Setting the Motor FLA and Overload Trip Class
The product should now be configured and communicating on the network.
The last step is to program the proper motor FLA setting (parameter #106)
and overload trip class (parameter #107). This can be accomplished by
using software such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet or a handheld DeviceNet
tool.
Use the software to access the device parameters screen. By default the
motor FLA is set to the minimum FLA setting for the device and the
overload trip class is set to 10. Set these parameters to the desired values
and download to the device.
Select FLA setting (parameter #106) and enter a value that corresponds to
the FLA of the motor connected to the ArmorStart. Make sure the Single
radio button is selected and then select Download to Device.
Select Overload Class (parameter #107) and choose the overload trip class
to be used with the motor connected to the ArmorStart. The ArmorStart can
be set up for trip class 10, 15, or 20. Make sure the Single radio button is
selected and then select Download to Device.
The proper motor protection is now in place.
