1.
Press to return to the Menu.
2.
Use
to scroll to Standard Menu and press .
3.
Scroll to Motor Data 1 and press , then press again to edit parameter 1A
Motor Full Load Current
.
4.
Set parameter 1A to match the motor's full load current (FLC).
NOTE
For advanced applications, refer to
Extended Menu
on page 41 and
Parameter Descriptions
on page 46.
7.
Close the Menu by pressing repeatedly.
8.
(Optional) Use the built-in simulation tools to check that the control wiring is connected correctly (refer to
Run Simulation
on page 27).
9.
Connect mains supply cables to starter input terminals 1/L1, 3/L2, 5/L3 (refer to
Power Input and Output Configurations
on
page 11).
10.
Connect the motor cables to starter output terminals 2/T1, 4/T2, 6/T3.
The soft starter is now ready to control the motor.
4.2
Testing the Installation
The EMX3 can be connected to a small motor for testing. During this test, the soft starter's control input and relay output protection
settings can be tested. This test mode is not suitable for testing soft starting or soft stopping performance.
The FLC of the test motor must be at least 2% of the soft starter's minimum FLC (refer to
Minimum and Maximum Current Settings
on page 82).
NOTE
When testing the soft starter with a small motor, set parameter 1A
Motor Full Load Current
to the minimum allowable
value.
