CON D – Serial Communications
connector
The serial communications connector is a 9-way
D-type. Full duplex RS485 connections require two
screened twisted-pair wiring.

CON E – Back-up Supply connector
For applications that require serial communications
or information on rotor shaft position to be
maintained when AC power is lost from the Drive,
an external power supply can be connected to
connector E which is on the underside of the Drive
on sizes 1 and 2, and at the right hand side of the
control board in size 3. This is used to maintain the
supplies to the control circuits in the Drive.
When AC power is lost, the display on the Drive
shows the decimal point moving from left to right.
When AC power returns, the Drive goes through the
normal calibration routine.
