Quick Start SMC Dialog Plus™ Controller Bulletin 150
Important User Information Solid-state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of electromechanical equipment. Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls (publication SGI-1.1 available from your local Rockwell Automation sales office or online at http://www.rockwellautomation.com/literature/) describes some important differences between solid-state equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices.
Quick Start Introduction This quick start guide provides you with the basic information required to start up your SMC Dialog Plus™ controller. Factory default settings and information regarding installing, programming, and calibrating the controller are described here. The information provided in this Quick Start Guide does not replace the User Manual, which can be ordered or downloaded by visiting www.ab.com/literature.
Quick Start General Precautions ATTENTION: Hazardous voltage is present in the motor circuit even when the SMC-Dialog Plus controller is off. To avoid shock hazard, disconnect the main power before working on the controller, motor, and control devices such as Start-Stop push buttons. Procedures that require parts of the equipment to be energized during troubleshooting, testing, etc., must be performed by properly qualified personnel, using appropriate local safety work practices and precautionary measures.
Quick Start Overload ATTENTION: Overload protection in the SMC Dialog Plus controller is disabled from the factory. The user must program the desired overload trip class and motor full load current rating to achieve proper protection ATTENTION: Overload protection should be properly coordinated with the motor. ATTENTION: During slow speed and/or braking operations, current waveforms exhibit non-sinusoidal characteristics.
Quick Start Pump Control ATTENTION: Pump stopping is not intended to be used as an emergency stop. Refer to the applicable standard for emergency stop requirements. ATTENTION: Pump stopping may cause motor heating depending on the mechanical dynamics of the pumping system. Therefore, select the lowest stopping time setting that will satisfactorily stop the pump. Preset Slow Speed ATTENTION: Slow speed running is not intended for continuous operation due to reduced motor cooling.
Quick Start Protective Modules ATTENTION: To protect the Smart Motor Controller (SMC) and/or motor from line voltage surges, protective modules may be placed on the line, load, or both sides of the SMC. Do not place protective modules on the load side of the SMC when when using pump or braking control. ATTENTION: When installing or inspecting the protective module, make sure that the controller has been disconnected from the power source.
Quick Start Wiring Power Wiring Refer to the product nameplate for power lug termination information including: • Lug wire capacity • Tightening torque requirements • Lug kit catalog numbers (97…1000 A) Control Wiring Refer to the product nameplate for control terminal wire capacity and tightening torque requirements. Each control terminal will accept a maximum of two wires. The SMC Dialog Plus controller accepts control power input of either 100…240V AC, (+10/–15%) single-phase, 50/60 Hz or 24V AC/DC.

Quick Start Programming The SMC Dialog Plus controller can be programmed with the built-in keypad and LCD display or with the optional Bulletin 1201 human interface modules. Parameters are organized in a four-level menu structure and divided into programming groups. Keypad Description ESC SEL Escape Pressing the Escape key causes the programming system to move up one level in the menu structure.

Quick Start Notes: 1. If you plan to use the Bulletin 825 converter module for current feedback to the SMC Dialog Plus controller, this calibration procedure is not necessary. 2. An unbalanced three-phase system may affect the accuracy of the calibration. 3. It is recommended that Parameter #36, Overload Class, is programmed to OFF during the calibration procedure. Calibration requires the motor to be operated at full speed.

Scroll to the next parameter to save the Calibrate group settings. 9. Press the Select key. Scroll with the Up/Down keys to Store In EE selection. Press the Enter key to save the settings to EEPROM.
Quick Start Human Interface Modules The Bulletin 1201 human interface modules with control panels can start and stop the SMC Dialog Plus controller. However, the factory default settings disable control commands other than Stop through the serial communication port. To enable motor control from a connected human interface module, you must take the following programming steps: Series A 1. Enter into the Program mode. 2. Select the Linear List programming group. 3.
