Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02 13
ESD guidelines
ESD components are destroyed by voltage and energy far below the limits of human
perception. Voltages of this kind occur as soon as a device or an assembly is touched by a
person who is not electrostatically discharged. ESD components which have been subject to
such voltage are usually not recognized immediately as being defective, because the
malfunction does not occur until after a longer period of operation.
CAUTION
Damage to the solid-state overload relay from electrostatic charging!
The solid-state overload relay contains components that are sensitive to electrostatic
discharge. These components will be destroyed or damaged by incorrect handling.
Observe ESD guidelines when handling and installing the devices.
Connection is only permitted when the power adapters have been deactivated (PELV
power adapter in accordance with IEC EN 50178).
You must discharge your body electrostatically immediately before touching an
electronic component. To do this, touch a conductive, grounded object, e.g., a bare
metal part of a switch cabinet or the water pipe.
Always hold the component by the plastic enclosure.
Electronic modules should not be brought into contact with electrically insulating
materials such as plastic film, plastic parts, insulating table supports or clothing made of
synthetic fibers.
Always place electrostatic sensitive devices on conductive bases.
Always store and transport electronic modules or components in ESD-safe conductive
packaging, e.g. metallized plastic or metal containers. Leave the component in its
packaging until installation.

Product description 3
3.1 Properties
Solid-state overload relay for IO-Link
The solid-state overload relay, comprising the 3RB24 evaluation module and a
3RB29 current measuring module, protects electrical equipment (e.g. three-phase motors)
with two different protection mechanisms: overload protection and thermistor protection.
Ground fault detection can also be enabled via IO-Link.
In conjunction with the 3RT contactors, the solid-state overload relay for IO-Link can be used
as a direct-on-line starter, reversing starter or, with the help of an additional circuit, as a star-
delta (wye-delta) starter. It is possible to read out diagnostics data, such as the current, via
IO-Link and to further process this data in the higher-level controller.

3.3 Functions
3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link
18 Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02
Overload protection/phase asymmetry/phase failure
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relays for IO-Link are modular in design and are supplied
with power via the IO-Link master. The associated 3RB29 current measuring modules can
be ordered in different sizes and cover a current range of 0.3 to 630 A. This means the right
current measuring module can be selected for every application. A current setting up to
820 A is possible in conjunction with a series transformer. The solid-state overload relays
have been designed to provide current-dependent protection for loads with normal starting
and heavy starting against impermissibly high temperature rises due to overload, phase
asymmetry or phase failure. The devices can be used as direct-on-line starters, reversing
starters or, with the help of an additional circuit, as star-delta (wye-delta) starters.
Overload, phase asymmetry or phase failure results in an increase of the motor current
beyond the set rated operational current of the motor. This increase in current is detected
using a current measuring module, and electronically analyzed by a connected 3RB24
evaluation module. The evaluation electronics send a signal to the auxiliary contacts. The
auxiliary contacts then disconnect the contactor and the load. The break time depends on
the ratio of the tripping current to the rated operational current Ie and is stored in the form of
a tripping characteristic with long-term stability (see Setting the current (rated operational
current) and trip class (Page 79)).
The status "Tripped" is signaled by an "OVERLOAD" LED showing a permanently red light
and a "DEVICE / IO-Link" LED showing a permanently red light. The "OVERLOAD" LED
flickers to indicate an imminent relay trip following violation of a limit current resulting from
overload, phase asymmetry or phase failure. This overload warning is reported as a general
warning via the IO-Link to the higher-level controller.
If, after a tripping operation, the voltage supply of the overload relay is interrupted within the
recovery time of 3 minutes, the time starts again when the supply is restored, and a period of
3 minutes must elapse before the device is ready for service again.
Thermistor protection
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relays for IO-Link offer the option of direct temperature
monitoring of the motor windings. Full motor protection is implemented by connection of a
cold conductor (PTC) sensor circuit monitored for short-circuit and wire break.
With this temperature-dependent protection, the loads can be protected against
overtemperature resulting indirectly from restricted coolant flow, for example, and
undetectable by current measurement. In the case of overtemperature, the devices shut
down the contactor and thus the loads via the auxiliary contact.
The status "Tripped" is signaled by a "THERMISTOR" LED showing a permanently red light
and a "DEVICE / IO-Link" LED showing a permanently red light.
NOTICE
To guarantee sure functioning of the short-circuit detection in the thermistor circuit, the line
resistance must not exceed 10 Ω in the case of a short-circuited thermistor.

Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02 19
Ground fault protection
To also protect the loads against high-resistance short circuits due to damage to the
insulation, humidity or condensation the solid-state overload relays for IO-Link offer the
possibility of internal ground fault detection.
Note
Internal ground fault detection is not possible in conjunction with contactor assemblies for
star-delta (wye-delta) start.
In the event of a ground fault, the relays trip instantaneously.
The "Tripped" status is signaled by means of a "GND FAULT" LED showing a permanently
red light and a "DEVICE / IO-Link" LED showing a permanently red light, and it can also be
signaled via IO-Link.
Ground fault detection can be enabled or parameterized in the solid-state overload relay
when using with motors with 3-conductor connection (without N connection). Ground fault
detection is disabled in the delivery state.
Self-monitoring
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link has a self-monitoring feature. The overload
relay constantly monitors its own basic functions and trips if an internal fault is detected.
Electrical interlock
The electrical interlock prevents simultaneous selection of direction of rotation 1 and
direction of rotation 2. If direction of rotation 1 and direction of rotation 2 are selected
simultaneously, the overload relay outputs a process image error.
The switchover time is the time provided for changing the direction of rotation. The
switchover time is 0.5 s and cannot be parameterized. The electrical interlock is also active
during the switchover time, in other words, selection of a direction of rotation only becomes
effective 0.5 s after revoking a selection signal for the other direction of rotation.

20 Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02
Residual current detection
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link has internal residual current detection and
checks for a current-free state with regard to an active or non-active control command. If not,
the device switches off and signals a fault.
A current flow is detected if the current is greater than 12% of the rated operational current.
Detection takes place 1.5 s after switching the overload relay on or off.
The table below represents the different states.

3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link
Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02 39
Use planning 4
4.1 Applications
Sectors
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link is suitable for customers from all industries
who want to ensure optimal current-dependent and temperature-dependent protection of
their electrical loads (such as motors) under normal starting and heavy starting conditions
(CLASS 5 to CLASS 30), and also minimize project runtimes, inventories and energy
consumption, and optimize plant availability and maintenance management.
Application area
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relays for IO-Link have been designed to protect three-
phase asynchronous motors and single-phase AC motors.
In addition to the protective function, these devices can be used in conjunction with
contactors as direct starters or reversing starters (star-delta start also possible) controlled via
IO-Link. This makes it possible to control drives direct via IO-Link from a higher-level
controller, or on-site using the optional hand-held operator panel, and also, for example, to
return current values direct via IO-Link.
If single-phase AC motors are to be protected with the 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for
IO-Link, the main circuits of the current measuring modules must be switched in series.
You can find more information in Chapter "Connecting (Page 69)".
Ambient conditions
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relays for IO-Link are not sensitive to external influences
such as shocks, corrosive ambient conditions, ageing, and temperature fluctuations. The
3RB24 solid-state overload relays compensate temperature in the temperature range from
–25 °C to +60 °C according to IEC/EN 60947-4-1.
You can obtain configuring information for using the devices under -25 °C or over +60 °C on
request on the Internet (www.siemens.com/industrial-controls/technical-assistance).

4.2 Special application cases
3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link
40 Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02
4.2 Special application cases
Overload relays in contactor assemblies for star-delta (wye-delta) start
When using the 3RB24 solid-state overload relay in conjunction with contactor assemblies
for star-delta (wye-delta) start, you need to bear in mind that only 0.58 times the motor
current flows through the line contactor. The solid-state overload relay mounted onto the line
contactor must be set to this level of 0.58 times the motor current.
Note
When using the 3RB24 solid-state overload relay in conjunction with contactor assemblies
for start-delta (wye-delta) start, internal ground fault detection must not be enabled on the
overload relay.
Overload protection of motors in hazardous environments
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link with monostable relays is suitable for
overload protection of explosion-proof motors. The device must only be used outside the
hazardous area for protecting explosion-proof electric motors in accordance with
RL94/9/EG Group II of Category 2 and 3 (gas: Zone 1 and 2 or dust : Zone 21 and 22).
NOTICE
When using motors in hazardous environments, the information in the Safety and
commissioning instructions
(http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/22712155) must be observed at all
times.
Operation with frequency converter
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relay is suitable for frequencies of 50/60 Hz and their
associated harmonics. This makes it possible to use the solid-state overload relay on the
input side of the frequency converter. If motor protection is required in the outgoing circuit of
the frequency converter, the 3RN thermistor motor protection devices or the 3RU thermal
overload relays are recommended.

4.2 Special application cases
3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link
Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02 41
Operation with loads in excess of 630 A rated operational current
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link can also be used for protecting loads up to
820 A by means of an external 3UF1868-3GA00 current transformer . The secondary cables
of the current transformer are looped through the three feed-through openings of the current
measuring module, and short-circuited. The secondary current of the external current
transformer is the primary current of the 3RB29 current measuring module of the
3RB24 solid-state overload relay. You can find a connection example in the Chapter "Circuit
diagrams (Page 116)".
Other current transformers can also be used for protecting loads with a rated operational
current greater than 630 A. The current transformers used must have the following
characteristics:
Secondary current: 1 A
Frequency: 50 Hz/60 Hz
Recommended transformer rating:2.5 VA (depending on the secondary current and
cable length)
Overcurrent factor: 5P10 or 10P10
Accuracy class: 1
NOTICE
If the main circuit is using rated current, the secondary current of the current transformer
must be within the setting range of the current measuring module used!
Example
3UF1868-3GA00 current transformer:
Primary: 820 A with rated operational current
Secondary current: 1 A
3RB24 solid-state overload relay with 3RB2906-2BG1 current measuring module with a
setting current of 0.3 A to 3.0 A.
The secondary current of the current transformer is 1 A at rated load and is, therefore, within
the 0.3 to 3.0 A setting range of the current measuring module used. The setting current Ie in
the 3RB24 solid-state overload relay is 1 A.
If the analog value transfer function is used, the transformation ratio must be taken into
account: The transferred value of 1 A corresponds to an actual current of 820 A when using
the external 3UF1868-3GA00 current transformer with a transformation ratio of 820 at rated
operational current.

48 Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02
5.3 Module replacement
5.3.1 Module replacement (replacement of an IO-Link device)
Parameter data and configuration data specially optimized for a specific application are
stored in an IO-Link Device. This data deviates in many cases from the default values stored
in the IO-Link Device.
In the event of replacement of an IO-Link Device (referred to below as "module"), the
optimized data must be transferred to the new module.
Data can be transferred via two channels:
Module replacement with PG/PC
Module replacement without PG/PC
5.3.2 Module replacement with PG/PC
Procedure
In the event of a replacement, a PG/PC is available with the SIMATIC project of the plant.
With the data stored in the SIMATIC project, and the S7-PCT, you transfer the parameters
belonging to the replaced Device to the new Device.

Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02 49
5.3.3 Module replacement without PG/PC
Procedure
On completion of commissioning, a PG/PC with the project is no longer available. For
backing up and restoring the parameter data and configuration data from or to a module, the
function block (FB) "IOL_Call" is available for the SIMATIC controllers of the S7-300 and S7-
400 families.
With this function block, you back up all relevant data records of a module after
commissioning, in a data block (DB), for example. In the event of a replacement, you write
the relevant data from the data block to the replaced module with the IOL_Call.
Refer to the Appendix "Data sets (Page 120)" for data records to be backed up in the case of
a module.
Note
An IO-Link Device is a module that communicates with the IO-Link master via its
communication connection. With the special cases "SIRIUS 3RA64/65 compact starter " and
"SIRIUS 3RA2711 function modules", where group formations of up to four starters are
possible, the above information refers to the replacement of the first load feeder.
Replacement of load feeders 2 to 4 of a group of four does not require any supplementary
measures.
Requirements
Install the demo project "IOL-CALL".
You can download the "IOL-CALL" and the description from the Internet
(http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/33102519/133100).
Copy the IO-Link Call function block FB1 (including data block DB10) to a STEP 7
project.
Use the IO-Link Call function block FB1 as described in the demo project.

The 3RB24 solid-state overload relay is set to the rated operational current Ie with two rotary
switches.
Upper rotary switch
The upper rotary switch (CLASS / I MAX) is divided into 4 ranges: 1 A, 10 A, 100 A and
1000 A. The relevant range must be selected depending on the rated operational current Ie of
the motor and the current measuring module to be used with this. Within the selected range,
the necessary trip class must be determined (CLASS 5, CLASS 10, CLASS 20 or
CLASS 30).

⇒ Ie = 0.9 A
Note
The motor, cables and contactor must be designed for the corresponding
trip class (CLASS).
Check the CLASS setting before initial commissioning.
Select the relevant tripping characteristic with the rotary switch for the trip classes
(CLASS / I MAX).
Note
With the help of the sealable cover 3RB2984-2, you can secure the rotary switches against
inadvertent operation. Assembly of the sealable cover is described in Chapter "Mounting the
sealing cover (Page 65)"
Note
The set rated operational current can be read out via IO-Link for documentation purposes,
for example.
Example
Three-phase motor power = 45 kW (AC 50 Hz, 400 V)
Rated operational current of the motor = 80 A
Required trip class = CLASS 20
Selected transformer: 10 to 100 A
Solution:
Step 1: Select the area 100 A using the upper rotary switch (CLASS / I MAX)
Step 2: Set the trip class CLASS 20 within the range 100 A
Step 3: Set the lower rotary switch to 80% (= 0.8) in accordance with 100 A × 0.8 = 80 A.
Note
If the current set on the evaluation module does not match the current range of the
connected current transformer, a diagnostics message results.
You can find more information on the errors in Chapter "Fault codes (only in the case of non-
acknowledgeable faults) (Page 104)".

3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link
Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02 81
Trip classes
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link is suitable for normal starting conditions
and heavy starting conditions. Depending on the prevailing starting condition, the required
trip class CLASS 5, CLASS 10, CLASS 20 or CLASS 30 can be set using a rotary switch.
Note
The set trip class can be read out via IO-Link for documentation purposes, for example.
Tripping characteristics
The tripping characteristics map the relationship between tripping time and tripping current
as a multiple of the rated operational current Ie ; they are specified for symmetrical 3-pole
loading and 2-pole loading from cold.
Minimum tripping current
The lowest current at which tripping will occur is known as the minimum tripping current.
According to IEC 60947-4-1, the minimum tripping current must be within defined limits. In
the case of the 3RB24 solid-state overload relay, the limits for the minimum tripping current
with symmetrical 3-pole loading are between 105 and 120% of the rated operational current.
Tripping times
The minimum tripping current determines the progression of the tripping characteristic up to
higher tripping currents based on the characteristics of the trip classes. The trip classes
describe time intervals within which the solid-state overload relays for IO-Link have to trip in
the case of a symmetrical, 3-pole load from the cold state with 7.2 times the rated
operational current Ie.
The tripping times according to IEC/EN 60947-4-1, tolerance band E, are shown in the table
below.

Tripping characteristics for 2-pole load
In the case of a phase failure or current unbalance > 40 % (in accordance with NEMA), the
3RB24 solid-state overload relay disconnects the contactor faster to minimize the
temperature rise of the load. This operation takes place in accordance with the tripping
characteristic for two-pole load from cold.

Figure 10-4 Tripping characteristic for 2-pole load
The characteristic curves apply for cold restart. In the case of a start with preloading, the
tripping times tA are lower.
Tripping time in the case of loads at operating temperature
Compared with a cold load, a load at operating temperature obviously has a lower
temperature reserve. It is for this reason that the tripping time of the 3RB24 solid-state
overload relay is reduced to approximately 30% following prolonged loading with the rated
operational current Ie.
Operation
10.2 Activating/deactivating thermistor protection
3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link
84 Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02
10.2 Activating/deactivating thermistor protection
Activation
The thermistor protection function is disabled in the delivery state. If the device detects a
connected thermistor when switched on, the thermistor is automatically activated. If the
thermistor is removed, the thermistor function must also be deactivated by the user,
otherwise, a diagnostics message is generated. You can find more information on the faults
in Chapter "Fault codes (only in the case of non-acknowledgeable faults) (Page 104)".
Deactivation
If you press and hold down the TEST/RESET button while switching on the control voltage
(L+ / L-), the THERMISTOR LED lights up. If you now release the button within 3 s, the
thermistor function is deactivated. This is indicated by flashing of the THERMISTOR LED at
7 s intervals.
NOTICE
Danger of false short-circuit detection!
To guarantee sure functioning of the short-circuit detection in the thermistor circuit, the line
resistance must not exceed 10 Ω in the case of a short-circuited thermistor.
Note
The "Thermistor - monitoring" parameter can be read out via IO-Link for documentation
purposes, for example. This parameter cannot be set or modified via IO-Link.

86 Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02
10.4 Carrying out self-test
TEST function
The proper function of the ready overload relay can be checked by pressing the
TEST/RESET button.
The following functions are tested:
LEDs
Device hardware
Device configuration (GND FAULT, THERMISTOR): The actively parameterized functions
are tested.
Test phases
The test phase runs while the TEST/RESET button remains pressed for 6 seconds. During
the test phase, direct current is output at the terminals of the analog output. After
24 seconds, the auxiliary contacts are closed and the feeder is thus disconnected. The self-
test has been completed.
The self-test can be aborted at any time by releasing the TEST/RESET button.
Resetting the relay after test triggering
Following a successful self-test, the relays are in the OFF state. To be able to switch the
relays again, you must acknowledge the end of the test. For this purpose, press the
TEST/RESET button again for longer than 1 s.
The relays respond differently depending on whether the overload relay is controlled at this
time via IO-Link or via the operator panel:
1. Control via IO-Link (automatic mode)
After acknowledging the test, the switching signals DO 0.0 and DO 0.1 pending from the
controller are valid. The relays therefore assume the states requested by the controller
immediately after acknowledgment of the test. The reset mode of the device (automatic
reset/manual reset) is irrelevant.
2. Control via operator panel (manual mode):
After acknowledgment of the test, you must switch the relays on again manually. The
reset mode of the device (automatic reset/manual reset), and the switching signals
pending from the controller (DO 0.0 and D0 0.1) are irrelevant.

3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link
Manual, 12/2011, GWA 4NEB 969 1656-02 DS 02 87
Carrying out self-test
The self-test is initiated by pressing the TEST/RESET button for t > 1 s. All protection
functions remain active during the self-test. A trip/warning results in abort of the self-test. The
self-test is also carried out if the TEST/RESET button is pressed for t > 1 s at the moment of
switching on the overload relay.
Note
Regular tests of the device are described in EN 60079-17.
The self-test of the 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link encompasses a full function
test. All the test phases described in the table below must be executed. The individual test
phases are the display test (1), the configuration test (2), the internal test with current
measurement (3), the relay test (4) and the acknowledgment (5).
The measured current values and the correct opening and closing of the relay contacts (test
phase 4) must be checked by the user!

10.5 Performing a reset
Possible reset settings
When you confirm a fault, you confirm that you have taken account of the fault message.
You acknowledge fault messages with the Reset function.
You determine the reset method with the slide switch for AUTO/MAN RESET. You can
choose between manual and automatic reset. The position of the slide switch for AUTO/MAN
RESET is continuously read in by the controller during operation.
Automatic reset: Automatic reset only functions with thermistor tripping and overload
tripping (thermal motor model overload). In the case of automatic reset, the fault
acknowledges itself automatically as soon as the cause of the fault (e.g. overheating of
the motor) is no longer active.
Manual reset: With manual reset, you as the user must actively acknowledge the fault
message via the TRIP/RESET button on the device, the SF/RESET button on the
operator panel, a remote reset, or the IO-Link. All fault messages can be acknowledged
manually.
"Non-acknowledgeable faults" are the exception. "Non-acknowledgeable faults" can only
be reset by removing the control supply voltage for at least 3 seconds. You can diagnose
"non-acknowledgeable faults" direct on the device by means of a flashing code sequence
of the three red LEDs. You can find the fault codes for "non-acknowledgeable faults" in
Chapter "Fault codes (only in the case of non-acknowledgeable faults) (Page 104)".
Note
Resetting switching states
When you acknowledge a fault, you confirm that you have taken account of a fault message.
The acknowledgment deletes the fault bits in the device but the switching states are not
restored.
The switching states only become active again when the cause of the fault has been
removed and the switching relays are activated again.
You can find information on how to remove the causes of faults in Chapter " IO-Link
diagnostics (Page 106)".

10.5.1 Manual reset
Manual reset
If the slide switch on the device is set to "MAN", you can acknowledge faults in the following
ways:
Trip reset (process image of the outputs via IO-Link)
TEST/RESET button on the 3RB24 overload relay
SF/RESET button on the 3RA6935-0A operator panel
Remote reset: Remote reset can be implemented electrically by jumpering terminals Y1
and Y2.
WARNING
Automatic restart!
Can result in death, serious injury, or property damage.
The motor switches on again when the following condition is met:
the overload relay is in automatic mode, and following the reset, the pending control
commands DO 0.0 / DO 0.1 of the higher-level controller are executed again.
Manual reset must not be used in applications where there is a risk of serious injury to
persons or substantial damage to property if the motor starts up again unexpectedly.
Make sure that the machine danger zone is kept clear of people at the time of restarting.

10.5.2 Automatic reset
Automatic reset
If the slide switch on the device is set to "AUTO", a tripping operation (current-dependent or
temperature-dependent protection) is acknowledged as soon as the recovery time has
elapsed or the temperature measured by the thermistor has dropped below the reclosing
value.
WARNING
Automatic restart!
Can result in death, serious injury, or property damage.
The motor switches on again when all the following conditions are met:
Automatic reset is set
The cause of the fault message is no longer active
The overload relay is in automatic mode and an ON command is active
Automatic reset must not be used in applications where there is a risk of serious injury to
persons or substantial damage to property if the motor starts up again unexpectedly.
Make sure that the machine danger zone is kept clear of people at the time of restarting.
Recovery time
The time between tripping and resetting is determined by the recovery time.
The recovery time depends on the tripping method:
1. Recovery time after current-dependent tripping:
On the 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link, the recovery time following current-
dependent tripping is approximately three minutes regardless of the reset mode set. The
recovery time gives the load a chance to cool down.
2. Recovery time following temperature-dependent tripping:
If temperature-dependent tripping takes place through a connected PTC thermistor
sensor circuit, the device can only be reset manually or automatically when the winding
temperature at the installation location of the cold conductor has cooled down to 5 Kelvin
below its response temperature.
3. Recovery time following other faults:
With all other faults, the overload relay is capable of reclosing as soon as the fault has
been removed.

overload relay closes continuously and trips again immediately afterwards.
Remove the cause for the trip before carrying out a reset.
Apply the reset selection for no more than 2 s, e.g. by briefly pressing the TEST/RESET
button, or by setting and then resetting the reset signal via the controller.
RESET function with trip-free mechanism
The RESET function with trip-free mechanism prevents reclosing of the solid-state overload
relay while a fault is being diagnosed.
The protection functions are not hindered by the following actions:
Holding the TEST/RESET button
Short-circuit of the contacts (Y1, Y2) of the remote reset
Continuous pressing of the SF/RESET button at the connected operator panel
Continuously active trip reset command from the controller
Note
The cause of the fault must be removed before the RESET.

11.2 Auxiliary contacts
Auxiliary contacts
The auxiliary contacts of the 3RB24 solid-state overload relay are an NO contact and a
changeover contact switched downstream of the NO contact.
Response of the auxiliary contacts
The 3RB24 solid-state overload relay for IO-Link has monostable auxiliary contacts. The
auxiliary contacts return to the initial state if voltage is not supplied.
Response to IO-Link voltage failure
If the supply voltage fails, both internal relays drop out (95/96 open, 95/98 open). Depending
on whether the overload relay is controlled at this time via IO-Link or via the operator panel,
the relays assume different states when the supply voltage is restored:
1. Control via IO-Link (automatic mode)
When the supply voltage is restored, the control commands pending from the controller
(IO-Link master) are transferred direct and the relays are switched immediately.
2. Control via the operator panel (manual mode):
Relays remain in the drop-out state and must be closed again manually. Press the
relevant button ( button or button) on the operator panel to activate the directions of
rotation. After applying the control supply voltage again, the operator panel is in jog
mode.
WARNING
