S811+ Operating Configuration
Introduction
The S811+ has a wide range of operation and protection 
parameters to enable coordinated motor and load protection. 
Commonly used parameters are directly accessible through 
the Digital Interface Module (DIM).
The unit is supplied with default settings that accommodate 
general induction motor applications that provide very basic 
motor protection. The user should adjust the parameters to 
their specific application.
