How to Setup an External Stop/Start for a Solar Drive

| 0

When using a normal Open/Close Switch, connect the Normally Open wire with DI1 and the Common wire with Common and then set:

  • F0-02 = 1 (terminal control)

Ideally also set the following (please see notes further on for further explanation):

  • Set F6-20 = 1 (Free Stop Mode)
  • Set F4-35 = 15.0 (DI1 On Delay time to delay the Start-up Process)

If the External Device only has a Normally Closed connection (not Normally Open) the Solar Drive Start/Stop function will operate in the opposite way intended. In this case, also set:

  • F4-38 = 00001(Low Level Valid)

 

When using Push Buttons use a 3-Line Mode Stop/Start Setup:

  • F0-02 = 1 (Terminal Control)
  • F4-11 = 2 (3-Line Mode 1)
  • F4-00 = 1 (RUN Enabled) -> DI1 Terminal Connection
  • F4-01 = 3 (3-Line Control) -> DI2 Terminal Connection
  • 3rd Line Connected to COM

 

To add an Emergency Stop, connect the Emergency Stop Button to DI3 and COM and set:

  • F4-02 = 47 (DI3 Function as Emergency Stop)
