General information
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any
consequences resulting from inappropriate ,
negligent or incorrect installation or adjustment of
the optional operating parameters of the equipment
or from mismatching the variable speed drive
(Drive) with the motor.

Drive software version
This product is supplied with the latest version of
user-interface and machine-control software. If this
product is to be used with other Control Techniques
variable speed drives in an existing system, there
may be some differences between their software
and the software in this product. These differences
will cause a difference in functions. This may also
apply to variable speed drives returned from a
Control Techniques Service Centre.

The Drive has three layers of configuration, starting
from the base layer (1) as follows:

Each of the upper layers (2, 3) is superimposed on its

preceeding layer.

A digit other than the least significant digit
(LSD) is being increased, and the maximum
value is approached.
The displayed LSD is not the same value as
the LSD of the maximum value. For
example: if the displayed value is 126.4, and
the maximum value is 217.9, the displayed
LSD of 4 differs from 9.
The special condition allows the value to be set at
either of the following:
The highest permissible value that contains
the displayed LSD (eg. 4)
The maximum value for the parameter
Use the following procedure to see how the
operation works:
1. Ensure the selected digit is not the LSD.
2. Press and hold down . When the

maximum value is reached, the entire display

the key within three flashes of the display. The
display now shows the highest permissible value
(eg. 216.4) that contains the displayed LSD.
3. Again press and hold down . When the

maximum value is reached, the entire display
again flashes the maximum value (eg. 217.9).
Release the key after four flashes of the display.
The display now shows the maximum value.
