Caution Statements

Section 1 Caution Statements

The use of this symbol in this manual reminds the reader to pay special attention to special precautions regarding the
installation and operation of the equipment.
Caution Statements cannot cover every potential cause of equipment damage but can highlight common causes of damage.
It is the installer's responsibility to read and understand all instructions in this manual prior to installing,operating or maintaining
the soft starter, to follow good electrical practice including applying appropriate personal protective equipment and to seek advice
before operating this equipment in a manner other than as described in this manual.
NOTE
The user cannot repair the soft starter. The soft starter should only be repaired by authorized service
personnel. Unauthorized modification of the starter will void the product warranty.

1.1 Electrical Shock Risk


The voltages present in the following locations can cause severe electric shock and may be lethal:
● AC supply cables and connections
● Output cables and connections
● Many internal parts of the starter, and external option units
The AC supply must be disconnected from the starter using an approved isolation device before any cover is removed from the
starter or before any servicing work is performed.

WARNING DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK


132kW and above: As long as the power supply voltage is connected (including when the starter trips or waits for a
command), the bus and radiator must be regarded as charged.

SHORT CIRCUIT
It cannot prevent short circuit. After severe overload or short circuit occurs, the operation of soft start should be fully
tested by an authorized service agent.

GROUNDING AND BRANCH CIRCUIT PROTECTION


It is the responsibility of the user or person installing the soft starter to provide proper grounding and branch circuit
protection according to local electrical safety codes.

FOR YOUR SAFETY


● The STOP function of the soft starter does not isolate dangerous voltages from the output of the starter.
The soft starter must be disconnected by an approved electrical isolation device before accessing electrical connections.
● Soft starter protection features apply to motor protection only. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure safety of
personnel operating machinery.
● In some installations, accidental starts may pose an increased risk to safety of personnel or damage to the machines
being driven. In such cases, it is recommended that the power supply to the soft starter is fitted with an isolating
switch and a circuit-breaking device (eg power contactor) controllable through an external safety system
(eg emergency stop, fault detector).
● The soft starter has built-in protections which can trip the starter in the event of faults and thus stop the motor.
Voltage fluctuations, power cuts and motor jams may also cause the motor to trip.
● There is a possibility of the motor restarting after the causes of shutdown are rectified, which may be dangerous for
certain machines or installations. In such cases, it is essential that appropriate arrangements are made against
restarting after unscheduled stops of the motor.
● The soft starter is a component designed for integration within an electrical system; it is therefore the responsibility
of the system designer/user to ensure the system is safe and designed to comply with relevant local safety standards.
AuCom cannot be held accountable for any damages incurred if the above recommendations are not
complied with.
AUTO- - START
Use the auto-start feature with caution. Read all the notes related to auto-start before operation.
The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes. The information contained
in this manual is subject to change at any time and without prior notice. In no event will responsibility or liability be
accepted for direct, indirect or consequential damages resulting from the use or application of this equipment.

8.1 Command Priority


The starter disable command takes precedence over any other control command, see parameter 6A Input A Function P43
The emergency run command gives priority to normal control commands, including the auto start/auto stop command,
see parameter 15C Emergency Run on P52.
The auto start/auto stop command takes precedence over the normal control command (local, remote, or via serial
communication). See also 3 Auto Start/Stop P39.

8.2 Start, Stop and Reset Commands


There are three ways to control the soft starter
1. Using the buttons on the control panel
2. Input via remote control
3. Connect via serial communication
The L/R (local/remote) button controls whether the soft starter responds to local control (via the operator panel) or remote
control (via remote input).
When the soft starter is in local control mode, the local LED on the control panel illuminates.
When the soft starter is in remote control mode, the local LED is off.
Control via serial communication network is always enabled in local control mode, enabling or disabling via serial
communication network control (parameter 6R remote communication) in remote control mode, optional communication is
required for control over serial communication networks Module.

Always enable the STOP button on the control panel.


Control the motor with a soft starter
To soft start the motor, press the start button on the operator panel or activate the start remote input. The motor will start using
the starting mode selected in parameter 2A.
To soft stop the motor, press the st0p button on the operator panel, or activate stop remote input. The motor will stop in the stop
mode selected in parameter 21h1.
To reset the soft starter trip, press the ESET button on the operator panel. Or activate reset remote input.
To allow the motor to coast to a stop regardless of the setting in parameter 2H stop mode, press the local stop and reset buttons
simultaneously.
The soft starter will disconnect the power supply of the motor and open the main contactor to stop the motor sliding.

Auto start / auto stop


The soft starter can also be configured to start or stop automatically. The auto start / auto stop operation can only be used in
remote mode. In local mode,
The starter will ignore all auto start / auto stop settings. To configure the auto start / auto stop operation, use parameter 3A ~3D.

8.3 soft start method


Soft starters provide a variety of ways to control motor starting. Each soft start method uses different main control parameters.

Soft start method Controlled parameter Performance parameters affected


Timing voltage ramp Voltage Starting current, starting torque, acceleration
Constant current Electric current Starting torque, acceleration
Torque control torque Starting current, accelerating
Adaptive control accelerate Starting current, starting torque

The best effect can be achieved by selecting the soft start method which can directly control the most important application
parameters. Soft starters are usually used to limit motor starting current or to control load acceleration and / or deceleration.
The soft starter can be set to constant current or adaptive control.

Control Use
Motor Starting Current Constant Current
Motor / Load Acceleration Adaptive Control

19
Operation
Constant current
Constant current is the traditional soft start mode, which increases the current from zero to the specified current, and then
remains unchanged until the motor accelerates.
Constant current starting is suitable for applications where the starting current must be controlled below a certain level.

Current slope
The current ramp soft start increases the current from the specified starting current (1) to the maximum limit (3)
within the extended period (2).
Current ramp starting can be used for the following applications:
● the load for each start is different (e.g. conveyor belt for heavy load start or no load start).
Set the initial current (parameter 2C) to the light load starting current of the motor, and
The current limit (parameter 2D) is set to the motor heavy load starting current.
● the load is easy to unload, but the starting time must be extended (e.g. centrifugal pumps that need to slowly build up line pressure).
Limited power supplies (e.g. generator sets) and slow load loading allow more time for the power supply to respond.

Adaptive start control
In the soft start mode of adaptive control, the soft starter will adjust the current so that the motor can start with the selected
acceleration curve within a specified time.
Look out
The speed of adaptive control starting motor can not be faster than that of direct starting mode.
If the starting ramp time (parameter 2b) is shorter than the direct starting time of the motor, the starting
current may reach the direct starting current level.
Each application has a specific starting curve based on load characteristics and motor characteristics. Adaptive control provides
three different starting curves, which can meet different application requirements. The selection of the curve matching with the
application of the inherent curve will help to make the acceleration process smooth in the whole starting time.
If the adaptive control curve with great difference is selected, the control effect of the inherent curve will be greatly affected.
The soft starter monitors the motor performance every time it starts the motor, so as to improve the soft start control in the future.

● adaptive control
Using adaptive control to control the starting performance:
1. Select adaptive control (parameter 2a) on the start mode menu
2. Set the desired starting ramp time (parameter 2b)
3. Select the desired adaptive starting curve (parameter 2e)
4. Set the starting current limit (parameter 2D) large enough to start successfully. The first adaptive control start is constant
current start. In this way, the soft starter can understand the characteristics of the connected motor. In the subsequent adaptive
control starting process, the soft starter uses this motor data.

Be careful
Adaptive control controls the load according to the programmed curve. The starting current varies with the selected
acceleration curve and the set starting time. .
If a motor connected to a soft starter programmed with adaptive control to start or stop is replaced, or the starter is
tested on a different motor before it is actually installed, the starter must learn the characteristics of the new motor.
If parameter 1A motor rated current or parameter 2K adaptive control gain is changed, the motor characteristics
will be understood again automatically.

How to select the starting curve of adaptive control


The best curve depends on the exact details of each application.
Some loads such as submersible pumps should not be operated at low speed. The early acceleration curve increases the
speed rapidly in the starting process, and then controls the acceleration in the remaining starting time.

Look out
Adaptive control can control the speed curve of the motor in the programmed time range.
This may result in a larger current than traditional control methods.

● fine tuning adaptive control


If the motor starts or stops unevenly, adjust the adaptive control gain (parameter 2K). The gain setting determines how
much gain the soft starter will adjust at the next adaptive control start and stop based on the information from the last
start. The gain setting affects both starting and stopping performance.
● If the motor accelerates rapidly at the end of starting or decelerates rapidly at the end of stopping,
increase the gain setting by 5% 10%.
● If the motor speed fluctuates during start or stop, slightly decrease the gain setting.
Be careful
Reset the adaptive control learning record of the starter when changing the gain setting. After changing the gain,
start with a constant current for the first time.

Jump start
Jump start provides additional torque for a short time at the start of starting, which can be used with current ramp starting or
constant current starting.
Jump starting helps to start loads that require a minimum starting torque but are easy to accelerate later
(e.g. flywheel loads such as calenders).

8.4 Stop Method


The soft starter provides a variety of ways to control the motor stop.
Stopping method Performance results
Taxi stop Natural load stop
TVR soft stop Extend stop time
adaptive control Extend the stop time according to the selected deceleration curve
braking Reduce stop time
Soft starters are commonly used in pumping applications to eliminate the destructive effect of water hammer. Adaptive control
should be the preferred stop method for these applications.
Taxi stop
The sliding stop makes the motor slow down at the natural speed and is not controlled by the soft starter. The time required to
stop depends on the type of load.

Timing voltage ramp soft stop


The timing voltage ramp gradually reduces the motor voltage over a specified period of time. After stopping the ramp,
the load may continue to run.
Timed voltage ramp stop can be used for applications requiring extended stop times or to avoid transient power supply
of the generator set. 1

Adaptive stop control
In the soft stop mode of adaptive control, the soft starter controls the current to make the motor stop using the selected
deceleration curve within the specified time. Adaptive control can be used to extend the stop time of low inertia load.
Each application has a specific stop curve based on load characteristics and motor characteristics. Adaptive control provides
three different stop curves. Select the adaptive control curve that can best meet the application requirements.

Be careful
The adaptive control does not let the motor decelerate rapidly, and the motor stop speed is not faster than the sliding
stop. To shorten the stop time of the large inertia load, use the brake operation.

Look out
Adaptive control can control the speed curve of the motor in the programmed time range. This may result in a larger
current than traditional control methods.
adaptive control
Use adaptive control to control stop performance:
1. Select adaptive control (parameter 2H) on the stop mode menu

Operation
The first adaptive control stop is the normal soft stop. In this way, the soft starter can understand the characteristics of the
connected motor. This motor data is used by the soft starter during subsequent adaptive control stops.
Be careful
Adaptive control controls the load according to the programmed curve. The stop current varies with the selected
deceleration curve and stop time.
If a motor connected to a soft starter programmed with adaptive control to start or stop is replaced, or the starter is tested
on a different motor before it is actually installed, the starter must learn the characteristics of the new motor. If parameter
1A motor rated current or parameter 2K adaptive control gain is changed, the soft starter automatically re understands the
motor characteristics.
Pump stop
The hydraulic characteristics of pumping system are quite different. This difference means that different deceleration
curves and stop times are used for different applications. The following table provides the selection principles for the
adaptive control deceleration curve, but we recommend that you test three curves to determine the best curve for the
application.
Adaptive stop curve Application
After deceleration Even if the motor / water pump speed decreases a little, it will lead to a high head system with fast
switching of forward flow and reverse flow.
Constant deceleration The application of medium and low head and large flow with large liquid momentum.
Early deceleration An open pumping system in which the liquid must return through the pump but the pump does not reverse.

Braking
Braking can shorten the motor stop time.
During braking, the motor can be heard to make more noise. This is a normal motor braking phenomenon.
After selecting the brake, the soft starter will use dc injection method to slow down the motor.
Soft starter brake:
● DC braking contactor is not required.
● control all three phases to evenly distribute the braking current and corresponding heating in the motor.
Look out
If the braking torque is set too high, the motor stops before the end of the braking time, and the motor generates
too much heat, which may cause motor damage. Brake torque must be carefully configured to ensure safe
operation of the starter and motor.
When the motor stops, the peak current of the direct starting motor will appear due to too much braking torque
setting. Make sure that the fuse installed in the branch circuit of the motor is correctly selected.

Look out
The brake operation makes the heating speed of the motor faster than that calculated by the thermal protection
model of the motor.
If brake operation is used, install a motor thermistor or set a restart delay long enough (parameter 4m).
Braking is divided into two stages:
● pre braking: moderate braking to reduce the motor speed to the point where full braking can be successfully carried out
(about 70% of the speed).
● full braking: provide the maximum braking torque, but the effect is not good when the speed exceeds about 70%.
Equipped with soft starter for braking operation:
1. Set the desired stop time length (1) for parameter 2I. This is the total braking time, which must be set to be more than the
braking time (parameter 2m)For a long time, in order to reduce the motor speed to about 70% before braking. If the stop
time is too short and the motor fails to brake successfully, the motor will Taxi stop.
2. Set the braking time (parameter 2m) to about a quarter of the programmed stop time. This is the time of the full braking period (2).
3. Adjust the braking torque (parameter 2L) to achieve the desired stopping performance. If the setting is too small, the motor
can not stop stably, but will be closed during the braking period After bunching, taxiing stops.

Operation
Be careful
When using DC braking, the power supply and soft starter (input terminals L1, L2, L3) must be connected in
positive phase sequence, and the parameter 4G phase sequence must be set to positive.
Be careful
If the load may change during braking, install a zero speed sensor to ensure that the soft starter stops DC braking
when the motor stops.
This can avoid unnecessary heating of the motor.
For details on how to use a soft starter with an external speed sensor (for example, in applications where the load
changes during braking), see DC braking with an external zero speed sensor on page 57.

8.5 Jog Operation


Jog to slow down the motor in order to adjust the load or assist in maintenance. The motor can either jog forward or jog reverse.

Look out
Low speed operation makes the cooling effect of motor decrease, so it is not suitable for continuous
operation mode.

Inching operation makes the heating speed of the motor faster than that calculated by the thermal
protection model of the motor. If inching operation is used, install - a motor thermistor, or set a restart
delay long enough (parameter 4m).

Be careful
Soft start and soft stop cannot be used during inching operation.
Inching is only applicable to group motor. For a detailed understanding of the -- group motor settings and
the second group motor settings, refer to the second group motor settings.
For different motor models, the maximum forward inching torque is about 50% - 75% of the rated torque
(FLT). The torque of motor reverse inching is about 25% to 50% of rated torque.
Valuepoint 15E the ratio of the torque applied to the motor by the inching torque control to the maximum
inching torque of the soft starter.

Be careful
If parameter 15E is set above 50%, shaft vibration may be increased.

To stop the jog operation, do one of the following:


Cancel the jog command.
Press the stop button on the operator panel.

If the jog command is still valid, start the jog again after the end of the restart delay. During the jog operation, all commands
except the above are ignored.

Operation

8.6 Working With Triangle Connection Method

The triangle (six wire) connection method does not support adaptive control, inching, braking and two-phase control functions.
If these functions are programmed when the starter is connected by the triangle connection method, the control characteristics
are as follows:

Adaptive control start The starter performs a constant current start. .


If the stop time of parameter 2I is set to be greater than 0 s, the starter will perform the soft stop of
Adaptive control stop timing voltage ramp.
If parameter 2I is set to 0 seconds, the starter performs a coast down stop.
Point movement Starter alarm with error message: option not supported.
Braking The starter performs a coastdown stop.
Two phase control The starter trips and displays the error message: LX TX short circuit.

Be careful
If the triangle connection method is adopted, the current unbalance protection is the only phase loss protection during
operation. Do not disable the current unbalance protection (parameter 4h) when the delta connection method is used.

Be careful
If delta connection method is adopted, input the rated current of motor with parameter 1A. The soft starter automatically
detects whether the motor is connected by the star connection method or the triangle connection method, and calculates
the correct current of the triangle connection.

9.8 parameter description

1 motor data 1
The parameters in motor data 1 are used to configure the soft starter to match the connected motor. These parameters describe
the operation characteristics of the motor, so that the soft starter can establish the temperature model of the motor.

Be careful
If delta connection method is adopted, input the rated current of motor with parameter 1a. The soft
starter automatically detects whether the motor is connected by the star connection method or the
triangle connection method, and calculates the correct current of the triangle connection.
1A - rated current of motor
Range: Depending on Model
Explain: Match the starter to the rated current of the connected motor. Set the rated current indicated
on the motor label.
1B — locked rotor time
0:01-2:00(minutes: seconds) Default: 10 seconds

3 Auto start / stop


The soft starter can be programmed to start and stop automatically after a specified delay or at a specified time of day.
Automatic start and automatic stop can be set separately.
The auto start / auto stop operation can only be used in remote mode. In local mode, the starter will ignore all auto
start / auto stop settings.

Look out.
The auto start timer covers all other controls. The motor may start without warning.

warning
This function should not be used with a two wire remote control.
The soft starter still receives start and stop commands from the remote input or serial communication
network. To disable local control or remote control, use parameter 6q.
If auto start is enabled, but the user is still in the menu system, activate auto start after menu timeout
(no operation board activity is detected within 5 minutes).

4 Protection settings
These parameters determine when to activate the protection mechanism of the soft starter. The activation point of
each protection mechanism can be set according to the needs of the device.
The soft starter responds to the protection event by tripping, warning or writing the event to the event log.
The setting of protection measures (parameter setting 16 protection measures) determines the response.
The default response is trip. .

Look out
The protection setting is very important for the safety of soft starter and motor.
The cancellation of the protection mechanism may endanger the safety of the equipment
and should only be used in case of emergency.
4A 4B—Starting limit time
The starting limit time is the maximum time required for the soft starter to try to start the motor. If the
motor does not transition to operating mode within the programmed limits, the starter trips. Set a time that
is slightly longer than the normal start-up time. A setting of 0 disables the start limit time protection.

Range: 0:00 - 4:00 (minutes: seconds) Default: 20 seconds

If you want to use the soft starter with two different motors (such as working / standby configuration),
use parameter 9A to select the dual thermal protection model and configure parameters 9B ~ 9E according
to the second motor.
To use a soft starter with two sets of different motor data for the same motor (two-speed motors or
applications with varying starting conditions), use parameter 9A to select the single thermal protection
model, and use parameters 10A to 10G to configure the start and stop curves as required . The soft starter
will ignore parameters 9B ~ 9E and will use the settings of the main motor.
To select the second set of motor data, a programmable input must be configured as a parameter setting
selection (parameters 6A and 6F). This input must be activated when the soft starter receives a start signal.
Attention
Only when the soft starter is stopped, which set of motor data can be selected.

Explain: Select whether the soft starter allows emergency operation. In emergency running mode,
the soft starter starts (if not already running) and continues to work until the end of
emergency running, ignoring stop commands and trips. Emergency operation is controlled
by programmable parameters.
Attention
It is not recommended to use emergency operation continuously. Emergency operation may damage the
life of the starter because all protections and trips are disabled.
Using the starter in emergency operation mode will void the product warranty.
15D—Short-circuit thyristor action
Options: Three-phase control only (default)
Two-phase control
Explain: Select whether the soft starter allows two-phase control. For critical applications, if one
phase of the soft starter is damaged, the soft starter is allowed to use two-phase control
to control the motor. Two-phase control can only be used after the soft starter has tripped
and reset due to "Lx-Tx short circuit".
Attention
Two-phase control can adopt two-phase soft-start technology, so special care must be taken when
determining the specifications of the circuit breaker and protection. Contact your local supplier
for assistance.
Attention
Only motors connected by star connection support two-phase control. If the soft starter is connected
using a delta connection method, two-phase control does not work.
The next time the control power is applied, the starter will trip due to an Lx-Tx short circuit. If the control
power is turned on again between two starts, the two-phase control does not work.
15E—Jogging torque

Explain: Set the jog operation current limit.
16 Protective measures
These parameters define how the soft starter responds to different protection events. The soft starter can trip, issue a
warning or ignore different protection events as needed.
Writes all protection events to the event log. The default action for all protections is to trip the soft starter.
16N ground fault protection and 16P ~ 16U RTD / PT100 protection can only be used after installing the RTD / PT100
and ground fault protection card.
Attention
The removal of the protection mechanism may endanger the safety of the starter and the motor and should

● Parameter 6B enter A name
Select a name, such as "Low Voltage". Specify a name for the input A.
● Parameter 6C input A trip
Set as required. For example, the "Only Run" limit input trip is valid only when the soft starter is running.
● Parameter 6D input A trip delay
Set as required. Set the delay from input activation until the soft starter trips.
● Parameter 6E input A initial delay
Set it to about 120 seconds. Limit the input trip to 120 seconds after the start signal. This way, the pipeline has enough time to
increase the water pressure before activating the low pressure input.

52
Application example
10.5 DC Braking With External Zero Speed Sensor
If the load may change during braking, the advantage of using an external zero speed sensor is that the soft starter brake can be
turned off. This control method ensures that the soft starter brake is always turned off after the motor is stationary, thereby
avoiding unnecessary motor heating.
The following schematic shows how to use the zero speed sensor with a soft starter to turn off the braking function when the
motor is stopped. The zero speed sensor (A2) is often called the underspeed detector. Its internal contacts open at zero speed
and close when the speed is greater than zero. When the motor reaches the stop state, C53, C54 will be disconnected and the
starter will be disabled. After the next start command is issued (ie the next application of Ka1), C53, C54 are closed and the
soft starter is enabled.
The soft starter must work in remote mode. Parameter 6A input A function must be set to disable the starter.
Attention
If the braking torque is set too large, the motor will stop before the braking time is over, and the motor
generates excessive heat, which may cause damage to the motor. The braking torque must be carefully
configured to ensure the safe operation of the starter and motor.
Setting the braking torque too large will cause the peak current to start directly when the motor is stopped.
Make sure that the fuses installed in the motor branch circuit are correctly selected.
Attention
The braking operation caused the motor to heat faster than the speed calculated using the motor thermal
protection model. If using brake operation, install a motor thermistor or set a sufficiently long restart
delay (parameter 4M).

For details on how to configure DC braking, see Braking on page 27.


Be careful
When using DC braking, the power supply and the soft starter (input terminals L1, L2, L3) must be
connected in positive phase sequence, and the parameter is 4G.
The phase sequence must be set to forward.
Be careful
If the braking torque is set too large, the motor will stop before the braking time is over, and the motor
generates excessive heat, which may cause damage to the motor. The braking torque must be carefully
configured to ensure the safe operation of the starter and motor.
Setting the braking torque too large will cause the peak current to start directly when the motor is stopped.
Ensure that the fuses installed in the motor branch circuit are selected correctly

Application example
10.6 Soft Braking
For large inertia load applications and / or variable load applications, a soft starter can be configured for soft braking.
In this application, soft starters are used with forward and brake contactors. When the soft starter receives the start signal (button
S1), close the forward rotation
Contactor (KM1), set control motor according to the programmed group motor.
When the soft starter receives the stop signal (button S2), open the forward contactor (KM1), and close the brake contactor (KM2)
after a delay of about 2-3 seconds (kt1).
The KA3 is also closed to activate the second set of motor settings programmed by the user for the desired stop performance
characteristics.
When the motor speed is close to zero, the zero speed sensor (A2) stops the soft starter and disconnects the brake contactor (KM2).

Application example

10.7 Two-speed Motor

High-speed contactor (Km1), low-speed contactor (KM2) and star contactor (KM3) can be used, and a soft starter
can be configured for two-speed Dahlander motor control.
Be careful
Pole amplitude modulation (PAM) motors use external winding configuration to effectively change the
rotor frequency, thus changing the speed. Soft starters are not suitable for use with such two speed motors.

When the soft starter receives the high-speed start signal, close the high-speed contactor (KM1) and star contactor (Km3), and
then set the control motor according to the first group of motors.
When the soft starter receives the low speed start signal, close the low speed contactor (km2). Input a is closed and the soft starter
sets the control motor according to the second set of motors.

1. Configure the soft starter as follows:
Parameter setting: parameter 7d relay B function
Select 'change over contactor'
● parameter 7e relay B open delay
Set this parameter to the maximum time (5 minutes: 00 seconds).
● parameter 12a motor data 1 ramp
Select 'double slope' (for slip ring induction motor control)
● parameter 12C conversion time
The default setting is 150 milliseconds. Set this value to a value greater than the phase closing time of the
change-over contactor (KM1).
● valuepoint 12D slip ring reduction
The default setting is 50%. Set this parameter large enough to allow the motor to accelerate immediately
after the rotor resistance (R1) is bypassed, if set Small enough to avoid motor current pulse.
2. Start the motor under normal load and record the time required for the motor to reach a constant speed when the circuit has
external rotor resistance (R1).
Stop the motor as soon as it reaches a constant speed. Change parameter 7e to the recorded time value.

56
Application example

3. Start the motor under normal load conditions and monitor the speed characteristics and motor current of the motor after the
switching contactor (KM1) is switched and the stator resistance (R1) is shorted.
If the motor does not accelerate immediately after the conversion, increase the setting of parameter 12D.
If the motor current changes abruptly after the conversion, the setting of parameter 12D needs to be reduced.

Fault Resolution

11.1 Protection Response


Chapter 11 Fault Resolution
When a protection condition is detected, the soft starter writes the protection condition to the event log. It may trip and may
issue a warning. The soft starter response depends on the protective measures setting (parameter setting 16).
The user cannot adjust one or more of the protection responses. These trips are usually caused by external events (such as
phase loss), or they may be caused by internal faults of the soft starter. These trips have no related parameters and cannot be
set as warnings or logs.
If the soft starter trips, you need to identify and clear the conditions that triggered the trip, reset the soft starter, and then
restart. To reset the starter, press the RESET button on the control panel-or activate the "Reset remote input".
If the soft starter alarms, the soft starter will reset automatically after the cause of the alarm is eliminated.

11.2 Trip Message


The following table lists the protection mechanisms and possible trip causes of the soft starter. Some settings can be
