Connect software and to access parameters and commands that cannot be accessed directly from the front
interface: a description of the various functions is given below.
The additional protections available via Ekip Connect are described on page 25.
• One year has passed since the last maintenance.
• Contact wear has increased by more than 10% compared with the value at the last maintenance.
Via Ekip Connect there are two selections available:
• Activation: it allows to the maintenance function to be activated.
• Reset: it allows confirmation of maintenance on the trip unit; the present date and contact wear values
are recorded, and the signal is reset.
The reference date is that of the internal clock, and the elapsed time is calculated both with the trip unit on
and off (provided that the internal battery is working).
NOTE: manual modification of the date can cause variations in the calculation of the time
elapsed, and therefore in the date of the next maintenance.
NOTE: the maintenance signal due to increased contact wear is active for values higher than
20 %.
10K modules, the Local Bus parameter must be enabled.
NOTE: communication with the modules is active if the auxiliary power supply is present.
Setting the date can be useful for some functions such as the recording of trips and minimum and maximum
currents, and maintenance.
The clock is active if the internal battery of the trip unit is working.
