Configuration of one or more motors
If two E-POD motors are installed, only the port E-POD motor needs
to be configured.
Only work on the system when the motor is stopped and the
electrical system is switched off.
• Remove the E-POD cover.
• Locate the CAN bus connector on the MCVB.

• In a propulsion system with two E-POD motors, only cut the red
wire of the port side motor.
• Make sure that both ends cannot make contact. For example, use
an insulated cable end sleeve.
• Replace the cover.
The direction of rotation of the motor can be set on the
control panel.

nected.
The CAN bus power supply must always be connected to
12 Volt (≥10 V, ≤16 V). Use the E-Drive MPE1KB key switch as
power supply.
As required by international standards, all neutral (negative)
conductors of the DC system must be connected to one
central point. This prevents not only dangerous situations and
corrosion problems, but also error messages in the CAN bus
system.
4.10 Final installation check
Check for possible leakage immediately after the ship has
been launched.
After the installation of the system, before commissioning,
check the following points:
- All cable connections, bolts, nuts and swivels.
- The correct operation of all panels.
