7 - Wiring Procedure Adjustable frequency ADL500 drives are electrical apparatus for use in for civil lifting installations. Parts of the Drives are energized during operation. The electrical installation and the opening of the device should therefore only be carried out by qualified personnel. Improper installation of motors or Drives may therefore cause the failure Warning! of the device as well as serious injury to persons or material damage.

The purpose of the brake fault alarm is to check whether the states of the two feedback signals from the brake are consistent and, in case of doubt, to include a function whereby the ADL500 drive stops the system. The procedure for including the alarm is described below.
The brake fault alarm function envisages signals that are normally asserted. If the wiring is functionally inverted, simply negate the corresponding digital inputs in the ADL500 configuration. To configure the brake fault alarm function, proceed as follows: 1. In the SAFETY menu , change the setting of parameter 11252 Brake Fbk A3 Sel (default Null) and select the digi- tal input corresponding to the second brake feedback signal If Brake Fbk A3 Sel is set to a value other than Null, the brake fault alarm function is automatically enabled.
