TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

Chapter 1 - Introduction

1.1 General Description

The TE Series is a digitally programmable solid-state reduced voltage

soft starter. Its six SCR design features a voltage/current ramp with an

anti-oscillation circuit for smooth load acceleration. The SCRs are sized

to withstand starting currents of 350% for 30 seconds and up to 600%

for 10 seconds. The TE Series features smooth, stepless ramp control,

which reduces motor inrush current and excessive wear on the

mechanical drive train components. The TE Series includes a

programmable keypad for setting operating parameters for the ideal

starting cycle and protection features, plus easy to understand

diagnostic LEDs. Starting torque, ramp time, current limit, dual ramp,

and Decel control are standard features on the TE Series, as well as

the integrated Batch Process Timer and Time Clock Controller used for

automated applications. By simply adjusting the unit’s starting torque,

ramp time and current limit functions, the starting electrical

characteristics of the motor can be matched to the mechanical

characteristics of the drive train for controlled acceleration of the load.

The TE Series includes solid-state electronic overload protection in

addition to numerous other protective features. It requires 120VAC

(240VAC optional) control power and uses dry contact inputs for Start /

Stop control. Programmable auxiliary contacts and provisions for

interlocking are also included.

1.2

Sizes and Ratings

The Toshiba TE Series starters are current rated controllers. Max. Amp

ratings are for continuous duty and must not be exceeded. Always

check the motor nameplate FLA and Service Factor to ensure proper

sizing.

Each size has an adjustable range of current from 50% to 100% of the

Max Amp rating. Table 1.2 below shows the Current Ratings available.

1.2.1

Selecting for Service Factor Utilization

Current

Range

Many NEMA design motors include a design rating referred to

as Service Factor (SF) that may allow continuous operation

above the nameplate current rating. If using this Service

Factor, the TE Series starter must be sized for the total amps

used. For proper selection of the TE Series starter when using

SF continuously, multiply the nameplate FLA by the stated

Service Factor, or use stated Service Factor Amps (SFA) if

listed on the nameplate. Following is an excerpt from the

NEMA MG-1 standards for AC Motors that describes the

issues concerning the use of Service Factor ratings.

"When an induction motor is operated at any service factor

greater than 1.0, it may have efficiency, power factor and

speed different than those at rated load. Locked rotor torque

and current and breakdown torque will remain the same. A

motor operating continuously at any service factor greater than

1.0 will have a reduced life expectancy compared to operating

at its nameplate horsepower."

When using this feature, simply program the TE Series

Service Factor (F002) to the nameplate rating see section

5.6.1. All other adjustments to protection circuits are done

automatically within the TE Series.

1.2.2

Selecting for Across the Line Bypass

If you need to be able to start the motor Across-the-Line if the

TE Series electronics are out of service, the starter can also

be selected based upon the rating of the Bypass Contactor.

Some users may also elect to size their Bypass Contactors per

NEMA guidelines. Please use the Product Price Catalog for

details and notes on doing this, and see Appendix 5 for special

considerations regarding Overload Protection.

TE-1006-BP or -P 503 - 1006

Table 1.2: TE Series Range

NOTE:

The TE…-BP Series starters include the ability to connect a dry

contact directly to the Bypass Contactor coil control circuit. These

terminals shipped are covered and should be used ONLY when

necessary for Emergency Bypass operation and with an external

Overload Relay. See Appendix 5 for additional information.

No field wiring is necessary to these terminals if this feature is not

used.

Chapter 2 - Installation

2.1

Receiving and Unpacking

Upon receipt of the product, you should immediately do the following:

Carefully unpack the unit from the shipping carton and inspect it for

shipping damage (if damaged, notify the freight carrier and file a

claim within 15 days of receipt).

Verify that the model number on the unit matches your purchase

order.

Confirm that the ratings sticker on the unit matches or is greater

than the motor’s HP and current rating.

2.2

Choosing a Location

Proper location of the TE Series is necessary to achieve specified

performance and normal operation lifetime. The TE Series should

always be installed in an area where the following conditions exist:

Ambient operating temperature:

Panel (open chassis) unit: 0 to 50°C (32 to 122°F)

Enclosed unit: 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F)

Protected from rain, moisture and direct sun.

Humidity: 5 to 95% non-condensing

Free from metallic particles, conductive dust and corrosive gas

Free from excessive vibration (below 0.5G)

Open panel units must be mounted in the appropriate type of

enclosure. Enclosure size and type must be suitable to dissipate

heat generated by the soft starter and any other components

mounted inside with it.

Units with –BP Bypass Contactors produce less heat than units

without. Throughout all sizes, maximum heat dissipation of the

TE…-BP Series electronics, contactor coils and fans is less than

50W.

Units without the –BP Bypass Contactor (optional on 210A and

above), must have ventilation adequate to account for heat

dissipation of the SCRs. This must be estimated at 4.5 watts per

running load amp. For example, on a 200HP 460V motor with

240FLA, the maximum heat dissipation of a starter w/o bypass will

be 240 x 4.5, or 1080 watts of heat. Enclosure ventilation (or air

conditioning) must be capable of dispersing this amount of heat.

Care should always be taken to maximize the available space

inside of the enclosure. See section 2.5.1 or contact factory for

assistance in sizing enclosures.

2.3

Initial Unit Inspection

Make a complete visual check of the unit for damage that may have

occurred during shipping and handling. Do not attempt to continue

installation or start up the unit if it is damaged.

Check for loose mechanical assemblies or broken wires which may

have occurred during transportation or handling. Loose electrical

connections will increase resistance and cause the unit to function

improperly.

Prior to beginning the installation, verify that the motor and TE

Series unit are rated for the proper amperage and voltage.

WARNING

2.4

SERVICE WARNING!

Do not service equipment with voltage applied! The unit can be the

source of fatal electrical shocks! To avoid shock hazard,

disconnect main power and control power before working on the

unit. Warning labels must be attached to terminals, enclosure and

control panel to meet local codes. Use Lock Out tags such as the

one shown when servicing equipment.

2.5

Mounting and Cleaning

When drilling or punching holes in the enclosure, cover the electrical

assembly to prevent metal filings from becoming lodged in areas which

can cause clearance reduction or actually short out electronics. After

work is complete, thoroughly clean, vacuum the area, and re-inspect the

unit for foreign material.

2.5.1 Clearances

Make sure there is sufficient clearance all around the unit for cooling,

wiring and maintenance purposes. To conserve panel space, the TE

Series –BP models were designed for close horizontal clearances of

only 1 inch (25mm) on either side. A minimum vertical clearance of 4”

(100 mm) on the top and bottom is necessary to maximize effective

airflow and cooling, and the unit must be installed with its heat sink ribs

oriented vertically and running parallel to the mounting surface. Keep in

mind that these are minimums. Wiring may require more clearance,

particularly on the bottom.

WARNING

Remove all sources of power before cleaning the unit.

In dirty or contaminated atmospheres, the unit should be cleaned on a

regular basis to ensure proper cooling. Do not use any chemicals to

clean the unit. To remove surface dust use clean, dry compressed air

only, 80 to 100 psi. A three-inch, high quality, dry paintbrush is helpful to

loosen up the dust prior to using compressed air on the unit. Do not use

wire brushes or other conductive cleaning materials.

2.6

Power Terminations

All line and load power terminations are to be made to tin plated copper

Bus Tabs located on each unit. Bus tabs are pre-drilled to accept

industry standard bolts. Some sizes come with saddle clamp terminals,

however lugs are the responsibility of the user. Toshiba recommends

using crimp-on lugs, although mechanical lugs are suitable as well. The

following diagrams show sizes of the bus tab holes and critical spacing

between them for determining the size of lug that can be used.

NOTE: All wiring must be sized according to local code standards.

Chapter 3 - Motor Overload Protection

3.1

Solid State Overload Protection

The TE Series Starter provides true U.L. listed I²t Thermal Overload

Protection as a built-in function of the main digital processor for

maximum motor protection. It simulates the tripping action of a bi-

metallic overload relay, with the accuracy and repeatability of a digital

control system. It is adjustable over a wide range and can be easily

programmed for different trip curves.

MOTOR FLA (F001)

must be programmed

for unit to operate!

3.1.1 Thermal Memory

The TE Series microprocessor uses a sophisticated “Thermal Register”

in the digital memory to keep track of motor heating and cooling over

time regardless of the starter’s power status. By using non-volatile

memory, the TE Series does not “forget” that the motor has been

running even if power to the starter is turned off and turned back on.

Continuous overload protection is provided based on the true thermal

condition of the motor.

3.1.2 Thermal Capacity

The Thermal Register is displayed as a percentage. This percentage is

the motor’s remaining thermal capacity. The percentage value begins at

100, showing that the motor is cool (has 100% of its capacity available).

As the motor heats up or moves toward an overload condition, the

percentage begins to drop. The Thermal Capacity is derived from the

programmed motor nameplate Full Load Amps (FLA) in Function F001,

the Service Factor rating in Function F002, and the Overload Trip Class

in Functions F003 and F004. Setting these functions to the proper

values provides maximum protection and eliminates nuisance tripping.

Examples:

H 100

100% Thermal Capacity

remaining at rest

The Remaining Thermal Capacity can be viewed by using the UP or

DOWN arrow keys when in the Status Display mode. From the default

Phase A Current screen (dot on right side), press the UP arrow key 4

times to display [H100] meaning there is 100% of the Thermal Capacity

(H = Heat capacity) remaining in the motor. After starting or running, the

motor will use this capacity and the display will show a lower number.

For example, after a cold start, the display may read [H065] which

indicates that the motor has 65% of its thermal capacity remaining (35%

used). The Status Display screens cycle back to the beginning, so the

Down arrow keys can get to this display as well.

H 057

57% Thermal Capacity

remaining after starting

(43% used)

3.1.2.a

Motor Full Load (FLA) Setting

Use Function F001 to enter motor FLA as indicated on the motor

nameplate. (Do not calculate for service factor, this is programmed

separately in F002).

NOTE:

All TE Series starters are shipped from the factory with F001 set to

a default value of 0000. If F001 is left at the factory default, the unit

will not operate. If the user attempts to start the TE Series without

entering the motor nameplate FLA, the starter will Fault and the

display will read “nFLA” (no Full Load Amps).

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

3.1.3 Disabling the Overload Protection

The Overload Protection feature can be disabled if necessary. When

using external devices such as Motor Protection Relays or when the TE

Series is wired downstream from an existing starter, this feature can be

disabled to prevent conflicts with external overload protection devices.

When the TE Series is controlling multiple motors, the built-in Overload

protection must be disabled and individual thermal overload relays must

be installed on the motor leads going to each motor (see appendix 5 for

additional details). To disable the Overload Protection function, use

F005.

WARNING

Do NOT disable Overload Protection unless another Thermal Overload Protection

device exists in the circuit for all three phases. Running a motor without Overload

Protection presents serious risk of motor damage or fire.

3.1.3.a

Manual Reset

The factory default setting is Manual Reset. This means that when

the Overload Trip is activated, the starter cannot be restarted

without pressing the Reset key. The Overload Trip will not reset

until the motor cools down (see 3.1.3.d). The Manual Reset function

is also “trip free”. Holding in the Reset key will not prevent the

Overload Trip from activating and protecting the motor.

NOTE:

When the Overload Trip activates, the Overload LED will glow solid.

When the motor cools down, the LED will begin to flash, indicating

that the Overload Trip can be reset.

3.1.3.b

Automatic Reset

If Automatic Reset is necessary, change from Manual Reset to

Automatic Reset by using Function F005. (See Section 5 for

details). In this mode, a 3-wire control circuit will be capable of

restart when the TE Series has reset itself after the cool down

period.

WARNING

Two-wire control systems may restart without warning when Auto

Reset of the overload protection is selected. Extreme caution

should be exercised. To prevent automatic restarting with 2-wire

control systems, use external interlocking to provide sufficient

warning and safety to operators. A Warning Label similar to that

shown below (and the one provided in the packet with this manual)

must be located where visible (on the starter enclosure and/or the

driven equipment) as required by local code.

WARNING: MOTOR CONNECTED TO THIS EQUIPMENT

3.1.3.c

Overload Protection During Bypass

When an integral Bypass Contactor is used to shunt power around

the SCRs in the TE Series (as in the TE…-BP version), overload

protection is maintained as long as the TE Series is directly

controlling the contactor. No additional Overload Relay is

necessary for normal operation.

CAUTION

If a Bypass Contactor is added by the user in the field (i.e. 210A units and above), care

must be taken to ensure proper power routing to ensure functioning of the Overload

protection. Consult factory for assistance.

When the Bypass Contactor on a TE…-BP Series has been

selected to be used for Across-the-Line restart (reference section

1.2.3), supplemental overload protection may be necessary. For this

application, refer to the External Overload Relay Applications

supplement and wiring diagram in Appendix 5 and section 4.2.6.a.

3.1.3.d

Dynamic Reset Capacity

The TE Series includes the ability to dynamically track the Thermal

Capacity needed for a successful restart after an overload trip. It

averages the Thermal Capacity consumed in the previous three

successful starts, and calculates a Thermal Capacity to Start

(viewed in Function F059). After tripping on Overload, the Thermal

Reset will be allowed. If the display reads [ Inh] when attempting to

reset an overload trip, it is indicating that the starter is Inhibited from

being reset.

Refer to details of Function F071 for information on emergency

override of lockouts such as this.

3.2

NEMA Class Trip Curves

NEMA Class trip curves are based on a common tripping point of 600%

of motor Full Load Amps (FLA). Curves vary by the amount of time

before the unit trips. As an example, a Class 20 curve will trip in 20

seconds at 600% of FLA. The factory default setting of Class 10 will trip

in 10 seconds at 600% of FLA.

3.2.1 Dual Overload Trip Curves

The TE Series Soft Starter provides two separate Overload Trip

Protection Curves, one for starting and one for running conditions. The

starter’s At-Speed detection circuit determines when the motor has

reached full speed. When the At-Speed condition is reached, the

overload trip curve will shift from the Start to the Run level, as

programmed in Functions F003 and F004. See Section 5.6.1 for

programming details.

3.2.2 Starting Overload Trip Curve

During the start mode, Overload Trip Curves are selectable from NEMA

Class 5 through Class 20 only. The default setting of Class 10 allows

protection for the overload capacity of the soft starter as well as the

motor. Use a higher Trip Class only if nuisance tripping occurs with the

default setting.

starter in a sealed enclosure without a

bypass contactor.

4.1.3 Grounding

Connect the ground cable to the ground terminal as labeled on the unit.

Refer to the National Electrical Code or your local Code for the proper

ground wire sizing and be sure that the ground connector is connected

to earth ground. In ungrounded systems, it is not necessary to connect

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

4.1.4 Testing

The TE Series can be tested with a load smaller than the motor it was

originally selected to control, however additional steps must be taken to

avoid tripping on Phase Current Loss. See section 5.6.9.a under “Phase

Loss Protection” for additional details on performing this task.

NOTE:

The unit cannot be tested without a motor or other test load

connected to the load side of the unit. It may be necessary to use a

load bank to test the unit without a motor.

Line voltage will appear across the output terminals if there is no

motor or load connected to the unit.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Fault code SSd may display if there is no output load connection

when control power is applied!

4.1.5 Lightning Protection

As with all electronic power controllers, protection from damage by

lightning surges is recommended in areas where lightning is a

significant problem. Stationary air gap lightning arrestors should be

considered and utilized on the input power source. The best method of

protection is to have an Isolation Contactor in front of the starter that is

open when the soft starter is not in use.

4.2

Control Connections

Control connections on the TE Series starter are divided into 2 groups.

With the unit oriented vertically, TB1 is a 12-point DC terminal block (on

the left), and TB2 is a 10 point AC terminal block (on the right side).

These are removable terminal blocks for ease of connection and

servicing, and are provided with different spacing (pitch) between the

header pins so they are not interchangeable. Following are descriptions

of control connection points.

NOTE:

Terminal numbers are shown on the side of the first and last

terminal of each block. An additional 3 point terminal on the far left

side is for serial communication connections (see section 5.6.11).

using Auto-Reset functions.

NOTE:

When a maintained contact is used for start/stop it is advisable to

set the overload relay to the manual reset position. This will prevent

the motor from restarting if the thermal overload trips and then cools

off.

CAUTION

Control Terminals 1-10 of TB1 are a 24VDC circuit from an internal

power supply of the TE Series.

Use dry (unpowered) contact closures only. Applying any voltage

to these terminals will result in damage to the TE Series control

board.

If existing 120VAC or other powered control circuit must be

interfaced, use interposing relays or control the TE Series with 2

wire control as shown above.

4.2.4 Interlock Connection

TB1 provides a connection point for an external dry (voltage free) N.C.

(Normally Closed) interlock device between terminals 4 and 5.

Examples where this interlock connection would be used include low oil,

high temperature, or excess vibration dropout from user supplied

devices. A factory-installed jumper is provided which allows the TE

Series unit to operate if external interlocks are not used. If this jumper is

removed and an interlock is not used, the TE Series unit will not

function.

4.2.6 PTC Thermistor Input

The TE Series starter is provided with input terminals for connecting a

PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) Thermistor that may be

imbedded in the motor. These are specialized resistors imbedded in

some motor windings that increase resistance as the temperature

increases. When the TE Series detects that the PTC input resistance is

too high, it initiates a PTC trip, and displays it on the readout as

[ PTc ]. This is independent of the Thermal Register overload current

protection and provides supplemental protection for high motor ambient

temperature applications. Terminals for this input are provided with a

factory jumper that must be removed if the PTC input is used. These

terminals are located on TB1, Terminals 9 and 10.

4.2.9 Bypass Contactor Control

On TE…-BP version (and NEMA 12 enclosed) starters, an internal

dedicated connection is used at the factory for automatically controlling

the Bypass Contactor. Field wiring for Bypass Contactor operation is not

required.

4.2.9.a

Independent Bypass Contactor Control

The TE…-BP Series starters use standard industrial contactors that

can be controlled independent of the starter electronics if

necessary. When doing so, it is necessary to size the starter based

upon the ATL (Across-the-Line) selection chart so that the

contactors are rated for ATL duty instead of the normal Shunt Duty

(see section 1.2.3). Supplemental overload protection will be

required (see section 3.1.3.c).

Units have external terminal blocks marked for this purpose (see

Appendix 5 for drawings). A dry (voltage free) contact closure

between these terminals will close the bypass contactor

immediately. The Bypass Contactor coil voltage is the same as the

control voltage (120VAC unless the optional 240VAC control is

specified), and the potential on these terminals is the same as the

coil voltage.

No field wiring is necessary to these terminals if this feature is

not used.

Chapter 5 - Programming

5.1

Introduction

It is best to operate the motor at its full load starting conditions to

achieve the proper time, torque and ramp settings. Initial factory settings

are set to accommodate general motor applications and provide basic

motor protection. Advanced features must be enabled via programming.

The only parameter that MUST be set by the user is motor FLA (F001).

MOTOR FLA (F001)

must be programmed

for unit to operate!

5.2

Digital Interface

The TE Series Soft Starter includes an intuitive, digital keypad with

eight LEDs, seven command keys, and an LED display with four

alphanumeric digits.

Display Modes

There are three modes of display: the Status Display Mode, the

Program Mode, and the Fault Mode.

5.3.1 Status Display Mode (Default Display)

The Status Display Mode displays seven “screens” of information. Motor

Currents (3 phases), Remaining Thermal Capacity, Ground Current,

Remaining Time on the Process Timer, and Time Base of the Time

Clock Controller. This is also the entry screen for going into the Program

Mode.

Status mode:

[0000.] The initial display on power up is four digits and the decimal.

This indicates the motor current for Phase A of the motor.

[0000] Scroll UP to display four digits only (no decimal). This indicates

the motor current for Phase B. While viewing Phase B, press the UP

arrow again to view Phase C current.

[G000] Scroll UP to display the “G”. This indicates that this value is the

current flowing to ground on the motor leads.

[H000] Scroll UP to display the “H”. This indicates that this value is the

remaining thermal capacity percentage of the motor (i.e. H070 = 70%

remaining thermal capacity)

[0000] Scroll UP again to display the Process Batch Timer (described in

Section 5.6.7). If this entire screen is flashing, the Timer is active.

[00.00] Scroll UP to display two pairs of digits separated by a point: This

indicates the time base of the Time Clock Controller (described in

section 5.6.7). If the display shows [00.00], the TCC is not enabled. This

follows the time settings in F075 – F080.

Program Mode

The starter must be OFF in order to enter the Program Mode.

Use the Program Mode to view or change Function (Fn) settings. To

enter the Program Mode, press the [Fn] key once from the Status

Screen described in 5.3.1 above. The first time you enter the Program

Mode after power has been cycled to the starter, the initial function

[F001] should display with the selected digit flashing. If the TE Series

starter has been programmed and power to the unit has not been

cycled, the readout will display the last function viewed or changed. To

change to a different function, use the arrow keys.

5.4.1 Viewing Function Programming and Values

The programming of each individual Function can be viewed without

making changes (values can also be viewed in the Run Mode, however

no changes can be made). Each Function is signified by the letter “F” in

the beginning of the data, the 4 digit value of the function follows after

hitting the [READ/ENTER] key

• [F001] The “F” indicates the programmable Function.

• [0000] This is the present setting of the applicable function. This

display may include decimals between digits depending on the function

setting’s range and incremental steps.

5.4.2 Enabling Password Protection / Parameter Lock

The TE Series starter is shipped with the password protection disabled

(F070 = 0). If it becomes necessary to prevent parameters from being

changed inadvertently, set the password in function F070. See

Appendix 3 for details. If the display reads [ Loc] when the

[READ/ENTER] key is pressed, the parameter lock is enabled.

5.4.3 Changing a Function’s Set Value

From the instructions above, after hitting the [READ/ENTER] key the

display will show the value of that function with one digit flashing

(usually the rightmost digit). Flashing indicates this is the digit to be

altered (similar to cursor position). Use the UP arrow key to increment

the value of the flashing digit. Use the DOWN arrow key to decrement

the value of the flashing digit. Use the LEFT or RIGHT arrow to select

the next digit to be altered. Values can only be changed within the

Adjustment Range of the function parameter.

5.4.5 Fault Mode

The Fault Mode Display provides information to the operator when a

fault occurs and allows the operator to review fault history. Refer to

Section 7 for details. Fault codes are three-digits in length and are

displayed in alpha characters. The first and second characters (reading

left to right) are the initials for the applicable English-language fault

name. The third or right-most character can be either A, c, or d to

denote when the fault occurred. “A” denotes Acceleration. “c” denotes

Constant speed. “d” denotes Decel.

keys to scroll through the Fault History. An additional Fault History

complete with Time and Date stamps is also available for viewing at any

time in F085 through F093.

5.4.5.a

Resetting Faults

Once a fault condition has been corrected, pressing the Reset key

will return the readout to the Status Display mode. To reset faults,

press the [RESET] key on the keypad. Alternatively, most faults will

reset upon removal and return of control power. Over Load trips will

NOT be reset in this way unless sufficient time has passed for the

Thermal Register to regain sufficient capacity for a successful

restart (see section 3.1).

5.4.5.c

Automatic Reset

The TE Series starter provides for automatic reset on certain non-

critical faults and Over Load. For non-critical fault resets, see

section 5.6.9 for program details of F052 and F053. For automatic

Over Load reset, see section 3.1 and 5.6.1 for programming details.

5.4.5.d

Lockout Functions

Lockout functions such as Minimum Time Between Starts and

Starts per Hour are not true fault conditions. They are based on the

internal Real Time Clock (RTC). When control power is removed,

the RTC value is quickly stored. Upon return of power, the timer

values are updated from the RTC for elapsed time. If the Lockout

Time has not expired, the TE Series cannot be started. To reset the

Lockout Times for emergency restart, see section 5.6.12, under

F071.

5.4.5.e

Changing to Default Screen During Fault

In some cases it may be necessary to alter programmed

parameters in order to test or make changes to clear a fault (such

as Phase Loss) or to view the more detailed fault history in F085 –

F097. To accomplish this, you must get to the Status Screen so the

Fn button becomes active. When in a Fault Screen, pressing the

Right or Left Arrow buttons will take you to the Status Screen. From

there, you can hit the [Fn] key to enter the Programming Mode and

move to different functions.

5.6

Function Descriptions

Your TE Series starter is set at the factory with typical default settings

that perform well in most applications. Following are detailed

descriptions of each Function and the factory default settings.

5.6.1 Motor and Overload Function Descriptions

F001= Motor FLA

Factory Setting = 0

Range = 50 - 100% of Unit Max. Current.

MOTOR FLA (F001)

must be programmed

for unit to operate!

Set the value of this function to the motor nameplate Full Load

Amps (FLA). Adjustments for service factor are not necessary

when programming this function. (See note below). If the motor

nameplate FLA is not available, use typical values as shown in

NEC, NEMA standard MG-1 or other reputable third party

source (motor manufacturer, etc.).

NOTE:

To prevent adjusting the settings beyond the starter Max Amp

rating, the range of adjustment for the Motor Nameplate FLA will

vary in accordance with the Service Factor as programmed into

F002. At the default setting of 1.0SF, the full range of adjustment

from 50 - 100% of the Max Amp rating is available. As the Service

Factor is increased, the FLA range will drop by an equal ratio. For

example if F002 = 1.15 (a 1.15 Service Factor), the maximum FLA

programmable into F001 will be limited to 85% of the starter Max.

Amp rating (100% - 15%).

F002 = Service Factor

Factory Setting = 1.0 S.F.

Range = 1.00 - 1.30

Set value according to the Service Factor (SF) data provided on

the motor’s nameplate. This value affects several protection

features so it must be accurate. Setting the SF too high may

result in motor damage in an overload condition. Setting SF too

low may cause nuisance trips however; a 1.0 SF setting is

safest if SF is unknown.

NOTE:

The combination of F002 and F001 (FLA x SF) cannot exceed the

Unit Max Amp rating. If when programming F002 you are not

allowed to raise the setting, the combined total has been exceeded.

F003 = Overload Class During Start

Factory Setting = 10 (Class 10)

Range = NEMA / UL Class 5 - 20

Set value to the motor protection overload class required for the

application. It is recommended that you try the factory setting

first. (If possible, keep values for F003 and F004 the same.)

Increase F003 above F004 only if nuisance tripping occurs

during start. See Section 3.2 for details on trip curves.

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

F004 = Overload Class During Run

Factory Setting = 10 (Class 10)

Range = 5 - 30 NEMA / UL Class

Set value according to the instructions provided by your motor /

equipment manufacturer. This trip curve will not be enabled until

the motor has reached full speed.

F005 = Overload Reset

Factory Setting = 0 (Manual)

Range = 0 – 2

Set value to determine starter behavior after an overload

condition has cleared.

When set to 0 = Manual, the operator must press the [RESET]

key before restarting the motor. Once the motor windings have

cooled sufficiently AND the [RESET] key is pressed, the unit

will accept a restart command.

When set to 1 = Automatic mode, and once sufficient time has

elapsed allowing motor windings to cool, the motor will be

restarted upon a start command. If 2-wire control is used, the

unit will restart immediately.

When set to 2 = Disabled Overload, the TE Series will not trip

on Motor Thermal Overload. This is provided for applications

where either an external Overload Relay or Motor Protection

Relay is used, or where multiple motors are connected and

each one requires having an individual Overload Relay. See

Appendix 5 for more details.

WARNING

Setting F005 = 1 (Automatic) may present significant operational risk.

When F005 = 2 (Disabled Overload), a separate external thermal overload protection device

must be in the circuit.

NOTE:

Because of the risk of fire or equipment damage, cycling control

power will NOT reset an Overload Trip. If F005 = 2 (Automatic

Reset), cycling control power will allow reset ONLY IF the Thermal

thermal capacity to allow it to restart successfully.

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

5.6.2 Starting Mode

The TE Series is capable of several different starting modes, but is set

from the factory for the most common applications. A second ramp

profile is available for use should you need it. Unless wired to do so, the

TE Series defaults to Ramp 1. This section describes functions for

Ramp 1, with references to function numbers that do the same thing for

Ramp 2 (if required). Refer to Appendix 2 for a detailed description

of the differences in Ramp Profiles and their uses. All current

percentages are based on the Motor FLA as programmed in F001.

F010 = Ramp Profile Selection

Factory Setting = 1

Range = 1 – 4

This Function selects the type of Ramp Profile desired. Ramp

profiles can be either Voltage Ramp or Current Ramp. See

Appendix 2 for details. Each Ramp Profile consists of 3 settings:

Initial Torque, Ramp Time and Maximum Current Limit.

Because there are two ramps available, there are 4 settings to

cover the combinations of profiles possible. If you are not using

the 2^ndramp, the TE Series will ignore all settings in reference

to Ramp 2.

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

F011 = Initial Voltage of Ramp 1

Factory Setting = 60%

Range = 0 - 100%

Sets the initial voltage of ramp 1 when F010 = 1 or 3. The initial

torque level should be set to provide just enough torque to

make the motor shaft begin to rotate while preventing torque

shock damage to mechanical components.

F012 = Initial Current of Ramp 1

Factory Setting = 200%

Range = 0 - 600%

Sets the initial current of ramp 1 (when F010 = 2 or 4). The

initial torque level should be set to provide just enough torque to

make the motor shaft begin to rotate while preventing torque

shock damage to mechanical components.

F013 = Accel Ramp Time of Ramp 1

Factory Setting = 10 seconds

Range = 1 - 120 seconds

Sets the time between the initial torque (set with F011 or F012)

and either the Max Current Limit (set with F014) or full output

voltage. Set time to enable soft starts without stalls. Also,

consider your motor’s application. For example, centrifugal

pumps may require a shorter ramp time.

NOTE:

Ramp time is affected by the following conditions:

1. Current limit will extend the ramp time if the motor does not reach

full speed while in current limit mode.

2. Anti-oscillation circuit may shorten the ramp time if the motor

reaches full speed before end of ramp.

F014 = Max Current Limit of Ramp 1

Factory Setting = 350%

Range = 200 - 600%

Sets the maximum motor current that the TE Series starter will

allow during Ramp 1. This limit applies to both voltage and

current-type ramping. Current will be limited to this setting until

either the motor reaches full speed or the over load protection

feature trips (F003).

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

5.6.2.a

Ramp 2 (user-optional ramp)

This ramp is selected by closing the input for Ramp 2, TB1 –

terminals 5 & 6 (see section 4.2.5). If this input is left open, the TE

Series will respond only to Ramp 1 settings as listed above. Since

ramp 2 is always used as an alternate to the default Ramp 1,

different combinations of ramp profiles can be selected in F010.

Refer to Appendix 1 for additional information on ramp profiles.

F015 = Initial Torque (Voltage) of Ramp 2

Factory Setting = 60%

Range = 0 - 100%

Sets the initial voltage of Ramp 2 when F010 = 1 or 4. The

initial torque level should be set to provide just enough torque to

make the motor shaft begin to rotate while preventing torque

shock damage to mechanical components.

F016 = Initial Torque (Current) of Ramp 2

Factory Setting = 200%

Range = 0 - 600%

Sets the initial current of Ramp 2 when F010 = 2 or 3. The initial

torque level should be set to provide just enough torque to

make the motor shaft begin to rotate while preventing torque

shock damage to mechanical components.

F017 = Accel Ramp Time of Ramp 2

Factory Setting = 10 seconds

Range = 1 - 120 seconds

Sets the time between the initial torque (set with F015 or F016)

and either the Max Current Limit (set with F018) or full output

voltage. Set time to enable soft starts without stalls. Also

consider your motor’s application. For example, centrifugal

pumps may require a shorter time. See NOTE under F013 for

more details.

F018 = Max Current Limit of Ramp 2

Factory Setting = 350%

Range = 200 - 600%

Sets the maximum motor current that the TE Series starter will

allow during ramp 2. (This limit applies to both voltage and

current-type ramping.) Current will be limited to this setting until

either the motor reaches full speed or the over load protection

feature trips (F003).

NOTE:

Ramp 2 is often useful as a “bump start” or as a temporary Across-

the-Line start mode. Consult Appendix 1 for details.

5.6.3

Jog Mode

The Jog Function is another user optional feature and is controlled by

closing the input on TB1 Terminals 6 and 7. If this input is left open, the

TE Series will ignore all Jog settings. Engaging the Jog feature along

with the Start / Run Command provides an output from the SCRs, but

will not continue ramping to full acceleration. This feature can Jog the

motor at either a preset Voltage (F019 – F021) or a preset Current

(F021) depending upon the settings of the Ramp Type from F010, and

can be initiated along with Ramp 1 or Ramp 2 (see Dual Ramp Select,

Section 4.2.5 and 5.6.2.a). It is also sometimes useful to use Jog in

combination with Ramp 2, see section 4.2.5.c.

NOTE: Jog functions may become disabled by Comm port function F068 setting 3.

In some applications such as chain drive machinery, the Kick Start

feature can be used to slowly take up slack in the drive chain before

applying full torque. This is referred to as “Dwell Starting” because

the torque output stays low for a short time. To take advantage of

this feature, simply set the Kick Start to the same level as the Initial

Torque setting. This will only work in Voltage Ramp mode.

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

5.6.5 Pump-Flex^®Decel Mode (F025 through F028)

Pump-Flex^®deceleration is a feature of the TE Series Soft Starter that

slowly decreases the applied voltage to the motor when a stop

command is given, resulting in a gentle decrease in motor torque.

Deceleration provides a way to extend the stopping time so that abrupt

stopping does not occur. Deceleration is useful with centrifugal pumps,

material handlers, and conveyors where abrupt stopping could be

damaging to the equipment and/or load.

SEE APPENDIX 2 AT THE END OF THIS MANUAL for typical Pump-

Flex^®Decel feature applications and more detailed descriptions of the

following functions.

F024 = Deceleration Ramp

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 0 – 2

When F024 = 0, the deceleration feature is disabled.

When F024 = 1, the deceleration feature is enabled AND the overload

protection feature (from F003 - F005) remains active (power off

on OL trip).

When F024 = 2, the deceleration feature is enabled and deceleration

will continue even when an overload condition trips.

WARNING

Setting F025 = 2 presents significant risk of over-heating the motor beyond its design limits

which could result in motor damage and fire hazard. Do this only in circumstances where

the potential for mechanical damage outweighs the risk of motor damage.

F025 = Begin Decel Level (BDL)

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

CAUTION

Decel is THE OPPOSITE of braking. Enabling the Decel feature will make the motor take

LONGER to stop than if it were simply turned off.

5.6.6 Restart Delay

The TE Series can be programmed to delay restarting upon restoration

of line power after an outage. This allows multiple units to be

programmed to restart at staggered times in an effort to avoid causing

additional problems with the power supply system. Another term for this

is “Sequential Start Delay”.

F028 = Restart Delay Time

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 0 = Disabled (no delay), or 1 - 999 seconds

Sets a delay time before the starter can be restarted after a

complete loss of power. Use this if multiple motors are

connected to a supply system that may have trouble providing

adequate power to restart them all at the same time. By using

different Restart Delay Times on each unit, a sequential restart

can be achieved.

NOTE:

This is similar to the Coast Down Lockout Timer in F048, however it

only activates on Power Loss.

5.6.7 Process Timer Control Mode (F030 through F039):

The following special functions allow the TE Series starter to operate

automatically from a Process Control Timer using an internal Real Time

Clock.

Only brief descriptions of the functions are provided here.

REFER TO APPENDIX 4 at the end of this manual for detailed

operations and instructions.

NOTE:

These functions may interact with the Coast Down Lockout (F048),

Starts-per-Hour Lockout (F049), Minimum Time Between Starts

(F050), Auto-Reset (F052 and 53) and Restart Delay Time (F028)

functions if enabled. Be sure to review and understand settings for

these functions before using the Process Timer.

F030 = Process Control Timer Selection

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 0, 1, 2

This function enables a Process Control Timer, which may be

used alone or in conjunction with the Time Clock Controller

feature (F032-F039). This timer offers two operating modes,

selected by entering 1 or 2 into the function parameter:

Setting 1 = Minimum (Batch) Run Timer: After a Start

Command, the starter runs until the batch timer expires. If

stopped and restarted it will complete that batch time sequence.

Setting 2 = Permissive Run Timer. After a Start Event from

the TCC, the starter can be started and stopped as necessary,

until the timer expires.

F031 = Process Timer Value

Factory Setting = 1

Range = 1 – 9999 minutes

This function loads a value into the Process Timer above. When

initialized, the value counts down towards 0.

NOTE:

The above Process Control Timer in F030 – F031 works in

conjunction with the Time Clock Controller in F032 – F039. When

the TCC is set to One-Shot (F032 = 0), this timer will activate

whenever a Start Command is given. When F032 = any other

setting, this timer activates according to that schedule.

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

F032 = Real Time Clock Controller

Factory Setting = 0 (One Shot)

Range = 0 - 8 settings

This function is used to select the operating mode of the 24hr /

7 Day Time Clock Controller (TCC). F032 sets the number of

days in which the TCC will repeat the Start Event Cycle of up to

seven discrete Start Events selected in F033 through F039.

After each Start Event, the TE Series will run per the time value

set in F030 above. If F030 = 0, the TCC settings are ignored.

See Appendix 4 for additional details.

1 = 1 day per week,

2 = 2 days per week

…

7 = 7 days per week

8 = A single 24HR event, non-repeating

0 = One-Shot. When set to 0, the TE Series responds only to

each Start input command. Use this setting to allow the Process

Timer to operate without the TCC (see Appendix 4 if F030=2).

F033 = Event #1 Start Time

Factory Setting = OFF

Range = 00:00 through 23:59, or OFF

This function is used to select the start time for Event #1 in the

RTCC above. Once started by this event, the TE will run the

motor according to the selections entered into F030 and F031.

F034 = Event #2 Start Time

5.6.8 Current and Ground Fault Protection Features

F040 – F050 set extended protection features that may be used in the

TE Series starter. Percentages shown are all based automatically upon

the Motor FLA setting from F001 (except Ground Fault, F046). No

additional calculations are necessary.

NOTE:

All of these features are disabled at the factory and must be

enabled via user programming as follows:

F040 = Current Imbalance Trip

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 5 - 30% or 0 (Disabled)

Use to set the trip level for when current imbalance between

any two phases exceeds this amount for the time specified with

F041.

F041 = Current Imbalance Trip Delay

Factory Setting = 2 seconds

Range = 1 - 20 seconds

Provides a time delay to prevent nuisance trips from short-

duration transients. Using default settings, if the difference in

output current between two phases exceeds 10% of FLA for

more than 2 seconds, the starter will trip.

F042 = Over Current Trip / Shear Pin Trip

Over Current Trip

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

F042: O. C.

Trip Setting

Range = 100 - 300%, 0 (Disabled)

When a value other than 0 is entered for F042, the starter will

trip when the output current of any phase exceeds the amount

set and the time specified in F043. This is also referred to as a

“Shear Pin Trip” and can be used to protect mechanical

components from breaking due to jammed loads.

F043: O.C.

Trip Delay

Current

F043 = Over Current Trip Delay

Factory Setting = 1 second

Range = 1 - 20 seconds

output current of any phase exceeds F042 for more than 1

second, the starter will trip.

amount set, and the time specified in F045. This fault condition

is often referred to as a “Load Loss Trip” and can be used to

detect a broken shaft, V belt or other mechanical drive system

component. In pumping applications, this can be used as a

“Loss of Prime” trip.

5.6.8.a

Ground Fault

F046 – F047 provides Ground Fault protection for equipment only

(a.k.a. Arcing Ground Fault) using the Residual Current method.

Trip settings are based on the CT ratio as shown in F074 (see

below). A delay time is available in F047 to help prevent nuisance

trips. Ground current can always be viewed in the Status Display,

shown with a “G” prefix (see section 5.3.1).

WARNING

THIS IS NOT INTENDED TO BE USED AS "PERSONNEL PROTECTION" GROUND FAULT!

This feature is only intended to provide a level of equipment protection against damaging

ground currents. Ground faults are potentially dangerous conditions and must be

corrected immediately for safety of operating personnel.

F046 = Ground Fault Trip

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 5 - 90% of CT value, or 0 (Disabled)

When a value other than 0 is entered for F046, the starter will

trip if current to ground exceeds this percentage of the unit CT

value. The CT value is shown in F074 (see section 5.6.12). This

value is different from the Unit Rating or FLA setting. To

calculate actual ground current, multiply the CT value of F074

by the setting of F046.

Example:

210A starter, desired Ground Fault Trip level is 20A:

On this unit, the CT value reading from F074 will be 250 (250:5)

20 / 250 = 0.08 (8%)

Set F046 to 8

F047 = Ground Fault Trip Delay

Factory Setting = 2 seconds

Range = 1 - 60 seconds

Provides a time delay to prevent nuisance trips from short-

duration transients. Using default setting, if the Ground Fault

current exceeds the level set in F046 for more than 2 seconds,

the starter will trip.

CAUTION

This method of Ground Fault sensing may not provide adequate

equipment protection in resistance-grounded systems. We

recommend providing external GF protection using a core

balanced Zero Sequence CT for those types of applications.

Consult factory for additional assistance.

5.6.9 Lockouts, Reset and Internal Protection Features

F048 – F050 provide lockout protection for motors and equipment that

may have potentially damaging consequences from premature restart or

with limited duty cycles. Time and count values for these lockouts can

be viewed in F055 – F058. Time values are based on the Real Time

Clock and DONOT reset when power is lost or disconnected.

Emergency clearing of lockouts can be accomplished in F071.

NOTE:

When F048 through F050 are used with 3 wire control systems, a

Start command will not seal in during lockout time. When time has

expired, a new Start command will be necessary.

WARNING

When F048 through F050 are used with 2-wire control, the starter may re-start

automatically when time has expired. Adequate warnings similar to those in Section

3.1.3.b should be observed.

F048 = Coast Down Lockout Timer (Back Spin Timer)

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 1 - 60 minutes, or 0 (Disabled)

When F048 = 1 through 60, this sets the number of minutes that

the starter must be off before a restart can be attempted. This

function is useful in applications such as pump motor backspin

protection (where you need to prevent the pump motor from

restarting if it is spinning backwards), 2 speed operations where

speed changes require a minimum disconnect (spin-down

timer), or reversing applications to prevent plugging (anti-

plugging timer).

Figure 5.6.9:

Coast Down Lockout Timer

F049 = Maximum Starts per Hour Lockout

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 1 – 10 or 0 (Disabled)

If F049=1 through 10, this feature will count the number of start

commands within a 1 hour period. If the setting (maximum

starts per hour) is exceeded, starting is prohibited until sufficient

time has expired. This timer initiates upon the first start in an

hour. It resets after 1 hour from that start and waits until another

subsequent start to initiate again. (Often used in conjunction

with F050).

NOTE:

Consult the motor manufacturer for a “Starts-per-Hour” or “Starting

Duty Cycle” rating. Larger motors tend to have lower starts-per-hour

ratings.

When using the Decel function (F025) or an electronic braking

option, count these cycles as additional “starts” when determining

maximum starts-per-hour.

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

F050 = Minimum Time Between Starts Lockout

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 1 - 60 minutes, or 0 (Disabled)

When F050 is set to 1 through 60, the motor cannot be

restarted within the time specified after the first start. Time

between starts is calculated from the time of the first start

command to the next regardless of run time or off time.

Example:

If F050 = 15, motor will not be allowed to re-start within 15

minutes of first start.

This function is useful as a “Short-Cycle Timer” in preventing

excessive wear on motors where automatic demand control

may occasionally cycle on and off too quickly, such as

compressors or sump pumps

5.6.9.a

Internal Protection Features

The TE Series starter contains additional protection features that

are built-into the hardware and factory preset. Function F051 is

provided to alter these settings via numerical preset programming.

For maximum protection, all of these features are turned On as a

factory default and should be left that way unless changes are

necessary for service purposes, testing or to accommodate non-

standard applications. Factory default settings are as follows:

Phase Rotation: Protection is ON,

expected rotation sequence is set for A-B-C

Phase Current Loss (Running): Protection is ON, trips at <20% of

unit Max amps after 3 seconds of acceleration and at full speed.

Shorted SCR: Protection is ON, unit will lock out if one SCR is

shorted (no voltage drop across the SCR)

Shunt Trip: Protection is ON; unit trips if current flows in any phase

while in OFF mode.

PTC Trip: Protection is ON; unit will trip if PTC Input resistance

exceeds set value (or open).

Line Phase Loss (Stopped): Protection is ON; unit will trip if any

line voltage is not present while the unit is not accelerating or

stopped.

F051 = Internal Protection Features

Factory Setting = 127 (all enabled)

Range = 1 – 127: Numeric value representing bit locations

F051 represents the numeric value of a byte (8 bits) of memory

which enables or disables these features. Each bit within that

byte acts like a “dip switch” to alter the associated feature, but

instead of having to open the starter case, changes can be

done via the keypad. Each function has a fixed numeric decimal

value associated with it. Adding or subtracting decimal values to

this function changes the binary (On-Off) status of each bit and

is simply done by entering the new value into F051. The Factory

Default value is F051 = 0127, which has all features On.

Numeric values for each feature are as follows:

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

Phase Rotation Protection:

The TE Series is set up to monitor an expected Phase Rotation and trip

if it changes. Control of this is divided into two categories: On-Off and

Expected Sequence. The default setting is On, with and Expected

Sequence of A-B-C rotation.

The ability to turn this feature ON or OFF is useful in applications where

the TE Series starter is going to be used downstream from an existing

reversing contactor / starter, or to avoid conflicts with other protection

devices.

Rotation Trip On-Off Control Numeric value = 1.

If this feature is On (default setting) and you want to turn it Off,

Subtract 1 from F051

If this feature is Off and you want to turn it On, add 1 to F051

When set to On, a trip will occur when the Expected Sequence (see

below) is wrong.

On large motors where large multiple conductors are used, it may be

easier to change the Expected Sequence in the TE Series starter rather

than swap the conductors.

Expected Phase Rotation Sequence Numeric Value = 2

If A-B-C rotation is the expected sequence (default setting) and you

want it to be A-C-B, subtract 2 from F051

If A-C-B rotation is the expected sequence and you want it to be

A-B-C, add 2 to F051

If Rotation Trip is set to Off (see above), this setting is ignored.

Phase Current Loss (Running) Protection:

This feature will cause a Trip if current in any phase (or all 3) is less

than 20% of the unit maximum amp rating after 3 seconds from a Start

Command (note that this is based on the Max Amp rating and not the

programmed FLA). Turn it to OFF if the motor no-load current is

exceptionally low such as in high inertia machines, or if you are testing

a large starter with a small motor.

Phase Loss (Running) Protection Numeric Value = 4

If this feature is On (default setting) and you want to turn it Off,

Subtract 4 from F051

If this feature is Off and you want to turn it On, add 4 to F051

Shorted SCR Lockout protection:

This feature will cause a Lockout if at least one SCR is shorted, based

on the expected voltage drop across the SCR assembly when the unit is

OFF (a shorted SCR cannot be detected while the unit is running or in

Bypass mode). If someone who understands the ramifications of having

a shorted SCR issue requires an emergency restart, this feature can be

turned to OFF. This is not the same as a Shunt Trip circuit (see below).

This is a lockout of the NEXT start command.

Shorted SCR Lockout Numeric Value = 8

If this feature is On (default setting) and you want to turn it Off,

Subtract 8 from F051

If this feature is Off and you want to turn it On, add 8 to F051

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

Shunt Trip:

Shunt Trip is a feature that will cause an immediate Trip if the TE Series

detects current flowing through any phase (or all) when it is supposed to

be off. The trip function is typically associated with Aux. Relay setting 7

(see F060-63), wired to a Shunt Trip coil in an upstream circuit breaker

or an in-line contactor. This is so that power flow to the motor windings

can be interrupted to prevent damage. The usual cause is multiple

shorted SCRs or a welded Bypass Contactor. The only time this should

be turned off is for troubleshooting by Service personnel.

Shunt Trip Numeric Value = 16

If this feature is On (default setting) and you want to turn it Off,

Subtract 16 from F051

If this feature is Off and you want to turn it On, add 16 to F051

PTC Trip:

This feature controls the inclusion of the PTC Input (see Section 4.2.7).

When ON (default setting), a jumper wire or other circuit must be

installed on the PTC input if a PTC resistor is not included in the motor.

Turn this feature to OFF for troubleshooting or if you do not want to

worry about the jumper wire.

PTC Trip Numeric Value = 32

If this feature is On (default setting) and you want to turn it Off,

Subtract 32 from F051

If this feature is Off and you want to turn it On, add 32 to F051

Line Phase Loss (Stopped) Trip:

This feature will prevent the TE Series starter from attempting to start if

voltage in one (or more) of the incoming lines is not present. This can

be used to detect a blown fuse or power supply loss (as long as control

power is still available). It differs from the Phase Loss (Running) Trip

above in that it is based upon line voltage so does not require that a

Start Command be given. This trip function resets itself after

determining that all 3 phases have voltage applied. The voltage level at

which this feature activates is fixed at approximately 100VAC, but is not

adjustable and should not be used as Under Voltage protection.

Line Phase Loss (Stopped) Trip Numeric Value = 64

If this feature is On (default setting) and you want to turn it Off,

Subtract 64 from F051

If this feature is Off and you want to turn it On, add 64 to F051

NOTE:

1) When using an In-Line Isolation Contactor, it may be necessary

to defeat this protection (by subtracting a numeric value of 64 from

F051) in order to avoid nuisance tripping whenever the In-Line

Contactor opens.

2) This protection will automatically reset itself when line voltage is

present on all 3 phases. When using 3-wire control the TE Series

will not attempt restarting unless the Start Command is reinitiated.

CAUTION

When using 2-wire control, the starter will restart when this

feature resets itself after all 3 phases are present.

Table 5.6.9.a: Function 51 table of Hardware Protection Features

NOTE:

To restore all settings back to the factory default, enter a value of

127. If you see a numeric value other than the default value of 127,

one or more features has already been altered. If you do not know

which one or ones are changed, the simplest thing to do is

determine what combination of settings you want now, and subtract

from 127 then enter that number to accomplish it.

Example: F051 reads a numeric value of 109, meaning that something

has been changed, but you don’t know what. By subtracting 109

from 127, you have a value of 18 remaining, and since 18 does not

represent a single bit, it means that some combination has been

used. Subtract the largest represented bit, i.e. bit #4 (value of 16),

which leaves a value of 2, representing bit #1. So in this example,

the Shunt Trip feature had been turned off, and the Expected Phase

Sequence had been changed to A-C-B.

If you do not wish to bother with what the previous settings were,

simply decide which features you now want to be turned on and

come up with a new numeric value to enter. For instance if you want

all features on, but you need phase rotation to be A-C-B (bit #1),

then simple subtract a value of 2 from 127, and enter 125 into F051.

Communications

The TE Series starter is shipped from the factory ready to accept

RS-485 Serial Communications using Modbus RTU protocol. Additional

detailed instructions on accomplishing communications are available in

a Serial Communication Supplement to this manual. F065 – F067 are

used to set the communications parameters in the starter for use by the

adaptor module. F068 determines how the Start / Stop functions work

through the comm. port.

F065 = Communications

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 0 – 2

This enables serial communications with remote monitoring and

control systems and sets the format for Modbus RTU protocol.

Once Enabled, the local start / stop inputs are altered to avoid

inadvertent starting. See F068 for details.

When F065 = 0, communications are disabled.

When F065 = 1, uses the std 11 bit Modbus format w/ parity bit.

When F065 = 2, a non-standard 10-bit format without a parity

bit is used to accommodate some systems using this method.

F066 = Baud Rate

Factory Setting = 9.6 KB

Range = 4.8 to 19.2 KB

Set value to either 4.8 KB, 9.6 KB or 19.2 KB and match the

setting of the host device.

F067 = Modbus Address

Factory Setting = 1

Range = 1 – 247

The Modbus communications protocol allows each node to

have up to 247 connected devices but each must have a unique

address. Two devices with the same address will result in a

communications error.

F068 = Remote Starter Control

Factory Setting = 0 (disabled)

Range = 0 – 3

Use this to program how the TE Series starter is to be

controlled when using serial communications.

When F068 = 0, the starter can be monitored by the Comm

port, but not controlled.

Special Note when using Serial Comm:

When F068 = 3, the function of the Jog /

Remote Input on TB-1 terminals 7 and 8 will

change. Closing the Input will cause the

Comm. port control to function as per setting

1. Leaving the input open will cause the

Comm. port to function as per setting 0.

When F068 = 1, the starter will be controlled by the comm port.

In addition, the Start / Stop inputs are altered as follows: The

hard-wired Start command is put in “AND” logic with the Comm

port; both Start commands must be on for the TE to start. The

Stop function is put in “OR” logic; either the Comm. port Stop

command OR the hard-wired Stop will cause the TE to stop.

When F068 = 2, the TE starter is in full control of the Comm.

port only. Local Start / Stop inputs become completely inactive.

Use this function only when controlled shutdown is a priority.

When F068 = 3, the TE starter will change the function of the

Jog / Remote Input to cause a switch between the functions of

setting 0 and setting 1 as listed above. When the input is open,

the starter will respond to the Comm port as per setting 0

above. When the Jog / Remote Input is closed, the starter will

respond as per setting 1 above. Use this function if it is

necessary to have a return to local start/stop control should the

communications system fail or become disconnected.

When F068 = 1, 2 or 3, the Jog function will

cease to operate. Since Jogging is a local

function, set F068 to 0 when using it.

The following functions set operator interface controls and unit

programming. Also contained here are the Clock settings used for

history functions. Change the Clock settings if accurate time values are

important.

F070 = Parameter Lock / User Password

Factory Setting = 0 (disabled)

Range = 0 – 999

Use only when necessary to prevent unauthorized access.

Provides users with the ability to prevent unauthorized

operators from making changes to the programmed functions. If

you do NOT need to take advantage of this feature, do not enter

anything into this function. The factory default is disabled, and

no Password is necessary to make changes to the program.

See Appendix 3 at the end of this manual for detailed instructions

on using and altering the Parameter Lock / User Password

feature.

F071 = Emergency Clear / Reset

Factory Setting = 0 (disabled)

Range = 0 – 2

This Function serves two purposes. It can clear the memory

values used for lockouts and overload protection, and it can

reset all functions to the factory default settings. This is a “One-

Shot” feature, so when another value is entered as shown

below, this function automatically returns to the default state.

When F071 = 0, the feature is disabled.

When F071 = 1, the values stored in the Thermal Register and all of

the Lockout Timers will be cleared. This will allow an emergency

restart without having to wait for proper cool down time or lockout

timers to expire.

WARNING

Clearing the Thermal Register to allow restarting without proper cool-down time after an

Overload Trip will risk motor damage and fire. Use only where emergency restart is

necessary with knowledge of these potential hazards.

When F071 = 2, the values of all functions will be reset to the

factory default settings. Use this feature when settings conflict or

have been tampered with. This is also useful when you lose track of

experimental settings and wish to start over. It will also be used to

clear the Fault History.

Start-up Check List

Supply voltage matches the rated supply voltage of the unit.

Horsepower and current ratings of the motor and unit match or the

unit is higher rating.

Initial ramp time and torque adjustments have been checked.

Power lines are attached to the unit input terminals L1, L2 and L3.

Motor leads are connected to the lower terminals T1, T2, and T3.

Appropriate control power is applied and/or control connections

have been made.

“Power On” light located on the front of the unit turns on when

control power is applied.

Four 7-segment LED readouts are visible.

The motor’s FLA has been programmed in function F001.

The thermal overload is properly set. (Use F003 and F004 to set OL

Class.)

The motor area and equipment are clear of people and parts before

start-up.

6.3

Sequence of Operation

Apply three-phase power to the unit. The motor should not run until

the start command is applied.

Apply control power and check that the “Power On” LED comes on.

Status Display should read [0000.] showing no current in Phase A

(minor flickering of the first digit is common).

Apply the Run (Start) command. The motor should begin to

accelerate. Status display will read Phase A Amps at an increasing

rate.

When the motor reaches full speed, the “At Speed” LED comes on.

Status display should show a sharp decrease in Phase-A amps.

If a Bypass Contactor is present (TE…-BP model), the Bypass

Contactor should pull in.

If the motor does not fully accelerate, decelerates, or stops during

the acceleration period, hit the Stop button immediately and open

the disconnect line.

If Pump-Flex Decel is programmed in F025:

Remove the Run Command (or hit the Stop button). At-Speed LED

will go out.

If a Bypass Contactor is present (TE…-BP model), the Bypass

Contactor should drop out.

Status display should read Phase-A amps increasing as motor

begins to decelerate.

Motor should begin to slow down. Status display should begin to

show decreasing motor amps.

When motor reaches Stop Level, starter should turn off. Status

display will again show [0000.]

6.4

Testing with a smaller motor

To test the TE Series starter with a motor which will draw less than

20% of the unit Max Amp rating, you must disable the Phase

Current Loss (Running) protection as per instructions in section

5.6.9.a. If this feature is not disabled, the TE Series will give a

Phase Loss Trip after running for 3 seconds at low currents.

Chapter 7 - Fault Conditions

Additional information on Fault Codes and possible causes can be

found in the Service and Troubleshooting Guide.

7.1 Fault Codes and Numbers (in History)

A three-character fault code is displayed in the LED display at the time

of the trip event. The first two digits indicate the trip condition (see Table

7.1). The third digit is a suffix showing the TE Series operating mode

when the trip occurred. Operating modes are as follows:

Code suffix “A”: Acceleration, meaning that the TE Series was

ramping up but had not yet achieved “At-Speed” status (see section

4.2.9.b for a brief description of At-Speed indication).

Code suffix “c”: Constant Speed (running), meaning that the TE

Series has reached the At-Speed condition and the motor was running

when the trip occurred.

Code suffix “d”: Decel or Stop, meaning that TE Series was either

stopped (off, but power applied), or if the Pump-Flex Decel function was

enabled, it was engaged in the Soft Stop routine set up by F024-27.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Fault code SSd may display if there is no output load connection

when control power is applied!

In addition to these fault display codes, each trip condition has a

corresponding numeric code that is stored in the Fault History (see

section 5.6.13.a). These numeric codes follow the display codes

exactly. The following Table 7.1 shows Fault Display Codes, Fault

Number Codes, LED indicators that would come on with them and

descriptions. Additional details are available in the Service and

Troubleshooting Guide.

Example: If Function F003 (starting overload protection) is set too low

for the size of the load and causes a trip, the code “oLA” will be

displayed. Its corresponding number will be entered into the fault

history. In this case, the number 0010 will be available for display in the

window of function F085 (Fault History). The time the fault was detected

is available in Function F086. It is expressed as hh.mm. Therefore, if the

“oLA” fault occurred at 10:00 am, F086 would display 10.00. The date

the fault occurred is available in Function F087. The date is expressed

as mm.dd. If the “oLA” fault occurred on March 1, F077 would display

03.01. If there were no fault conditions in history, the display in F085

would read 0000.

The TE Series offers four different types of starting ramp profiles.

Simply select the one that best matches your motor / load requirements.

In addition, two separate ramps are available that can be selected via

contact closure (see section 4.2.5.a), and each one can be set up for

any ramp type as shown in the table below.

Table APP 1.1: Ramp Selection Choices and Settings

Following are descriptions of the four types of Ramp Profiles

1. Voltage Ramping is the most reliable starting method, since at some

point the starter will reach an output voltage high enough to allow the

motor to draw full current and develop full torque. This method is useful

for applications where the load conditions change frequently and

significantly enough to require different levels of starting torque.

Examples where this is effective are:

Full Speed

Initial Torque

Material handling conveyers

Positive displacement pumps

Drum mixers, grinders etc.

Ramp Time

Time

Voltage is increased from a starting point (Initial Torque) to full voltage

over an adjustable time period (Ramp Time). To achieve Voltage

Ramping, set the Ramp Profile (F010) to 0001 or 0003 (Voltage Ramp),

and the Maximum Current Limit setting (F014) to maximum (600%).

Since this is essentially Locked Rotor Current on most motors, there will

be little or no Current Limit effect on the Ramp profile. Initial Torque

setting comes from the Initial Voltage function F011.

Figure APP 1.1:

Voltage Ramp w/o Current Limit

2. Voltage Ramping with Current Limit works similarly to the above,

except adds an adjustable maximum current output. Voltage is

increased gradually until the Maximum Current Limit setting (F014) is

reached, then held at this level until the motor accelerates to full speed.

Then as the current drops below the limit setting, voltage is

automatically increased to maximize torque until the TE Series is At-

Speed. This may be necessary in applications where the electrical

power is limited. Examples would be:

Full Speed

Initial Torque

Current

Limit Setting

Ramp Time

Portable or emergency generator supplies

Utility power near the end of a transmission line or other starting

power demand restrictions.

Time

Using Current Limit will override the Ramp Time setting if necessary, so

use this feature when acceleration time is not critical. The Ramp Time

setting however still determines the slope of the ramp up to the Current

Limit setting to apply the softest possible acceleration. To achieve

Voltage Ramping with Current Limit, set the Ramp Profile (F010) to

0001 or 0003 (Voltage Ramp), and the Maximum Current Limit setting

(F014) to a desired lower setting, as determined by your application

requirements.

Voltage Ramp with Current Limit

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

3. Closed Loop Current (Torque) Ramping is good for smooth linear

acceleration of output torque. Ramp Time becomes the time from Initial

Torque and Current Limit settings. Output torque is constantly updated

using an internal PID feedback loop to provide a linear ramp, and

therefore the available torque is maximized at any given speed. The

best use of this feature is for applications where rapid changes in torque

may result in load damage or equipment changes. Examples would be:

Current Limit

Initial Torque

Long overland conveyors where belt stretching may occur.

Ramp Time

Speed

Low pressure pumps where slight surges at the end-of-ramp may

pose mechanical problems.

Time

Fans and mixers where blade warping is a problem.

Figure APP 1.3:

Current / Torque Ramp

Material handling systems where stacked products may fall over or

break.

This feature can be used with or without the Maximum Current Limit

setting.

To achieve Torque Ramping with the TE Series, set the Ramp Profile

(F010) to 0002 or 0004 (Current Ramp), and the Maximum Current Limit

setting (F014) to the desired level. Initial Torque setting comes from the

Initial Current function F012.

4. Current Limit Only (Current Step) starting means using the Current

Limit feature exclusively without the benefit of soft starting by ramping

the voltage or current first (also known as Pedestal Starting). This will

maximize the effective application of motor torque within the limits of the

motor. In this mode, Initial Torque is set to maximum and Ramp Time is

set to minimum, so the output current jumps to the Current Limit setting

immediately. Examples of when to use this mode are:

Current Limit

Initial Torque

Applications with a severely limited power supply

Speed

When starting a difficult load such as a centrifuge or deep well

pump

Time

When the motor capacity is barely adequate without stalling or

overloading.

Figure APP 1.4:

Current Step Starting

It is a good choice when other starting modes fail.

Since ramp times are set to minimum, this mode functions in either

Voltage Ramp or Current Ramp setting.

Ramp Parameter Descriptions

Following are detailed descriptions of the individual settings that make

up each ramp profile.

Initial Torque (Initial Voltage or Initial Current).

These functions set the initial start point of either the Voltage Ramp or

Current Ramp as programmed in F010. Every load requires at least

some amount of torque to start from a standstill. It is not efficient to

begin ramping the motor from zero every time, since between zero and

the (WK²) breakaway torque level, no useful work is being performed.

The initial torque level should be set to provide just enough torque to

make the motor shaft begin to rotate, enabling the softest possible start

and preventing torque shock damage to the mechanical components.

Setting this function too high will not damage the starter, but may

reduce or eliminate the soft start advantages.

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

Accel Ramp Time. This Function sets the maximum allowable time for

ramping from the Initial Torque setting to either of the following:

1) Current limit setting when the motor is still accelerating, or

2) Full output voltage if the Current Limit is set to maximum.

Increasing the Ramp Time softens the start process by lowering the

slope of increase in voltage or current. This should be set to provide the

softest possible start without stalling unless you have determined that

your application has other considerations. Applications where this

setting should be shorter include Centrifugal Pumps, because pump

problems may occur as a result of insufficient torque during acceleration

through the pump curve.

NOTE:

Ramp Time is affected by the following conditions:

1. Current Limit will automatically override the Ramp Time if set to

Voltage Ramp (F010=1) and if the motor does not reach full

speed while in current limit mode.

2. An “Anti-Oscillation” circuit built-in to the TE Series will shorten

the Ramp Time if the motor reaches full speed before end of

ramp.

Current Limit. This Function sets the maximum motor current that the

starter allows during Ramping. It is active in both the Voltage Ramp and

Current Ramp modes. As the motor begins to ramp, this feature will set

a ceiling at which the current draw will be held. Current Limit will remain

in effect until one of the following two events occur:

1. The motor reaches full speed as detected by the At-Speed

detection circuit.

2. The Overload Protection trips on Motor Thermal Overload (see

Ch.3).

Once the motor has reached full speed, the Current Limit feature

becomes inactive.

In the Voltage Ramp Profile, the Voltage output is increased until

the Current Limit is reached. The Ramp Time is the maximum time

it will take for the voltage to increase until the Current Limit setting

takes over. Under some load conditions, Current Limit may be

reached before the Ramp Time has expired.

In the Current Ramp Profile, output voltage varies to provide a

linear increase in current up to the Current Limit setting, and Ramp

Time is the time that it will take to get there. A closed loop feedback

of motor current allows continuous updating of the output to

maintain this ramp profile.

Because most AC induction motors will not start below 200% current,

the current limit set point is adjustable down to only 200%.

CAUTION

While in the Start mode there is no maximum Current Limit time.

Excessive start time may lead to motor stalling, causing an

Overload Trip. If this happens, try raising the Current Limit setting

to accommodate your load conditions. If the Current Limit setting

cannot be increased, try using Current Limit without ramping

features (“Current Limit Only” as described previously).

Appendix 2: Pump-Flex^®Decel Mode Application Considerations

Pump-Flex^®Deceleration (Soft Stop) is a unique feature of Toshiba

Solid State Soft Starters. It provides a slow decrease in the output

voltage, accomplishing a gentle decrease in motor torque during the

Coast-to-Stop

(using Electro-Mech. starter)

stopping mode. This is the OPPOSITE OF BRAKING in that it will take

longer to come to a stop than if the starter were just turned off.

Pump On

Pump Flow

Check Valve

The primary use of this function is with centrifugal pumps as a means to

reduce the sudden changes in pressure that are associated with “Water

Hammer” and slamming of check valves. Decel control in pump

applications is often referred to as Pump Control.

Open

In a pump system, liquid is being pushed uphill. The force exerted by

gravity on the column of liquid as it goes up hill is called the “Head

Pressure” in the system. The pump is sized to provide enough Output

Pressure to overcome the Head Pressure and move the fluid up the

pipe. When the pump is turned off, the Output Pressure rapidly drops to

zero and the Head Pressure takes over to send the fluid back down the

hill. A “Check Valve” is used somewhere in the system to prevent this (if

necessary) by only allowing the liquid to flow in one direction.

Pump Off

Back Flow

Check Valve

Slams

Kinetic energy in that moving fluid is suddenly trapped when the valve

slams closed. Since fluids can’t compress, that energy is transformed

into a “Shock Wave” that travels through the piping system looking for

an outlet in which to dissipate. The sound of that shock wave is referred

to as “Water Hammer”. The energy in that shock wave can be extremely

damaging to pipes, fittings, flanges, seals and mounting systems.

Pump-Flex^®Soft Stop

(using VMX Series starter)

SOLUTION:

By using the Pump-Flex^®Decel feature of the TE Series, the pump

output torque is gradually and gently reduced, which slowly reduces the

pressure in the pipe. When the Pump Output Pressure is just slightly

lower than the System Head Pressure, the flow slowly reverses and

closes the Check Valve. By this time there is very little energy left in the

moving fluid and the Shock Wave is avoided. When the output voltage

to the motor is low enough to no longer be needed, the TE Series will

end the Pump-Flex^®Decel cycle and turn itself off.

Setup and Use

Pump systems vary greatly. To accommodate this, the Pump-Flex^®

Decel control feature is designed to provide complete flexibility in how

the deceleration process takes place by using the following settings.

Decel begins when a Stop command is given (or the Run command is

removed). If there is a Bypass Contactor, it will open immediately,

putting the power control back to the SCRs.

Figure APP2.2: Pump-Flex Decel Graph

F024 = Deceleration Ramp

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 0 – 2

When F024 = 0, the deceleration feature is disabled.

When F024 = 1, the deceleration feature is enabled AND the overload

protection feature (from F003 - F005) remains active. When a

Stop command is given, the starter begins to apply Decel

voltage. However, if an overload trip occurs, the starter ceases

applying Decel voltage and the motor coasts to a stop to

prevent additional motor heating and potential motor damage.

When F024 = 2, the deceleration feature is enabled and deceleration

will continue even when an overload condition trips. This is

to be used only when the risk of damage due to an uncontrolled

shutdown is considered worse than the potential damage to the

motor.

WARNING

Setting F025 = 2 presents significant risk of over-heating

the motor beyond its design limits which could result in

motor damage and fire hazard. Do this only in

circumstances where the potential for mechanical damage

outweighs the risk of motor damage.

ALWAYS shuts the starter down WITHOUT Decel (as in setting 1

above) even if F025 is set to 2.

F025 = Begin Decel Level (BDL)

Factory Setting = 60%

Range = 0 - 100% of line voltage

Use to drop voltage to a level where there is a noticeable effect

on motor torque during Decel mode. Generally, systems with

high head pressure need to start Decel near the top of the ramp

(85-95%). Low head systems can drop to lower settings (50-

60%). System conditions vary greatly by pump type, pipe size

and system head. Some experimentation with settings may be

necessary.

F026 = Decel Shut Off Voltage

Factory Setting = 30%

Range = 0 to (BDL -1)%

Sets the level where the starter is turned off, corresponding to

where motor torque during Decel is no longer effective. Always

set this function lower than the setting of F026, Begin Decel

Level (this function is restricted from being less than F026

minus 1%). This function is used to shut the motor off once the

check valve closes. Again, because systems vary greatly this

setting may require adjustment several times. If you cannot

hear or see the check valve close, observe fluid pressure or

flow if available.

F027 = Decel Ramp Time

Factory Setting = 10 seconds

Range = 1 - 60 seconds

Sets the maximum time for the deceleration ramp to go from the

Begin Decel Level setting (F026) to the Decel Shut Off Voltage

(F027). This function is used to dampen the effect of reducing

pump torque as much as possible. If the check valve still slams

at the end of ramp, try extending this time function a little. Since

motor heating increases as voltage is lowered, the setting

should not exceed the time necessary to achieve the

deceleration effect.

NOTE:

When using the Decel function, count these cycles as additional

“starts” when determining maximum starts-per-hour.

Other Applications:

Another common application for Decel control is on material handling

conveyors as a means to prevent sudden stops that may cause

products to shift, fall over or to bump into one another.

In overhead crane applications, Soft Stopping of the Bridge or Trolley

can prevent loads from beginning to over swing on sudden stops.

Appendix 3: Parameter Lock / User Password Instructions

Provides users with the ability to prevent unauthorized operators from

making changes to the programmed functions. If you do not need to

take advantage of this feature, do not enter anything into this

function. The factory default is disabled, and no Password is necessary

to make changes to the program.

When any value other than 0000 is entered into this Function, the

Parameter Lock is enabled and that number becomes the User

Password. From that point forward, it will be necessary to enter the User

Password in this Function prior to making changes in any programmed

function, including this one. When the Parameter Lock has been

enabled, attempts to alter the program will result in the display reading

[Err ] whenever the [READ/ENTER] key is pressed.

To alter the program after the Parameter Lock has been enabled, go to

Function F070 and enter the correct user Password. The display will

read an encoded value representing the existing password. As soon as

you press the first Arrow key, the display will change to [0000] and start

showing the actual value of your password entry. When the [READ/

ENTER] button is pressed, the display will read [PASS], indicating that

the User Password is correct and the system is unlocked. You will have

5 minutes in which to make a change in the program. This 5-minute

window resets whenever any key is pressed, so it floats to give you 5

minutes after the last entry. After 5 minutes of no keypad activity, the

Parameter Lock is reinstated with the current user Password.

Subsequent changes will require re-entering the User Password.

To change the User Password or to disable the Parameter Lock

function, enter the programmed User Password first, and then set

Function F070 to 0, disabling the Parameter Lock. If you do not re-enter

the Password or enter a new user password, the Parameter Lock

feature will remain disabled. If you enter a different number into this

Function, the new number becomes your new User Password. Existing

passwords are encoded to “hide” them in the display.

CAUTION

DO NOT LOSE YOUR PASSWORD.

If the password has been lost or forgotten, contact Toshiba for assistance.

Appendix 4: Process Control Timer Functions

F030 through F039; Overview of Process Timer Control and Time Clock Controller Features:

The following special functions allow your TE Series starter to operate automatically from an internal Process

Control Timer and Time Clock Controller (TCC) using a real time clock. The Process Control Timer (F030 and

F031) can be used independently or together with the TCC feature (F032-39). The TCC requires using the

Process Control Timer to provide for Start commands (depending on the selected mode). Time progression and

clock values can be read in the Status Screen (see section 5.3.1).

A convenient chart at the end of this appendix shows all settings and interactions.

F030 = Process Control Timer Selection

Factory Setting = 0 (Disabled)

Range = 0, 1, 2

This function enables a Process Control Timer, which offers

two operating modes (Minimum Batch Run Timer and

Permissive Run Timer), selected by entering 1 or 2 here.

F030 = 1: Minimum Batch Run Timer

In this mode, the Process Control Timer engages that the

motor will run for a minimum amount of time, regardless of

whether someone stops it intentionally, or power fails and

returns. When selected to Minimum Run Timer, it begins

counting down after a Start command. The Time Value is set in

F031. When the time value reaches [0000] the starter will turn

off, even if the Start command is still closed and without a Stop

command.

To Reset the timer in this mode, give a Stop command after the

timer has expired. If using the TCC (F032), reset is automatic

when completed and no other Run command is present.

If a Stop Command, power failure or Fault trip occurs during

timed operation, the Process Control Timer is suspended and

maintains its value. When the starter is then restarted, the timer

resumes counting down to ensure that the motor has run for the

programmed amount of time (finishes the batch).

Use this function to ensure that a load operates for a minimum amount

of time regardless of other circumstances. Examples would be:

Irrigation pumps where a specific amount of pumping time is

required even if the pump is shut down on a low level alarm and

then resets, or power fails and returns.

Mixers that need to agitate for a specific amount of time yet

may be shut down when power fails or as product is added.

Aeration Blowers that must be run for minimum amounts of

time to ensure that proper aeration (contact time) has been

provided to a tank.

NOTE:

In 2-wire control systems where the Run command is maintained, the

starter will automatically restart after a power failure or a Trip is reset.

Use appropriate warnings as mentioned in section 3.1.3.b (see the

following F032 description for an exception to this).

In 3-wire control systems, a new Start command will be required to

restart the starter.

Programming the Minimum Run Timer Functions

NOTE on interaction with other functions:

When used with F028 (Auto-Restart Delay), the Minimum Batch

Timer will not resume counting down until F028 has expired and the

starter has restarted. When used with 3 wire control, it may be

necessary to maintain a Start Command until after F028 has

expired, or repeat it if momentary.

When used with F049 – F050 (Lockout Protection features), the

Minimum Batch Timer will not resume counting down until those

settings have been satisfied and the TE Series starter has

restarted. When used with 3-wire control, it may be necessary to

maintain a Start Command until after they are satisfied, or repeat it

if momentary.

When used with the Pump Flex Decel feature, the Decel Time

(F027) is counted as part of the Batch Run time for this feature.

F030 = 2: Permissive Run Timer.

In this mode, the Process Control Timer engages differently

according to the settings of the Time Clock Controller (TCC).

When the TCC is set to 0 (using “One Shot” operation), the

Process Control Timer begins counting down after the first Start

command. Subsequent stop and start commands have no

further affect on the timer status and can be used to fully control

the starter. When the timer finishes (F031 = [0000]), the starter

will shut off. Upon the next Start command, the timer will reset

and begin counting down again. In 2 wire control systems, the

starter will shut off even if the Run command is still closed, and

will only reset after the Run command has been cycled (opened

and reclosed).

Use this function in without the Time Clock Controller (One-Shot mode)

to ensure that a load only operates for a maximum of the

programmed amount of time, beginning with the first Start

command. Examples would be:

Pumps where the failure of a stop float may lead to dry run

conditions if allowed to operate too long, or when the pump only

needs to run when someone is present, but operate

automatically via float switched (pump-out for service).

Ventilation Blowers where operation is controlled by a manual

switch but may be inadvertently left on when someone leaves.

When the TCC is set for 1 through 8 (using Start Event Cycles),

the timer begins counting down immediately when a Start

Event is activated. Any Start / Stop Command that is given to

the starter during this time will work normally. When the timer

finishes (F031 = [0000]), the starter will shut off, and Start /

Stop commands will no longer function until the next Start

Event Cycle (SEC). In 2 wire control systems, If a Run

command is already present when the SEC occurs, it will make

no difference and the starter will start.

Reset of the Permissive Run Timer will occur only when the

next Start Event Cycle is activated by the Time Clock Controller,

or when changes are made to programming (see NOTE on

programming changes (see “Important NOTE” on page 80).

Loss of control power without program changes will NOT reset

the time.

Use this function in conjunction with the Time Clock Controller to ensure

that a load only operates during the programmed amount of

time, beginning with the Start Event Cycle. Examples would be:

Air compressors where leaking of air lines during normal

downtime causes the compressor to run unnecessarily

Irrigation pumps where operation during parts of the day is

undesirable.

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

IMPORTANT NOTE: When F030 or F031 is changed in program mode, the timer

will not respond to the new settings until after control power has been cycled (off

and back on again).

F032 = Time Clock Controller (TCC)

Factory Setting = 0 (One Shot)

Range = 1 - 8 settings

This function is used to select the operating mode of the 24hr /

7 Day Time Clock Controller (TCC).

F032 = 0 operates the SEC in a “One-Shot” mode (factory

default setting). When set to 0, the Process Timer (F030)

responds only to each NEW hard-wired START input command.

Use this setting to allow the Process Control Timer to

operate without the TCC.

For safety purposes when using 2 wire control systems in this

mode only, if power fails and the START/RUN command is

present when power is restored, the starter will ignore this

command until the input is cycled Off and back On (terminals

TB1-1 and 3 are opened and reclosed).

For automatic operations, F032 can also set the number of

days in which the TCC will repeat a Start Event Cycle (SEC).

Each Start Event Cycle consists of from 1 to 7 Start Events as

programmed in F033 through F039 below. Start Events can be

non-sequential (see NOTE below).

F032 = 1 operates the SEC every day of the week.

F032 = 2 operates the SEC every 2 days (every other day)

F032 = 3 operates the SEC every 3^rdday.

F032 = 4 operates the SEC every 4^thday.

F032 = 5 operates the SEC every 5^thday.

F032 = 6 operates the SEC every 6^thday

F032 = 7 operates the SEC 1 day per week.

F032 = 8 operates the SEC for a single 24HR event, non-

repeating. Use this for testing or for “walk away” operations that

need to run after you leave but not again.

Start Event Cycles allow the use of a Start Command (2-wire or

3-wire) ONLY AFTER the time of the Start Event has passed

(logic state AND). In a 3-wire control system, this is similar to

having an Enable switch in series with the Stop button. In a 2-

wire control system, this is similar to having and Enable

contacts in series with the Run contact. The Stop Button (or

opening the Run contact) will always work to shut down the TE

Series starter. If F032 is set to anything other than 0, the

normal Start – Stop functions will no longer work except as

shown above.

Each Start Event is a timed operation based on the Process

Timer settings in F030 above.

CAUTION

If F030 = 0 (Disabled), the TCC will be ignored. So if F032 = 1-8 and F030 = 0, the

starter will not operate!

Make sure that if F030 = 0, F032 = 0 as well.

the starter will run the motor according to the selections entered

into F030 and for the time entered into F031.

F034 = Event #2 Start Time Same as above, except for event #2

TE Series

Digital Solid State Soft Starters 18 – 1250A

Appendix 5 – External Overload Relay Applications

Your TE Series starter comes equipped with a very intelligent internal

electronic overload protection system, and does not need an external

Over Load Relay (OLR). There are instances however where external

OLRs are needed or desired because of the application. These fall into

three categories; Higher Level Protection systems, Redundant Backup

applications and Special Motor applications.

NOTE:

If the Decel Function is activated (F024), additional consideration

must be put into determining how the starter is to operate in the

event of an Over Load Trip. See Section 5.6.5 for issues regarding

this application.

HIGHER LEVEL PROTECTION SYSTEMS

Because of a desire for uniformity and/or operator familiarity in some

facilities, Motor Protection Relays or other coordinated OEM protection

systems may be used in lieu of the TE Series protection (even though

most of the features are the same or better). In these instances the TE

Series Over Load protection can simply be turned off, deferring

protection to the external devices. Care should be taken however to

ensure that the external device is properly wired into the starter control

circuit to facilitate shutdown of the motor. The TE Series provides a

PTC input that can be wired to the NC aux contact of the external

device so that a trip will still shut down the TE Series and be

annunciated on the display. See section 4.7.2.a for more details on

using the PTC input.

REDUNDANT BYPASS STARTER APPLICATIONS:

In some applications, it may be necessary to provide an independent

means of starting and protecting the motor should be TE Series starter

become inoperable. If this were the case, the Bypass Contactor could

be used for Across-the-Line (D.O.L) starting of the motor. The TE…BP

version with Integral Bypass Contactors is designed for that possibility,

as long as the starter is properly selected when ordered. To do so,

select the starter based upon the ATL (Across-the-Line) selection chart

so that the contactor is rated for ATL duty instead of the normal Shunt

Duty (see section 1.2.3 for Selection charts).

Under normal operations, the Bypass Contactor is controlled internally

by the TE Series PC board and an internal pilot relay. For redundant

backup purposes however, terminals B1 and B2 of TB4 are provided for

field connection of a dry contact closure in parallel to the pilot relay

contact, allowing control even if the electronics are out of service. AC

control power must still be applied to TB2 terminals A1 and A2, but no

other electronics or power supplies need to be functioning. It is in this

instance that an external OLR must be added to the motor power circuit

and wired into that coil control circuit. TB4 is located in different areas of

each frame size in the TE Series. Refer to the following diagram for the

location on your unit.

Figure APP5.2: TE Wiring for Across-the-Line Bypass Operation with External Overload Relay

(Only the terminals necessary for this operation are shown)

In this example:

The Start / Run command (2-wire or 3-wire) energizes a control Relay

“CR”. If the selector Switch is in the “SS” (Soft Start) position, the

contact of CR closes the 24VDC control signal to TB1, terminals 1 and 3

of the TE Series, which begins ramping. When At-Speed status is

reached, an internal Bypass Pilot Relay is used to close the Bypass

Contactor. While in this mode, the TE Series CPU provides full motor

protection, even when the Bypass Contactor closes.

When the Selector Switch is placed in the “A-T-L” (Across-the-Line)

position, a 2^ndisolated contact of CR is used to close the circuit between

B1 and B2 of TB4 which are internally connected in parallel to the

Bypass Pilot Relay contact in the Bypass Contactor coil circuit. Since

the TE Series electronics may be out of service, an External Overload

is added which only works in this mode and protects the motor by

dropping out the connection between B1 and B2.

CAUTION

The circuit on TB-4 is at the same potential as the AC control voltage, but should not be

directly connected to it. PC board damage may result.

Appendix 5 (cont.) External OL Relay Applications

SPECIAL MOTOR APPLICATIONS

Multiple Motors

When more than one motor is connected downstream from the TE

Series starter, the internal electronic overload protection cannot provide

proper protection of the individual motors. Codes require the use of

separate OLRs for each motor, which would need to be external

devices.

In these instances the TE Series Over Load protection should be turned

off, deferring protection to the separate OLRs. Care should be taken to

ensure that the External OLR is properly wired into the starter control

circuit to facilitate shutdown of the motor. The TE Series provides a

PTC input that can be wired to the NC auxiliary contact of the external

OLR so that a trip will still shut down the TE Series and be annunciated

on the display. Multiple OLRs would then be wired in series for the

same effect. See section 4.7.2.a for details on using the PTC input.

In this example:

The TE Series is used ahead of an existing 2S2W starter, which

already has separate OLRs for each speed. Dry Aux. contacts of the

2S2W starter are used to provide a Run command to the TE Series so

that all existing controls can be used. In addition, another dry Aux. of the

Fast contactor is used to select Ramp 2. When started in Slow, Ramp 1

(default) is used. If started in Fast, different ramp settings are necessary

so Ramp 2 is used. (See section 4.2.5.a for Dual Ramp info.)

Either OLR will trip the TE Series, which will display [ Ptc] and light
