Application Specific Adjustments 

 

These settings are factory preset to provide optimum performance in a wide variety of applications, and should 

not be changed unless the user is specifically aware of the risks and consequences (contact factory for details). 

 

Brake  On Delay (Switch SW1) 

This DIP switch controls the amount of time that the ABC Series brake waits prior to applying DC current to the 

motor windings in order to allow the magnetic field to decay. The rate of decay varies with motor frame size, so 

this 

SHOULD  NOT  BE  CHANGED

.  Changing  this  setting  could  result  in  damage  to  the  ABC  Series 

components and circuit protective devices. If your application requires a specific delay time, please contact the 

factory for assistance. 

 

Zero Speed Sensing Disable (Jumper X3) 

If for some reason you need to disable the Zero Speed Sensing, remove this jumper. The ABC Series  will then 

continue  braking  for  the  entire  Brake  Time  setting,  even  if  the  motor  has  already  come  to  a  complete  stop. 

Disconnecting the sensing lead to the "T3" terminal, will cause a "Wiring Error" fault, and therefore should not be 

used as a means of disabling the Zero Speed Sense circuit. 

 

50 Hz Operation (Power Board Jumper X1) 

Remove this jumper on units ordered as 60 Hz, but required to operate at 50 Hz. Units ordered as 50 Hz will not 

have this jumper, so it must be installed for testing on 60 Hz systems. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

CAUTION! 

Some adjustments and devices visible on the ABC Series boards are preset at the factory and should NOT 

be field  adjusted without specific instructions  from  factory authorized  service personnel.  These devices 

include: P1  and  P2  potentiometers, and  push  button PB1. Tampering or  altering these  devices may void 

your  warranty.
