E-Clipse Bypass Configurations for ACH550 Drives
Bypass Override input contact is closed, the system is forced to bypass and does
not respond to the Drive and Bypass keys. The Motor Run LED flashes green when
the system is in override. While in Bypass Override the system responds to bypass
overloads and programmed faults. To satisfy the local AHJ (Authority Having
Jurisdiction),The system can be custom programmed to acknowledge or disregard
certain faults, safeties and enables. The unit is default programmed to ignore all
external safeties and run enables. See Group 17 for programmability of the digital
input and fault functions. Normally when the Bypass Override input contact is
switched from closed to open, the system switches to the Drive mode and can be
controlled using the Drive and Bypass keys. The exception to this is when the
Smoke Control (Override 1) input contact is closed, in which case the system
remains in Smoke Control mode.
Hand Mode
When the system is in the Bypass mode, the operator can manually start the motor
by pressing the Hand key on the bypass control panel. The motor will run and Hand
is indicated on the bypass control display. In order to run the motor, the Safety
Interlock(s) and Run Enable contacts must be closed (green Enabled LED) and any
bypass fault must be reset.
Auto Mode
In the Auto mode the bypass start/stop command comes from the Start/Stop input
terminal on the bypass control board (or serial communication). The Auto mode is
selected by pressing the Auto key on the bypass control panel. Auto is indicated on
the bypass control display when the bypass is in the Auto mode. If the system is in
the Bypass mode, the motor will run across the line if the Auto mode is selected, the
Start/Stop, Safety Interlock(s) and Run Enable contacts are closed and any bypass
fault is reset.

Off Mode

If the motor is running in the Bypass mode, the operator can manually stop the motor
by pressing the Off/Reset key on the bypass control panel. The Hand or Auto
indication on the bypass control display will change to Off. The motor can be
restarted by pressing the Hand key or the bypass can be returned to the Auto mode
by pressing the Auto key. If the system is in the Drive mode, pressing the Off/Reset
key will take the bypass out of the Auto mode, but will not affect motor operation
from the drive. If the system is switched to the Bypass mode, a motor that is running
will stop.

Bypass/Drive Mode Transfers

If the drive is in the Auto mode and the motor is running in the Drive mode, the motor
will transfer to bypass operation and continue running if the system is switched to the
Bypass mode and the bypass is in the Auto mode with the Start/Stop Input contact
closed. If the motor is running in the Bypass mode, the motor will transfer to drive
operation and continue running if the system is switched to the Drive mode and the
drive is in the Auto mode with the Start/Stop Input contact closed.

Starting the Motor on Application of Power

If the Safety Interlock(s) and Run Enable Input contacts are closed (Start command
must also be present in Auto) and the system is in the Bypass mode and in either the
