GS10 AC Drive Quick-Start Guide
GS10_QSP 1st Edition 06/15/2022
Introduction – How To Get Started
Automationdirect.com would like to thank you for your purchase of the Durapulse GS10 AC drive. The GS10
drive is a state-of-the-art, full-featured AC drive. The Quick-Start Guide below will introduce you to many of
the GS10 drive features and help you configure the GS10 drive in a minimum amount of time.
Emergency Stop
The GS10 drive offers a standard Emergency Stop circuit.
Please see the Control-Circuit Wiring diagrams and Safety wiring (
) for how to wire the multifunction
input as the Emergency Stop.
After wiring the drive (
but before applying power
), test the system by pressing the E-stop button (or otherwise
break the safety circuit) and verify that the E-stop digital input is triggered. When the E-stop is active, EF1 will
display on the drive LED and the drive will not run.
Powering Up the GS10 Drive
Apply AC line power to the GS10 drive, but don’t engage the safety circuit yet (keep the E-stop PB pushed in).
Starting, Stopping, and Controlling the Speed of the GS10 Drive
Out of the box GS10 drives are set to use the keypad buttons to RUN and STOP the drive and vary the drive
speed. The drive can also be configured to run from potentiometers, external pushbuttons, etc.
Do not attempt to run the motor yet. Certain parameters (especially the motor protection parameters) must
be set first.
Configure the Drive
The tables below list those parameters typically used in most applications. You can navigate to any of these
parameters through the keypad. (Refer to
for information and instructions for using the Digital
Keypad.) Before configuring the drive, reset the drive to defaults. Set P00.02=9 (50Hz) or 10 (60Hz). Then cycle
power to the drive.
All applications need to configure the parameters in the “Quick Configuration” table. At minimum, you MUST
configure these motor parameters before operating the drive:
• 01.02 Motor1 Max Output Voltage (this will typically be either 230V or 460V)
• 05.01 Motor1 Rated Amps (depends on the motor)
• 01.01 Motor1 Max Output Frequency (this will typically be 50Hz or 60Hz)
The main configuration parameters required to get your drive up and running are included in this guide.
For more advanced configuration options, please see the User Manual. Your application will dictate which
parameters need to be configured. It is NOT necessary to configure every parameter listed in the tables in the
User Manual, use only those you need.

After configuring the minimum settings, you can now engage the safety circuit. The RUN and STOP/RESET
buttons should Start and Stop the drive. To adjust the output frequency, press the MENU button until the
frequency screen appears. Use the Up and Down arrow buttons to adjust the frequency, the press ENTER to
confirm. Press ENTER again to return to the main menu.
Parameter Set Up
DURA
pulse
GS10 AC Drives offer parameter setup from the keypad for some of the most common drive
applications. Choose parameters from the table below, then set the applicable parameters for that
application as shown.
To Configure Parameters:
From the power up screen:
1) Press
MENU
until you see
H 0.00
(this is the actual drive frequency) and press
ENTER
.
2) Use the
UP/DWN
arrows to select the parameter group you want and press
ENTER
.
3) Use the
UP/DWN
arrows to select the parameter number you want within that group and press
ENTER
.
4) Change the value of the parameter using the
UP/DWN
arrows and press
ENTER
.
5) Press
MENU
to exit back to the main menu.
6) Repeat as needed until all required parameters are configured.
Please refer to the user manual if you need more detailed information about the
parameters.

Note:
In fast start up mode, the drive skips
detecting IGBT signal and will run
immediately. When using fast start up mode:
• Terminal output stays in ready status and
drive responds to commands immediately.
• The output terminal will have higher
voltage
• If the drive is short circuited an OC error
will display when running up
