Operation

Operation of BLR-ACX is done by 4 keys .

Figure 2. Operational keys

Submenus are scrolled through by pushing the 

 (up) key  

or 

 (down) key .

Pressing 

 (  right / Enter) key allows selection, entering the 

edit mode or accepts the edited values .
In edit mode, the 

 (left / esc) key or 

 (  right / Enter) key scroll 

left and right to allow setting of the appropriate digit .
Outside of edit mode, the 

 (left / esc) key exits to the next 

higher level .
Press and hold the 

 (left / esc) key for approximately 3 seconds 

to silence any alarms .

Commissioning

Step 1

Upon power on the controller displays the existing power factor 

value “X.XX i” and enters the Automatic Control mode.

The “i” at the end indicates an inductive power factor and would 

be appropriate for most installations . A “c” at the end indicates 

capacitive power factor and suggests reactive power export and 

may not be appropriate . Refer to the troubleshooting section for 

resolution steps .

Step 2

Next step is to set up the basic parameters in the controller .
Press the 

 (down) key to step through the “INFO”, “MANUAL”  

and to “SETUP” mode . Press the 

 (  right /Enter) key to enter  

the Menu 100 and program and or verify the following values .
Un  Nominal voltage (factory programmed, customer may verify)

Ct 

CT-ratio (Factory set to 600, Customer to program if  

 

measurement feature is desired. Refer to Step 3). Note  

 

that this ratio is NOT needed for PF correction and is  

 

only required for accurate measurement values. Changing  

 

the CT ratio will change the capacitor step sizes in 402  

 

and those values will have to be re-programmed.

Pt   PT-ratio (factory programmed)
Ai   Start of automatic initialization (factory programmed)
PFC   PF-control ON/OFF/ HOLD (factory programmed)

CP1   Target-PF (customer to program)

St   Switching time delay (factory programmed, customer  

 

may verify)

Out  Type of each stage (Auto/ Alarm/ Foff/ Fon) (factory  

 

programmed, customer may verify)

Once the Menu 100 is programmed, press the 

 (left / esc)  

key to return to the main screen that displays the existing PF .
