CHAPTER 1: MOTOR
Allows configuration of the motor parameters; HP, Voltage, Nominal Frequency, Nominal Speed, Motor Current,
Motor Service Factor, and Motor Type. The Motor information for these settings are found on the motor
nameplate.
The Start-Up Genie will begin automatically after the initial power up (Screen 2) or it can be engaged by
selecting Start-Up Genie under Quick Menus. First, select the language for programming (Screen 1), then you
will be led to the Setup Selection screen. Select “Motor” in the Setup Selection screen (Screen 3) and the Genie
will guide you through the following sequence of parameters. Press [OK] to select the parameter and enable
editing. The highlighted area can be modified by using the up and down arrows. For numeric values with more
than one digit, use the left and right keys to select the position within the number. Press [OK] to accept and save
or [Cancel] to disregard the change.

• Motor HP: Enter the rated motor power in HP from the motor nameplate data.*
• Motor Voltage: Set the rated motor voltage from the motor nameplate data.*
• Motor Frequency: Select the motor frequency from the motor nameplate data.*
• Motor Nominal Speed: Enter the rated motor speed from the motor nameplate
data.*
• Motor Current: Enter the rated motor current value from the motor nameplate
data.*
• Current Limit: Set the Current Limit equal to (Service Factor Amps/Full Load
Amps). For example, if the Motor Current (FLA) indicated on the motor nameplate
is 5.6A and the Motor Service Factor Current (SFA) is 6.4A, enter 114% for Current
Limit (%). Be sure to properly set the Motor Current (FLA) and Current Limit. These
parameters will configure the motor overload protection feature.
• Motor Type: Select Submersible for borehole application or Surface for above
ground motors. Based on selection, the following parameters will be backfilled:

• Sleep Frequency/Low Limit: Enter the minimum limit for motor speed. The motor
speed low limit can be set to correspond to the minimum output frequency of the
motor shaft. The motor speed low limit must not exceed Motor Frequency listed
above.
* Changing this parameter will affect settings of other parameters.
