• Reset Thermal Models
NOTE
This function is protected by the security access code.
The LV-DS's advanced thermal modelling software constantly monitors the motor's performance. This allows
the LV-DS to calculate the motor's temperature and ability to start successfully at any time. If the LV-DS is
configured for use on two motors, each motor's temperature is modelled separately.
The thermal model for the active motor can be reset if required.
1. Open the Setup Tools.
2. Scroll to Reset Thermal Models and press ENTER.

CAUTION
Resetting the motor thermal model may compromise motor life and should only be done in the
case of emergency.
