DFS Software Modification For
Dynamic Braking or Output Contactor
Operation
25 October, 1994
Functional Description
A new function for Contactor Aux has been added to the digital input choices. When configured as described
in the example, 24VDC must be present at this input for the drive to run. Parameter #62, Contactor Delay, is a
number of 25ms intervals that will occur between the DFS controller acceptance of a run command and the
firing of the transistors. If the Contactor Aux input signal is low, the DFS starts the timer and closes the
Contactor Output. If the Contactor Aux input does not switch high before the timer runs out, the drive will
return to the stop condition. If the Contactor Aux input does switch high, the drive will start running when the
timer runs out.
Example Setup for Dynamic Braking

3
Set Digital Input #7 mode to Contactor Aux, polarity to Active Low.
Set Digital Output #4 mode to Contactor, polarity to Normally Closed.
Set Contactor Delay to 20 (20 x 25ms = 500ms = 1/2 second).
Run command causes the Contactor Output to close, the Contactor Relay opens, the feedback contacts close
and the drive starts to run.
Example Setup for Output Contactor

3
Set Digital Input #7 mode to Contactor Aux, polarity to Active Low.
Set Digital Output #4 mode to Contactor, polarity to Normally Closed.
Set Contactor Delay to 10 (10 x 25ms = 250ms = 1/4 second).
Run command causes the Contactor Output to close, the Contactor Relay closes, the feedback contacts close
and the drive starts to run.
The difference in the operation of the two types of contactors is that the Dynamic Braking Contactor is
normally closed whereas the Output Contactor is normally open. In both contactors, the auxilliary contacts are
normally open.
Terms Used

Contactor Aux - The digital input on the DFS board which is connected to the feedback contacts on the
contactor relay.
2
Contactor Output - The digital output on the DFS board which activates the solenoid on the contactor
relay.

1.0 INSTALLATION
The DFS-1 printed circuit board mounts on
any POWERTEC Brushless DC motor control
except the Model 500. The Model 1000 is used here
for illustration purposes only.
There are two flat ribbon cables which must be
connected from the DFS-1 to the other parts of the
motor control: one goes to the Base Driver Board
(part #141-105), and the other cable goes to the
Capacitor Board (part #141-106). See figure 2 for
the physical layout of the control and the location of
these boards. If the DFS-1 board is being installed
in the field, the cables should come with the new
board, since the connectors on the DFS-1 end are
different from the connectors on the Speed and
Current controller ends of the previous cables. Make
sure that you have these new cables before proceed-
ing to install the board. If you do not have them, call
POWERTEC's service department before proceed-
ing.
The DFS-1 board may be used as either a non-
regenerative control or as a regenerative control.
This selection is made by one of its parameter
settings. The DFS-1 may be installed on a Model
1000 non-regenerative brushless DC control, but if
the unit is to be used for a regenerative application,
a bus loader of the appropriate voltage and resistors
of sufficient wattage must be added before the drive
may be used regeneratively. If a bus loader is not
installed before regenerative operation occurs, it is
likely that the control will trip out repeatedly. A
Model 1000AR will already have a bus loader and
resistors attached.
1.1 MOUNTING -- READ THIS ENTIRE
SECTION BEFORE STARTING!
The DFS-1 printed circuit board mounts on
the Model 1000 or Model 1000AR motor control in
place of both the Current Controller board (part
#141-108) and the Speed Controller board (part
#141-107 on the non-regenerative model 1000, part
# 147-101 on the regenerative model 1000AR).
These boards are mounted side by side on all
standard motor controls. TB1 is located on the
Current Controller (left hand board) and TB2 is on
the Speed Controller (right hand board). The first
eight connections which normally come into TB1
(the motor cable leads) will connect to the same
places on the DFS-1. The connections going into
TB2 (mainly operators and speed pot) on the
standard motor control will go to different connec-
tions on the DFS-1.
Figure 1: The DFS-1 replaces two boards.
If the board is being installed to replace the
boards on a standard control, unplug the strips on
TB1 and TB2, but do not disconnect any wires from
them yet. Unplug the 14-pin connector on P2 (at the
Base Driver Board) and the 10-pin connector on P3
(at the Capacitor Board). Remove these cables and
the Speed and Current controller boards from the
chassis and set them aside. Remove the studs at the
top right of where the Current Controller board was,
and at the top left of where the Speed Controller was
located ( the center studs - see figure 1).

INTRODUCTION
s the computer revolution takes greater
control of industrial processes, there is
a growing need for more intimate control of
Programmable analog inputs and analog outputs
allow many possibilities for control through external
voltages, currents, and frequencies. They may also be
used to monitor drive operation. Digital inputs and
outputs (also programmable) give control and
monitoring flexibility as well as coordination
functions.
A
the process parameters. It is becoming ever more
necessary to control the important characteristics of
motors directly from computers and microprocessor-
based controllers. Such control cannot wait for
operator intervention when changes occur in milli-
seconds and tolerances are measured in thousandths.
Provision is made for plug-in options which add
input and output options and accomplish special
functions. Optional software packages may be
ordered for specific application needs.
All of the operational characteristics of a motor
are controllable by manipulating its speed, torque,
and power. POWERTEC digitally implemented,
speed, torque, and power control - the DFS-1.
The Brushless DC motor and its control are
digitally based, and are a natural choice for a
computer controlled environment. Now computers
and PLC's talk to the drive itself when the field-
installable DFS-1 control board replaces the Speed
and Current boards on the standard POWERTEC
Brushless DC drive.
One of the first things you will notice about the
DFS-1 is that there are no adjustment potentiometers
and no setup switches. All characteristics of the drive
are controlled by software parameters which may be
entered by the optional KDU-1 keypad or host
computer. The KDU-1 keypad can be mounted on the
DFS-1 board, in a remote location (usually the
enclosure door), or in a handheld unit. A default set
of parameters which represent the most common
operating conditions will facilitate immediate
operation and testing after installation.
Capable of operating on a single drive or in
networks, the DFS-1 is programmable by an optional
keypad with its two line, 16-character display. A
single computer port may be used to monitor and
control up to 32 units in an RS-485 communications
link.

S UMMARY OF WARRANTY AND DIS CLAIMER
POWERTEC Industrial Corporation warrants the DFS-1 to be free from defects in materials and work-
manship for a period of one year from the date of shipment from the factory, or if purchased from an autho-
rized POWERTEC distributor or Original Equipment Manufacturer, not more than 18 months from the date
of shipment from the factory. Upon written notification to the factory of a possible defect in materials or
workmanship, POWERTEC will, at its sole option, repair or replace, at the factory, such defective parts as it
deems necessary to restore the unit to its original specifications.
There is no other warranty, express or implied, including fitness of purpose for the application intended.
This warranty does not cover accidental or intentional damage; physical or electrical misuse or abuse; defec-
tive or incorrect installation; effects on other equipment or caused by other equipment; attempted use outside
of specified ranges; or any other situation outside of the control of POWERTEC Industrial Corporation.
The user is responsible for the application of the DFS-1 product and the programming thereof.
This warranty does not encompass any other claims, including, but not limited to, special, incidental, or
consequential damages.
This manual has been assembled as a guide to the use of a POWERTEC product. It represents the best
efforts to compile and present the information herein. Such errors as may appear in no way affect the above
stated warranty. If mistakes of fact are found or suspected in this manual, please notify the factory or your
distributor at once.
WARNING!
The DFS-1 contains static sensitive parts which may be damaged by careless handling of the printed
circuit board. You can avoid this type of damage by always touching the frame of the drive before you touch
the printed circuit board or any of its connections.
The DFS-1 is supplied for field installation in a protective bag. Bring the bag into contact with the
motor controller frame before removing the board from the bag.

1.0 CONNECTIONS
in the motor junction box to the ground terminal on
the drive. A wire must then be run from the ground
terminal on the drive (next to the motor terminals) to
an earth ground at or near the power source. The
Model 1000 drive does not have the common
circuitry connected to earth ground (chassis). In
most cases this works best, but in some cases it does
not. POWERTEC recommends connecting a short
jumper wire from the drive common at any one of the
several places available on the terminal strips to a
nearby point on the drive chassis or backpanel that
will establish this ground. This is more important in
applications where multiple drives are connected
together or serial communications from a host are
used. All other POWERTEC drives have the
common grounded by mounting screws on the
regulator boards.
POWER CONNECTIONS:
POWERTEC Brushless DC motor controllers
are supplied with nominal input voltages of 230, 380,
and 460VAC. Three phase input power is required.
The input is not phase sensitive. Connect the appro-
priate power supply to the input fuses at L1, L2, and
L3 (check nameplate for proper input voltage and
capacity).
Connect the output terminals T1, T2, and T3 to
the respective terminals on the Brushless DC motor.
It is very important that the T1 terminal on the motor
connects to T1 on the drive, T2 of the motor connects
to T2 of the drive, and T3 of the motor connects to
T3 of the drive. An earth ground wire of the same
gauge as the motor power leads or one gauge smaller
(no smaller than #14 AWG) must be run from a bolt

However, these standard connections will not be in
the same physical positions as they are in the
standard control, and the default setting will not
take care of any optional modes of operation.
There are three plug-in terminal strips on the
bottom of the DFS-1 PC board labelled in sections
from left to right: TB1, TB2, and TB3. Though the
three sections look like two rows of strips, there is a
small separator between each of the sections. Each
of the sections has an upper row (A) and a lower row
(B). The B row is closest to the PC board. The
terminals are numbered consecutively from left to
right on each level.
MOTOR ENCODER CABLE:
The motor encoder cable is connected to plug-in
terminal strip TB1:A on the DFS-1 PC board. A
shielded cable must be used for the motor encoder
cable. The recommended cable is a 9-conductor
shielded cable (Belden Cable part # 9539 or equiva-
lent). The shield should be connected at the drive end
to the shield terminal (TB1:A1) and to terminal 10 (if
there is one) at the motor terminal strip and if not (as
on motors built prior to April 1992), the shield
should be cut off at the motor end and taped up.
The DFS-1 PC Board contains all of the func-
tions necessary to operate the Brushless DC motor
control according to the inputs connected to its
terminals and the programmed information in
memory. The DFS-1 board takes care of all speed,
torque, and control functions. It takes speed informa-
ANALOG INPUTS:
There are two analog input ports to the DFS-1 on
TB1:B. When used as a voltage input, both of the
tion from the encoder, environmental information and analog inputs are a differential type of input with a
current (load) information from the power output
circuits of the drive, and compares all that informa-
tion to the input conditions and programmed param-
eters. It processes this information and turns the
power transistors on and off according to the needs of
the system.
The DFS-1 is delivered with an installed set of
default parameters which will allow it to operate with
a standard set of connections (as illustrated in Figure
3) of the types used with standard motor controls.
minimum input impedance of 200 Kohms. When
using one of the analog inputs for a voltage input, the
input common at terminal 1 on TB1:B should be used
for shields.
When using an analog input as a milliamp input,
the (-) side of the input (terminal 4 for Analog Input
#1 or terminal 6 for Analog Input #2) should be
connected to the common of the milliamp current
source. The milliamp source should be connected to
the (+) input (terminal 3 for Analog Input #1 or
terminal 5 for Analog Input #2).

The default speed reference input is Analog
Input #1, located on TB1:B. The default input is for
a 0 to +10VDC for zero to full speed of the motor.
Terminal 3 is the positive side of the input and
terminal 4 is the negative side. If the speed signal
being used is externally supplied, the differential
input will have a noise cancelling effect. Terminal 1
on TB1:B is a common for shields.
Reference sources of +10VDC and -10VDC are
supplied on the terminal strips at TB2:B2 and
TB2:B7, respectively. The default speed pot connec-
tions should be made as illustrated in figure 3. Notice
that the (-) side of the differential input (terminal 4)
is connected by a jumper to common (terminal 1),
because the DFS-1 reference source is being used. If
an external reference source is to be used, no jumper
is necessary.

tions)
5. Commanded speed
Analog Output #1 default is a -10 to +10VDC
signal representing motor speed. The outputs are on
TB1:B terminals 8 (+) and 10 (-). The opposite
polarity is available by a parameter change. See the
description for parameters #26 and #27.
The default for Analog Output #2, terminals 9
(+) and 10 (-), is -10 to +10VDC representing motor
load, 0% to 150% load. The opposite polarity is
available by changing a parameter.
The maximum output current for the analog
outputs is 20 milliamps.
FREQUENCY INPUT:
IN THE DEFAULT SETUP, ONLY ANALOG
INPUT #1 IS ACTIVE. WHILE THE OTHER
ANALOG INPUT HAS A DEFAULT SETUP, IT IS
NOT ACTIVE UNTIL THE USER CHANGES THE
SETUP TO MAKE IT ACTIVE.
The microprocessor will look ONLY to Analog
Input #1 for speed information until it is told to do
otherwise in the setup program.
The other analog input to the DFS-1 is at TB1:B
(lower level) terminals 5 (+) and 6 (-). Both of the
inputs may be programmed for one of six inputs as
shown in the table below.
There is only one frequency input on the DFS-1.
This input is used by the drive as the reference to
follow when the drive is in the SLAVE Mode of
operation. This input cannot be reassigned.
If the DFS-1 is in the MASTER mode, it will
ignore the frequency input.
The Frequency input is located at TB2:A
terminals 11(+) and 12 (-). This input is a differential
line receiver type intended to interface directly with
another DFS-1, a BCDMAX or CRM-1. There may
be multiple slaves connected to a single Master by

FREQUENCY OUTPUT:
DIGITAL INPUTS:
There are two outputs available to supply a
frequency for external use.
There are eight digital control inputs on TB2:A
as well as a +24VDC supply (TB2-A14) and com-
mon (TB2-A1). The eight inputs are optical isolator
input diodes with a common cathode connection at
TB2-A2. When the +24VDC, DFS-1 supply is used
to power the inputs, TB2:A2 must be jumpered to
the 24VDC common terminal on TB2:A1.
The functions of all inputs are programmable
except Emergency Stop (TB2-A3). All digital inputs
are electrically isolated from the DFS-1 power
supplies and common when an external power supply
is used to power the digital inputs (such as from a
PLC).
The first is located at TB2:B terminal 10 (+) and
11 (-). This is an output which is intended to provide
a reference frequency input for another DFS-1,
BCDMAX or CRM-1. This output is not compatible
with the DIGIMAX. It will provide a signal of +/-
1.5V minimum when connected to another DFS-1's
reference frequency input. This output on a unit
configured as a master, operates at 16 times the
frequency of the motor speed output reference. There
is a 120 ohm termination resistor built into the output
for transmission line termination.
When operating the DFS as a slave, the output
frequency is internally divided by 16 in addition to
being multiplied by the set ratio from the slave. As a
consequence, the frequency output from a DFS slave
cannot be used as the reference to another DFS slave
without some way of first multiplying this frequency
by 16. POWERTEC’s Cascade Ratio Multiplier
option board (4001-153430-XXX) can be used for
this purpose. Contact the factory for any frequency
following application which requires a reference
source other than a master DFS.
The default parameter setup is for a set of
standard motor controller input connections on
TB2:A terminal strip (see figure 3 on page 3).
Five of the inputs are set up for standard push-
button operation of the DFS-1. They are:
Run

DOWN (decrease)

speed output reference frequency and may be used

and can sink 30mA.
connections.
Each of these inputs will take a +24VDC input
(no more than 30VDC, not less than 18VDC). If an
external source of +24VDC is used, TB2-A2 on the
upper level must be connected to the negative side of
the external source.

The programmable inputs (TB2-A4 through
TB2-A10) may be programmed for jog, thread, or
other preset speeds. The inputs may also be used to
change torque levels, trim values, or ramp rates. Any
value which can be affected by a parameter can be
changed by a digital input.
COMMUNICATIONS:
The standard communications for the DFS-1 is
the EIA standard RS-485 communications format
over a single twisted pair cable into TB3:A terminals
1 and 2. Terminal 3 is for the shield. DO NOT
CONNECT TERMINAL 3 TO GROUND! Maxi-
mum allowable distance for twisted pair operation is
4000 meters (about 12,000 feet). Maximum nodes
without repeaters is 32. Maximum communications
rate is 38.4 kilobaud. The last unit on the comm line
should have a jumper at JP2 on the rightmost 2 pins.
All other units should have the jumper on the
leftmost two pins.
DIGITAL OUTPUTS:
Digital outputs are located on TB2:B. The four
outputs are normally open relay contacts. The
contacts are rated at 120VAC at 1 amp, resistive.
The default setup assigns the outputs as follows:
Digital Out #1
Digital Out #2
Digital Out #3
Digital Out #4
Run
No Fault
At Speed
Reverse
There is an RS-485 local programming input at
TB3:B for an optional keypad display unit.
These assignments may be changed by parameters.
All of the digital outputs are programmable and
may be configured as Normally Open or Normally
Closed. If more than one contact is required for a
certain function, an external relay may be used, or
more than one output may be programmed for the
same function.
RS485 Communications Connections:
Most host or converter devices (including the
RS232/485 converter made by POWERTEC) include
1.2 Kohm pull up resistors which insure rx-tx- is
pulled down to ground and rx/tx+ is pulled up to +5V
when the line is inactive (tristated). This ensures the
high impedance (floating) line does not change state
due to noise when the line is not being driven. No
matter how many units are connected in the network,
only one such set of pull ups should be installed.
NOTE: The Allen Bradley RS485 connections
on their coprocessor module for the Series 5 PLCs do
not provide these pull ups and must be installed or
noise will prevent proper communications.

DEFAULT S ETUP
The concept behind the DFS-1 calls for fully
programmable inputs and outputs. The ability to
change analog and digital inputs and outputs at will
lends a whole new meaning to the word "flexibility".
POWERTEC has established a set of "default"
parameters which will leave the setup of the DFS-1
in a way that will operate a motor in the basic
configuration (see figure 3 on page 3 and figure 4 on
page 4). There are two good reasons for doing this:
1. This default setup allows the user to connect
and operate a motor using common, everyday
connections without having to program the DFS-1
prior to its initial use.
2. The default setup provides a baseline to
which the user can return if it appears that something
is wrong with either the user's setup or the motor
control. There is a command which allows the "reset"
of the setup to the default configuration.

3 .0 DFS -1 P ARAMETERS
DFS-1 parameters are stored as DOUBLE
rate set up in parameter #2. The parameter selects
WORD values (32 bits), regardless of the actual size
of the data. This method is used to simplify the entire
system at a cost of a little extra data storage.
A double word consists of four BYTES (8 bits).
Each byte is a hexadecimal (base 16) value which
ranges from 00h (0 decimal) to FFh (255 decimal).
The largest number used in the DFS-1 parameters is
99,999 decimal, which, in hexadecimal notation is
0001 869Fh.
from among eight industry standard baud rates:
NUMBER BAUD RATE
0000 0000h 38.4 Kilobaud (38,400 baud)

. . . . 03 4,800 baud
. . . . 04 2,400 baud
. . . . 05 1,200 baud
In many cases, information other than numbers
is passed and stored in the parameters. The left byte
is the most significant and the last byte is the least
significant. The arrangement of the bytes for this
purpose is: VL4 VL3 VL2 VL1 where VL4 is the
Most Significant Bit (MSB) and VL1 is the Least
Significant Bit (LSB). Each parameter breaks down
the bytes accordingly.

as either 0000 0000h or 0000 0001h.
Default Value: 0000 0000h

Parameter #3 is first broken down into bytes, and
then VL1 is further broken down into bits.
When broken down into bits, 00h = 0000 0000b,
and 7Fh = 0111 1111b.

VL1 is broken down into eight bits, which are

The Unit ID number is installed in parameter #1.
This serves as an address on the external communica-
tions link. Two DFS-1 units cannot have the same
address while installed on the same communications
link.
There are 254 possible addresses if the default
value of 1 is not used as an address. Since the default
value is 1, there could be a problem if a new unit is
installed without changing the #1 parameter.

A zero in a bit position means that function may

NOTE: Parameter #3 ONLY determines
whether a FUNCTION is controlled locally or
remotely. This parameter has nothing to do with the
assignment of functions to terminals.
Any input function can be assigned to any input
terminal with the exception of the Emergency Stop
input. The Emergency stop function is hard-wired on
the DFS-1 board and cannot be changed by either
programming or parameters.
This parameter is a dual purpose command used
to set operational modes of the DFS-1:
VL2 VL1 sets the basic operation of the board.
There are three modes of basic operation used to
determine where the speed and/or torque commands
originate:
0000h MASTER mode (the board generates its
own speed/torque based on its parameters)
0001h SLAVE mode (the board follows an
external signal in direct proportion)
0002h INVERSE Slave mode (board follows

USE PARAMETER #4 TO IDENTIFY THE NET-
WORK COMMUNICATIONS LANGUAGE.
RANGE OF VALUES: 0000 0000h to 0000 0001h
0 to 1 (decimal)
In SLAVE mode the board follows a reference
frequency at TB2:A terminals 11(+) and 12(-), which
should be nominally 16 times the desired speed of the
motor. This signal is available from another DFS-1
board or from a BCDMAX board. It may also come
from another source which has a compatible line
driver output. (See the description for frequency
input elsewhere in this manual).
In INVERSE slave mode, the board follows the
external frequency in a proportion of 1/RATIO.
Instead of setting a direct ratio of 0.5000, a ratio of
2.0000 may be entered for half speed. This is useful
in cases requiring draw settings where the slave is
physically located before the master, which is set for
line speed.
Default Value: 0000 0000h
0 (decimal)
At the present time, the only communications
protocol available is Powertec’s Binary protocol.
This parameter has been included with the intent of
providing alternative protocols at some time in the
future.
VL4 VL3 contains information on modified
operational modes in which the torque in the motor is
limited below the current limit level (current limits
are always set by parameters 44 and 45). These
optional modes are defined as follows:

0002h Regenerative torque setpoint (regenera-

0003h Horsepower setpoint (the product of
motor current and motor speed is

USE PARAMETER #7 TO ESTABLISH THE
PULSE FEEDBACK RATE FROM THE MOTOR.

1 TO 20,000 (decimal)
Default Value: 0000 0078h
120 (decimal)
This parameter tells the DFS-1 the resolution of
the encoder in Pulses Per Revolution (PPR). This is
normally four times (4X) the rate of one channel of
the motor’s encoder.
Motors from the 42 frame through the 259T
frame have a 30 PPR, two channel, quadrature
internal encoder. For these motors using the internal
encoders the parameter should be set to 120 PPR.
Motors from 287TZ through 5010ATZ have an
internal 60 PPR, two channel, quadrature encoder.
The parameter for these motors using the internal
encoders should be set to 240 PPR.
External encoders may have almost any PPR
rate, and they must have two channels in quadrature
(the channels have the same pulse rate, but they are
90° out of phase with each other). The pulse rate will
be on the ENCODER nameplate.
0004h through 000Fh available for future use
When in the normal mode, the current in the
motor is not controlled below current limit.
If one of the modified operational modes is
chosen, the torque/horsepower setpoint is selectable
in one of three places:
1. Analog Input #1 (must be set up in
parameter #17)
2. Analog Input #2 (must be set up in
parameter #21)
3. The Set Application Mode (8F)
Command via communications
If one of these three setpoints is not present, the
setpoint defaults to the appropriate current limit
level.
Encoders with higher pulse rates are normally
used to obtain lower speeds and/or finer resolution of
motor shaft position. The most common external
encoder on POWERTEC motors is a 600 PPR, two
channel, quadrature optical encoder. For this encoder
the PPR in this parameter will be 2400.
For other encoders, multiply the pulse rate for
one channel (the usual number given on the name-
plate) by four and enter that number in this param-
eter.
This parameter may not be changed while
running. Attempting to change this parameter while
running will result in the effect being delayed until
the next time a setpoint command is given or until
the control is stopped. Changing this number will
drastically affect the calibration of the system.
(Also see Parameter 46)
6.
MAXIMUM MOTOR SPEED
USE PARAMETER #6 TO SET THE ABSOLUTE
MAXIMUM MOTOR SPEED.
RANGE OF VALUES: 0000 0001h to 0000 2710h
1 TO 10,000 (decimal)
Default Value: 0000 06D6h
1750 (decimal)
The maximum motor speed parameter is set
directly in Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) once the
Encoder Pulses Per Revolution (PPR) is set in
parameter # 7. If the incorrect PPR is set in param-
eter #7, the maximum motor speed will not be correct
and the motor may overspeed or not be able to go fast
enough.
The maximum motor speed is normally the
number given on the nameplate of the motor. This
number may be set higher than the motor nameplate
in some situations because the Brushless DC motor is
capable of some overspeed with light loads.
This parameter may be set to a value which is
lower than the motor’s base speed in cases where it is
not desired to use the full speed of the motor.

changed from a lower speed (including 0) to a higher
speed.
If the change in speed is from zero speed to full
speed, the full amount of time will be used. If the
change is from 25% speed to 75% speed, it will take
1/2 of the time set in this parameter to reach the new
speed. If the change is from 80% speed to 90%
speed, it will take 1/10th the time in this parameter.
The acceleration rate does not affect the JUMP
UP change in speed.
This is the acceleration rate in the SLAVE mode.
The rate may be set from 1 millisecond (.001 sec.) to
255 seconds. The default is 10 seconds (10,000
mSec).
This parameter sets a rate determined by the
amount of time it takes to change from a ratio of
0.0000 to a ratio of 1.0000. This rate is used when-
ever the ratio setpoint in the SLAVE or INVERSE
SLAVE mode is changed from a lower ratio (includ-
ing 0) to a higher ratio.
This rate does not affect the rate at which the
DFS-1 responds to changes in the reference fre-
quency, nor does it affect the ratio when the drive is
started as a slave if parameter #54 is set to Freeze.
This rate does not affect the Slave JUMP UP

This rate does not affect the slave JUMP time.
This is the deceleration rate in the MASTER
mode. The rate may be set from 1 millisecond (.001

The rate is calculated from maximum speed
(parameter 6) to zero speed. This rate is used
whenever the speed command in the MASTER mode
is changed from a higher speed to a lower speed
(including 0).
If the change in speed is from full speed to zero
speed, the full amount of time will be used. If the
change is from 75% speed to 25% speed, it will take
1/2 of the time set in this parameter to reach the new

tionship between motor speed and EGU is defined in
parameter #14, which sets the value of EGU’s at full
motor speed. This parameter is used to determine the
relationship between units of commanded speed and
RPM. The number entered in this parameter is
equivalent to the number in parameter #6. This
allows the user to enter speed commands in engineer-
ing units (such as Feet Per Minute, Yards Per Minute,
etc).
Speed commands entered by commands #82 and
#84 are entered in terms of this parameter. If the
value of this parameter is the same as the value of
parameter #6, then there is a 1:1 relationship between
the Engineering Units and the RPM (i.e., enter 1750
(06D6h) as a speed command for 1750 RPM).

This is the “gearing” ratio which corrects for the

and the encoder PPR (parameter #7). The output
frequency will be:

A 1750 RPM motor with a 120 PPR encoder
puts out a reference frequency of 56 Kilohertz. This
frequency varies with the commanded speed. When

the slave unit to match the line speed, motor speed,
or section (master). Many times, however, the
gearing between the slave motor and the surface of a
roll is not the same as the master, or the diameter of
the rolls vary from section to section, or motors of
different RPM’s may have to be tracked. The BASE
RATIO is a correction factor which allows the
SETPOINT to be adjusted.
The following are other examples of how the
Base Ratio parameter is used: if a standard 2500
RPM motor is to follow a standard 1750 RPM motor,
and both motors must attain their full speed at the
same time, and a setpoint of 1.0000 is desired, enter
1.4826 (2500/1750) into parameter #15 to make the
follower motor go 48.26% faster when the setpoint is
1.0000.
If the surface speed of a lead roll is 100 FPM at
1750 RPM (4-pole motor, 120 PPR encoder), and the
surface speed of the follower roll is 100FPM at 1550
RPM (4-pole motor, 120 PPR encoder), enter 0.8857
in parameter #15 to make the follower roll go
88.57% of the speed of the lead when the setpoint is
set to 1.0000.
If the lead motor is a 100 HP, 1750 RPM (8-pole,
240PPR), and the follower is a 5 HP, 3000 RPM (4-
pole, 120 PPR) motor, the reference output frequency
of the lead is 1750 x 240 *16 / 60 = 112 kHz. The
follower motor needs a frequency of 3000 x 120 *
16 / 60 = 96 kHz to operate at a 1.0000 setpoint.
Therefore the maximum 112 kHz must be reduced to
a maximum of 96 kHz by setting the base ratio to

If an undefined mode (...06h through ...1Fh) is
selected, Analog Input #1 will be inoperative.
The type of input is selected by parameter #18.
Each type of input has a lowest value and a highest
value.
The effective range of the input is set by param-

The External Horsepower Limit sets the maxi-

is the PRODUCT of speed and torque. When motor
speed is low, motor current is high, and when speed
is high, current is low. The drive increases speed until
sufficient load is developed and the product of load
and speed equals the setpoint. After that is achieved,
increasing load reduces speed, and decreasing load
increases speed.

The setting options are the same as parameter
#31. The default, by factory setting, is 0001 0003h,
which is an UP (increase) input which must have
+24VDC applied with respect to TB2:A to be active.
Any digital input may be assigned to any
function. The factory defaults are included for testing
purposes, to provide a baseline setup, and to be able
to run the DFS-1 the first time before programming.
VL3 contains the polarity flag, which is either
00h or 01h. A 01h setting means that +24VDC must
be applied to the input to make it active. A 00h
setting means the input is active with no voltage
applied.
A Digital Input may get its +24VDC signal from
any source with TB2:A1 common, and may be any
parameter, transducer, or switch at which the pro-
gram or communications wishes to look.

a run hold contact, but it may be used as a run output
contact for some other purpose if the run signal is
maintained, rather than a momentary push-button.

Default Value: 0000 0080h
128 (decimal)
The setting options are the same as parameter
#38. The default, by factory setting, is 0000 0001h,
which is the FAULT output. The internal FAULT
circuitry of the DFS-1 is off when the input power is
applied and energizes if there are NO FAULTS in the
drive (the contact closes because VL1 is set to 01h).
The gain of the DFS-1 is set by parameter #42.
The effect of the gain setting is to adjust an internal
value which determines how many pulses of accumu-
lated shaft position error it takes to reach current
limit. A 00h will allow about 90 pulses of position
error while a setting of FFh allows only about 9
pulses, which makes the motor shaft very “stiff”, in
that turning it only a few degrees causes current to
increase very rapidly. A middle setting is the default.

The setting options are the same as parameter
#38. The default, by factory setting, is 0001 0002h,
which is the AT SPEED output. The internal AT
SPEED circuitry of the DFS-1 is on when the actual
speed of the motor matches the commanded speed
(the contact closes because VL3 is set to 01). There
are no AT SPEED window parameters because the
microprocessor filters and averages the speed signal.
Default Value: 0000 0080h
128 (decimal)
The stability of the DFS-1 is set by parameter
#43. The effect of the setting is to adjust an internal
value which controls the integral and differential
gains of the drive. Smaller numbers mean faster
reaction to changes and for higher numbers reaction
is more damped. A middle setting is the default.

parameter CANNOT OVERRIDE that limit, but this
parameter may be set for an ultimate current limit on
drives which are built with more capability than the
motors they run. In this way, short term 300% current
ratings can be obtained.
Parameter #47 contains two pieces of informa-
tion.
VL4 VL3 sets the operational mode of the drive:
0000h sets the drive for non-regenerative
operation.
0001h sets the drive for regenerative
operation.
4 5 . DRIVE REGENERATIVE

Parameter #44 allows current limit settings of up
to 255% and must be set in terms of MOTOR
current. Other circuitry in the motor control will limit
the output DRIVE current to 150%. This parameter
CANNOT OVERRIDE that limit, but this parameter
may be set for an ultimate current limit on drives
which are built with more capability than the motors
they run. In this way, short term 300% current ratings
can be obtained.
Normally, in POWERTEC Brushless DC motor
controls, non-regenerative drives modulate the
bottom transistors only (this generates less heat and
makes them more efficient). Regenerative drives
modulate both top and bottom transistors for better
control. There are some cases where modulating both
top and bottom transistors in a non-regenerative drive
may be desirable. This can be done by setting VL2
VL1 to 0001h.

speed or ratio made by the up/down inputs is a
temporary change which lasts as long as the up or
down input is active (JUMP mode), or whether the
change will remain after the up/down input has been
released (MOP mode). The up/down functions may
be generated by software through setting of param-
eter #3.

When parameter #48 is set to 0000 0000h, the
DFS-1 is in the JUMP mode. In MASTER mode (set
by parameter #5), when the UP input function is
activated, the speed will increase by the amount set
in parameter #49. As long as the UP function is
active, the speed change will be held. When the UP
function is released the speed returns to the SET-
POINT. The same action applies to the DOWN
function, the speed change set by parameter #50. In
SLAVE mode, there is a temporary change in ratio
determined by parameter #51 for UP and #52 for
DOWN.

Parameter #50 is the amount, in Engineering
Units, by which the speed changes when the DOWN
function is active.
When parameter #48 is set to 0000 0001h, the
DFS-1 is in the MOP mode. The MOP mode acts like
a Motor Operated Potentiometer. When the UP
function is activated, the speed, in MASTER mode,
will change immediately by the amount in parameter
#49. If the function is released within 1/2 second, that
speed becomes the new SETPOINT. If the UP
function is held for more than 1/2 second, the speed
will begin to increase at the ACCEL rate (determined
by parameter #8), increasing until the UP function is
released. After the UP function is released, the speed
will remain at the latest, which becomes the new
SETPOINT. The same action applies in the MAS-
TER mode to the DOWN function (with parameter
#50 and the DECEL rate in parameter #9). In SLAVE
mode, the immediate increase is set by parameter
#51, the immediate decrease by parameter #52, and
the rates by parameters #10 and #11, respectively.

Parameter #53 is the length of time, in 10
milliseconds (1 millisecond =.01 second), that a
digital input must be active before it is considered
legitimate. It is used primarily to eliminate the
contact bounce (which may generate multiple
commands) from relays used on inputs, but it can
also prevent noise problems from push-buttons.
Parameter #55 is the minimum ratio allowed at
any time in SLAVE mode.
NOTE THAT THE RATIO CANNOT GO
BELOW THIS VALUE, EVEN IN RESPONSE TO
DOWN FUNCTIONS OR WHEN THE FLOAT
PARAMETER IS SET. This parameter must be set
with these restrictions in mind.

When parameter #54 is set to 0000 0000h, the
SETPOINT at start-up (whether after a stop or after a
power loss) is always at zero. The speed SETPOINT
“floats” down with the motor speed. A new speed
SETPOINT must be entered or the UP MOP function
may be used to set speed.
When parameter #54 is set to 0000 0001h, the
SETPOINT at stop or power loss is “frozen” at the
current value, and the DFS-1 will return to this speed
when the drive next starts up. It is not necessary to
enter a new SETPOINT on start-up if a return to the
previous speed is desired.

The MASTER JOG Speed is the speed to which
the motor will go when a JOG input is activated on
one of the Digital inputs (any of the seven digital
inputs may be programmed as a JOG input) when the
DFS-1 is in the MASTER mode. If more than one
input is programmed as a JOG input, they must both
be present to activate the Master Jog Speed function
(the inputs are logically ANDed).

the SETPOINT cannot go to less than the value of
the minimum ratio (parameter #55) in FLOAT mode.

The DFS-1 is shipped with a default set of
parameters which allows it to be connected as shown
in Figure 3 on page 3 and run with basic push-
buttons and a speed pot. This supplies a "baseline" of
operation which may be used to test the functionality
of the board.
Making parameter changes requires the optional
keypad display unit or a computer with serial
communications capability.
This section covers the basic steps necessary to
set up the DFS-1 beyond the needs of the default
parameters. The setup is arranged roughly from the
most basic and common steps to the least commonly
used parameter changes. You need only follow the
steps until you have all the parameters you will use
checked and/or changed.
The above parameters are the most commonly
used ones. For other default settings, refer to the
parameter descriptions beginning on page 15.
If your needs are met by the list above, then all
you have to do is hook up the drive to power and to
the motor and run it. No changes in parameter
settings are necessary.
For the purposes of this chapter, it will be
assumed that the setup is being accomplished
through the use of the KDU-1 keypad display unit.

4.1
BASIC SETUP OF THE DFS-1 CONTROLLER
1. SET PARAMETER #6 FOR THE MAXIMUM
SPEED OF THE MOTOR IN RPM.
6. SET PARAMETER #42 FOR THE DRIVE
GAIN.
The base speed of the motor is listed on the
nameplate of the motor. If the base speed of the
motor is other than 1750, you must change
parameter #6. For instance, if the base speed of your
motor is 2500 RPM, enter 2500 into parameter #6.
This value is defaulted to 50% of the range and
therefore set to 128. This should be adequate for
many applications. If you are doing VERY close
tracking with other motors, it may be necessary to
increase this value, but it may be better to leave it
alone in the initial setup.
2. SET PARAMETER #14 TO THE
ENGINEERING UNITS VALUE FOR
PARAMETER #6.
7. SET PARAMETER #43 FOR THE DRIVE
STABILITY.
This is a number which is set equal to the base speed
of the motor. It may be any convenient value in
process or reference terms. If the speed of the motor
is 2500 RPM, but you want to scale this to 0 to
100.00 %, enter 10000 in parameter #14.
This value is also defaulted to 50% and, like
parameter #42, is set to 128. If you have a high
inertia or pulsating load, it may be necessary to
increase this value, but it may be better to leave it
alone in the initial setup.
3. SET PARAMETER #7 TO THE PULSES PER
REVOLUTION OF THE ENCODER.
8. SET PARAMETER #44 FOR MOTORING
CURRENT LIMIT.
If the motor is a 4 pole motor (259TZ frame or
smaller) this number will be 120 (the default). If
the motor is an 8 pole motor, the number will be
240. A 600 PPR quadrature encoder will be set up
as 2400 in this parameter.
This value is defaulted to 100% of motor current.
There may be reasons to set this to a lower value
(such as during start-up), but, unless the drive is
specially set up, it doesn't do any good to set it to a
higher value. Other circuitry limits output current
to 150% of drive rating.
4. SET PARAMETER #46 TO X4 FOR MOST
APPLICATIONS.
9. SET PARAMETER #45 FOR REGENERATIVE
CURRENT LIMIT.
Notable exceptions are for a servo application with
a 600 ppr encoder or other application where the
output frequency of the encoder may exceed 40
Khz. For example, a motor with a 600 ppr encoder
will reach 46Khz at 1150 rpm. This assumes that
parameter #7 (Encoder PPR) is set to 2400 and the
pulse multiplier is set to X4. Where the motor
would run faster than 1150 rpm, this parameter
This value is defaulted to 100% of motor current.
There may be reasons to set this to a lower value
(such as during start-up), but, unless the drive is
specially set up, it doesn't do any good to set it to a
higher value. Other circuitry limits output current
to 150% of drive rating.
should be set to X2 and parameter #7 should be set 10. SET PARAMETER #5 FOR MASTER MODE
to 1200 ppr. With these settings, the encoder
frequency would reach 50 Khz @ 2500rpm. Above
2500 rpm, the settings should be X1 for Pulse
Multiplier and 600 ppr for parameter #7.
OR A SLAVE MODE
Setting this parameter determines which remaining
parameters must be set up.
If setting up in MASTER Mode, proceed to
MASTER MODE SETUP (Section 4.2).
5. SET PARAMETER #47 FOR THE
MODULATION MODE.
This parameter is defaulted to Non-Regenerative
operation. If you want Regenerative operation, you
must change it. Servo operation is regenerative
operation. There is also an option for the method
of modulation. See page 28.
If setting up in a SLAVE mode, proceed to SLAVE
MODE SETUP (Section 4.3).
After setting MASTER or SLAVE, proceed to
INPUTS AND OUTPUT (Section 4.4).
Note: If regenerative mode is used, the drive may
require an optional DC bus loader to dissapate the
regenerative energy and avoid over voltage faults.
If using an external communications, proceed to
COMMUNICATIONS setup (Section 4.5).

PRESET SPEED.
1. SET PARAMETER #5 FOR THE MASTER
MODE.
This step is optional, if you wish to use a preset
speed which can be toggled by the PRESET
function. Enter the speed in Engineering Units.
Set the basic operation in this parameter to
MASTER.
This parameter also has options for current control
(see page 16). Selecting MASTER into the
parameter takes care of the normal MASTER mode
operation case because the default is normal current
limits.
Other choices are torque limiting (either motoring
or regenerative) and horsepower control. If one of
these choices is made, it will be necessary to either:
1. Set up one analog input for a reference (see
INPUTS and OUTPUTS), or
6. SET PARAMETER #54 FOR SETPOINT
CONDITION (FLOAT OR FREEZE) AT
START-UP.
If you want the motor to return to the speed at which
it was running prior to shutdown or power loss, set
this parameter to Freeze.
If you want the motor to wait for the speed to be
reentered after a stop or power loss, enter Float in
this parameter. See page 30.
2. Make provision to supply reference through
communications (see page 16).
7. SET PARAMETER #48 FOR JUMP OR MOP
MODE.
2. SET PARAMETER #17 OR PARAMETER #21
IF AN ANALOG INPUT IS TO BE USED.
If an analog speed reference is to be used, either
Analog Input #1 (see page 20) or Analog Input #2
(see page 22) must be set to Speed Reference Input.
By default, Analog Input #1 is set up as a Speed
Reference Input and Analog Input #2 is a General
Purpose Input.
Jump mode operation is to make UP/DOWN speed
changes temporary. MOP mode makes the DFS-1
act like a Motor Operated Potentiometer. See page
28.
8. SET PARAMETER #49 FOR MASTER JUMP
UP AMOUNT.
This is the amount (in Engineering Units) by which
the speed command will increase when the UP
function is activated. See page 29.
You must also set parameter #18 (0 to 10VDC by
default) or parameter #22 (4 to 20 milliamps default)
for the type of input. Then set up the scaling
(Engineering units) in parameters #19 and #20 for
Analog Input #1, or parameters #22 and #23 for
Analog Input #2.
If neither analog input is set up as a speed reference,
then the speed reference must be supplied from the
optional front panel control or from the
communications.
9. SET PARAMETER #50 FOR MASTER JUMP
DOWN AMOUNT.
This is the amount (in Engineering Units) by which
the speed command will decrease when the DOWN
function is activated. See page 29.
3. SET PARAMETER #8 FOR THE MASTER
ACCELERATION RATE.
Set the master speed acceleration time in
milliseconds (1 millisecond = .001 second). The
range is from 0 (speed changes are step functions)
to 255 seconds.
4. SET PARAMETER #9 FOR THE MASTER
DECELERATION RATE.
Set the master speed deceleration time in
milliseconds (1 millisecond = .001 second). The
range is from 0 (speed changes are step functions)
to 255 seconds.

INVERSE SLAVE mode affects the way a setpoint
is entered.
Set slave speed acceleration time in milliseconds
(1 millisecond = .001 second). The range is from 0
(speed changes are step functions) to 255 seconds.
See page 18.
This parameter also has options for current control
(see page 16). Setting a 1 takes care of the normal 7. SET PARAMETER #11 FOR THE SLAVE

Other choices are torque limiting (either motoring
or regenerative) and horsepower control. For these
options see page 16.
DECELERATION RATE.
Set the slave speed deceleration time in milliseconds
(1 millisecond = .001 sec). The range is from 0
(speed changes are step functions) to 255 seconds.
See page 18.
2. SET PARAMETER #17 OR PARAMETER #21
IF AN ANALOG INPUT IS TO BE USED.
If an analog speed reference is to be followed in
SLAVE mode, either Analog Input #1 (see page
20) or Analog Input #2 (see page 22) must be set to
1 (Speed Reference Input). By default, Analog Input
#1 is set up as a Speed Reference Input.
8. SET PARAMETER #13 FOR A SLAVE
PRESET RATIO.
This step is optional, if you wish to use a preset
ratio which can be toggled by the PRESET function.
Enter the speed in Engineering Units.
9. SET PARAMETER #54 FOR SETPOINT
CONDITION AT START-UP.
You must also set parameter #18 (0 to 10VDC by
default) or parameter #22 for the type of input. Then
set up the scaling parameters #19 and #20, or #22
and #23.
If neither analog input is set up as a speed reference
input, then the speed reference to be followed must
be supplied from the Frequency Reference In.
If you want the motor to return to the ratio at which
it was running prior to shutdown or power loss, set
this parameter to 1. If you want the motor to wait
for the ratio to be reentered after a stop or power
loss, enter 0. See page 30.
10. SET PARAMETER #48 FOR JUMP OR MOP
MODE.
3. SET PARAMETER #15 FOR THE BASE
RATIO.
Jump mode operation is to make UP/DOWN ratio
changes temporary. MOP mode makes the DFS-1
act like a Motor Operated Potentiometer. See page
28.
This is the number which is used to allow the
SETPOINT to be set at a desired number instead
of at a number dictated by gear ratios, motor speeds,
and other factors. See page 19.
11. SET PARAMETERS #51 AND #52 FOR SLAVE
JUMP UP/DOWN AMOUNTS.
4. SET PARAMETER #16 FOR THE MAXIMUM

These are the amounts (in Engineering Units) by
which the ratio command will increase or decrease
when the UP or DOWN functions are activated.
See page 29.
This setting is the highest ratio allowed under any

1. SET PARAMETERS #17, #18, #19, AND #20
TO SET UP ANALOG INPUT #1.
4. SET PARAMETERS #28, #29, AND #30 TO
SET UP ANALOG OUTPUT #2.
If Analog Input #1 is to be used for speed reference,
which is the default mode, and the reference is to
be 0 to +10VDC, no action is necessary to change
from the defaults. If the input is to be 4 to 20mA,
then parameter #18 must be changed. Set up
parameters #19 and #20 to conform with the speed
range set up by parameter #14.
If Analog Output #2 is to be used for a Load Output
signal from -10 to +10VDC, then nothing needs to
be done. If not used for this purpose, it may be used
as a General Purpose Output, a Load Output, or a
communications output port by changing parameter
#28. Parameters #29 and #30 may be set up in
Engineering Units.
If Analog Input #1 is not used as a speed reference,
it may be used for any other signal which may be 5. SET PARAMETERS #31 THROUGH #37 FOR
useful to the processor or the external program. Pre-
programmed purposes are listed on page 20, but
the uses of the analog inputs are not limited to those
items.
DIGITAL INPUT FUNCTIONS.
If the digital inputs as listed on page 6 are suitable,
then no changes need to be made. However, note
that any Digital Input may be used for ANY purpose
and more than one input may be used for the same
purpose (the inputs will be logically ANDed - i.e.,
they must both be present to function). The same
parameters make provisions for input sense. See
page 25.
2. SET PARAMETERS #21, #22, #23, AND #24
TO SET UP ANALOG INPUT #2.
If Analog Input #2 is to be used for Speed Reference
Input, Analog Input #1 must be changed to
something else by changing parameter #17 to
something other than 1, and then changing 6. SET PARAMETERS #53 FOR DEBOUNCE
parameter #21 to 1. Parameter #22 must be set up
for the form of input (4 to 20mA is the default),
and parameters #23 and #24 set up in EGU's
conforming to parameter #14.
Analog Input #2 may be used for any analog input
the processor or program may need, either as a
predefined use (see page20) or as a General Purpose
Input.
TIME.
If the inputs are driven by relays or push-button,
contact bounce and/or noise could generate multiple
commands. This command sets the minimum time
(in milliseconds) that a command must be present
before it is considered valid.
7. SET PARAMETERS #38, #39, #40, AND #41
FOR DIGITAL OUTPUT FUNCTIONS.
If the outputs listed on page 7 (the defaults) are
suitable, no changes need to be made, but each
output can be reassigned as necessary (see page 26
- parameter #38) as required. The output relays can
also be assigned as normally open or normally
closed.
3. SET PARAMETERS #25, #26, AND #27 TO
SET UP ANALOG OUTPUT #1.
If Analog Output #1 is to be used for a Speed Output
signal from -10 to +10VDC, then nothing needs to
be done. If not used for this purpose, it may be used
as a General Purpose Output, a Load Output, or a
communications output port by changing parameter
#25. Parameters #26 and #27 may be set up in
Engineering Units.

COMMUNICATIONS SETUP
The local operator's panel operates at CPU level
and does not require the setup of any
communications parameters. The following setup
is for an external communications link.
Before connecting to the external communications
link, the following parameters must be set properly.
The other parameters may be set after the link is
established.
This parameter may be used to include or exclude
control functions from local control and assign them
to the remote link. The setup of this parameter has
nothing to do with assigning functions to input
terminals! This parameter ONLY AFFECTS
WHETHER THE CONTROL OF THE
FUNCTION IS LOCAL OR REMOTE.
The default parameters set up the DFS-1 as follows:
4. SET PARAMETER #4 TO SELECT THE
COMMUNICATIONS PROTOCOL.
This parameter selects the POWERTEC binary
protocol.
•
•
•
•
the unit has an address of 001
the baud rate is 9600
The unit is in local mode
using a binary communications protocol
5. SET PARAMETER #56 FOR
COMMUNICATIONS TURN AROUND
DELAY.
Set parameter #56 to default to 2 though it may
have to be set to 6 or 8 for most reliable
communications with Allen Bradley devices.
1. SET PARAMETER #1 FOR
COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK ADDRESS.
This is the address which the DFS-1 will respond
to on the external comm link. Since the default is
001, it might be a good idea to start the network
addresses at 002 so that a unit being replaced does
not cause an addressing conflict.
Addresses up to 255 are valid, but the RS-485
protocol only allows for 32 units on a single line
without repeaters.
2. SET PARAMETER #2 FOR
COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK SPEED.
This is the communications rate at which the DFS-
1 will operate on an external comm link. Rates
range from 300 baud to 38.4 Kilobaud (see page
16).

GENERAL DEFINITIONS:
[STX] - 02h - Start of data
[ETX] - 03h - End of data
[ACK] - 06h - Acknowledge
[NAK] - 15h - Negative Acknowledge
[DLE] - 10h - Data Link Escape
[CMD] -xxh - Command to be executed
[CSM] - xxh - Checksum, 2’s complement sum of the
data between the [STX] and [ETX] characters
GENERAL NOTES:
1. The use of brackets in this document means that
there is a single byte of information contained
within the brackets. This convention is used to
insure that the construction of the message is clear.
2. If the below message was sent, the following
checksum would be computed:
DLE STX UID CMD
DATA
DLE ETX CSM
[10] [02] [01] [82] [00][00][10][10][00] [10] [03] [6D]
Note the delimited datum character. Since a 10h is
the DLE, the only way the software can know that
a 10h in the middle of a data word is datum and
not the DLE is to put the datum in twice. The
driver software must know that a single 10h is the
DLE and not datum! The driver software must
actually use only one 10h to compute the check-
sum value.
01 + 82 + 00 + 00 + 10 + 00 = 93: 2’s complement = 6D
3. All data is sent in four bytes regardless of the
needed length of data. For instance, parameter 48
has the value of 0 for jump and 1 for MOP. The
actual parameter is passed in communications
however as a [00][00][00][00] for jump mode and
a [00][00][00][01] for MOP mode. In this way, all
data has an expected length of 4 bytes.

(1000 equals 100.0%) A torque of 100.0%
would then be sent as [00][00][03][E8].
Description:
This command reads/sets the operating setpoint

for the setpoint when a special application mode is
active (see parameter 5). The modes currently
defined are shown below. It is possible in the future
that additional application modes may be added.

normal setpoint and ramp rates on any succes-
sive commands. Speed/ratio requires 4 bytes,
accel requires 4 bytes and decel requires 4 bytes.

DFS S OFTWARE MODIFICATION FOR
DYNAMIC BRAKING OR OUTPUT CONTACTOR
OPERATION
Functional Description
A new function for Contactor Aux has been added to the digital input choices. When configured as
described in the example, 24VDC must be present at this input for the drive to run. Parameter #62, Contactor
Delay, is a number of 25ms intervals that will occur between the DFS controller acceptance of a run command
and the firing of the transistors. If the Contactor Aux input signal is low, the DFS starts the timer and closes
the Contactor Output. If the Contactor Aux input does not switch high before the timer runs out, the drive will
return to the stop condition. If the Contactor Aux input does switch high, the drive will start running when the
timer runs out.
Example Setup for Dynamic Braking
1
2
3
Set Digital Input #7 mode to Contactor Aux, polarity to Active Low.
Set Digital Output #4 mode to Normally Open, polarity to Normally Closed.
Set Contactor Delay to 20 (20 x 25ms = 500ms = 1/2 second).
Run command causes the Contactor Output to close, the Contactor Relay opens, the feedback contacts
close and the drive starts to run.
Example Setup for Output Contactor
1
2
3
Set Digital Input #7 mode to Contactor Aux, polarity to Active Low.
Set Digital Output #4 mode to Normally Open, polarity to Normally Closed.
Set Contactor Delay to 10 (10 x 25ms = 250ms = 1/4 second).
Run command causes the Contactor Output to close, the Contactor Relay closes, the feedback contacts
close and the drive starts to run.
The difference in the operation of the two types of contactors is that the Dynamic Braking Contactor is
normally closed whereas the Output Contactor is normally open. In both contactors, the auxilliary contacts are
normally open.
Terms Used
1
Contactor Aux - The digital input on the DFS board which is connected to the feedback contacts on the
contactor relay.
2
Contactor Output - The digital output on the DFS board which activates the solenoid on the contactor
relay.

DFS-1 Printed Circuit Board with connector plugs
10 Pin Connector Cable Part # 3570-141420-001
14 Pin Connector Cable Part # 3570-141419-001
Nylon Spacer #6 x 1/4” diam x 1/4” long
Machine Screw, Pan-head, 6/32 x 1/2” long
Star Washer, #6
1. Disconnect the cables from the Current Controller board to the Driver board (P2) and
the Capacitor board (P3) and let them hang for the time being.
2. Remove the 141-108 Current Controller board and the 141-107 Speed Controller
board and set them aside. These boards have two screws each which hold them to the
metal rail at the bottom and two hex nuts each which hold them to the Fuse board at
the top. Save two of the hex nuts to mount the DFS-1 board.
3. There are four metal studs on the bottom of the Fuse board at the top of the drive. The
two outside studs will be used to mount the DFS board, but the two center studs must
be removed. Remove them and set them aside.
4. Remove the 14 pin connector cable connected to the Driver board (left side of the
chassis), and replace it with the new cable 3570-141419-001. WARNING: Do
NOT use the original drive cables with the DFS-1 board. This will cause damage
to the drive circuitry. Either end of the cable may be plugged into the Driver board.
Let the other end hang down the left side of the chassis because it will connect to the
left side of the DFS board.
5. Remove the 10 pin connector cable connected to the Capacitor board (right side of
the main chassis) and replace it with the new cable 3570-141420-001. Either end of
the cable may be plugged into the Capacitor board. The other end of this cable will
connect to the left side of the DFS-1 board, so make sure you stretch it across the
chassis behind the DFS-1 board.
6. Mount the top of the DFS-1 board on the two outside studs at the bottom of the Fuse
board using a star washer on each and the hex nuts saved when the other boards were
removed.
7. Secure the bottom of the DFS-1 board to the rail, which previously supported the
bottom of the Current and Speed boards, with the two screws supplied. The nylon
spacers must be mounted between the DFS-1 board and the metal rail. Use a star
washer between the DFS-1 board and the head of the screw.
8. Connect the 14 Pin connector cable to P2 on the left side of the DFS-1 board.
9. Connect the 10 Pin connector cable to P4 on the left side of the DFS-1 board.
Turn to section 1.0 of the DFS-1 manual to make the connections required.
