NOTE
The second thermal model is only active if Pr
11B
Dual Thermal Model
is set to 'Dual' and the starter is using the
secondary motor set (a programmable input is set to 'Motor Set Select' and the input is active).
CAUTION
Resetting the motor thermal model may compromise motor life and should only be done in the case of emergency.

Simulations
Software simulation functions let you test the soft starter's operation and control circuits without connecting the soft starter to mains
voltage. The simulations are accessed via the Simulations menu.
The Digistart IS has three simulation functions:
The
protection simulation
simulates activation of each protection mechanism to confirm that the soft starter and
associated control circuits are responding correctly. See
Protection simulation
for details.
The
run simulation
simulates a motor starting, running and stopping to confirm that the soft starter and associated
equipment have been installed correctly. The run simulation follows the protection simulations in the Simulations menu.
See
Run simulation
on page 66
for details.
The
output signal simulation
simulates output signalling to confirm that outputs and associated control circuits are
operating correctly. The output signal simulation follows the run simulation in the Simulations menu. See
Output signal
simulations
on page 67
for details.
The simulations are only available when the soft starter is in Ready state, control voltage is available and the keypad is active.
NOTE
Access to the simulation tools is protected by the access code (see Access Code on page 44).
The default access code is 0000.
Protection simulation
To use the protection simulation:
1. Open the Programming Menu and select Simulations.
2. Use the and buttons to select the protection you want to simulate.
3. Press and hold
M
to simulate the selected protection.
4. The screen is displayed momentarily. The soft starter's response depends on the
Protection Action setting (parameter group 16).

to exit.
Run simulation
You can end the simulation at any time by pressing
.
To use the run simulation:
1. Open the Programming Menu and select Simulations.
2. Scroll to Run Simulation and press
