Soft Starter Running State Indication
For GX Series Soft Starters
External On /Off lights can be used to indicate a Soft Starter’s running status by using the Soft Starter Relay Outputs. In order to do that a Power Source can be connected to one of the Soft Starter Relays with the Off Light connected to the Normally Closed Relay Output and the On Light connected to the Normally Open Relay Output. Using the Relay Output parameters, the Outputs can be controlled by the Soft Starter Running Status by setting the following parameter:
- When using Relay 1 (TA1-TB1-TC1), set P2-04 = 3
- When using Relay 2 (TA2-TB2-TC2), set P2-06 = 3
Contact driving capacity:
- 250 Vac, 5A
For GW or GS Series Soft Starters
External On /Off lights can be used to indicate a GW or GS Series Soft Starter’s running status by using the Soft Starter Relay Output (Terminals 3 and 4). In order to do that a Power Source can be connected to the Soft Starter Relay (Terminals 3 and 4) with the Indicator Light connected to the circuit. Using the Relay Output parameters the Outputs can be controlled by the Soft Starter Running Status by setting the following parameter:
- Set FE = 6 (Working State)
* Note that the On/Off state can be ‘switched’/’reversed’ by setting FE = 16 (instead of 6).
