6.2 Starting the MotiFlex e100

If you have followed the instructions in the previous sections, you should now have connected all
the power sources, inputs and outputs, and the Ethernet cable or USB cable linking the PC to the
MotiFlex e100.
6.2.1 Preliminary checks
Before you apply power for the first time, it is very important to verify the following:
Disconnect the load from the motor until instructed to apply a load. If this cannot be done,
H
disconnect the motor wires at connector X1.
Verify that the AC line voltage (if connected) matches the specification of the MotiFlex e100.
H
Note: If the MotiFlex e100 is to be powered from a shared DC bus connection, ensure
that the busbars are securely fitted to the DC busbar pads under the top cover.
Inspect all power connections for accuracy, workmanship and tightness.
H
Verify that all wiring conforms to applicable codes.
H
Verify that the MotiFlex e100 and motor are properly earthed/grounded.
H
Check all signal wiring for accuracy.

6.2.2 Power on checks
If at any time the Status LED flashes red, the drive has detected a fault - see section 7.
1. Turn on the AC supply.
Note: If the MotiFlex e100 is to be powered from a shared DC bus connection, the
preliminary checks shown in section 6.2.1 must first be completed for the
MotiFlex e100 that will be supplying the DC bus voltage (the source drive). When
these checks have been completed AC power can be applied to the source drive.
2. Turn on the optional 24 VDC control circuit backup supply, if connected.
3. Within approximately 20-30 seconds, the test sequence should complete and the Status
LED should illuminate red. If the Status LED is not lit then re-check the power supply
connections. If the Status LED flashes red, this indicates that the MotiFlex e100 has detected
a fault - see section 7. Note that after downloading firmware, startup may take more than 1
minute.
4. If the motor wires were disconnected in section 6.2.1, turn off the AC supply and reconnect
the motor wires. Turn on the AC supply.
5. To allow the Commissioning Wizard to function, the drive enable signal will need to be
present on connector X3 to allow the MotiFlex e100 to be enabled (see section 5.3.1.). If you
do not wish to enable the MotiFlex e100 yet, the Commissioning Wizard will inform you when
this step is necessary.
