Functional Description
S811+ Soft Starter MN03900001E—November 2012 29
AUTO RESET
Reset Mode—Three (3) modes of resetting Fault Trips are 
available:
0–Manual—Requires pressing Reset button on DIM, 
pressing Reset button on the face of the S811+, or by 
providing a signal to an Input Control Terminal configured 
for this function (Terminal 4 default).
1–AUTO—The S811+ firmware attempts to clear any 
active Fault Trips.
2–Powerup Reset—The S811+ will perform a Fault 
Reset action after the unit has completed the initialization 
process when 24 Vdc control power is applied. Fault trip 
reset action then reverts to Manual
Auto Reset Delay Timer—When the Reset Mode is set to 
one (1), the S811+ will automatically reset any fault or 
warning after the reset delay time has expired and the 
condition no longer is active. The delay timer will start as 
soon as any fault is detected. If the fault is still present after 
the delay time has expired, the reset protocol will remain 
active to attempt to clear the fault trip condition. The delay 
timer is user settable with a range of 0.1 (default)—600 
seconds.
Auto Reset Count—A counter will log the number of 
successful Reset attempts. The Auto Reset Count may be 
observed in the Monitoring Menu. The Auto Reset Count will 
reset to zero (0) with each power cycle of the 24 Vdc control 
power.
Auto Reset Limit—The Auto Reset Limit is selected by the 
user, up to a maximum of 10000 Auto Reset attempts. When 
the maximum number of Auto Resets is attained, a Manual 
Reset is then required. When a Manual Reset is performed, 
the counter is set to zero (0). Setting this parameter to zero 
(0) disables the counter function.
Auto Rest Mode, Auto Reset Delay, and Auto Reset Limit 
parameters are located in the Soft Start Config. Menu.
FAULT WARNINGS
Fault Warnings do not require any reset action. The Fault 
Warning indication in the DIM is discontinued when the Fault 
Warning condition is no longer active.
