If the power system to be adjusted is an MX60, MX90 or an MX135, the procedure involves
matching the output voltage of the A, B and C power modules in the master cabinet to the A, B
and C power modules in the auxiliary cabinet(s). Proceed as follows:
1. Verify the controller is indeed set for 3-phase operation (MX60, MX90 or MX135).
2. Shut off all power to the cabinets. Disconnect the two wires going to Terminal 6 and Terminal
7 on the lower front of the power modules. Do this to module A, B and C in the auxiliary
cabinet(s) only. Place some temporary insulation over the lug ends.
3. Connect a DMM between terminals 6 and 7 on the A module in the master cabinet. Power
up the cabinet. Set the controller to the 300V range, program 230V at 60Hz. Enable the
output by pressing the OUTPUT ON/OFF key. Measure the A module output voltage and
write it down. Press the OUTPUT ON/OFF key to disable the output.
4. Move DMM leads to the B module terminals 6 and 7. Press the OUTPUT ON/OFF key to
enable the output. Measure the B module output and write it down, Press the OUTPUT
ON/OFF key to disable the output.
5. Move DMM leads to the C module terminals 6 and 7. Press the OUTPUT ON/OFF key to
enable the output. Measure the C module output and write it down, Press the OUTPUT
ON/OFF key to disable the output.
6. Move the DMM leads to the A module terminals 6 and 7 in the auxiliary cabinet. Press the
OUTPUT ON/OFF key again to enable the output. Verify the phase A module output is within
50mVolts of the A module in the master cabinet. If it is not, adjust the pot behind the hole in
the upper left corner of the module so the A output matches the A master output within
50mVolts. Press the OUTPUT ON/OFF key to disable the output.
7. Move the DMM leads to the B module terminals 6 and 7 in the auxiliary cabinet. Press the
OUTPUT ON/OFF key again to enable the output. Verify the phase B module output is within
50mVolts of the B module in the master cabinet. If it is not, adjust the pot behind the hole in
the upper left corner of the module so the B output matches the B master output within
50mVolts. Press the OUTPUT ON/OFF key to disable the output.
8. Move the DMM leads to the C module terminals 6 and 7 in the auxiliary cabinet. Press the
OUTPUT ON/OFF key again to enable the output. Verify the phase C module output is within
50mVolts of the C module in the master cabinet. If it is not, adjust the pot behind the hole in
the upper left corner of the module so the C output matches the C master output within
50mVolts. Press the OUTPUT ON/OFF key to disable the output.
9. If power system under adjustment is an MX135, then repeat steps 6, 7 and 8 above for the
second auxiliary cabinet.
10. Power down system and replace the wires to terminals 6 and 7 on the auxiliary power
modules.
