CHAPTER 5: SETPOINTS
CONFIGURATION SETPOINTS
MM300 MOTOR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
5–17
Pre-Contactor Time
Range: 0 to 60 seconds in steps of 1
Default: 0 seconds
This setpoint represents the time after a start command before the motor is started.
Most starters do not use this delay for forced starts such as undervoltage restart
immediate and external start. This setpoint is also used by the inverter starter and the
soft start starter to set the amount of time between powering up an inverter or soft
starter and sending the ramp-up command. An audible or other warning signal can be
activated in this interval by connecting the signal to a contact output set to the
precontactor function.
Transfer Time
Range: 0 to 125 seconds in steps of 1
Default: 1 second
The value specified by this setpoint is the time during which, the motor will be supplied
with the reduced voltage through an autotransformer. When this time expires, contactor
B will close and supply the full voltage to the motor.
Contactor Sequence
Range: 1S-2S, 2S-1S
Default: 1S-2S
Contactors 1S and 2S are closed in a sequence with a 40 millisecond delay. Contactor
Sequence setpoint selects the order of closing.
An additional two setpoints have to be configured in order to make the element work
properly:
Contactor C Status
and
Contactor C
. Refer to section
Inputs
on page 5-20and
Outputs
on page 5-22. The selections made there also assigns two system messages
Open Ctrl Cct
and
Welded Contactor
to the status of contactor 2S.
NOTE
NOTE:
It is recommended to check the specifications of the autotransformer used for this
application and adjust the MM300 setpoint
Starts/Hour Limit
if necessary [

].
NOTE
NOTE:
Pre-contactor is omitted on forced starts (for example, UVR Immediate, External Start).
Otherwise, type A forced starts operate in the same fashion as other type A starts, with the
transfer to full voltage occurring when the transfer time expires. Type B forced starts are
not supervised by this starter transfer timer - any external type B starting circuit must itself
respect full voltage starting restrictions.
