2.1.4. Avoid Unintended Start
While FC 300 is connected to mains, the motor can be started/stopped using digital commands, bus commands, references or via the Local Control Panel
(LCP).
•
Disconnect the FC 300 from mains whenever personal safety considerations make it necessary to avoid unintended start.
•
To avoid unintended start, always activate the [OFF] key before changing parameters.
•
An electronic fault, temporary overload, a fault in the mains supply, or lost motor connection may cause a stopped motor to start. FC 300 with
Safe Stop (i.e. FC 301 in A1 enclosure and FC 302) provides protection against unintended start, if the Safe Stop Terminal 37 is on low voltage
level or disconnected.
