Control Terminal Designations As shown in Figure 3.10, the SMC-Flex controller contains 24 control
terminals on the front of the controller.
Figure 3.10 SMC-Flex Controller Control Terminals
➀
RC Snubbers are required on loads connected to auxiliary.
➁ Do not connect any additional loads to these terminals. These “parasitic” loads may cause problems
with operation, which may result in false starting and stopping.
➂ External Bypass operates an external contactor and overload relay once the motor reaches full
speed. The SMC-FLEX overload functionality, diagnostics and metering are disabled when the
external bypass is activated. Proper sizing of the contactor and overload is required.
➃ Control power on units rated 625…1250 A is pre-wired internally, from terminal block CP1.
