Limiting the Number of Starts per Hour (Start Lockout)
Function
When the set number of starts is reached and the motor is switched off, a new start is
prevented. Depending on its setting, either the main relay changes to “Fault”, or the selected
auxiliary is activated.
As soon as a new start is permissible, the start lockout is automatically reset.

allowed, the number of starts can be increased by one.
