Keypad operation and basic set-up

ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE KEYPAD CABLE IS PLUGGED IN BEFORE APPLYING POWER TO THE UNIT

When  wired  as  Fig  2.1,page  3,  the  XFE
display  will  indicate  start  up  messages
followed by ‘Stopped and ready’.  At this
point:

the XFE will start the motor when

the keypad

‘START/STOP’ key is

pressed but not when the START
switch as shown in Fig.2.1 is closed.

the XFE parameters are set to

factory default which may not be
ideal for the required application.

The  examples  in  section  4  show  how  to
set up some of the essential XFE operating
parameters using the keypad. Once these
are  understood,  other  XFE  settings,  as
indicated  in  the  programming  Menu
Structure, can be set in a similar manner
(The  corresponding  default  settings  are
shown  in  brackets).  For  the  full  menu
structure see page 6 .

XFE Soft Starts are either supplied pre-set to a Start Class or ready to set. An appliction selector chart is available
from FE to aid in the selection of the correct XFE.  If the unit is supplied ready to set then it will force the selection
of a starting Class when first powered up.
It is always possible to change the starting Class through menu item >Advanced > current > P106 start class

When the motor is running the XFE can display 

current

(default) or 

Estimated Power.

 Pressing the # key at the

top of the menu structure allows the user to toggle between these 2 options.

Starter Enable/Disable

An  additional  safety  feature  has  been  added  so  that  following  certain  actions  the  XFE  will  be  disabled.  It  is
strongly recommended that before any changes to parameter values are made, that the XFE is 

disabled

 via the

Basic Menu

. Once disabled, the XFE remains unable to drive the load, until it has been 

enabled

 via the 

Basic

Menu

, or the control supply is removed and reapplied, or the 

 

 key is pressed when prompted.

Cooling

The XFE is designed so that the rated start current/time is close to the maximum allowed. If the start duty is
exceeded the unit will trip. All XFE Soft Starts have a forced off cooling time between starts.
In line with the stated IEC starting duties, all XFE 100 series have an enforced off period of 2 minutes, likewise all
XFE 200 and XFE 300 series have an enforced off period of 7 minutes set as standard.  During this period the
display indicates 

“Stopped.Cooling”

 and the XFE will not respond to a start signal.

AC53a ratings are for Optimising or use without a bypass contactor.
AC53b rating is only for use with a bypass contactor and will trip if one is not used
