Components clau:

• Pantalla digital: Shows current settings and status.
• Control Buttons (SET, ++, OK): Used for configuring operating modes and delay times.
• Power Input Terminals: For connecting the DC 6.5-25V or DC 5V working power supply. Labeled VIN, GND.
• Control Input Terminals: For FWD (Forward), REV (Reverse), and STOP signals.
• Motor Output Terminals: For connecting the motor power (M+, M-) and motor (P+, P-).
• Relleus: Two blue relays are visible, responsible for switching motor direction.

5. Configuració i cablejat

Proper wiring is essential for the safe and correct operation of the motor controller. Ensure all power is disconnected before making any connections.

Figure 4: Wiring diagrams for the motor controller board, showing connections for working power and motor power.

1. Working Power Supply Connection:
   • Connect your DC 6.5-25V power supply to the VIN and GND terminals on the board.
   • Alternatively, connect a DC 5V power supply to the dedicated 5V input terminals. Do not connect both power supplies simultaneously.
2. Motor Power Supply Connection:
   • Connect your motor's power source (DC 1-110V or AC 85-265V) to the P+ and P- terminals. Ensure correct polarity for DC.
3. Connexió del motor:
   • Connect your DC motor to the M+ and M- terminals.
4. Control Signal Connections (Optional):
   • Connect external control signals to the FWD (Forward), REV (Reverse), and STOP terminals as required by your application. These inputs typically respond to low-pulse or low-level triggers.

Caution: Incorrect wiring can damage the board or connected components. Always double-check connections before applying power.

6. Instruccions de funcionament

The controller offers various modes and programmable delay settings. The digital display shows the current mode or time value, and the SET, ++, and OK buttons are used for configuration.

6.1 Modes d'activació

The board supports two primary input trigger modes:

• Low-Pulse Trigger (Falling Edge): The controller reacts to a momentary transition from high to low voltage on the control input.
• Low-Level Trigger (Rising Edge): The controller reacts to a sustained low voltage level on the control input.

Refer to the product documentation or specific mode settings for how to select between these trigger types.

6.2 Control Ports

The three control ports allow for external command of motor direction and state:

• AVANÇ (Endavant): Activates the motor in the forward direction.
• REV (Marxa enrere): Activates the motor in the reverse direction.
• STOP: Halts the motor operation.

6.3 Configuració dels temps de retard

The controller allows for programming delay times in three ranges: 0.1-0.9 seconds, 1-9 seconds, and 1-9 minutes. The exact programming steps may vary depending on the specific firmware version. Generally, the process involves:

1. Prement el SET botó per entrar al mode de programació.
2. Utilitzant el ++ button to adjust the time value or select a parameter.
3. Prement el OK button to confirm the selection or save the setting.

Consult the specific mode diagrams or a detailed programming guide for your module to understand the sequence for setting each parameter and delay range.

7. Manteniment

To ensure the longevity and reliable operation of your Walfront Motor Forward/Reverse Controller, follow these general maintenance guidelines:

• Neteja: Keep the board clean and free from dust, dirt, and moisture. Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the surface. Avoid using liquid cleaners or solvents.
• Emmagatzematge: Store the controller in a dry, cool environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Connexions: Comproveu periòdicament totes les connexions del cablejat per assegurar-vos que estiguin ben fixades i sense corrosió. Les connexions soltes poden provocar un funcionament intermitent o danys.
• Condicions ambientals: Operate the board within its specified temperature and humidity ranges to prevent damage.

8. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your motor controller, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Sense alimentació/Pantalla apagada:
  • Verify that the power supply is connected correctly to the VIN/GND or 5V terminals.
  • Assegureu-vos que la font d'alimentació voltage is within the specified range (DC 6.5-25V or DC 5V).
  • Check for any loose wires or damaged power cables.
• El motor no respon:
  • Confirm that the motor is correctly wired to the M+ and M- terminals.
  • Check the motor's power supply connection (P+, P-) and ensure it is providing the correct voltage (DC 1-110V or AC 85-265V).
  • Verify that the control signals (FWD, REV, STOP) are being applied correctly according to the selected trigger mode.
  • Ensure the relay is clicking, indicating it is attempting to switch.
• Direcció incorrecta del motor:
  • Check the motor wiring to M+ and M-. Swapping these connections will reverse the motor's default direction.
  • Ensure the FWD and REV control signals are being applied as intended.
• Problemes de temps:
  • Re-enter the programming mode and verify that the delay time settings are configured as desired.
  • Ensure the correct time unit (seconds, minutes) is selected if applicable.

If problems persist after following these steps, contact customer support for further assistance.
