Receiving & Installation 2-3
Sensor and Motor Connections Refer to Figure 2-2.
Brushless DC motors have eleven (11) wires: three (3) motor phase
power wires, three (3) hall sensor wires, two (2) wires for hall sensor
power and sensor common, one (1) wire for motor ground and two (2)
wires for motor thermal switch.
Note: Baldor BLDC motors have 120° Hall sensor spacing.
1. Verify that the 60°/120° jumper is in the 120° position.
2. Verify that the Speed Potentiometer is set to zero (5KW pot is set
fully CCW).
3. Place a 0-10A AC AMP meter in series with the source. This allows
measurement of AC current during power up testing.

7. Connect the sensor power lead (red) to P4 terminal strip pin VR on
the upper board.
8. Connect the sensor power common lead (black) to P4 terminal strip
pin COM on the upper board.
Note: The motor has an internal thermal switch (155°C ±5°C normally
closed contact). The BSC7107 does not use this contact so no
connection to the thermal switch leads is required.
2-4 Receiving & Installation
Reverse Operation
Terminal P4–REV is the forward/reverse control. You can reverse
motor direction by connecting P4–REV to P4–COM. Use a jumper wire,
switch, relay, or an open collector NPN transistor.
Caution: Before reversing directions, make sure the motor is
stopped. This control is not designed for plug reversing.
Sometimes it may be necessary to reverse motor direction without using
terminal P4–REV. This is done by stopping the motor and exchanging
terminals P1–Φ1 with P1–Φ2 on the lower board, and terminals P4–S1
with P4–S3 on the upper board.
Receiving & Installation 2-5
1st Time Power Up Procedure (or after a motor is replaced)
Caution: If full AC Voltage is applied and the motor
connections are wrong, the control will be damaged. Apply
10% of the input voltage to test motor lead connections at
the first time power up or after a motor is replaced.
It is strongly recommended that a Variac (AC Rheostat) be used for the
first time power up procedure. If full AC power is applied to the control
and the motor leads are incorrectly connected (wrong phase) the control
will be damaged.
1. Using a Variac (AC Rheostat) apply 10% of the rated AC input
voltage to the control.
2. Slowly turn the speedpot CW. Watch for erratic rotation or
excessive source current. If either occurs, immediately return the
speedpot fully CCW, and turn off the power.
3. Try another phase combination of P1 Φ1, Φ2 and Φ3.
There are six (6) combinations for connecting the three phase
motor leads to P1 Φ1, Φ2 and Φ3.
4. Apply power and test again. One combination will work. The correct
combination will allow smooth rotation of the motor, and the lowest
current draw from the AC source.
5. Remove AC power.
6. Remove the Variac.
7. Connect normal AC input voltage at P1–AC and AC terminals.
8. Apply power and check for proper motor operation.

Adjustments
Current Limit Adjustment
The current limit adjustment is factory set at 10 AMPS and you should
not have to increase this setting for the Series BSC 7107 control.
Rotating the I Limit potentiometer on the upper board CCW decreases
the current limit.
To calculate motor current, refer to Figure 2-2 and measure the voltage
(VTP) at the “Scaled motor current test point”. The voltage should be
770mV for a 7 AMP motor.
VTP
110mvńA
770mv
110mvńa
+ MotorCurrent +
+ 7A
The correct setting of the I Limit potentiometer is 125% of the FLA rating
of the motor.
1. Preset the I Limit pot fully CW for maximum FLA.
2. Apply power and run the motor at full or normal running speed.
3. Load the motor to 125% of its FLA rating (or the desired maximum
load).
4. Rotate the I Limit pot CCW (clockwise) slowly until the measured
motor current begins to decrease.
5. Slowly rotate the I Limit pot CW to just obtain the 125% FLA
measurement.
Note: Do not use the Current Limit trimpot as a torque control or to
reduce the speed of a motor.
Caution: Keep the average continuous DC current draw
under 7 amperes, and make sure the motor is rotating. A
stalled brushless DC motor can quickly overheat the control
and/or the motor resulting in damage to either or both
devices.
Adjustments 3-1
Minimum Speed Adjustment
1. Set the Speed Pot to zero speed (fully CCW).
2. Set the MIN pot on the upper board (Figure 2-2) fully CCW.
3. Apply power to the control.
4. Slowly rotate the MIN CW until the motor begins to rotate. Then
turn the pot CCW until the motor just stops. The control will now
run with a near–zero deadband.
5. If a non–zero minimum speed is desired, rotate the MIN pot CW to
the desired minimum speed setting.
Adjusting Closed Loop Gain
1. Set the MAX pot on the upper board (Figure 2-2) to the
approximate position shown in the figure.
2. Set the Speed Pot to maximum speed (fully CW).
3. Set the “Closed Loop Gain” pot (Figure 2-2) to its’ fully
CCW position.
4. Apply power to the control. The motor should operate at full speed.
If not, adjust the MAX pot setting until full motor speed is obtained.
5. Adjust the “Closed Loop Gain” pot CW until the motor speed
decreases slightly.
Note: If the “Closed Loop Gain” pot is fully CW and the motor speed
does not decrease, rotate the MAX pot CCW just enough to
make the motor speed decrease slightly. Then adjust the
“Closed Loop Gain” pot CCW just enough so the motor runs at
full speed.
