General Safety In Operation - ABB ACS580-07 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 power up the drive more than five times in ten minutes. Too frequent power-ups
can damage the charging circuit of the DC capacitors. If you need to start or stop the
drive, use the control panel start and stop keys or commands through the I/O terminals
of the drive.
• 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.
