Apparatus and method for programming and reviewing a plurality of parameters of an electrical switching device

摘要

An electrical switching device (2) such as a motor starter (2) includes separable contacts (20); a coil (22) for operating the separable contacts (20); two light emitting diode (LED) indicators (10,12) having a plurality of states; a pushbutton switch (8); and a control circuit (6,26) responsive to the pushbutton switch (8) employing a plurality of parameters (54) for controlling operation of the coil (22) and the indicators (10,12), with the control circuit (6,26) having a setup mode (74) and including a microcomputer (26) for detecting actuation (80) of the pushbutton switch (8) to enter the setup mode (74), indicating (81) a first one of the states on the indicators (10,12) corresponding to a first one of the parameters (54), and detecting de-actuation (82) of the pushbutton switch (8) to indicate a value of the first parameter on the indicators (10,12).
