Document Update

Control Wiring Requirements
D run all signal wiring in either a shielded
cable, or a separate steel conduit.
D only connect shield wire at control
terminal block common terminals 3 and 7.
D do not exceed control wiring length of 15
meters (50 feet).
D use Belden 8760 (or equivalent) – 18AWG
(0.750mm2), twisted pair, shielded or 3
conductor.
À

Control signal cable length is highly dependent on
electrical environment and installation practices. To
improve noise immunity the control terminal block
common must be connected to earth ground. Consult
factory for longer control signal cable length applications.

ATTENTION: The controller is
supplied with an internal 12V
supply. Dry contacts or open
collectors are required for discrete
control inputs. If an external
voltage is applied, component
failure could occur.

ATTENTION: Read the
following sections carefully before
installing the Bulletin 160 SSC.

Control Wiring - Analog Signal Follower
Model
Parameter 59 – [Frequency Source] is used to
select the source of the frequency command.
The frequency source (which controls the
output frequency of the controller) can be
commanded internally using P58 – [Internal
Frequency] or via the Control Terminal Block
(TB3) using a:
D remote potentiometer.
D –10 to +10VDC analog input.
D 4–20mA analog input.
Refer to Chapter 5, parameters 58–60 for
factory default settings.
ATTENTION: Connect and use only
one frequency source at any time. If
more than one frequency source is
connected or in use at the same time,
unintended operation could occur.
If you use P58 – [Internal
Frequency], TB3 – terminal 2 must
be tied to Common (TB3 – terminal 3)
to ensure that unintended operation
does not occur.

Control Wiring - Preset Speed Mode
You can control the output frequency of the
controller via contact closure input to SW1,
SW2, and SW3. A program keypad module is
required to change the factory default settings.
Refer to Chapter 5, parameters 61–70 for the

DU–2

Document Update

Control Wiring (continued)
Bulletin 160 Analog Signal Follower models (catalog # 160X–XAXXNSFlXX) can be operated using
either a unipolar (frequency control only) or bipolar (frequency and direction control) analog input. Use
Parameter 46 – [Input Mode] to select the control method for start, stop, and direction control. There are
four settings from which to choose (shown in Table 2.E below). For all settings, the controller will reverse
when the voltage on the analog input transitions from positive to negative. In two-wire control (Parameter
46 – settings 1 and 3), negative voltage on the analog input will start the controller, which may be
unintended. This applies to both a negative offset in the analog command, or noise which causes the
analog input to go negative. Refer to Table 2.E below for the recommended installation instructions for
all Parameter 46 settings.

ATTENTION: Read the
following sections carefully before
installing the Bulletin 160 SSC.

EMC Directive 89/336/EEC

This controller is a component intended for implementation in
machines or systems for the industrial environment. It has been tested
to meet the Council Directive 89/336 Electromagnetic Compatibility
(EMC) and all applicable standards.
Important: The conformity of the controller and filter to any standard
does not guarantee that the entire installation will conform. Many other factors can influence the total installation and only direct measurements can verify total conformity. It is therefore the responsibility of the machine
manufacturer, to ensure, that the conformity is met.
Essential Requirements for a Conforming EMC Installation
1. An input line filter module (see “Accessories” in Appendix A)
must be installed to reduce conducted emissions. When using the
filters listed in Appendix A, the maximum motor cable lengths
must be 75 meters (250 feet) for controllers rated 200-240VAC,
and 40 meters (133 feet) for controllers rated 380-460VAC.
2. The controller system must be mounted in a shielded enclosure
to reduce radiated emissions.
3. Grounding of equipment and cable shields must be solid, with
low impedance connections.
4. Motor and control cables entering the shielded enclosure must
have EMC-tested shielded cable clamps, or grounded metal
conduit.
5. All motor cables must use shielded cable, or be in grounded metal
conduit.
6. All control and signal wiring must use shielded cable or be in
grounded metal conduit.
7. The Common terminals (TB3-3 & 7) must have a solid connection
to PE (protective earth).

Chapter 2 - Installation/Wiring

Motor Cable Recommendations

Long Motor Cable Effects

A variety of cable types are acceptable for
variable speed controller installations. For many
installations, unshielded cable is adequate,
provided it can be separated from sensitive
circuits. As an approximate guide, allow a
spacing of 1 meter (3.3 feet) for every 10 meters
(33 feet) of unshielded length. If you cannot
separate motor cables from sensitive circuits, or if
you must run motor cables from multiple
controllers (more than three) in a common
conduit or cable trays, shielded motor cable is
recommended to reduce system noise.

Installations with long motor cables may require
the addition of output reactors to reduce voltage
reflections at the motor, and reduce cable
charging current. Capacitive charging of long
motor cables may draw current in excess of the
controller rating. The output reactor should be
installed between the controller output terminals
and the motor, and mounted near the controller.
The controller should be installed as close to the
motor as possible.

Motor cables should be four–conductor with the
ground lead and shield (if using shielded cable)
connected to the controller ground terminal and
the motor frame ground terminal.

Note: If your application requires motor cable
lengths exceeding the recommendations listed
below, contact your local Allen–Bradley Sales
Office.

control inputs. If an external
voltage is applied, component
failure could occur.

Control Wiring - Analog Signal Follower
Model
You can control the output frequency of the
controller via the Control Terminal Block (TB3)
using a remote potentiometer, a –10 to +10 VDC
analog input, a 4–20mA analog input, or P58 –
[Internal Frequency]. Note: Only one
frequency source may be connected at a time. If
the frequency reference potentiometer and the
4–20 mA reference are connected at the same
time, an undetermined frequency reference will
result. If the –10 to +10 VDC analog input is not
used, it should be tied to terminal block common
terminal 7 to improve noise immunity. Refer to
Chapter 5, parameters P58–P60 for factory
default settings.

Control Wiring - Preset Speed Model
You can control the output frequency of the
controller via contact closure input to SW1,
SW2, and SW3. A program keypad module is
required to change the factory default settings.
Refer to Chapter 5, parameters 61–70 for the
eight preset frequency factory default settings
and switch configurations.

Overview of Parameters
This chapter covers both display and program parameters. Display parameters are read only (they
cannot be programmed), while program parameters can be changed to fit your motor control
requirements. You must have a Program Keypad Module to view/change display and program
parameters. The table below describes which parameters apply to the Preset Speed and Analog Signal
Follower models. Refer to the programming example below for programming instructions.

Programming Example
The following is an example of the programming steps required to change a program group parameter setting. In this example,
parameter 31 - [Decel Time] is changed from its factory default setting of 10.0 seconds to 2.2 seconds. Refer to Chapter 3, page
NO TAG for an explanation of Program Keypad Module display and programming keys. Note: To reset ALL values to original
factory default settings, refer to P56 - [Reset Defaults].

Chapter 5 - Parameters and Programming

Display Group Parameters
This group of parameters consists of commonly viewed controller operating conditions such as controller
output frequency, output voltage, output current and frequency command. All parameters in this group
are read only.

Display Group
You may find it necessary for the controller to display a specific parameter each time it is powered up. (This is
especially useful when troubleshooting and making system adjustments). Follow these steps to make the controller
power up at a specific display parameter:
1. While in display mode, increment to the parameter you wish to see when the controller powers up.
2. Press the
key twice. When you cycle power to the controller it will display the parameter that you set.
Note: If you change any program group parameters, the controller (when powered up) will show the last display
parameter that was present before you went into program mode.

À See Table 6.A below for fault descriptions.

Controllers equipped with a program keypad
module will flash the display when a fault is
present. If a fault occurs, parameter 07 – [Last
Fault] displays. You can cross reference the
number that appears on the display (e.g., 22) with
the fault numbers listed in Table 6.A.

Tips To Clear a Fault
IMPORTANT:If a fault occurs, it is important to
address and correct the fault as well as the
condition that caused the fault.
To clear a fault, perform one of the following:
D Press the program keypad’s stop button.
D Cycle power to the controller.
D Cycle the TB3 stop input signal to the
controller .
