General Safety In Operation - ABB ACS380 Hardware Manual

General safety in operation

These instructions are for all personnel that operate the drive.
WARNING! Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or
damage to the equipment can occur.
• Do not control the motor with the disconnector at the drive power supply. Use the
control panel start and stop keys or the start/stop commands from an external
control device connected through the I/O or fieldbus interface.
• Give a stop command to the drive before you reset a fault. If you have an external
source for the start command and the start is on, the drive will start immediately
after the fault reset, unless you configure the drive for pulse start. See the
firmware manual.
• Before you activate automatic fault reset functions of the drive control program,
make sure that no dangerous situations can occur. These functions reset the
drive automatically and continue operation after a fault.
Note: When the control location is not set to Local, the stop key on the control panel
will not stop the drive.
