Three-Wire Interface Operation - Hitachi X200 Series Instruction Manual

Three-wire Interface Operation

The 3-wire interface is an industry standard motor control interface. This function uses
two inputs for momentary contact start/stop control, and a third for selecting forward or
reverse direction. To implement the 3-wire interface, assign 20 [STA] (Start), 21 [STP]
(Stop), and 22 [F/R] (Forward/Reverse) to three of the intelligent input terminals. Use a
momentary contact for Start and Stop. Use a selector switch, such as SPST for the
Forward/Reverse input. Be sure to set the operation command selection A002=01 for
input terminal control of motor.
If you have a motor control interface that needs logic-level control (rather than
momentary pulse control), use the [FW] and [RV] inputs instead.

20 STA Start Motor
21 STP Stop Motor
22 F/R Forward/Reverse
Valid for inputs: C001~C005
Required settings A002 = 01
Notes:
The STP logic is inverted. Normally the switch
will be closed, so you open the switch to stop. In
this way, a broken wire causes the motor to stop
automatically (safe design).
When you configure the inverter for 3-wire
interface control, the dedicated [FW] terminal is
automatically disabled. The [RV] intelligent
terminal assignment is also disabled.
The diagram below shows the use of 3-wire control. STA (Start Motor) is an edge-sensitive
input; an OFF-to-ON transition gives the Start command. The control of direction is level-
sensitive, and the direction may be changed at any time. STP (Stop Motor) is also a level-
sensitive input.
