2 OVERVIEW
There are several models within this series of digital controllers to
accommodate different test stands, as follows:
Series DC controllers have two functional modes:
1. OPERATING MODE
This is the operating mode in which testing sequences can be started and
stopped.
2. TEST PARAMETER SETUP
In this mode, test parameters are configured, such as rate of speed, number of
cycles, password editing, and other parameters.

3 MECHANICAL SETUP & SAFETY
3.1 Mounting
The controller should be placed on a clean, flat and level work area free from
vibration. If desired, the controller can be secured to the work area with 1/4-20
screws fastened into the underside of the housing. The controller can also be
mounted using the ESM301-003 mounting kit. Screws of various lengths are
supplied with this kit to accommodate a range of bench thicknesses. Refer to
the following illustration for proper assembly:
In general, the controller can be mounted at any angle, although extra care
should be taken during installation and operation.
3.2 Setting Up The Controller
The power plug and controller cable must be connected to the rear of the
controller, as shown in the illustration below:
IMPORTANT: Do not fasten any screws more than 0.25
in [6 mm] into the base of the test stand, or damage to
internal components can occur.

1. Fuse
2. STAND / Controller Cable Connector
Plug one end of the cable into this connector, and the other end into the
connector adjacent to the motor on the test stand. If this cable is not
connected, the error message ENCODER ERROR will be shown on the
display and the test stand cannot be operated.
3. PC / PC Control Connector
Plug one end of the 09-1056 serial cable into this connector, and the other
end into a serial connector on a computer.
4. Power Plug Receptacle
Plug the power cord in here.
5. ENCODER / Travel Indication Connector
Applicable for TSTM / TSTMH test stands only
Plug one end of the RJ11 cable into this connector, and the other end into
the connector on the underside of the mechanism housing on the test stand.
6. GAUGE / Gauge Cable Connector
Plug one end of the 09-1143 cable into this connector, and the other end
into a Series 5, Series BG or BGI gauge.

3.3 Connecting Power
Plug one end of the power cord into its receptacle at the rear of the controller
and the other end into a wall outlet with local earth ground (3-prong connector).
Before turning on power, the following safety checks and procedures should be
performed:
1. Never operate the controller if there is any visible damage to the power
cord or the test stand. The controller is powered by 110V/220V. Any
contact with this high voltage can cause serious injury or even death.
2. Ensure that the controller is kept away from water or any other
electrically conductive liquids at all times.
3. Make sure the electrical outlet powering the controller has local earth
ground (3-prong connector).
4. The controller should be serviced by a trained technician only. Power
must be disconnected before the controller is opened.
After the above safety checks and procedures have been performed, the
controller may be powered on and is ready for operation.
