TESTING & TECHNICAL DATA
Fan/Motor Compatibility: The AC-VX is compatible
with many PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) and shaded
pole motors. The AC-VX is not compatible with capacitor
start motors. Confirm TRIAC controllability with the
motor manufacturer before installation. Attempting
to control a motor that is not compatible could
cause excessive heating and could permanently
damage the motor.
Voltage Loss:
For a typical fan, expect a voltage drop
to the fan of about 4-10% at full voltage.
Changing Control Settings: The AC-VX will not
recognize any changes in jumper settings made with
power applied. Power must be turned OFF before
changing any jumper settings.
Minimum Motor currents: Motors may not control
properly if the total current draw is less than 0.5 Amp.
Maximum Motor currents: Some motors draw higher
current at less than maximum voltage. Contact motor
manufacturer for details.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Output Always Measuring Full Voltage: (1) No motor
connected. AC-VX requires a minimum 0.50 Amp load.
(2) Wiring error bypassing AC-VX with “pigtailed” neutral
wires. (3) Wrong or faulty sensor. (4) Incorrect jumper
settings. (5) AC-VX damaged or defective.
Output always measuring zero volts: (1) No power to
the AC-VX. (2) Wiring error or broken power wire(s). (3)
Sensor/control signal is low or not connected. (4)
Incorrect jumper settings. (5) AC-VX damaged or
defective.
Output measuring wrong voltage: (1) wrong or faulty
sensor. (2) Incorrect jumper settings. (3) AC-VX
damaged or defective.
