Siemens Soft Starter
The Siemens soft starter is used on hydraulic controllers.
Figure 1: Siemens Soft Starter
Equipment/Settings Verification
Set and verify the equipment matches the job specific parameters for proper operation. See
Hydro:Evolved sheet 3 Table for more information.
Figure 2: Example of Parameter Table

Soft Starter Startup Manual Siemens

Grounding Requirements
NOTE: A proper and effective building ground connection is required for the safe and successful
operation of the controller.
Examples of a proper building-to-controller ground are as follows:
1. Attach the ground wire to the street side of a water main.
2. Attach the ground wire to a grounding rod in the pit.
The controller has a common ground bus terminal connection.
Figure 3: Ground Bus Terminal
•The building, motor, transformer, and filter(s) must all share a common ground. This
removes ground loops, limits impedance, and routes noise into the ground.
Wiring
A checklist must be completed during the soft starter wiring process. See Appendix 2 for
terminal location.
Power
Perform the following to connect power. See the Hydro:Evolved sheet 7 for job specific
information.
•Connect main line power L1/L2/L3 to soft starter.
•Connect the ground wire to the green terminal screw on the soft starter mounting plate.

Valve Board
Perform the following to wire the valve solenoids:
1. Connect CL and CH from the Valve board to BN± on the MR board.
2. Connect NTS output from the MR board to NTS input on the Valve board.
3. Connect SAFE output from the MR board to SAFE input on the Valve board.
4. Connect Neutral from the valves to N on the Valve board.
5. Connect UPH, UPL, DNH, and DNL from the solenoids to the Valve board.
Motor/Soft Starter
Perform the following to connect the soft starter to the motor. See the See the Hydro:Evolved
sheet 8for job specific information for job specific information.
1. Connect SS fault input from Soft starter to 506 on the MR board.
2. Connect the Start Motor (SM) on the Valve board to the soft starter.
Perform the following for a 6-Lead Delta Wiring.
1. Connect the 6/12-Lead motor lead to terminals T1/T2/T3 on the soft starter and
T6/T4/T5 on the fault connector.

Operation
Run the car and complete the checklist during the verification process.
No Faults
Make sure the car is moving without triggering a fault either on the MR board or the soft
starter. If the MR board displays a soft starter fault, look at the soft starter to see what the fault
is. See Soft Starter Fault for troubleshooting faults.
Proper Direction
Make sure the car is moving in the same direction as the control switch on the Run Box. See
Wrong Direction for troubleshooting proper direction faults.
At Speed
Make sure the car is moving in both directions and at the proper inspection speed. If the
inspection speed is equal to contract speed the car should move at high speed. If the inspection
speed is less than contract speed the car should move with leveling speed. See Car Not Moving
or Too Slow for troubleshooting at speed faults.

Soft Starter Startup Manual Siemens
January 30,2021 ©2021 Smartrise Engineering, Inc. All Rights Reserved Page 9
Under Control
Make sure that the car is moving under full control. The car should stop when commanded
from the Run Box. Verify that the car runs with no faults for 10 seconds or more. See No
Control for troubleshooting under control faults.
Troubleshooting
The following sections list troubleshooting procedures.
Soft Starter Fault
If the Smartrise controller indicates a soft starter fault and the soft starter has the fault LED
flashing, see Appendix 1 Siemens LCD Troubleshooting Chart.
Wrong Direction
If the motor is running in the wrong direction, swap any two motor leads.
Car Not Moving or Too Slow
If the car is not moving or to slow perform the following:
•If the car does not move, verify that the valve relays are turning on when a direction is
given (for example, UPL and SM for the Up direction and DNL for the Down direction.
•Measure the outputs to verify that the Valve board is working properly. If the proper
voltages are present, check the wiring and the valves.
•Adjust the valves as required to get proper starts, stops, and run speeds.
•Verify the valve status by navigating to STATUS | VALVE 1 STATUS.
No Control
If there is no control perform the following:
•Verify the SFM and SFP relay are high when commanding the car to move.
•Verify the fault contactor is engaging when the car is commanded in either direction but
the pump motor only comes on in the Up direction.
•Verify 120 VAC is present when the car is being commanded to run on the MR board for:
•UPH
•UPL
•DNH
•DNL

T3 to left leg, bottom of Fault Contactor.
For In Line Applications, the following:
Measurements should be less than 10
ohms.
T1 to T2, T2 to T3, T3 to T1 Connect
wiring if necessary.
Fault contactor is
not being energized.
Verify that the fault contactor is being
energized after power up. You should
hear it pull in then drop out upon power
up.
If not, measure the voltage from
terminal 9 to terminal 12. This should be
110 VAC.
Correct any wiring errors if necessary.
Connect a voltmeter to terminals 9 and
12. Push the up and down arrows
simultaneously and look for the voltage
to appear briefly across these terminals.
Correct any wiring errors if necessary.
If the particular elevator’s controls
require the fault contactor be cycled
with each run, the starter can be
configured to check for motor wiring
faults only when the motor run
command is initiated. Consult technical
support for further assistance.
