Based on this all this motor is, is a 3 phase motor with a encoder mounted to it? I can run it with a VFD and feed the encoder signal to acorn and we are done?martyscncgarage wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 11:19 amCan you try and reach out to CTB to see if they can provide the correct manual for your drive?TRM wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 11:05 am Ok I hit a snag last night. First off all the key pads in the manual have 5 buttons and mine has 4.
On page 73 of the manual 3-27 "An" indicates invalid password. That's the only A group in the menu that I can find.
Here is a video of me going through the menu. Where do we go from here?
