Maximum Number of Starts
Description
The maximum number of starts function helps to prevents the damage to the motor from frequent starts. This function allows the motor to start only for a pre-specified number within a given period of time. If the number of starts exceeds the set value, then this function keeps the LTMT main unit in inhibit mode, which helps to prevent any further motor start.
