CONFIGURATION
When connected to a motor equipped with the Smart Feedback Device (SFD), the S200 drive
will automatically configure most of its operating parameters. For many applications requiring
an analog torque or analog velocity block, no additional set up beyond the setting of the two
switches is required to fully commission the drive. For such cases, connection to a computer to
commission the drive is not required. The quick setup is useful for simplifying machine field
upgrades/repairs and for reducing spare part inventory. See Configuring with SFD Feedback.
The drive can also be configured for a simple analog Torque/Current control with 6-Step (Hall)
Feedback type by simply setting the switches. See Configuring Current Mode with 6-Step (Hall)
Feedback.
The S200 drive has many advanced capabilities to aid machine design through its diagnostic
and measurement capabilities accessed through the Windows compatible S200Tools GUI
utility. The drive also has many advanced motion capabilities that can be set up through the
S200Tools utility. For example, if desired, the settings of the switches can be overridden in
drive non-volatile memory to eliminate any accidental miss-adjustment of the drive in the field.
See the Advanced Configuration section for more details.
7.1 Switch
Settings
The configuration switches S1 and S2 are located on the top of the drive. Although the drive
can be configured to not use the switches, the factory default configuration uses the switches
for selecting Torque/Current versus Velocity operational mode, SFD or 6-step feedback device,
and emulated encoder line count.

S2 - DIP Setup Switch
S2 is a 4-position DIP switch. Switch positions 1 and 2 can set the operational mode and
feedback types when enabled. Setting the drive parameters as shown in the following table
enables the switch and is the factory default configuration. Switch positions 3 and 4 are
reserved for future functionality and should be left in the down/closed factory default position.
