LTMT Main Unit
The LTMT main unit is the main module of the TeSys Tera system which co-ordinates with different modules to provide features like protection, control, monitor, data storage, communication, and so on.
The LTMT main unit is available with following communication protocols:
- Modbus RTU
-
PROFIBUS DP
The advantages of the LTMT main unit are:
-
The LTMT main unit provides power to the LTMTCT/LTMTCTV sensor module and LTMT expansion units.
-
The LTMT main unit is independent of LTMTCT/LTMTCTV sensor module type. The LTMT main unit can be used for current-based protection or current and voltage-based protections.
-
The LTMT main unit can be mounted on top of the LTMTCT/LTMTCTV sensor module, which reduces width of basic module.
Except communication interface, all the LTMT main unit connections remain same in all variants.
For more information on TeSys Tera installation, refer to TeSys Tera Motor Management System Installation Guide – DOCA0356EN.

Trip/Reset Button
Use the Reset button to perform the following functions:
Function |
Description |
Procedure |
---|---|---|
Trip reset |
Resets all trips that can be reset. |
Press the button and release it within 3 s. |
Self test |
Performs a self test if:
|
Press and hold the button for more than 3 s not exceeding 15 s. |
Return to default values |
Returns the LTMT main unit parameters to default values if the motor is in Stop state. If the motor is in Start or Run state, the return to default values is ignored. |
Press and hold the button for more than 15 s not exceeding 20 s. When the button is pressed for more than 15 s, the Trip/Alarm LED blinks in blue color. The controller parameters are reset to their default values when the button is released. |
Induce a trip |
Put the LTMT main unit into internal trip condition. |
Press and hold the button for more than 20 s. TheLTMT main unit trips and trip is recorded in the Trips log. |
Digital Inputs
The LTMT main unit has four potential free digital inputs (type 1 according to EN61131-2 standard).
The digital inputs can be powered through either of the following ways:
-
Internally by the LTMT main unit.
-
By an external power supply. The input supply voltage is 24 Vdc ± 15%.
When the digital inputs are powered internally, the four digital inputs I.1, I.2, I.3, and I.4 can be used.
When the digital inputs are powered by an external 24 Vdc power supply, only the three digital inputs I.1, I.2, and I.4 can be used. The digital input I.3 is connected to the external power supply.

UNIntended equipment operation
When motor is running with starter:
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.
|
The LTMT main unit has three digital outputs:
-
Two outputs with NO contacts
-
One output with NO+NC contacts
LTMT Main Unit Temperature
One 2-wire PT100 or PTC temperature sensor can be connected to the LTMT main unit.
Expansion Port
The expansion port is used to connect optional LTMT expansion units with the LTMT main unit. All expansion units are connected in daisy chain.
LTMT HMI Port
The LTMT HMI port is used to connect the optional LTMTCUF control operator unit with the LTMT main unit. For more information on cables, refer Cables section.
The pinout of the shielded RJ45 connector of the LTMT HMI port is as follows:
