10.2 The Hi-Pot Tester must have an automatic ramp-up to the test voltage and an automatic

ramp-down to zero voltage.

Note: If the Hi-Pot Tester does not have automatic ramping, then the hi-pot output must be manually

increased to the test voltage and then manually reduced to zero. This procedure must be followed for each

machine to be tested. A suggested Hi-Pot Tester is Slaughter Model 2550.

CAUTION! Instantaneously applying the hi-pot voltage will cause irreversible damage to the control.

11 TRIMPOT ADJUSTMENTS

The control contains trimpots which have been factory set for most applications. Some applications may require

readjustment of the trimpots in order to tailor the control for a specific requirement. Readjust the trimpots as

described below. See Figure 1, on page 10, for the location of trimpots.

Warning! If possible, do not adjust trimpots with the main power applied. If adjustments are

made with the main power applied, an insulated adjustment tool must be used and safety

glasses must be worn. High voltage exists in this control. Electrocution can result if caution is not exer-

cised. Safety Warning, on page 6, must be read and understood before proceeding.

Note: In order for the IR Compensation and Current Limit settings to be correct, the proper Plug-In Horsepower

Resistor® must be installed for the particular motor and input voltage being used.

See Section 9, on page 21.

11.1 Acceleration Trimpot (ACCEL) – The ACCEL Trimpot is provided to allow for a

smooth start over an adjustable time period each time the AC power is applied

or the Main Speed Potentiometer is adjusted to a higher speed. The ACCEL

Trimpot has been factory set to 2 seconds, which is the amount of time it will

take for the motor to accelerate from zero speed to full speed. To increase the

acceleration time, rotate the ACCEL Trimpot clockwise. To decrease the accel-

eration time, rotate the ACCEL Trimpot counterclockwise. See Figure 14.
