E-Bypass Control Features
Auto Bypass
• Relay logic allows user to send the motor to bypass
mode based on the drive’s programmable relay.
• The drive’s programmable relay, typically set to fault,
can be set up for applications that run full speed for
an extended period of time.
Enable Input
• Generally used for safety tie-ins; the motor will not
operate the drive or bypass when open.
Common Remote Start/Stop
• Common remote start/stop can be used in both drive
and bypass mode.
Essential Services Mode
• Also used for smoke purge; the motor goes to bypass
regardless of the selected mode.
• No call to stop will have an effect, including open
safety or stop commands.
• Only turning the power off or opening this contact will
stop the motor.
