1.5.5 Status LEDs
EMS electronic motor starters feature four LEDs that are used to indicate
their operating state. These LEDs have the following designations and col-
ors:
Table 4:
LEDs at DOL starters (EMS-D…)
Table 5:
LEDs at reversing starter (EMS-R…)
After the supply voltage is applied, all four LEDs will light up once to ensure
that they are working.
The green
PWR
LED indicates the device‘s general status.
The red
ERR
LED is used to signal external faults (process faults: overcur-
rent, imbalance, phase failures). When this occurs, the device will be in a
safe, disconnected state. To leave this state, you will have to acknowledge
the fault (
Chapter 4, “Device status and fault detection“, Page 50).
The green
ON
,
L
, and
R
LEDs are used to indicate when the motor is running
anticlockwise or clockwise.
1.5.6 Reset button

errors (e.g., internal device faults). Process error conditions can be acknow-
ledged manually by pressing the Reset pushbutton (
The Reset button is also used to check the set rated motor current
