2. Verify that the incoming power connections are properly connected 
and tight.  Also verify that the power source is properly sized and 
protected for your particular drive.
3. Verify that the motor power connections are properly connected and 
tight.  Motor Phasing should be checked, Motor Phase A should be 
connected to Drive output phase A, likewise Phase B and C should be 
properly terminated to their respective terminals.  This phasing will be 
double checked later in this procedure.
4. Verify that the encoder feedback device is properly connected.  The 
encoder should be a quadrature device with a 12V input power 
requirement and either 12V or 5V differential outputs.  Jumpers J3 and
J4 on the Main Control Board (Figure 2.7) must be set  for the desired 
output.  Phasing of the encoder should be checked in that A 
and /A, B and /B are properly terminated.  This phasing will be 
double checked later in this  procedure.
5. If your Drive is equipped with a Standard Adapter Board verify that 
the Pulse Input Voltage Selection jumper is set correctly for your 
application.  Jumper J13 should be set across pins 1 and 2 for +5V DC 
input, and across pins 2 and 3 for +12V DC input voltage.
6. If your Drive is equipped with a PLC Comm Adapter Board, verify 
that the standard I/O inputs on the PLC Comm Board are configured 
for the proper input voltage  level.  The Standard I/O can be configured
for operation at 24V DC or 120V AC.  To select the proper voltage set 
the jumpers on J5, J6, J7 and J8 across pin 1 and 2 if the input voltage 
level is 120V AC, and across pins 2 and 3 if the input voltage level is 
24V DC.
Power On After all pre–power checks have been completed, the incoming power may
be applied.  The application of power for each system can be different.
Make sure you know the safety controls associated with the system.  Power
should only be applied if you have a thorough understanding of the 1336
FORCE Drive and the associated system design.
• Measure the incoming line voltage between L1 and L2, L2 and L3, and
L1 and L3.  Use the DMM on AC Volts, highest range (1000 VAC).  
The input voltage should equal the drive rated input voltage present on 
the drive’s nameplate within +/–10%.  If the voltage is out of tolerance,
verify the drive rating is correct for the application, if it is, adjust the 
incoming line voltage to within +/–10%.
