5.1 Parameterizing the 3RW55 soft starter
Operating principle
You can parameterize the 3RW55 soft starter in the following ways:
● 3RW5 HMI High Feature
● SIRIUS Soft Starter ES (TIA Portal) via the local interface on the 3RW5 HMI High Feature
● SIRIUS Soft Starter ES (TIA Portal) Premium via fieldbus (3RW5 communication module
required)
● Configuration software of the controller on PC / PG
In the following example procedure the 3RW55 soft starter is parameterized with a 3RW5
HMI High-Feature in parameter set 1.
To use additional parameter sets, e.g. in order to start applications with different load
conditions (e.g. conveyor belt full and conveyor belt empty), you can define the parameter
sets 2 and 3 in the menu "Number of parameter sets (Page 133)".
As soon as more than one parameter set is activated, the relevant parameter sets appear in
the menu of the 3RW5 HMI High-Feature. To set the parameter sets 2 and 3, proceed as
described below. In the factory setting, parameter set 1 is active.
Application wizard
To enable simple commissioning the 3RW5 HMI High Feature supports various applications
with an application wizard. In the menu, navigate to "Parameters > Soft Starter > Application
wizard". For more information, see Chapter Application wizard (Page 76).
Requirements
● The 3RW55 soft starter is mounted and connected.
● Rated control voltage and rated operational voltage have been applied.
● 3RW5 HMI High Feature is connected and ready for operation.
Note
Tips for parameterizing the 3RW55 soft starter.
Entering the motor and load data in the STS software (Page 19) will simulate the application
and a suitable soft starter will be suggested. In addition, information regarding
parameterization is also provided.
