5.11 Auxiliary Trip Circuit
In normal operation the MCD 500 is controlled via a remote two wire signal (terminals 17, 18).
Input A (terminals 11, 16) is connected to an external trip circuit (such as a low pressure alarm switch for a pumping
system). When the external circuit activates, the soft starter trips, which stops the motor.

Parameter settings:
•
3-3 Input A Function
•
Select Input Trip (N/O) assigns the Input A to Auxiliary Trip (N/O) function
•
3-4 Input A Name
•
Select a name e.g. Low Pressure - assigns a name to Input A.
•
3-8 Remote Reset Logic
•
Select as required e.g. Normally Closed - the input behaves like a normally closed contact.
