4.3.3 TEMPORARY CONNECTIONS
The cross section of the cable connecting the drive to power line and to motor can be lower
than the one recommended for drive size if drive peak current will not be supplied and the
connection is made only for setting and checking purposes, and the motor is used at low
speed and reduced torque.
Even if a soft-start circuit is always present and active on each drive, it is recommended to
protect the power input line with fuses or a circuit breaker; anyway, the current absorbed by
the drive during the soft-start is limited by a resistor.
NOTE: Remember to wait at least 60 s between two power switches in order to allow the
internal soft-start resistor to properly dissipate the accumulated energy.
4.4 CONFIGURATION FOR INSTALLATION IN ELECTRICAL CABINET
Additional settings for installation in the electrical cabinet concern the torque remote enable
setting in order to allow the CNC to control torque supply, when requested, giving the DRIVE
ENABLE hardware signal.
Remember to eliminate the settings used on test bench that eventually limit performances.
