• Automatic mode (①)
• Automatic operation - input controlled (②)
1)
• Operating mode manual - bus (③)

Supported by soft starter 3RW55 with rmware version V2.1 or higher and soft starter 3RW55 Failsafe with rmware version 
V1.1.0 or higher
2)
Combination of the message bits not possible for 3RW50, 3RW52, 3RW55 soft starters with rmware version earlier than V2.1 
and 3RW55 Failsafe soft starters with rmware version V1.0.0. For soft starters 3RW55 from rmware version V2.1 and soft 
starters 3RW55 Failsafe with rmware version V1.1.0 or higher if the digital inputs have master control by activating the 
"Manual operation local - input controlled" bit in the process image output (PIQ). The PLC can fetch back control at any time.
3)
Combining the message bits is possible for 3RW50, 3RW52, 3RW55 and 3RW55 Failsafe soft starters. For soft starters 3RW55 
from rmware version V2.1 and soft starters 3RW55 Failsafe with rmware version V1.1.0 or higher only if the input action 
"Operating mode manual - local" has been parameterized and activated.
For more information on setting the operating mode, see chapter Operating modes and master 
control function (Page 24).
