 Advantage 
Control
Modules (ACMs) 
provide a 
cost-effective alternative to push-
buttons, selector switches, indicating 
lights, reset mechanisms, bell alarms 
and panel meters when used with the 
Advantage product line. Typical input/
output control functions provided by 
panel mounted devices are conveniently
packaged in a series of modules 
depending on application and 
complexity.
Sixteen styles cover applications 
ranging from:
■ Full voltage non-reversing
■ Full voltage reversing
■ Full voltage multispeed
■ Reduced voltage
■ DeviceNet compatible
Modules exist for each application to 
provide the functions of:
■ Status only
❑ Indicating lights
❑ Reset
■ Status, START/STOP and RESET
■ Status, HOA and RESET
■ Status, START/STOP/HOA and 
RESET
Full Voltage Pushbutton
Control Module
Metering Module
An additional Metering Module 
replaces conventional ammeters 
(three-phase), replaces reset mecha-
nisms and displays trip cause and 
data, control voltage and status.
This Metering Module can be used 
independently or in conjunction with 
any of the ACMs. An extra plug con-
nection is available on the rear of each 
ACM to accept the Metering Module 
input.
The ACM family has been designed to 
save:
■ Panel space (versus conventional 
pushbuttons, selector switches and 
indicating lights)
■ Mounting and assembly labor
■ Wiring and installation time
Regardless of the configuration, instal-
lation requires mounting only one 2.25 
x 3.5 inch module, substantially reduc-
ing space requirements. Fitting a stan-
dard Greenlee punch and die set, 
Greenlee #60071, installation is 
accomplished with only two screws.
ACMs provide savings in wiring costs 
as well. Regardless of the complexity 
of the application, wiring is reduced to 
a single plug-in cable, see photo at left.
Communication is not restricted by 
use of the Advantage Control Mod-
ules. An extra plug connection is 
available on the rear of the ACM or 
Metering Module to allow a 
WPONIDNA or WPONI Communica-
tions module to be plugged in. 
Full Voltage and Reduced Voltage 
Control Modules
Status Only
■ 4 LEDs indicate that the motor is 
OFF, Running, Tripped or in Alarm 
mode (motor current is above the 
trip current setting)
■ Includes RESET button
START/STOP
■ Motor START/STOP controlled by 
START and STOP buttons
■ Includes all features of Status Only 
module
HOA Selector Switch with 
START/STOP
■ In HAND mode, motor will start and 
stop in response to START/STOP 
pushbuttons
■ In AUTO mode, motor will run in 
response to remote signal
■ Includes all features of Status Only 
module
ON/OFF/AUTO Selector Switch
■ Motor will run in ON mode and not 
in the OFF mode
■ In AUTO mode the motor will run in 
response to a remote signal
■ Includes all features of Status Only 
module
Reduced Voltage Control Modules
The four reduced voltage pushbutton 
control modules provide control using 
two to four starters and/or contactors. 
The faceplates are identical to the full 
voltage modules, and the pushbuttons 
all perform the same functions. The 
module is programmed for the type of 
reduced voltage starter which sets the 
sequence of contact open and closing.
