LOCAL Key
• This key causes the drive to follow the LOCAL (2nd source) settings for frequency command and
operation* The factory settings of both source of Local frequency and Local operation are the Digital
Keypad
• Pressing the LOCAL key with the drive stopped will switch the operation and frequency to the LOCAL
source (P301 and P401) Pressing the LOCAL key with the drive running can be configured to keep
running or to stop upon transition See P358 for more information
• The selected mode, LOCAL or REMOTE, will be displayed on the GS4-KPD
• When P358=0 then LOCAL correlates to HAND mode The Digital Input Definition must not be set to
33 (LOC/REM Switch)
*Refer to P3.58 for more detail and other options on how the drive behaves when switching between
LOCAL and REMOTE. Refer to P3.00, P3.01, P4.00 and P4.01 for defining LOCAL and REMOTE sources of
operation and frequency.
REMOTE Key
• This key causes the drive to follow the REMOTE (1st source) settings for frequency command and
operation* The factory settings of both source of Remote frequency and Remote operation are the
Digital Keypad
• Pressing the REMOTE key with the drive stopped will switch the operation and frequency to the
REMOTE source Pressing the REMOTE key with the drive running can be configured to keep running
or to stop upon transition See P358 for more information
• The selected mode, LOCAL or REMOTE, will be displayed on the GS4-KPD
• When P358=0 then LOCAL correlates to HAND mode The Digital Input definition must not be set to
33 (LOC/REM Switch)
*Refer to P3.58 for more detail and other options on how the drive behaves when switching between
LOCAL and REMOTE. Refer to P3.00, P3.01, P4.00 and P4.01 for defining LOCAL and REMOTE sources of
operation and frequency.
