Drive parameters

View the current output Hz, Amps & heat 

sink temperature .

Used for diagnostic purposes in troubleshooting overheating drive .

Motor Type

(Submersible/Above Ground) Change 

setting for the type of pump motor

This option in used to change the setting for the type of pump motor 

the control was set to use during the initial set-up menu .

Manual run pump mode

(Off/On) Sets pump to run without 

pressure switch . 

Default OFF

Turn on a manual run condition at a set frequency for a defined 

amount of time .

Set manual pump 

frequency:

(50, 60, 70, 80 Hz) 

Default 60 Hz .

Set the constant frequency (motor speed) of the Pump . (only required 

if manual mode ON)

Set manual pump run time: (1/2, 1, 4, 8, 16, 24, 48, Cont .) - Hours) 

Default 24 Hours .

Sets the time that the drive will run  before shutting itself off .  If set 

for Cont . (typically not recommended), the drive  will run continuously 

until it is stopped manually . Broken pipe mode is not active when 

manual run is on . (only required if manual mode ON) 

External control mode

(Off/On) . 

Default OFF .

Determines if the Alarm In contacts trips out the drive or just puts it in 

Standby Mode . If Off and the contacts wired to the Alarm In terminal 

blocks are inverse of the Alarm in Rely settings, the drive trips out on 

External Trip . (Used for protection like over pressure .) If On and the 

contacts wired to the Alarm In terminal blocks close, the drive goes to 

Standby Mode . (Used for control like a timer contact for an irrigation 

system .)

Alarm In Relay

(NO/NC) Sets alarm in contact settings . 

Default NO .

If set to normally Open, drive will operate normally when the contacts 

are open & trip (or go to standby mode) when contacts close . 

(Example: An irrigation timer closes a contact to single the drive to 

run, the Alarm In Relay setting should be set to NC (Normal Closed) 

for the drive to be active during the irrigation cycle .)

Drive status relay

(NO/NC) Sets alarm out relay as 

normally open or normally closed . 

Default NO .

The state of the relay changes when the drive trips .  Typically not for 

use in most residential applications .

Powered by Generator

(No/Yes)  

Default No .

Set the drive circuitry to expect power delivered from a gas driven 

generator .  Depending upon application a 5-10% pressure drop of can 

be experienced when the drive is running the pump & motor at full 

speed .

Ramp up sensitivity 

(Switch Control Mode)

(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) Sets Ramp Up speeds . 

Default 2 .

If excessive pressure fluctuations on pressure gage is noticed, the 

ramp rates can be adjusted .

Ramp down sensitivity 

(Switch Control Mode)

(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) Sets Ramp Down speeds 

Default 2 .

If excessive pressure fluctuations on pressure gage is noticed, the 

ramp rates can be adjusted .

Minimum Start-Up Time 

(Switch Control Mode)

0 .5-5 Seconds 

Default 1 .3

The minimum time the drive will ramp up when coming out of standby .

(9) Reset to factory defaults

Resets drive to factory defaults

Resets the drive to the initial start-up menu for drive set-up .

(10) Control Settings 

   (Transducer Control Mode)

Advance control settings for use with 

Transducer .

Transducer Calibration

Used to calibrate transducer reading with 

external pressure gage .

Enter Pressure Gauge 

Reading

20-80 PSI

Adjust value to match the pressure reading of the external pressure 

gauge & press enter .

PID Set Points

Adjust Transducer feedback control 

parameters .

By increasing this duration time, the amount of overpressure for 

drawdown can be increased .   Caution: Increasing this time too much 

has the potential of creating a high over pressure condition .

Set PID Control P 100-5000 Default: 400

Adjustments can change the quickness of the drive reacting to 

pressure changes  to reduce excessive pressure fluctuations .

Set PID Control D 1000-10000 Default: 5000
Set PID Control D 10-150 Default: 150

Pipe Fill Mode

Set Pipe Fill Time: 1-15 Minutes 

Default 3 min .

Sets the time limit that pipe fill mode is active .

Pipe Fill Mode (On, Off) Fill Pipe 

Default: Off

Turns On/Off Fill Pipe mode . When Pipe Fill mode is on, the drive will 

not trip out on Deadhead/Low PSI fault .

Access menu options by pressing and holding edit and enter for 3 seconds .
