Function: Motor Temperature
Setting: E
In addition to or in place of the OL1 (Motor Overload) fault of the Drive, it is possible to use a PTC (Positive Temperature 
Coefficient) thermistor for motor insulation protection. The PTC thermistors are built into the windings of some motors and 
will vary their resistance based on temperature. An example PTC characteristic is show below.
Fig. 72 PTC Thermistor Temperature-Resistance Value Characteristics 
Connection of the thermistor to the Drive is shown below, in addition make sure Dip Switch S1-2 is in the OFF position, see Figure 55.
