Quick Start
Guide
If networking multiple fans to run using a single control
source, the dipswitch settings and wiring on each fan’s
VFD circuit board will need to be adjusted using the
following instructions.
DIPSWITCH 3
DIPSWITCH 2
First Fan
1. Determine the first fan in the network daisy-
chain by identifying the fan that will be directly
connected to the control source.
2. Dipswitch 2 is used to set parameters that improve
network function. Verify that each of the switches
on dipswitch 2 are set as follows:
Position 1 – Off
Position 2 – On
Position 3 – On
3. Dipswitch 3 is used to set unique Modbus
addresses for each fan in the daisy-chain. Adjust
positions 1-5 on dipswitch 3 to set the desired
Modbus address. A table with all possible Modbus
addresses is shown to the right.
IMPORTANT:
Positions 6 - 8 are used to set parameters
needed for fan operation and should not be adjusted.
Default settings are as follows:
Position 6 – On
Position 7 – Off
Position 8 – Off
4. Verify that the low voltage wiring terminal strip
on the VFD circuit board is wired as shown in the
diagram and picture on this pages 36-37. Reinstall
the black plastic cover that was previously set
aside on the front of the VFD.
