To monitor the status of this input, monitor the “PTC
Status” register for the following:
Table 10. PTC Sensor Status
PTC Connection: PTC wiring is connected to terminals
T1 & T2 in any polarity. This connector is designed to
accept 0.2 mm
2
(24 AWG) to 2.5 mm
2
(12 AWG) wire.
The use of twisted pair wiring is strongly recommended.
Shielded cable should be used when the cable lengths
exceed 100ft (30m) or as needed. It’s recommended that
the cable shield be earth referenced near the motor
frame. Cable resistance as measured at the T1 & T2
terminals must not exceed 10 ohms to retain short
circuit monitoring along the entire length of the cable run
