Dave,
what wiring did your machine have? Mine is the 'Safety Electric'
wiring. I'm still trying to understand it. I'm a physicist, this
stuff is not totally alien to me, I just don't quite understand little
boxes that say 'low voltage release'. Trying to understand items like
c1 with terminals a/b and 13/14
Don't feel bad. (I am a physicist too) . Read over the VFD manual;
their features are very similar. It took me a bit of time looking
over the connections. Dave's diagram was very useful. Check your
connections and switching with a VOM (You are an experimentalist
right?). I was very wary hooking everything up.
At work I am a bit more cavalier 'cause if I fry
a 300.00 piece of electronics, the cost is in the noise, but
if I burn out my VFD or my motor, I will be hurting.
Keep in mind that your rotary switch may have
different jumpers wired in
My VFD is a Westinghouse-TECO, but I think they
are all very similar.
