CHANGING OUTPUT SHAFT 

DIRECTION OF TRAVEL

  Direction of travel is defined as the direction 

of output shaft travel produced by an increasing 

signal.    Direction  of  travel  is  determined  by 

looking  at  the  end  of  the  output  shaft.  Unless 

otherwise  specified  at  the  time  of  order,  the 

factory  set  output  shaft  travel  is  to  extend  in 

response to an increasing signal.

  The  following  procedure  should  be  followed 

to check or change the direction of travel of the 

output shaft.

  This  is  up  to  a  three  procedure  process 

depending  on  the  actuator  control  option.   The 

procedures are as follows:

  1. Interchange limit switch wires.

  2. Calibrate position feedback signal.

  3. Test/calibrate the Demand input signal.

CAUTION

Be sure the actuator is disconnected 

from the line voltage and the auxiliary 

switches are disconnected from 

the external power sources before 

proceeding with direction change 

procedure.

Interchange Limit Switch Wires

  1. Remove the control module cover.

  2. To reverse the output shaft direction of travel, 

the  wires  to  the  common  terminals  of  travel 

limit switches S3 and S4 must be interchanged.  

The  common  terminals  are  those  located 

furthest  from  the  switch  labels  and  nearest 

to the power transformer (see Figure 4, this 

page).

  3. For extend output shaft travel on an increasing 

signal,  the  orange  wire  must  be  on  the 

common terminal of S4 and the brown wire on 

the common terminal of S3.

  4. For retract output shaft travel on an increasing 

signal, the brown wire must be on the common 

terminal of S4 and the orange wire must be on 

the common terminal of S3.  

  5. Locate  plug  P4  on  the  control  board.  It  is  a 

three wire plug with a grey, blue and yellow 

wire attached to it.  See Figure 6, page 18, for 

the location of plug P4.

  6. For extend output shaft travel on an increasing 

signal,  plug  P4  must  be  attached  to  the 

terminal labeled CW. Note that this is a locking 

type plug and must be located properly in its 

receptacle.  The tapered side of the plug must 

be against the tapered side of the receptacle.  

See Option 5 or 7 wiring diagram, page 7 or 8.

  7. For retract output shaft travel on an increasing 

signal,  this  plug  must  be  attached  to  the 

terminal labeled CCW.

 8. 

If the direction of travel of the output shaft is 

changed;  the  feed back  signal,  the  feedback 

potentiometer,  and  (for  Option  7)  the  input 

signal must be recalibrated.  See instructions 

beginning on page 16.

  9. End of procedure for the control option 3 drive.  

For  options  5  and  7,  continue  to  Feedback 

signal calibration procedure (page 16).
