CHAPTER 2:
INSTALLATION and CONFIGURATION
This section covers the hardware configurations using the switches, jumpers, connectors,
and power connections when used with a brush or brushless motor. Wiring, grounding,
shielding techniques, and the motor phasing process are also covered.
Aside from the obvious requirements of AC input power and motor wiring, the only
other typical requirement is to define the Ndrive HLs communication channel number via
switch S2 (see Section 2.7).
2.1. Safety Procedures and Warnings
The following statements apply wherever the Warning or Danger symbol appears within
this manual. Failure to observe these precautions could result in serious injury to those
performing the procedures and/or damage to the equipment.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the
manufacturer, the protection by the equipment may be
impaired. The user should practice caution when following
the given procedures. Deviation from this may result in
damage to the equipment or machinery.
To minimize the possibility of electrical shock and bodily
injury, ensure that the motor is decoupled from the
mechanical system and no harm to personnel will result if
the motor begins to spin.
To minimize the possibility of electrical shock and bodily
injury when any electrical circuit is in use, ensure that no
person is exposed to the circuitry.
To minimize the possibility of bodily injury, make certain
that all electrical power switches (all switches external to
the amplifier) are in the off position prior to making any
mechanical adjustments.
