If set to 1 (Hi), the input will be active when a switch connected to pin 7 is open. Pump Power-up – (Nchk/Chk) This sets whether or not the pump is checked at power-up. There are two programmable options – 0 and 1. SK79647-02...
Option 3 is not applicable to Pump operation. Option 4 is not applicable to Pump operation. If set to 5 (Motor Current), then the motor current in units of ‘A’ will be displayed, from 0 to the maximum rated current of the controller. SK79647-02...
In a non-CANbus system, the controller(s) should have this parameter set to 0. This is particularly important if the BDI is used. As detailed above, the BDI will not work when set up as a slave controller. To set the CAN node number in a controller, it must be disconnected from the CANbus. SK79647-02...
For example, if there are four controllers connected and they have node numbers of 0, 1, 2 and 3, then this parameter should be set to 3. SK79647-02...

Motor Speed Maximum, set to 1.5 times Motor Speed Base value or 10% higher than the maximum motor rpm required, whichever is greater. In this example, the motor manufacturer’s data sheet indicated a maximum motor frequency of 114Hz. Therefore Motor Speed Maximum should be set to 125Hz (114+10%). SK79647-02...
Slip Minimum is set to 70% of the Drive Slip Base value. The relationship between current and slip is not linear but this set-up is usually a good starting point for a safe first test. Therefore, in this example the settings would be as follows. Drive Slip Minimum: 1.57Hz Drive Slip Boost: 2.24Hz Drive Slip Base: 2.24Hz Drive Slip Maximum: 2.24Hz SK79647-02...
Therefore, in this example the settings would be as follows. Braking Voltage Minimum: 1.7Vrms Braking Voltage Boost: 15Vrm Braking Voltage Base: 30Vrms Braking Voltage Maximum: 30Vrms By combining the braking values calculated so far, the following graph can be plotted. SK79647-02...
10Arms below the maximum allowed for the motor or the controller. Now you can increase the value of 4.14 Drive Slip Minimum. Again, ensure the measured motor current does not exceed the maximum rated value for the motor or controller. If the lift starts to lurch, the slip is too high and can be reduced. SK79647-02...
