5. Nastavitev in ožičenje

The controller features clearly labeled screw terminals for input power and motor output. Ensure all connections are secure before applying power.

1. Prepoznajte terminale: Locate the 'IN' terminals for power input and 'OUT' terminals for motor connection.
2. Povežite vhodno napajanje: Connect your DC power supply (6V, 12V, or 24V) to the 'IN' terminals. Observe polarity: positive to '+' and negative to '-'.
3. Priključite motor: Connect your brushed DC motor to the 'OUT' terminals. The polarity here will determine the initial direction of rotation.
4. Connect Reversing Switch: The included switch is pre-wired to allow for motor direction reversal. Connect its wires as shown in the diagram.

6. Navodila za uporabo

Once the controller is correctly wired and powered, you can begin operation:

1. Vklop: Ensure your DC power supply is active.
2. Prilagodi hitrost: Rotate the potentiometer knob (the silver knob on the board) clockwise to increase motor speed and counter-clockwise to decrease motor speed.
3. Spremeni smer: Use the attached black switch to reverse the motor's direction of rotation. The switch typically has three positions: one for forward, one for reverse, and a center-off position.

7. Vzdrževanje

The Qinlorgo DC Motor Speed Controller is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance. Follow these general guidelines:

• Vzdržujte čisto: Periodically clean the controller board to prevent dust and debris accumulation, which can affect performance. Use a soft, dry brush or compressed air.
• Izogibajte se vlagi: Protect the device from water, humidity, and corrosive environments.
• Preverite povezave: Regularly check all wire connections to ensure they remain tight and secure.
• Delovno okolje: Operate the controller within its specified temperature and humidity ranges to ensure optimal lifespan.

8. Odpravljanje težav

If you encounter issues with your motor speed controller, refer to the following troubleshooting steps:

• Motor se ne vrti:
  • Verify that the DC power supply is connected correctly and providing the correct voltage (6 V, 12 V ali 24 V).
  • Ensure the motor is properly connected to the 'OUT' terminals.
  • Confirm that the motor is a brushed DC motor. This controller is not compatible with brushless motors.
  • Check the reversing switch position; it might be in the 'off' or neutral position.
• Speed Not Changing:
  • Ensure a motor is connected. The controller requires a load (motor) to regulate speed effectively.
  • Rotate the potentiometer knob through its full range to check for responsiveness.
• Občasno delovanje:
  • Check all wire connections for looseness or poor contact.
  • Ensure the current draw of your motor does not exceed the 3A maximum rating of the controller. Overloading can cause intermittent operation or damage.
