Test Mode - Magnetek Impulse G+ series 4 Instruction Manual

Test Mode

Test Mode is a troubleshooting aid that is intended for troubleshooting Flux Vector Control Method
problems in the field. The feature cannot be left on indefinitely as it will generate a fault after being
on for a total accumulated time of 10 minutes. At this time, the fault must be reset or power must be
cycled.
When enabled, the Control Method in A01-02 is temporarily overridden to V/f. All other functions for
the new control method are not restricted. Certain programming may need to be done to clear up
any OPE conditions that may occur as a result of the change in control method during this mode. It is
up to the user to determine if a special function may cause an unsafe condition during testing. Since
this feature will be used mainly for No-Load Brake type hoists, many of the inherent safety checks
will become disabled. It may be desirable to disable functions such as Ultra-Lift, but desirable to
leave Limit Switch functions enabled. The user will need to determine what functions are being used.
If unsure, it is best to ensure that the function is disabled (either by programming or MFDI in OFF
state) before running the drive/motor in this mode.
