Programming - Soft Start with Soft Stop Option

The basic parameter set-up for Soft Start selection with Soft Stop
option follows:

Parameter

Range

SMC Option

“Soft Start” will be displayed.

Starting Mode

Allows the user to program the SMC Dialog Plus
controller for the type of starting that best fits
the application.

Soft Start, Current Limit

Ramp Time

This sets the time period during which the
controller will ramp the output voltage.

0 to 30 seconds

Initial Torque

The initial reduced voltage output level for the
voltage ramp is established and adjusted with
this parameter.

0 to 90% of locked rotor torque

Kickstart Time

A boost of 550% of full load current is provided
to the motor for the programmed time period.

0.0 to 2.0 seconds

Stall Delay

Allows the user to program the stall protection
delay time. The delay time begins after the
start time has timed out.

0 to 10 seconds

Energy Saver

The Energy Saver feature monitors the motor
load, phasing back the voltage output to the
motor when the motor is lightly loaded or
unloaded for an extended period of time.

Off, On

Aux Contacts 1&2

Two form C contacts are provided as standard
with the SMC Dialog Plus controller. These
contacts are located at terminals 18, 19 and
20. Aux Contacts 1&2 allows the user to
configure the operation of the contacts.

Normal, Up-to-speed

Aux Contact 3

A third auxiliary contact is provided between
terminals 29 and 30. Aux Contact 3 allows the
user to program the operation of the contact.

Normal, Fault

Contact 3 Config

This parameter provides the user with the
ability to program the “powered up” state of the
third auxiliary contact.

N.O., N.C.

Soft Stop Time

This parameter allows the user to program the
soft stop (voltage ramp down) time that best fits
the application.

0 to 60 seconds

Parameter Mgmt

The newly programmed parameters values can
be saved to memory, or the factory default
parameter values can be recalled.
