1. When on temporary operation, connect the following:
a. The AC receptacle cord from the IOF Card - CON18, pins 1, 2, and 3.
b. The AC plug from the IOF Card - CON18, pins 4, 5, and 6.
• The UPS should not be in the AC circuit during temporary operation. See
Figure 3.
• If battery lowering is not required for the job, no UPS will be provided.
• When battery lowering is not present, Manufacturing installs jumper wires
from CON18 pin 1 to pin 4, pin 2 to pin 5, and pin 3 to pin 6 on the IOF Card.
• The UPS may be mounted below the controller - Use the shipping bracket
and screws to hold the UPS in place, and wire the plug through a knock
out in the bottom of the controller.
Figure 3 - UPS Unit Connections
2. Use a temporary jumper to connect EPD1 and EPD2 (located in the Trades
Access Panel, on the top of the controller). See Figure 4.
The EPD1 and EPD2 jumper will be replaced by an auxiliary set of contacts in the dis-
connect to prevent the control system from operating on any form of alternate power
when the disconnect is in the OFF position.

Runbug Set Up
(continued) 1. Remove the plug at CON16 on the IOF Card. See Figure 7.
Figure 7 - IOF Card (6300AHV001)
Initial power application occurs in the next step. If incorrect, the electronic starter
may be damaged.
2. View the nameplate sticker on the electronic starter to determine its voltage rating,
and view the power unit data tag for the motor voltage rating.
a. Compare these ratings to the known building voltage provided at the disconnect.
Before continuing, correct as required.
Most electronic starters are rated at 200-460VAC (and for special applications up to
575VAC), and should not be damaged by incorrect voltage from the disconnect that is
within this range. However, Electronic Starter #787AF14 is rated for 200-230VAC, and
application of 3 phase voltage above that rating could damage it.
b. Turn ON the mainline disconnect.
3. Use a volt meter on the AC mode, and confirm that the secondary output from XFMR1
is between 108VAC and 132VAC.
If the voltage is not correct, do not continue until this issue is resolved.
4. Turn OFF the mainline disconnect.
5. Install the plug at CON16 on the IOF Card.
6. Remove CON9A, located at the bottom left corner of the IOF Card. Be sure to save
CON9A as it will be reinstalled after temporary operation.

Pump Motor Rotation
Swapping motor leads to correct motor rotation will result in a motor wiring
fault. Motor rotation is controlled through adjustments in the starter and
also the line input to the starter.
1. Turn ON the mainline disconnect.
2. Momentarily press UP and SAFE on the temporary run box, and observe the
direction of the motor rotation (clockwise rotation is standard for Vertical Express
equipment when viewed from the shaft end).
ABC = Standard Dry (AP) units (CW rotation as viewed from the shaft end). The
motor is mounted to the left of the pump.
CBA = Standard Wet (EP) units (CCW rotation as viewed from the pump end).
– If the motor rotation is correct, continue to Step 5.
– If the rotation is incorrect, complete the appropriate procedure below.
• For Mechanical Starters - Reverse L1 and L2 on the starter.
• For Electronic Starters - Change the line rotation setting in the starter.
a. Press once. The STATUS menu displays.
b. Press twice. The PARAMETERS menu displays.
c. Press and STARTING AMPS displays.
d. Press until LINE ROTATION displays.
e. Press to access the value.
f. Press for CBA. (CBA = standard wet unit.)
g. Press to select the value displayed.
h. Press to accept the value, or to reject the change. If the wrong value is
accepted, repeat steps e. through h.
3. Verify the correct motor wiring. See Figure 11 on page 1-14.
4. Check the motor rotation direction. If the direction is incorrect or if the
motor is making loud sounds, swap two phase leads at the top of the con-
troller’s main line fuses (FL1 - FL3).
5. Confirm the motor rotation. It may take multiple attempts to get the incoming line
phase relationship correct.

Figure 11 - Electronic Starter Pump Motor Wiring Diagram
I-2/I-3 Valve
The I-2/I-3 Valve is preset by Manufacturing, assembled on the power unit, and has been
tested and adjusted. The presets are attached inside the controller, ensure movement of
the car, and reduce final adjustment time.
• The I-2/I-3 Valve requires a minimum static system pressure of 90 PSI to function
properly.
• Adjust and confirm the Relief Pressure and Low Pressure on each job—at this
time if possible.
• If the empty sling is too light to achieve 90 PSI, defer the Low Pressure adjustment
until the cab is installed and 90 PSI is achieved.
• Valves by other manufacturers: refer to the applicable valve product manual for
initial setup - Bypass/Low Pressure and Relief Pressure Adjustments.

(continued) Relief Pressure Verification
This preliminary check is to ensure that the pipe couplings and valve will not be dam-
aged if the elevator system’s oil flow or platform become restricted. The final check
for the relief pressure is set with the procedure Final Relief Pressure with Full Load on
page 2-33.
1. Close the shut-off valve.
2. Install a pressure gauge on the silencer's quick connect.
Immediately stop the power unit if the pressure exceeds 625 PSI.
3. While monitoring the pressure gauge, run the power unit in the up direction from
the runbug in short bursts. Once confirmed that the pressure will not exceed 625
PSI, the pump motor can run constantly to verify the relief pressure setting.
4. Adjust the pressure relief (if necessary) to reduce pressure below 625 PSI.
a. IN (CW) = Increase Relief Pressure
b. OUT (CCW) = Decrease Relief Pressure
5. Briefly open the Manual Lowering Valve to relieve pressure from the valve, and
confirm that the valve is fully closed when finished.
Low Pressure Adjustment
When operating elevator from the controller, follow all safety precautions.
• If the low pressure adjustment is made with the CPUC online, temporarily set
the Z44 timer to 10 seconds, and run the motor less than 10 seconds at a
time from Inspection Operation.
• OUT = Counterclockwise, CCW
IN = Clockwise, CW
1. Ensure that the car is empty and the manual lowering valve is closed.
2. Turn OFF, Lockout, and Tagout the mainline disconnect.
3. Disconnect CON15 (on the IOF Card in the controller) to disable the
valve’s up slow solenoid.
4. Turn the Low Pressure adjustment screw OUT 13/4" beyond the cover
plate. See Figure 12 on page 1-16.
5. Turn the Low Pressure adjustment screw IN by hand until it touches the regu-
lator piston.

Low Pressure Adjustment
(continued)
6. Turn the power ON, and use the runbug to start the motor.
7. Turn the Low Pressure adjustment screw IN just until the car starts to move.
8. Turn the Low Pressure adjustment screw OUT until the car movement stops.
9. After the car stops, turn the Low Pressure adjustment screw OUT an additional one-
half turn.
10. Tighten the locknut.
11. Stop the motor, and turn the power OFF.
12. Reconnect CON15 to enable the valve’s up slow solenoid.
