range - G = 0.5 - 10 (factory set for 1)
Installation
Before attempting any installation make sure that all power is turned off to
the equipment being worked on. The AA1081 card is a stand alone module
and can be mounted in a variety of ways. It should be mounted in a protective
enclosure which is well ventilated. Four mounting holes are provided as shown in
Fig. 1B for use with stand-offs. Referring to Fig. 1A,make all external connec-
tions using shielded twisted wire. All wiring should be in accordance with
good standard practices and any codes that may apply.

4 - Adjust RV5 (Integral Time) to approximately 10% CW.This will set an integra-
tion time of 0.5 SEC. Next, adjust RV4,(Integral Output), to approximately
10% CCW which will a provide a 1V maximum integration error to be summed
with the proportional error at terminals 5 and 11. On the AA1069 board, re-
move the jumper J1, if installed.This will allow the output from the integrator
to be bi-polar (+/-).
NOTE: In some applications, it is desirable to have a + or – output.This
is set by the jumper position on P1.
5 - Connect the voltmeter to terminal 5, (Integral Output), and momentarily re-
move the jumper from terminal 10 (Enable).This will reset the integrator and
terminal 5 should read 0 V. Reconnect the jumper and note that the voltage
on terminal 5 should ramp up to approximately +1 V in 0.5 SEC.
6 - Adjust RV3 (Derivative Control) to fully CCW (0 SEC).There is no pre-set for
this control and it’s setting is application dependent.
7 - The Minimum Adjustment potentiometer RV2 provides a minimum excitation
voltage to the Dancer potentiometer when there is no Line Speed Reference,
such as on start-up. This setting is also application dependent and is nor-
mally set so that a neutral Dancer position is maintained. It is initially set
fully CCW (0 V).
In summary, using the initial settings, a full range change in the mechanical
Dancer position will provide a (+/-) 10% proportional change in the set Line
Speed.The Integral output, which is summed with the proportional change, will
be limited to a maximum of 1 V, with an integration time of 0.5 SEC. The deriva-
tive time is set to 0 SEC by RV3, and the minimum Dancer excitation voltage is
set to fully CCW (0 V) by RV2. The neutral Dancer operating position can be set
by the Dancer position potentiometer. However, it is recommended that the
mechanical Dancer neutral position be set in the middle of the mechanical range
so that full range control may be realized.

10% CCW which will a provide a 1V maximum integration error to be summed
with the proportional error at terminals 5 and 11. On the AA1069 board, re-
move the jumper J1, if installed.This will allow the output from the integrator
to be bi-polar (+/-).
NOTE: In some applications, it is desirable to have a + or – output.This
is set by the jumper position on P1.
5 - Connect the voltmeter to terminal 5, (Integral Output), and momentarily re-
move the jumper from terminal 10 (Enable).This will reset the integrator and
terminal 5 should read 0 V. Reconnect the jumper and note that the voltage
on terminal 5 should ramp up to approximately +1 V in 0.5 SEC.
6 - Adjust RV3 (Derivative Control) to fully CCW (0 SEC).There is no pre-set for
this control and it’s setting is application dependent.
7 - The Minimum Adjustment potentiometer RV2 provides a minimum excitation
voltage to the Dancer potentiometer when there is no Line Speed Reference,
such as on start-up. This setting is also application dependent and is nor-
mally set so that a neutral Dancer position is maintained. It is initially set
fully CCW (0 V).
In summary, using the initial settings, a full range change in the mechanical
Dancer position will provide a (+/-) 10% proportional change in the set Line
Speed.The Integral output, which is summed with the proportional change, will
be limited to a maximum of 1 V, with an integration time of 0.5 SEC. The deriva-
tive time is set to 0 SEC by RV3, and the minimum Dancer excitation voltage is
set to fully CCW (0 V) by RV2. The neutral Dancer operating position can be set
by the Dancer position potentiometer. However, it is recommended that the
mechanical Dancer neutral position be set in the middle of the mechanical range
so that full range control may be realized.

Installation
Before attempting any installation make sure that all power is turned off to
the equipment being worked on. As mentioned previously, the AA1069 card is
a stand alone module and can be installed in a variety of ways. It should be
mounted in a protective enclosure, which is well ventilated. For mounting, there
are four holes, as shown in Fig. 1B, for use with stand-offs, or the fast-track that
is supplied may be used. The card requires a 120 VAC supply, which should be
fused at 1.0 AMP. Referring to Fig.’s 1A and 2 make all external interconnections
using shielded twisted wire. All wiring should be in accordance with good stan-
dard practices and any codes that may apply.
Note: Some Model Drives require the use of the AA1081 Inverter / Buffer
card with the AA1069 Module. Please refer to Appendix 1B for installation
and set-up.
Initial Set-up
Since the AA1069 card is designed to be used in a variety of winder applica-
tions, and with various SAFTRONICS drives, the initial settings suggested in
Table 1 are for reference only. The final settings will be dictated by the particular
application in which it is used. Referring to Table 1 and Fig.’s 1A and 2, proceed
as follows for the initial set-up.
1 - With the drive disconnected and the AA1069 installed as above, apply
power to the card. Temporarily connect a jumper from terminal 8 ( (-) 12 V)
and 10 (Enable). Adjust RV2 (Minimum Adjustment) to fully CCW (0 V ).Then
apply the appropriate full scale LINE SPEED REFERENCE voltage, between
terminal 1 or 2 and terminal 7 GND. i.e., the voltage that would represent
maximum line speed. Ensure that the proper jumpers are in place, L1 and L4
for a positive reference, or L2 and L3 for negative.
2 - Connect a voltmeter to terminal 3 ( Dancer + Supply) and terminal 7(GND)
then adjust RV1(Speed Adj.) for +10 V. Check that terminal 4 (Dancer (-)
Supply) is (-) 10 V. Next check that the slider on both the Dancer (terminal
13) and Dancer Position (terminal 6) potentiometers adjust from (+/-) 10 V
throughout their range with 0 V in mid-position.
NOTE: the Dancer slider should read 0V when in it’s mechanical neutral
position. Also, the polarity of the Dancer input at terminal 13 must be in
a direction as to provide the proper feedback.
3 - Ensure that jumpers L5 and L6 are in, and set the Dancer slider to it’s neutral
position (0 V) (or disconnect it) . Adjust the Position Input potentiometer for
(-) 10 V at terminal 6. Connect the voltmeter to terminal 11 (Proportional
Output) and adjust RV6 to obtain +1 V output or approximately 10% of the
Dancer input.

Description
The AA1069 Dancer Control Card is a stand alone module that can be used to
interface certain SAFTRONICS Drives (models specified later in this manual)
with winder applications. It accepts a dancer operated potentiometer input while
providing potentiometer excitation voltage and PID control to the drive.The card
has a broad range of adjustments through the use of potentiometers and jumpers
allowing optimum performance to be set in each application.
