7.1 Setting the PWM input signal
To enable the external control mode (PWM profile A), you need a
signal cable connected to an external system. The cable
connection has three conductors: the signal input, the signal
output and the signal reference.
The cable is not supplied with the pump but can be ordered as an
accessory.
Fig. 21 Mini superseal plug
Set the signal connection
1. Make sure that the pump is turned off.
2. Locate the PWM signal connection on the pump.
The three pins inside the signal connection are not energised.
Connect the signal cable with the mini superseal plug.
3. Switch on the power supply.
4. The pump automatically detects if a valid PWM signal is
available after which it enables the control mode on the pump.
See fig. 22.
