Simulation Tools

Software simulation functions let you test the soft starter's operation and control circuits without connecting the soft starter to
mains voltage.
The simulation tools are accessed via the Commissioning Menu. The simulations are only available when the soft starter is in
Ready state, control voltage is available and the controller is active.
NOTE
Access to the simulation tools is protected by the security access code.
The default access code is 0000.
Run Simulation
To use the run simulation:
1.
Open the Commissioning Menu.
2.
Scroll to Run Simulation and press
3.
Press START or activate the start input. The MVE simulates its pre-start checks
and closes the main contactor relay. The Run LED flashes.
NOTE
If mains voltage is connected, an error message is shown. Remove mains
voltage and proceed to the next step.
4.
Press
. The MVE simulates starting. The Run LED flashes.
5.
Press
. The MVE simulates running. The Run LED stays on without flashing
and the bypass contactor relay closes.
6.
Press STOP or activate the stop input. The MVE simulates stopping. The Run LED
flashes and the bypass contactor relay opens.
7.
Press
. The Ready LED flashes and the main contactor relay opens.
8.
Press
to return to the commissioning menu.
NOTE
Run simulation can be exited at any stage by pressing the
.
Protection Simulation
The protection simulation simulates activation of each protection mechanism to confirm that the soft starter and associated
control circuits are responding correctly.
To use the protection simulation:
1.
Open the Commissioning Menu.
2.
Scroll to Protection Simulation and press
3.
Use the
and
buttons to select the protection you want to simulate.
4.
Press and hold
to simulate the selected protection.
5.
The screen is displayed momentarily. The soft starter's response depends on the
Protection Action setting (parameter group 16).
6.
Use
