Proportional Current mode, the EG Series valve output is a
pulse-width-modulated, high current output; the output voltage
will, during the valve on time, be equal to the DC input supply.
Refer to the wiring diagram for the proper wire connections.
Valve Drive Current - This menu function sets how the valve
drive operates the valve coil. Set to Curr.srce the control box
drive will provide a voltage to activate the valve coil, the other
side of the coil will need to be connected to ground. Set to
Curr.sink the control box drive will provide ground to activate
the valve coil, the other side of the coil will need to be connect-
ed to + battery voltage.
Valve Drive Current Limit - A few of the valves on the market
may require a limited amount of drive current, as not to dam-
age the valve itself. When the valve drive is set to Curr.srce,
the next menu will allow you to enable the Current Limit and set
a current limit to a maximum of 4.8 amps. If there is a current
limit required the valve information will tell you, make sure to
check all valve specification prior to setup.
When the valve drive is set to Curr.sink the current limit will
not be available. For most of the hydraulic valves on the mar-
ket, they will not require this function to be enabled.
