64746AXX
TIP
The signal connected to Digital Input 3 is used to switch between Analog Input 1
(terminal 6) and Analog Input 2 (terminal 7).
4.5 Operation
4.5.1 Switching between a voltage and a current speed reference
• Connect the voltage signal to terminal 6 and the current signal to terminal 7 of the
option module.
– Each of these signals is referenced to terminal 9 (0 V).
– The digital signal used to switch between the voltage and current inputs should
be connected to terminal 4 (digital input 3).
• Set the parameters as follows:
– P-19 = 0
– P-16 = 4 – 20 mA (or 0 – 20 mA / 20 – 4 mA, depending on required format)
TIP
When digital input 3 is open, the voltage format signal (connected to terminal 6) will be
selected.
64759AXX
5.2 Overview
The 2nd relay output module can be used in applications where the analog output from
the drive is converted to a relay output.
Typical applications are where 2 relay outputs are required. The functions of the relays
are programmable in the drive and can be any of the following:
• Drive enabled
• Drive healthy
• Drive at set speed
• Drive at zero speed
• Drive at maximum speed
• Motor in overload

64746AXX
TIP
The second relay output contacts are available on terminals 8 & 9. This relay utilises
the drive’s analog / digital output for operation. Therefore the analog input is not avail-
able when this module is fitted.

The control limit used for settings 4, 5 & 6 is defined in parame-
4: Motor speed > limit ter P2-12.
5: Motor torque / current > limit
6: 2nd analog imput > limit
The 3rd relay output function is fixed to represent "Drive healthy" or "Drive tripped",
depending on whether the N.C. or N.O. contacts are used, and is enabled when
parameter P2-01 = 20, 21 or 22.
Since the 3rd relay output is controlled by the digital output signal on Terminal 3, the 2nd
digital input is not available in this mode.
64760AXX
7.2 Overview
The HVAC relay option module can be used in applications where 2 indicators are
required showing "Drive running" and "Drive tripped".

64748AXX
For typical operation set parameter P-18 to 1. For example, relay 2 closed on enable
(drive running, green LED) and relay 1 closed when drive tripped (red LED).
Use the following information to set parameter P-18 for other types of relay output.
Since the 1st relay output (fitted within the drive) is programmed using parameter P-18
in the drive, 2 completely independent relay outputs are available. The following options
are supported for relay 1:
P-18
0: Relay 1 is closed when drive is disabled
1: Relay 1 is closed when drive is tripped
2: Relay 1 is closed when drive output is not at set speed
3: Relay 1 is closed when drive is switched off
4: Relay 1 is closed when drive output is not at maximum speed
5: Relay 1 is closed when drive output is not in overload
TIP
The two indicator relay (HVAC) option card only operates when P-15 is set to a number
where DI01 sets the enable signal for the drive, e.g. in Terminal Mode P-15 = 0 – 4, 6,
8 or 12. Further information can be found in the MOVITRAC® LTE-B Operating Instruc-
tions.
All other I/Os are not affected.

MOVITRAC® LTP Operating Instructions.
All other I/Os are not affected.
8 PI Controller
64759AXX
8.2 Overview
The PI controller can be used in applications where there is a transducer giving feed-
back from a system that the drive is controlling. For example the pressure can be
controlled in a system where the drive controls a pump and a pressure transducer gives
feedback to the PI controller.
Key benefits:
• Small physical size
• Potted for robustness and environmental protection
• Minimal setup for quick and easy commissioning
– integral gain set by 2 switches
– proportional gain set by potentiometer
• Built in reference potentiometer for convenient setup for feedback reference point.

8.5 Operation
The PI controller card must be set up by adjusting the proportional gain, reference volt-
age preset and integral gain. The following diagram shows the schematic operation of
the PI controller card.

65771AEN
The proportional gain of the PI controller is adjusted using POT1. Minimum gain is
achieved by turning the potentiometer fully counterclockwise (5 turns).
SEW-EURODRIVE recommends using this setting as the starting point during startup
of this option with the MOVITRAC® LT in any application.
For those applications that require a fixed preset operating point, an on-board preset
potentiometer (POT2) is available to avoid having to use an external potentiometer for
this type of application. To use this feature, S4 must be open (Off).
The preset voltage ranges from 0 V (fully counterclockwise) to 10 V (fully clockwise).
The preset voltage can be measured on the PI Option test point .
TIP
• If an external reference is used (either voltage or current format), this potentiometer
must be turned to zero (fully counterclockwise). If this is not done, an offset will be
introduced by POT2.
• When the 4 – 20 mA setting is used for either the feedback (pin 7) or reference
(pin 6) input and the 0 – 10 V setting is used for the other input (e.g. 0 – 10 V ref,
4 – 20 mA feedback), the voltages measured on pins 6 and 7 will be different under
stable operating conditions. This is due to an offset of 2.5 V, which is introduced
internally to support 4 – 20 mA operation. Control settles with the 0 – 10 V input
nominally 2.5 V lower than the 4 – 20 mA input.
• Both potentiometers 1 and 2 are 5-turn types, i.e. they require 5 full turns to cover
the full range. In the event of the maximum or minimum point being reached, the
adjustment disengages to avoid mechanical damage. The factory setting of both
POT 1 and 2 is the minimum value (turned fully counterclockwise).
The integral gain value can be set using switches S1 and S2 on the board. The time can
be set in 3 steps (0.1 s, 1 s and 10 s). The greater integral time will take precedence if
S1 and S2 are closed at the same time.
Switch no. Switch open (OFF) Switch closed (ON)
S1 Integral gain 0.1 s Integral gain 1 s
S2 Integral gain 0.1 s Integral gain 10 s
S3 Feedback format 0 – 10 V Feedback format 4 – 20 mA
S4 Reference format 0 – 10 V Reference format 4 – 20 mA
TIP
9 Converter card
64760AXX
9.2 Overview
There are 2 versions of the module:
• 110 V version for voltages ranging from AC 100 – 120 V
• 230 V version for voltages ranging from AC 200 – 240 V
The converter card allows the digital inputs of the drive to be controlled directly from a
110 V or 240 V control supply without the need for interfacing relays.
TIP
The existing analog input can still be used by connecting the analog signal input on
terminal 6. Alternatively a 4th AC 110 V or AC 230 V digital input can be connected via
the removable plug. All other inputs and outputs to the drive are not affected.
Analog input and digital input 4 cannot be used simultaneously.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
64748AXX
NOTICE
The digital input terminals are optically isolated from the remaining terminals and the
drive terminals. Terminals 1 and 12 are connected internally and must not be connect-
ed to terminal 7 (0 V / GND) as this could result in damage to the option card.
9.5 Operation
9.5.1 Applications requiring 3 digital inputs and 1 analog input
This is the default setting of the drive. The analog input is connected to terminal 6 of the
converter card and this connects straight to the drive’s analog input and works as
standard.
The drive needs to be set up for 4 digital inputs. Further information on this setup can
be found under the following parameters in the corresponding operating instructions:
• MOVITRAC® LTP: Parameter P2-01
• MOVITRAC® LTE-B: Parameter P-15
10 Local switchboard
64771AXX
10.2 Overview
The local switchboard is an auxiliary way to enable and control the speed of the drive
via the input terminal block. The board has switches which are directly connected to the
digital inputs. The potentiometer is connected to the analog input.
TIP
This option should only be used for test purposes. For field application a hard wire
connection must be used to control the drive.
