• Analog Inputs – 0 to 10Vdc
– Potentiometer
– Term 53 (P 308) set to “Reference” by default
– Term 54 (P 311) set to “No operation” by default
– Term 50 is +10Vdc; Term 55 is common
Analog Input – potentiometer.
A potentiometer or pot (typically 1K ohm) can be used to give a remote reference to
the drive. One side of the pot is wired to terminal 50 a source of +10Vdc. The other side of
the pot is wired to terminal 55, which is the Analog Input common. The middle tap is wired
to terminal 53, terminal 54 if a second pot is used. Parameter 309, minimum (0Vdc) and
310, maximum (10Vdc) sets the usable voltages, max range 0 to 10Vdc. Parameter 308
sets the function for terminal 53, by default Reference. See the VLT 5000 Instruction manual
for other options. This pot operates the reference, only if parameter 002 is set to Remote.
For terminal 54, parameter 311 sets its function which is defaulted to “No
Operation”. Parameter 312, minimum (0Vdc) and 313, maximum (10Vdc) set the usable
voltage range.
