5.2 Removing and replacing the keypad
The keypad can be removed from the soft starter and mounted remotely on a panel using the remote mounting kit.
The keypad stores a backup copy of the parameters in the soft starter, so one keypad can be used to program multiple Digistart IS
starters.
The keypad can be removed or replaced while the starter is running. It is not necessary to remove mains or control
voltage.
It is the installer's responsibility to ensure that any enclosure which allows access to models IS2x0145B to IS4x1000B
and IS3x0255N to IS561600N while the product is energized, provides protection against contact and ingress
requirements of IP20.
5.2.1 Removing the keypad
The keypad is attached to the body of the soft starter by a DB9 serial connector and two screws. The screws are concealed behind
a snap-on faceplate.
To remove the keypad:
1. Models IS1x0023B to IS4x1000B: open the Digistart IS's door.
Models IS3x0255N to IS561600N: remove the Digistart IS's front cover.
2. Insert a small screwdriver under the faceplate, at the base of the keypad, and use the screwdriver to lever the faceplate off
the keypad.
3. Lift the faceplate off completely.
4. Remove the two screws holding the keypad in place.
5. Lift the keypad gently off the soft starter. Pull the keypad forwards, to avoid damaging the DB9 connector.
