14.11.6 Line contactor control
Overview
The optional line contactor disconnects the converter from the line supply and therefore reduces
the converter losses when the motor is not in operation.

Requirement
The line contactor control requires a 24 V power supply of the converter.
The 24 V power supply must be maintained, even when the line contactor is open.
Description of function
The converter controls its own line contactor using signal r0863.1 via a digital output.
The converter monitors the line contactor feedback signal in signal c0860.
When feedback signal is activated, parameter p0861 denes the monitoring time of the line
contactor. If the feedback signal is not available for longer than the time set in p0861, then
the converter issues a fault.
