INSTALLATION
Unpacking
When unpacking your unit verify that the unit was not damaged during shipping. Report any damage found
to the shipper. Check the box contents against the packing slip. The box will contain the driver, an AC line
cord and manual. If a complete system was bought a motor will also be included.
Connect the motor to the driver, check that the AC switch selection is set to the proper voltage and set the
motor current, then plug in the AC line cord. Ensure the shaft of the motor is producing torque. If you are
able to rotate the motor shaft, the motor is not producing torque. Check if the fault LED is on; and unplug the
AC line cord. Check for any loose motor wires or a blown fuse. Contact the factory for a return authorization
if the above checks prove negative. IF the above test works turn off the drive and put the unit into the test
mode by placing dip-switch 2 position 7 to the on position. Plug the AC cord in; the motor will rotate 0.7
rev/second.
CAUTION, always disconnect the AC power prior to connecting or disconnecting the motor to the drive.
Mounting
The LN3X Drive comes with built in mounting brackets to facilitate mounting. The unit may be mounted in
any direction. Our built-in fan eliminates the need for the user to be concerned about cooling. It is
recommended that 3 inches be allowed around the box for air flow into the system. See appendix for a
detailed drawing of the driver dimensions.
Cooling
The drive has a fan cooled enclosure; the surrounding temperature of the environment should not exceed 40
degrees centigrade. If the driver needs to be in a warmer environment, consult the factory for
recommendations.
Wiring
Motor Connections
The drive has three connectors on the box; a standard AC inlet, a 25 pin "D" connector for the indexer, and
a 5 pin Phoenix connector for the motor.
If a motor is purchased with the drive, the motor will have the connector attached to it; otherwise a connector
with screw mountings will be supplied. The center pin of the connector is for the shield connection of the
motor cable. The center pin (shield) is connected to the motor case on PMC supplied motors. The motor
connections are listed below.
