10.7 Two-speed motor

The Digistart IS can be configured for control of dual speed Dahlander type motors, using a high speed contactor (KM1), low speed
contactor (KM2) and a star contactor (KM3).
Pole Amplitude Modulated (PAM) motors alter the speed by effectively changing the stator frequency using external
NOTE
winding configuration. Soft starters are not suitable for use with this type of two-speed motor.
When the soft starter receives a high speed start signal, it closes the high speed contactor (KM1) and star contactor (KM3), then
controls the motor according to the primary motor settings.
When the soft starter receives a low speed start signal, it closes the low speed contactor (KM2). This closes Input A and the
Digistart IS controls the motor according to the secondary motor settings.

Contactors KM2 and KM3 must be mechanically interlocked.
NOTE
Parameter settings:
 Pr 3A Input A Function (terminals DI4, +24V)
 Select 'Motor Set Select' - assigns Input A for Motor set selection.
 Set high speed performance characteristics using the primary motor settings.
 Set low speed performance characteristics using the secondary motor settings.
 Pr 4G Relay C Action
 Select 'Trip' - assigns Trip function to Relay Output C
If the Digistart IS trips on supply frequency (Pr 16H Frequency) when the high-speed start signal (9) is removed, modify
NOTE
the frequency protection settings.
