IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR USERS

Power Connections

Supply

Voltage

Selection

The PKC60M/80M Packaged Drive is supplied with its supply voltage
selector set to 230V, as shown below.

 

115V

230V

AC SUPPLY

VOLTAGE

115V AC operation can be set by adjustment of the supply selector,
which is positioned by the supply input connector (see 

Mains Supply

in 

Installation).

Note: No change of fuse is required between 230V and 115V
operation.

Supply Cable

The drive is supplied with two mains supply cables:

IEC connector to an American style 3-pin plug - for use at 115V

IEC connector to flying leads - for use at 230V or 115V.

Factory

Jumper Link

Settings

The PKC Series uses CD60M/CD80M drives which are configured by
jumper link settings.  As supplied from the factory, the link settings will
give the following drive performance:

Standby current reduction 50% of full load
Drive resolution 400 steps/rev
Energise permanently enabled
Motor current set to a minimum

To alter any of these settings refer to Chapter 3 Setting Up The
CD60/80M Drive.
