2. Set the FINE adjustment to the fastest speed (fully clockwise)
(Fig.
NOTE:
The fine adjustment potentiometer does not have an end
stop. At the end of travel a clutch within the potentiometer slips
to indicate that you have reached the end.
3. Apply pulse inputs until the actuator reaches 0%.
4. Using a stopwatch measure the time it takes the actuator to
reach 100% by applying a constant increase signal.
5. Having obtained an actuator speed value in Step 4, use Table
to determine the coarse speed adjustment setting which
encompasses the actuator speed.
6. Turn the FINE adjustment potentiometer counterclockwise
(Fig.
) by an estimated number of turns to achieve a motor
speed that equals the speed of the actuator measured in Step 4.
