12.1. Communication Modules
LV-DS soft starters support network communication via easy-to-install communications modules. Each soft
starter can support one communications module at a time.
Available protocols:
Ethernet (Profinet, Modbus TCP, Ethernet IP), Profibus, DeviceNet, Modbus RTU, and USB.
12.2. Remote Control Panel (RCP)
A remote mounted keypad can be installed with the LV-DS. The keypad can be mounted up to 3 metres away
from the starter, for control and monitoring.
The starter can be controlled and programmed from either the remote keypad or the keypad on the starter.
Both displays show the same information.
The remote keypad also allows parameter settings to be copied between soft starters.
12.3. Finger Guard Kit
Finger guards may be specified for personnel safety. Finger guards fit over the soft starter terminals to prevent
accidental contact with live terminals. Finger guards provide IP20 protection when correctly installed.
NOTE
Finger guards can be used on soft starter models LV-DS-0145B~LV-DS-1000B (internally bypassed
models only). Different kits are required for different models.
12.4. PC Software
WinMaster PC software provides monitoring, programming and control of up to 99 soft starters.
A Modbus or USB communication module is required for each starter to use WinMaster.
