Pro tip: Using the ACH580 as an example, use of DI5 and DI6 is typical, as those digital inputs are unassigned based
on factory default settings. If different digital inputs are chosen, then verify they do not have any other conflicting
functions assigned to them.

The 580 series drive can integrate easily with a pressure control switch that may be existing on a piece of equipment. The above steps
outline the procedure to configure the drive for this application. In lieu of using Primary settings, the drive parameters 22.71 through
22.80 can also be used to configure floating point control. Adding a drive to fixed speed equipment, thus allowing the equipment to
become variable speed, will result in significant energy savings.

command is removed or power is lost. Upon a new run command the drive will ramp to the last
reference point.
If the drive were cycled from AUTO, to HAND, and then back to AUTO mode, then the drive will

ramp to the last frequency it was running at in AUTO mode.
The benefit of this configuration is the drive remembers the last reference point, which is helpful

for installations that experience frequent power outages.
The drive does not remember the last reference point after a power cycle, and will start at a
o
reference of 0 after a power cycle.
If the drive was cycled from AUTO, to HAND, and then back to AUTO mode, then the drive will
o
maintain the HAND reference as the new AUTO reference point.
If the run command is removed from either AUTO or HAND mode, upon a new run command in
o
AUTO mode the last reference is used.
The benefit of this configuration is for installations that require frequent manual adjustments with
o
HAND mode, as the transition from HAND to AUTO is seamless.
