1 General 1 General The SK 1x5E series is based on the tried and tested NORD platform. The devices are characterised by their compact design and their optimum operational characteristics, and have uniform parametrisation. Due to dual phase control, not only a pure motor start, but also a soft start is possible. The phase control process was selected so that the resulting harmonic torques are kept as low as possible.

The SK 1x5E can be easily adapted to a wide range of requirements by using function-enhancing modules for display, control and parametrisation. Optionally available control devices from NORD or the free "NORDCON" PC software can be used for targeted adaptation of individual parameters. The right-hand diagnostic connection must be opened to access the diagnostic interface.
3 Display, operation and options 3.1.1 Control and parametrisation units, use Access to the parameters of the SK 1x5E can take place either using the NORD CON software or with the aid of an optionally available SimpleBox or ParameterBox. Permanent parameter changes must be saved in the Flash memory of the device using parameter P550.
