VersiStart i III
Symptom
Probable Cause
Erratic and noisy motor operation.
x
If the soft starter is connected to the motor using inside delta configuration, the soft
starter may not be correctly detecting the connection. Contact your local supplier for
advice.
Soft stop ends too quickly.
x
The soft stop settings may not be appropriate for the motor and load. Review the
soft stop settings.
x
If the motor is very lightly loaded, soft stop will have limited effect.
Adaptive Control, brake, jog and
PowerThrough functions not working.
x
These features are only available with in-line installation. If the VersiStart i III is
installed inside delta, these features will not operate.
After selecting Adaptive Control the motor
used an ordinary start and/or the second
start was different to the first.
x
The first Adaptive Control start is actually 'Constant Current' so that the starter can
learn from the motor characteristics. Subsequent starts use Adaptive Control.
PowerThrough does not operate when
selected.
x
The starter will trip on Lx-Tx Shorted on the first start attempt after control power is
applied. PowerThrough will not operate if control power is cycled between starts.
Parameter settings cannot be stored.
x
Make sure you are saving the new value by pressing the
MENU/ENTER
button
after adjusting a parameter setting. If you press
EXIT
, the change will not be
saved.
x
Check that the adjustment lock (parameter 15B) is set to Read & Write. If the
adjustment lock is set to Read Only, settings can be viewed but not changed. You
need to know the security access code to change the adjustment lock setting.
x
The EEPROM may be faulty on the keypad. A faulty EEPROM will also trip the soft
starter, and the keypad will display the message Parameter out of range. Contact
your local supplier for advice.
