General Information

Introduction

The Baldor controls represent the latest technology in microprocessor based motor controls. In addition to the user programmable parameters available in every control, many different expansion boards are available from Baldor to further customize the control to most any application. Expansion boards are categorized by compatibility into two groups: Group 1 and Group 2, see Table 1-1. A board from either group may be used alone in a control. If two boards are to be used, one board must be from Group 1 and the other from Group 2.

Note: Using two Group 1 or two Group 2 boards in the same control is not allowed.
