Step 3 - selecting the motor

Selecting the motor
Motor selection is done with the 16 position

rotary switch on the front of the drive; refer to

the label on the drive to see the motor choices

available to you. Turn the rotary switch to the

number that represents the motor you have.

This selects important information stored on

the drive, such as current and anti-resonance

settings, to get the best performance from

your motor.

Setting up the Drive

Sets the running current to

70%, 80%, 90% or 100% of the

motor’s rated maximum current.

50% or 90% of the

selected running

current.

The STR has a built in Self Test function. If switch 8 is

moved to the ON position the drive will automatically rotate

the motor back and forth, two turns in each direction. This

feature can be used to confirm that the motor is correctly

wired, selected and otherwise operational.
