FPCSK and the FPCBA lines of Electronic bypass packages. The Electronic bypass is a complete integrated HVAC control system, which employs the latest Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) technology and incorporates a dedicated micro-processor based controller for HVAC applications.
√ Check the unit for physical damage which may have occurred during shipping. If any part of the package is missing or damaged. Notify the carrier and your Emerson Control Techniques representative immediately. √ Verify that all internal hardware (i.e. components, screws, etc.) is properly seated and fastened securely.
2.4 Mounting & Clearances Install the Electronic bypass package on a vertical surface and allow the following minimum clearances for normal heat dissipation. Notes: • Ambient operating temperature; 32°F to 104°F ( 0°C to 40°C) • Install the unit in a dry environment free from oil mist and dust •...
2.5 Wiring and Precautions 2.5.1 General 1. DO NOT connect or disconnect wiring, or perform signal checks while the power supply is turned ON. Connect the power supply wiring to the Electronic bypass input terminals L1, L2 and L3 on the main circuit disconnect device.
2.5.3 Output Wiring The Electronic bypass package is always supplied with a Class 20 motor O/L on its output. However, the unit may be supplied with several different output options. The following output options are available. • Single motor O/L (Terminals T1, T2, and T3) •...

Note: All contactors and relays supplied in the Electronic bypass package are suppressed with R/C snubbers. If adding additional inductive loads (i.e. magnetic contactors, magnetic relays, magnetic valves, solenoids, magnetic brakes, etc.) in or near the Electronic bypass package use an appropriate surge suppressor across the coils to limit the transients on the supply lines.
2.5.4 Control Circuit Wiring (FPCSK) 2.5.4.1 Analog Output A 0-10 Vdc analog output signal is available by connecting to Commander HSK control terminals B1 (+) and T1 (-). The default is output frequency. 2.5.4.2 Digital Input The Electronic bypass combines digital inputs from the Commander HSK inverter and the Electronic bypass control board to allow maximum flexibility.
Commander HSK inverter. These connections are made at the factory and are for reference only. Do not change this wiring as it will cause the Electronic bypass to operate improperly or not at all. Electronic bypass control Wire FPCSK Board number J11 – 1 Motor overload relay J11 –...

2.5.5.3 Digital / Relay Outputs There are four (4) Form A relay outputs rated 125 Vac, 0.5 A on the Electronic bypass control board. Terminal No. Description TB1-1 & TB1-2 Power On TB1-3 & TB1-4 Fault TB1-5 & TB1-6 Damper actuator TB1-7 &...
2.5.6 Grounding Never ground the Electronic bypass package in common with welding machines, motors, or other high current electrical equipment. Run all ground wires in a separate conduit. When using several Electronic bypass packages side by side, ground as shown below.
2.7.1 Check #1: Rotation on VFD power Place the VFD package in HAND (local) control by pressing the VFD and HAND push buttons of the Electronic bypass keypad. The VFD, HAND, input and output contactor LEDs will be illuminated. The VFD must be started and stopped by the start/stop buttons on the VFD keypad.
Chapter 3 – Overview of the Electronic bypass All start/stop, safety, and Fire Alarm inputs are routed to the Electronic bypass control board via customer terminal connections. The VFD analog output is directly connected to the VFD control terminals. The Electronic bypass control card is factory set to accept a sinking type (dry contact closure) type input.

3.3 Using the Electronic Bypass Configuration Switches The bypass configuration switches are a group of four switches that are used to tailor the Automatic Bypass Fire Alarm Damper Control Fireman’s Override Switch 1: Enables or disables the automatic bypass function. With switch 1 in the ON position, and the electronic bypass package operating in VFD mode, a VFD fault will cause both the operation and run modes to be cancelled (stopping the motor) and the VFD Fault LED to illuminate in the...
bypass controller must see the customer “damper feedback” contact closed (TB3-3) within that time to prevent the bypass controller from “faulting” and preventing motor operation. The Bypass Keypad will annunciate the faulted condition by flashing one or more of the button status LEDs that happened to be on at the time of the fault.
selections and force the Electronic bypass into bypass mode from an external contact. Once this signal is removed, the Electronic bypass will not return to its’ previous mode of operation without keypad interaction. Remote VFD input (TB3-2): works just like the remote bypass input, by forcing the Electronic bypass into VFD mode.
To exit the TEST mode, press the OFF/RESET button on the ELECTRONIC BYPASS keypad. The VFD input contactor will open and the TEST and input contactor LEDs will go out. 3.7.2 VFD mode In VFD mode both the input and output contactors are energized. A start mode pushbutton must be pressed before the VFD can operate.
3.7.5 AUTO mode In the VFD AUTO (automatic mode), a building automation system or other external device is required to supply start/stop and speed reference information to the Electronic bypass package. During AUTO mode operation, the Electronic bypass keypad remains enabled for stopping, operation mode, and bypass selection functions.

To exit the BYPASS mode, Press the OFF/RESET button on the Electronic bypass keypad. 3.8.2 AUTOMATIC Bypass on VFD Fault In the Automatic bypass on VFD fault mode of operation, when the Electronic bypass control board senses a VFD fault it will automatically switch the motor to BYPASS operation.
Electronic bypass package. These settings are pre-programmed from the factory, DO NOT change any of these values unless directed to by Emerson Control Techniques technical support. Note these parameters must be programmed in the sequence shown.
Chapter 5 - Operation Precautions: 1. Motor rotation MUST be checked in both VFD and Bypass modes. Failure to confirm rotation may cause severe damage to the Electronic bypass, motor or its driven equipment. 2. Only turn ON the input power supply after closing the front door. 3.
5.1 Keypad Operation The Electronic bypass package utilizes two keypads in its operation. The VFD Keypad controls the speed in the HAND mode using the up and down arrow keys. In AUTO mode the user supplied 4–20 mA speed reference is connected to speed reference input (Affinity terminals 7–11, HSK terminals T2–T1).
