Setting the Motor FLA
The product should now be configured and communicating on the network.
The last step is to program the proper motor FLA setting (parameter #106).
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.
The Overload Trip class for the Bulletin 283 Distributed Motor Controller is
class 10.
The proper motor protection is now in place.
