The procedure described in section 7 enables

11.2 Connecting the Switches
A wiring diagram is shown in the illustration
opposite.
Two suitable 2 position NO (Normally Open)
switches should be installed: One between
terminals 24V and DI1 (Run / Stop) and the
other between terminals 24V and DI2
(Forward / Reverse).
Note that the Forward/Reverse switch only
selects the direction of rotation - it will not start
or stop the motor. The direction can be set
either before the motor is started or whilst it is
running.
If the application only requires the motor to turn
in one direction, the Forward/Reverse switch
can be omitted.
