INTRODUCTION

3.

Make sure that each PDM has the Personality Module (PM) properly configured. If necessary, refer
to the Applying Power chapter in the appropriate ULTRA Plus or IQ-Series Installation Manual
(1398-5.1, Part Number 0013-1027-004 or Part Number 0013-1022-004) for step-by-step instruc-
tions on configuring a Personality Module using IQ Master software.

4.

Install all covers. Connect all interface cables (P1-P7) to the PDMs.

5.

Make sure that the motor is not connected to the load when applying power to prevent any mechan-
ical damage in case of a fault. Apply input power with all PDMs disabled and check the bi-color
status LED on the PDM. The LED should turn green. If the status LED is red rather than green, the
PDM is in a fault condition. Select Status from the Monitor menu to find out the type of fault. Cor-
rect the fault (the status LED will turn green when the fault has been cleared and a hard reset per-
formed). Check that the fans are operating. The green PSM READY LED should turn on and
remain on.

6.

Select Encoder from the Diagnostics menu. Verify that Counts increases positively when the motor
shaft is rotated clockwise as viewed facing the motor shaft.

7.

Remove input power. The PDM and PSM LEDs should turn off within one second. Measure DC
bus to ensure voltage is below 15 VDC.

Motor Start-Up Procedure

This motor start-up procedure is for

ULTRA Plus

or IQ-2000 and IQ-5000 systems only.

1.

The motor(s) should be disconnected from the mechanical load(s) when initially checking out the
system. If this is not possible, take adequate precautions in case of a fault.

2.

Disconnect all interface cables from the PDM and remove the cover. Connect the 4 motor wires (R,
S, T, and ground) to the proper PDM. Install all covers and connect all interface cables to the PDM.
With each PDM disabled, re-apply input power and check for proper power-up diagnostics as
shown by the status LED on each unit.

3.

Select Gains/Limits from the Parameter menu. Set Ilimit to a low value (25% of peak current is a
typical value). Select Velocity/Acceleration from the Parameter menu and set the Jog Velocity to a
relatively low speed, such as 50 RPM. Enable each PDM and make sure there is no shaft motion.
Activate the Jog forward input and check for clockwise rotation of each motor shaft as viewed fac-
ing the motor shaft. If motor does not turn clockwise, then check that motor power wires and
encoder wires are connected properly.

4.

Disable all PDMs and turn off input power. Measure the DC bus voltage to be sure that it is below
15 VDC.

5.

Now that the system installation is verified, return the Ilimit parameter to a value to suit the appli-
cation.

ATTENTION

!

Motors can cause extensive damage and injury if mounted improperly.
