The reset input may be active. If the reset input is
active, the starter will not operate.
The soft starter does not
respond to the

elapse. The length of the restart delay is controlled
by parameter 5H
Restart Delay
.
•
The motor may be too hot to permit a start. The soft
starter will only permit a start when it calculates that
the motor has sufficient thermal capacity to complete
the start successfully. Wait for the motor to cool
before attempting another start.
•
The reset input may be active. If the reset input is
active, the starter will not operate.
•
The soft starter may be waiting for control signals via
the communications network (parameter 1A
