WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
•Do not touch electrically live parts such as output terminals or internal wiring.
•All input power must be electri- cally disconnected before pro- ceeding.
5.If the 0 to 5 VDC is present, the potentiometer circuit is sending the correct feedback signal to the control PC board. Check the leads and plug J1. See the Wiring Diagram.
6.If the 0 to 5 VDC is NOT present or NOT correct, the control PC board is not receiving the proper feedback voltage from the potentiometer circuit.
