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
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 or to select another simulation, or press
NOTE
If the protection trips the soft starter, reset before simulating another protection. If the protection action
is set to 'Warn and Log', no reset is required.
If the protection is set to 'Warn and Log', the warning message can be viewed only while the
pressed.
If the protection is set to 'Log only', nothing appears on the screen but an entry will appear in the log.
Output Signal Simulation
The output signal simulation simulates output signalling to confirm that outputs and associated control circuits are
operating correctly.
NOTE
To test operation of the flags (motor temperature and low/high current), set an output relay to the
appropriate function and monitor the relay's behaviour.
To use the output signal simulation:
1. Open the Commissioning Menu.
2. Scroll to Output Signalling Simulation and press
3. Use the and
press .
4. Use the and
To confirm correct operation, monitor the state of the output.
5. Press to return to the simulation list.
Analog Output Simulation
The analog output simulation uses the
analog output current at terminals B10, B11 of the controller.
Attach an external current measuring device to terminals B10, B11 of the controller. Use the
adjust the percentage value in the lower left hand corner of the display. The current measuring device should indicate
the same level of current as shown at the lower right corner of the display.
