FIRST TIME OPERATION
On delivery, the device is parameterized to the respective power section, and the
TAKT operating mode is set. You should review these standard parameters, and, if
necessary, adjust them for your application.
To Operate the Thyro-PX Unit for the First Time
1. Install the unit according to the installation procedures in this user manual.
The minimum connections are power, load,
SETPOINT

By default, the unit is configured to require a customer supplied
PULSE
LOCK
jumper. The unit may be customer configured to not require this
jumper.
2. Turn on the system circuit breakers and apply AC input to the unit.
When the unit receives AC input, it performs self-diagnostics. If the unit detects
an error, the unit sets the respective fault bits and illuminates the
FAULT

or the red
ON/READY
LED if the fault is severe. You will not be able to apply
power to the load until you clear the fault.
3. Verify that the green
ON/READY
LED is lit.
4. Verify that the
LIMIT
LED is not lit.
5. Verify that the
PULSE LOCK
LED is not lit.

FAULT
LED is not lit.
7. Verify that an increase in setpoint applies power to the load.
If the Thyro-PX unit is delivering power and the
LIMIT

functioning properly.
