Set-Up Guide
1.2 General Information
It is mandatory that national, state and local safety and wiring standards be followed during installation. These standards take precedence over any information presented in this section.
CAUTION!
To avoid the hazard of electrical shock or burn, the following instructions must be adhered to. Failure to follow these instructions may also cause damage to your unit and void existing warranties.
- Do not energize the unit until all connections have been properly made.
- Equipment must be properly grounded before applying power. Units energized by cord and plug must be connected to an approved and properly grounded receptacle.
- All units must be energized by an isolated line.
- The unit must always be closed and secured prior to energizing the unit.
- Ensure the power switch is in the 'off' position prior to connecting the power cord.
Though it is not mandatory, the following instructions are highly recommended for the protected operation of your unit.
- Use oversized feeder lines to reduce electrical noise and voltage drop.
Mounting the Controller
- Loosen the two long mounting screws at the bottom of the controller so the mounting plate can be separated from the controller. See Fig. 1-16.
- Fig. 1-17 illustrates the bolt pattern for hanging the mounting plate on a wall. Note the hole size dimensions so the correct size bolts are chosen. Size ¼' or M6 bolts (4) should fit the mounting plate holes and support the controller.
- Once the mounting plate is installed in its location the controller can be hung on the bracket utilizing the four studs protruding from the back of the controller. Once in place, the controller can be secured at the bottom using the two long screws removed in Step 1.
Making Connections to the Controller
- Connect the cable to the tool.
- Connect the other end of the cable to the controller. The connector at the controller is an Air-LB connector and utilizes a push-pull style connector. Before attempting to attach the cable verify that the collar on the controller connector is pushed towards the controller. If the collar is pulled away from the controller the cable will not connect to the controller. Insert the cable connector and pull the collar away from the controller (towards the cable) to lock the cable in place.
- Insert the power cord into the controller and into a 115 or 230 VAC power source.
- Using the ON/OFF power switch at the front of the controller power the controller ON.
- Refer to the Programming Manual, PL12-1001EN, for all other connections.
