Description of the levels

Levels 1 and 2 are used to adjust and configure the basic product according to the application.

Level 3 is used for reconfiguring the basic product. This level is totally separate from levels 1 and 2.

Level 1 : Provides access to the basic parameters for starting and slowing down a motor for
simple applications.

Level 2 : Provides additional parameters to those of level 1. These additional parameters can be
accessed independently.

Level 3 : Used to reconfigure the basic product.

Example : reconfiguration of analog output AO1 from 0 - 20 mA to 4 - 20 mA.

tLS : Start time too long

Factory setting : oFF

This is used to compare the acceleration time, before changing to steady state, and a time
previously set (adjustable from 10 to 999 seconds) using tLS . This function is used to
check all the modifications of the drive mechanism (mechanical incident, dry friction). If the
time is exceeded, the starter changes to fault state StF .

E on Automatic reset
N
G The starter handles 3 types of fault. The automatic reset only concerns type 1 and type 2
L faults.
I
S Type 1 fault
H The option is reset by successive attempts every 60 s. If, after 6 attempts, the fault has not
disappeared, it can no longer be reset.

Type 2 fault
The option is reset when the fault disappears.

Type 3 fault
The option can only be reset when there is a run request.

The ArS function can only be used in a sequence with

2-wire control.

CLP : Torque control

Factory setting : on

When turned on starting uses the torque gradient mode.

Torque control is not offered for applications using motors connected in parallel on the
same starter or a motor whose power is very low in relation to the rating of the starter
(using an undersized motor for maintaining the product).
In the above cases the torque loop must be open CLP = oFF .
The motor is started and slowed down by varying the voltage.

the value of In by the formula ILt ≤ 500 x IcL

Ltr : Motor load state

As a % of Tn. Varies from 0 to 250 %.

Lth : Motor thermal state

From 0 to 250 %.

CoS : Motor cos ϕ (power factor)

Varies from 0 to 1.

¬00 indicates cos ϕ = 1.

ø50 indicates cos ϕ = 0.5.

LPr: Active motor power

From 0 to 255 %.

100 indicates the power corresponding to the adjusted value of In.

Overcurrent - Switch off the starter,

- High impedance short- check the connection
circuit at starter output cables and the motor
0cF - Internal short-circuit insulation
- Bypass contactor stuck - Check the thyristors
- Check the bypass
contactor (contact stuck)

Recognition of rating - Switch off the power Non-resettable fault

InF - Internal connection

supply and check the
internal connections.

Phase inversion Invert two phases

Phase rotation of the mains of the mains supply
PiF supply does not match the
selection made by Phr.

N Phase fault Check :
G - Mains supply phase failure - The voltage
L (t ≥ 500 ms) - The upstream fuses
I - Starter not supplied or the circuit-breaker

PhF L1 - L2 - L3
- Blowing of fuse
- The supply sequence
- The connection of

(t ≥ 200 ms) Type 1
- Mains supply subject to Fault which can be
interference automatically reset by
6 successive attempts
Frequency fault Check that mains supply and when the fault
- Mains supply frequency frequency is between has disappeared in
outside limits 50 Hz ± 2.5 Hz 2-wire control. After the
FrF (47,5 Hz - 52.5 Hz)
60 Hz ± 3.6 Hz
sixth fault, the starter
switches to non-
(56.4 Hz - 63.6 Hz) resettable fault.

Supply fault at a Check : Type 2

run request - The supply voltage Fault which can be
- Only with R1 as fault - The upstream fuses or automatically reset
relay the circuit-breaker when the fault
- The supply sequence disappears in automatic
USF reset position
