Operation
• Parameter 7D Input A Initial Delay: sets a delay before the soft starter monitors the
state of the input, after the start signal. For example, a delay may be required to
allow time for pipeline pressure to build up.
• Parameter 7J Input A Name: select a name, eg 'Input A Trip' (optional).
