Setting the Extend Travel Limit 

Switch (S4)

   1.  Remove the control module cover.

  2.  Extend the output shaft to the desired travel 

limit.  For Options 3 & 5, skip to step 3.  For 

Option 7:  De-energize the motor by turning 

toggle switch S1 (see Fig. 3) to stop (center 

position).    Turn  the  Handwheel  until  the 

position  feedback  signal  (measured  across 

terminals 14 (+) & 13 (–)) increases by .005 ± 

.001 mA (1.25 mV ± .25).  The .005 mA is the 

over-travel range.  NOTE: If direction of travel 

is set for retract on increasing demand, then 

turn  the  Handwheel  until  the  output  signal 

decreases by .005 ± .001 mA (1.25 ± .25 mV). 

  3.  Disconnect the power from the drive.

 4. 

a.  For actuators with Option 3 or 5, connect 

the  continuity  meter  across  terminals  2 

and  10.    Rotate  the  cam  (see  Fig.  2  at 

right)  until  the  meter  shows  an  increase 

in  resistance  from  approx.  100  ohms  to 

more  than  1  M  ohms  (switch  contacts 

open, switch clicks).

    b.  For  actuators  with  Option  7,  remove  the 

cable tie holding the switch wires, remove 

the two wires from the extend limit switch 

(top switch), and attach the meter across 

these  contacts.    See  Fig.  3  at  right.  

Rotate the cam (see Fig. 2 at right) until 

the  meter  shows  no  continuity  (switch 

contacts open, switch clicks).

  5.  Disconnect  the  meter  and  reconnect  switch 

wires and actuator power.

  6. Retract the output shaft and note the direction 

that the Retract limit switch cam rotates.  The 

correct  cam  lobe  motion  is  away  from  the 

switch lever and the switch lever should be on 

the lower part of the cam.  If this is not correct, 

return to step 2 and reset the cam to the proper 

orientation. 

  7. Retract the output shaft to the desired travel 

limit.  If the desired stopping point is reached, 

the switch is properly set.

  8. For Option 7, redress the switch wires and secure 

to the control board standoff with a cable tie.

  9.  Replace the control module cover.

Adjust cam by inserting a small screwdriver 

(or  similarly  sized  tool)  in  one  of  the 

adjustment slots and slowly rotating the cam.
