Do not touch the Deadband header unless you understand its purpose.
‡1 Minimum voltage subject to alteration of the undervoltage setting.
‡2 Controllers are factory-set to operate on 24v as this is the most common usage. See page 6.
‡3 Brake output is 'trip' protected: wiring or solenoid faults will switch off the controller.
Additional Information
Although this manual is quite comprehensive, there is a limit to what it is sensible to print on paper. If you
have queries, then you are best advised to consult our www site where there is a large amount of additional
information including many instructions on some of the more arcane applications of this controller
