| Bypass Function |
| |
| 01/16/2003 | C21 unit is connected and runs in Hand and Auto fine. But, the input circuit breaker is tripping while attempting to run in Bypass mode. Why? | |
| 10/27/2005 | The E7B bypass unit with the serial communications, option J or option L control comes set up for the start/stop
as well as the speed reference to be controlled through serial communication.
Is it possible to maintain start/stop control through serial communication
while using an analog signal for speed reference? | |
| 07/13/2004 | The E7 drive inside the bypass enclosure unit doesn’t have the Hand, Off or Auto buttons that are shown in the E7 manual. How can the drive be run locally? | |
| 10/27/2005 | What is the purpose of the TEST switch on the front panel of an E7B bypass unit? | |
| 07/13/2004 | On a GPD 506/P5 Bypass unit, what is the Normal/Test switch used for and when would it be needed in an operation? | |
| 11/29/2005 | The P5/506 bypass panel "Fault" light is ON, but no fault code is shown on the keypad display. What's wrong? | |
| 07/13/2004 | How can the P5/GPD506 parameter settings be adjusted or changed while the bypass drive is running in bypass mode? | |
| 07/15/2004 | C21 unit is connected and runs in Hand and Auto fine. But, the input circuit breaker is tripping while attempting to run in Bypass mode. Why? | |
| 12/03/2012 | I attempted to run the unit with the digital operator connected directly to the drive. I removed it and connected it back to the bypass board, now the Hand and Auto command are non-responsive. How can I fix this | |
| 12/29/2012 | How do I create a Device ID in bacnet? | |
| Circuit Protection |
| |
| 07/13/2004 | The GPD/515G5 instruction manual (TOE-S616-10.13) (pages 21-22) specifies that input fuses should be used on the installation of these drives.
--Is fusing required or is a circuit breaker sufficient protection for the inverter.
--If fusing is not required, what characteristics of MCCB should used be to protect the drive adequately. | |
