Mount Open Frame controls within an enclosure.
1. SELECTING 60 OR 120
PULSEOPERATION
Always have switch (S1) set to 120 on "master
control" P.C. card.
2. FUSE SIZE
To avoid failure of the DC motor, the fuse on this
control must be resized to match the fuse size listed
on the motor nameplate. Do not exceed 10 Amps
maximum.
3. TO LIMIT THE MAXIMUM
OUTPUT OF CONTROL
The
MAX
Output trimpot must be adjusted to
prevent the DC motor from being damaged when
the control is turned up to full power. Use a
voltmeter to monitor the output of the control. Do
not exceed the voltage shown on the nameplate of
the motor.
NOTE: Output to motor must be connected and
the control set for proper output frequency (120
pulse) setting. The Run Jumper must be
connected as shown on the wiring diagram.
A.
Power input should be
OFF
or
disconnected. Monitor the output of the
control with a DC voltmeter.
B. Rotate
MAIN CONTROL DIAL
on front
cover to 0 or its minimum setting.
C.
Open cover to allow access to printed
circuit card.
D. Using
CAUTION
, turn power
ON
(no output
should be present).
E. Rotate
the
MAIN CONTROL DIAL
on front
cover slowly to its highest setting.
F. Adjust
the
MAX
Output trimpot so that the
output to the DC motor reaches its
desired maximum level when the
MAIN
CONTROL DIAL
is turned fully clockwise.
Turning the MAX Output trimpot
clockwise increases the maximum output
level.
4. REMOTE OFF/ON CONTROL
Note: a Run Jumper has been installed at the
factory as shown on the enclosed wiring diagram.

control can be configured
to operate in one of the following ways.
A. A low current switch such as a paddle switch
can replace the factory-installed Run jumper
"J1." The "Run Contact" connects to
terminals 6 and 7. The contact must be able
to switch 5VDC and 2mA. The control will
then run only when the contact is closed.
Refer to Section A of the OFF/ON CONTROL
GUIDE.
B.
Feeder Bowl/Hopper Interlock allows the
Hopper control to operate only when the Bowl
is running and the paddle switch contact is
closed. The
interlock input
on terminals 11
and 12 of TB2 is controlled by the
interlock
output
of a "Parts Sensing Feeder Bowl
Control" such as an FC-90
Plus
Plus
Plus
Plus
.
Remove jumper "J1" of this control from
terminals 6 and 7. Connect the Hopper
Paddle switch to alternate terminals 5 and 6.
Connect TB2 terminals 11 and 12 of this
control to the "Parts Sensing Control". Refer
to Section B of the OFF/ON CONTROL
GUIDE. Check specific instructions for the
"Parts Sensing Control" wiring.
Note: Only use the Bowl/Hopper Interlock with
a FC-90 and FC-40 Series control. Two FC-
40 Series controls will not interlock to each
other since neither one has an
interlock
output
