6.4 Control Methods
The MCD 500 can be controlled via the control buttons on
the LCP (local control), via the remote inputs (remote
control) or via the serial communication network.
•
Local control is only available in Hand On mode.
•
Remote control is only available in Auto On
mode.
•
Control via the serial communication network is
always disabled in Hand On mode, and Start/Stop
commands via the serial network may be enabled
or disabled in Auto On mode by changing the
setting of
3-2 Comms in Remote
.
The MCD 500 can also be configured to auto-start or auto-
stop. Auto-start/stop operation is only available in Auto On
mode, and must be configured using parameters 5-1 - 5-4.
In Hand On mode, the starter will ignore any auto-start/
stop setting.
To switch between Hand On and Auto On modes, use the
local control buttons on the LCP.
[Hand On]: Start the motor and enter Hand On mode.
[Off]: Stop the motor and enter Hand On mode.
[Auto On]: Set the starter to Auto On mode.
[Reset]: Reset a trip (Hand On mode only).
The MCD 500 can also be set to allow local control only or
remote control only, using
3-1 Local/Remote
.
If
3-1 Local/Remote
is set to
Remote Control Only
, the [Off]
button is disabled and the motor must be stopped by
remote control or via the serial communication network.
