Commissioning with STARTER
STARTER and STARTER screen forms
STARTER is a PC-based tool to commission Siemens inverters. The graphic user interface
of STARTER supports you when commissioning your inverter. Most inverter functions are
integrated in STARTER in screen forms.
The STARTER screen forms that are shown in this manual show general examples. You
may therefore find that a screen contains more or fewer setting options than are shown in
these instructions. A commissioning step may also be shown using an inverter other than the
one you are using.
Preconditions for commissioning
You require the following to commission the inverter using STARTER:
● An installed drive (motor and inverter)
● A computer with Windows XP or Windows 7
● Installed STARTER V4.3 SP2 or higher.
