The products may perform unexpected movements because of incorrect wiring, incorrect settings, incorrect data or other errors.
WARNING
UNANTICIPATED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
· Carefully install the wiring in accordance with the EMC requirements.
· Do not operate the product with unknown or unsuitable settings or data.
· Perform a comprehensive commissioning test.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
Refer to the following instructions to wire the soft starter:
· Do not route signal cables next to power cables.
· Cables connected to the motor must have the maximum possible separation from all other power cables. Do not run them in the same conduit. This separation reduces the possibility of coupling electrical noise between circuits.
· Voltage and frequency specifications for the supply mains must match the soft starter configuration.
· A disconnect switch must be installed between the supply mains and the soft starter.
· Power factor correction capacitors should not be connected to a motor controlled by a soft starter. If power factor correction is required, the capacitors must be located on the mains of the soft starter. A separate contactor should be used to switch the capacitors off when the motor is off, or during acceleration and deceleration. Use the relay R2 or R3 to switch the contactors.
· The soft starter must be grounded to conform to the regulations concerning leakage currents. If the installation involves several soft starters on the same supply mains, each soft starter must be grounded separately.

current measurement remain active when the soft starter is

bypassed.

Bypassing soft starter limits heat dissipation of the SCR, which allows:

The Soft starter can be connected in series with motor windings in a delta connection (inside the delta connection). By doing so, for the same motor power rating, the current going through the winding and the soft starter is reduced by 1.7 (3). This reduction allows to choose a soft starter with lower current rating.
Example:
Using a 400V 110kW 4 pole motor with a mains supply current of 195A (nominal current for the delta connection).
· In-line connection: a soft starter is selected with a current rating just above 195A, i.e. ATS480C21Y (210A) for a normal duty application.
· Inside delta connection: the current in each winding is equal to 195/3 = 114A, ATS480C14Y is sufficient for this normal duty application.
· (a): Supply mains
· (b): Soft starter
· (c): Induction motor

General

The AC voltage source must be of overvoltage category II (OVC II) according to IEC 60947-4-2 and IEC 60947-1.
If it is not the case, an isolation transformer must be used.

Contactors with AC Coil
If controlled by a relay, a resistor-capacitor (RC) circuit must be connected in parallel to the coil of the contactor as shown on the drawing below.

ATS
(1) AC 250 Vac maximum. Schneider Electric AC contactors have a dedicated area on the housing to plug easily the RC device. Refer to the Motor control and protection components catalog MKTED210011EN available on se.com to find the RC device to be associated with the contactor used. Example: With a 48 Vac source, contactors LC1D09E7 or LC1DT20E7 have to be used with LAD4RCE voltage suppression device.
Other Inductive AC Loads
For other inductive AC loads: · Use an auxiliary contactor connected on the product to control the load. Example: with a 48 Vac source, auxiliary contactors CAD32E7 or CAD50E7 with LAD4RCE voltage suppression device. · When using a third-party inductive AC load, request the supplier to provide information on the voltage suppression device, in order to avoid overvoltage above 375 V during relay opening.

Wiring
Other Inductive DC Loads
Other inductive DC loads without embedded TVS diode must use one of the following voltage suppression device:
· A bidirectional TVS device as shown on the drawing above, defined by: TVS break-down voltage greater than 35 Vdc, TVS clamping voltage V(TVS) less than 50 Vdc TVS peak power dissipation greater than load rated current, I(load) x V (TVS). Example: with I(load) = 0.9 A and V(TVS) = 50 Vdc, TVS peak power must be greater than 45 W TVS average power dissipation greater than the value calculated by the following 0.5 x I(load) x V(TVS) x load time constant x number of operation per second. Example: with I(load) = 0.9 A and V(TVS) = 50 Vdc, load time constant = 40 ms (load inductance divided by load resistance) and 1 operation every 3 s, the TVS average power dissipation must be greater than 0.5 x 0.9 x 50 x 0.04 x 0.33 = 0.3 W.
· A fly-back diode as shown in the drawing below.

(1) DC 30 Vdc maxi. (2) Flyback diode The diode is a polarized device. The fly-back diode must be defined by:
· A reverse voltage greater than 100 Vdc, · A rated current greater than two times the load rated current, · A thermal resistance: junction to ambient temperature (in K/W) less than 90 /
(1.1 x I(load)) to operate at maximum 60°C (140°F) ambient temperature. Example: with I(load) = 1.5 A, select a 100 V, 3 A rated current diode with a thermal resistance from junction to ambient less than 90 / (1.1 x 1.5) = 54.5 K/ W. Using a flyback diode, the relay opening time will be longer than with a TVS diode. NOTE: Use diodes with leads for easy wiring and keep at least 1 cm (0.39 in.) of leads on each side of the case of the diode for a correct cooling.

Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity

Overview

The objective of Cybersecurity is to help provide increased levels of protection for information and physical assets from theft, corruption, misuse, or accidents while maintaining access for their intended users.
No single Cybersecurity approach is adequate. Schneider Electric recommends a defense-in-depth approach. Conceived by the National Security Agency (NSA), this approach layers the network with security features, appliances, and processes.
The basic components of this approach are:
· Risk assessment
· A security plan built on the results of the risk assessment
· A multi-phase training campaign
· Physical separation of the industrial networks from enterprise networks using a demilitarized zone (DMZ) and the use of firewalls and routing to establish other security zones
· System access control
· Device hardening
· Network monitoring and maintenance
This chapter defines the elements that help you configure a system that is less susceptible to cyber-attacks.
Network administrators, system integrators and personnel that commission, maintain or dispose of a device should:
· Apply and maintain the device’s security capabilities. See Device Security Capabilities sub-chapter for details
· Review assumptions about protected environments. See Protected Environment Assumptions sub-chapter for details
· Address potential risks and mitigation strategies. See Product Defense- inDepth sub-chapter for details
· Follow recommendations to optimize cybersecurity
For detailed information on the system defense-in-depth approach, refer to the TVDA: How Can I Reduce Vulnerability to Cyber Attacks in the Control Room (STN V2) on se.com.
To submit a Cybersecurity question, report security issues, or get the latest news from Schneider Electric, visit the Schneider Electric website.
WARNING
POTENTIAL COMPROMISE OF SYSTEM AVAILABILITY, INTEGRITY, AND CONFIDENTIALITY
· Change default password to help prevent unauthorized access to device settings and information.
· Disable unused ports/services and default accounts, where possible, to minimize pathways for malicious attacks
· Place networked devices behind multiple layers of cyber defenses (such as firewalls, network segmentation, and network intrusion detection and protection).
· Use cybersecurity best practices (for example: least rights, separation of duties) to help prevent unauthorized exposure, loss or odification of data and logs, interruption of services, or unintended operation.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

62

NNZ85515.02 ­ 07/2022

Cybersecurity
Protected Environment Assumptions
Machines, controllers, and related equipment are usually integrated into networks. Unauthorized persons and malware may gain access to the machine as well as to other devices on the network/fieldbus of the machine and connected networks via insufficiently secure access to software and networks.
WARNING
UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO THE MACHINE VIA SOFTWARE AND NETWORKS
· In your hazard and risk analysis, consider all hazards that result from access to and operation on the network/fieldbus and develop an appropriate cyber security concept.
· Verify that the hardware infrastructure and the software infrastructure into which the machine is integrated as well as all organizational measures and rules covering access to this infrastructure consider the results of the hazard and risk analysis and are implemented according to best practices and standards covering IT security and cyber security (such as: ISO/IEC 27000 series, Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation, ISO/ IEC 15408, IEC 62351, ISA/IEC 62443, NIST Cybersecurity Framework, Information Security Forum – Standard of Good Practice for Information Security, SE recommended Cybersecurity Best Practices).
· Verify the effectiveness of your IT security and cyber security systems using appropriate, proven methods.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

NNZ85515.02 ­ 07/2022

63

Cybersecurity
Before considering cybersecurity practices on the device, please pay attention to following points:
· Cybersecurity governance ­ available and up-to-date guidance on governing the use of information and technology assets in your company.
· Perimeter security ­ installed devices, and devices that are not in service, are in an access-controlled or monitored location.
· Emergency power ­ the control system provides the capability to switch to and from an emergency power supply without affecting the existing security state or a documented degraded mode.
· Firmware upgrades ­ the ATS480 upgrades are implemented consistently to the current version of firmware available on se.com.
· Controls against malware ­ detection, prevention, and recovery controls to help protect against malware are implemented and combined with appropriate user awareness.
· Physical network segmentation ­ the control system provides the capability to:
Physically segment control system networks from non-control system networks.
Physically segment critical control system networks from non- critical control system networks.
· Logical isolation of critical networks ­ the control system provides the capability to logically and physically isolate critical control system networks from non-critical control system networks. For example, using VLANs.
· Independence from non-control system networks ­ the control system provides network services to control system networks, critical or non-critical, without a connection to non-control system networks.
· Encrypt protocol transmissions over all external connections using an encrypted tunnel, TLS wrapper or a similar solution.
· Zone boundary protection ­ the control system provides the capability to:
Manage connections through managed interfaces consisting of appropriate boundary protection devices, such as: proxies, gateways, routers, firewalls, and encrypted tunnels.
Use an effective architecture, for example, firewalls protecting application gateways residing in a DMZ.
Control system boundary protections at any designated alternate processing sites should provide the same levels of protection as that of the primary site, for example, data centers.
· No public internet connectivity ­ access from the control system to the internet is not recommended. If a remote site connection is needed, for example, encrypt protocol transmissions.
· Resource availability and redundancy ­ ability to break the connections between different network segments or use duplicate devices in response to an incident.
· Manage communication loads ­ the control system provides the capability to manage communication loads to mitigate the effects of information flooding types of DoS (Denial of Service) events.
· Control system backup ­ available and up-to-date backups for recovery from a control system failure.

64

NNZ85515.02 ­ 07/2022

Cybersecurity
Security Policy
WARNING
ACCESSIBILITY LOSS · Setup a security policy to your device and backup the device image with
security administrator user account. · Define and regularly review the password policy. · Periodic change of the passwords, Schneider Electric recommends a
modification of the password each 90 days. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
Cybersecurity helps to provide: · Confidentiality (to help prevent unauthorized access) · Integrity (to help prevent unauthorized modification) · Availability/authentication (preventing the denial of service and assuring authorized access) · Non-repudiation (preventing the denial of an action that took place) · Traceability/detection (logging and monitoring)
Norm IEC 62443 is the worldwide standard for security of industrial control system (ICS) networks.
From the norm definition, Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 is considered as Embedded Device of the ICS network, and has been designed following the norm IEC624434-1 and the technical security requirements are defined in compliance with norm IEC 62443-4-2.
Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 security features prevent the unauthorized disclosure of information via eavesdropping or casual exposure.
For an efficient security, the instructions and procedures should structure the roles and responsibilities in terms of security within the organization; in other words, who is authorized to perform what and when. These should be known by the users.
The anti-intrusion and anti-physical access to any sensitive installation should be set up.
All the security rules implemented in the ATS480 are in complement of the points above.

NNZ85515.02 ­ 07/2022

65

Cybersecurity
The device does not have the capability to transmit data encrypted using the following protocols: HTTP, Modbus slave over serial, Modbus slave over Ethernet, EtherNet/IP, SNMP, SNTP. If other users gained access to your network, transmitted information can be disclosed or subject to tampering.
WARNING
CYBERSECURITY HAZARD · For transmitting data over an internal network, physically or logically
segment the network, the access to the internal network needs to be restricted by using standard controls such as firewalls. · For transmitting data over an external network, encrypt protocol transmissions over all external connections using an encrypted tunnel, TLS wrapper or a similar solution. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
The access through the digital inputs is not controlled.
Any computer using SoMove, DTM, Webserver or EcoStruxure Control Expert should have an updated anti-virus, anti-malware, anti-ransomware application activated during the use.
The ATS480 have the capability to export its settings and files manually or automatically. It is recommended to archive any settings and files (device backup images, device configuration, device security policies) in a secure area.
Product Defense-in-Depth
Use a layered network approach with multiple security and defense controls in your IT and control system to minimize data protection gaps, reduce single- points of failure and create a strong cybersecurity posture. The more layers of security in your network, the harder it is to breach defenses, take digital assets or cause disruption.

Non Repudiation by Security Event Logging
The security event logging prevents the repudiation issues by ensuring traceability and detection of any service executed and affecting the security policy of the device.
These security capabilities support the analysis of security events, help protect the device from unauthorized alteration and records configuration changes and user account events:
· Machine and human-readable reporting options for current device security settings
· Audit event logs to identify:
The ATS480 configuration modification
The device users’ activity (login, logout, etc…)
The device firmware updates
Audit storage capacity of 500 event logs by default
Timestamps, including date and time, match ATS480 clock

ATS480 Security Policy
To facilitate cybersecurity first configurations, the ATS480 offers 2 security profiles with preset ATS480 security features. This operation applies default values adapted to the security level targeted by the system of which the device is part.
Selection of these 2 security policies can be done upon first power up of the device, both with the display terminal, SoMove, DTM or EcoStruxure Control Expert.
Security Policy “Minimum”
This profile offers a minimum of cybersecurity features. The user access control (login & password check at connection) are disabled on SoMove, EADM, WebServer and EcoStruxure Control Expert.
Those connections remain unsecured and open for potential elevation of privilege. This profile is to be used for installation where authentication & authorization constraints are covered by access control mitigation external to the device.
When Minimum policy is selected, each user accessing the device is considered to have ADMIN role and privileges.
Security Policy “Advanced”
This profile presets the device security by enabling security features. The user access control is enabled for the web server, SoMove EADM and EcoStruxure Control Expert.
When activating the “Advanced” security policy, the user is identified as Admin and is requested to create a login and a password unique to the device.
A default password is displayed on the display terminal. It can be kept as it is or modified.

Import / Export Security Policy
The device security settings can be exported from a device to be archived and/or applied in the same or another device. The result of a security policy export consists in the creation of a security policy file. This file is identified with the extension .secp.
The following table describes the security settings included in the security policy export:

Security settings
User access control settings

Included in import / export operation

Password policy

User database, including username and password
Password history, last 5 for each users

Device default password Security events

For security reasons, the default password is unique to each device and cannot be exported
­
The security events base is private property of a device and cannot be applied to another device

Potential Risks and Compensating Controls

Address potential risks using these compensating controls:

Area
User accounts.
Secure protocols.

Issue

Risk

Default account settings are often the source of unauthorized access by malicious users.

If you do not change default password or disable the user access control, unauthorized access can occur.

Modbus serial, Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, SNMP, SNTP, HTTP protocols are insecure.

If a malicious user gained access to your network, they could intercept communication.

The device does not have the capability to transmit data encrypted using these protocols.

Compensating controls
Ensure User access control is enabled on all the communication ports and change the default passwords to help reduce unauthorized access to your device.
For transmitting data over internal network, physically or logically segment your network.
For transmitting data over external network, encrypt protocol transmissions over all external connections using an encrypted tunnel, TLS wrapper or a similar solution.
See Protected Environment Assumptions.

Cybersecurity
Data Flow Restriction
A firewall device is required to secure the access to the device and limit the data flow. For detailed information, refer to the TVDA: How Can I Reduce Vulnerability to Cyber Attacks in the Control Room (STN V2) on the Schneider Electric website.

Initial Setup

Before using the device, it is mandatory to select a security policy, refer to Initial Setup, page 84the Chapter Initial Setup in the User Manual NNZ85515..

Password
Changing Password
The user password can be changed from the DTM Admin options screen.

Reset Password

The Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 stores password in a secure non-reversible format. It is impossible to retrieve a password that has been lost by his user.
For ADMIN user, a special operation is available with the graphic display terminal to reset the ADMIN password to a default value unique to the device.
To reset the ADMIN password:

Step 1 2 3

Action
Navigate to the menu [Device Management] DMT [Cybersecurity] CYBS Scroll to the parameter [Reset Password] SRPW and press OK
The default password is visible on the graphic display terminal until the ADMIN modifies it.

Upon first use, the commissioning tools and webserver will request the user to change this password prior to connecting. The cybersecurity policy does not change when the password is reset.

Password Policy
By default, the password policy of the Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 complies with IEEE 1686­2013 as following:
· 8 characters minimum with ASCII [32 to 122] characters · At least one digit (0-9) · At least one special character (@ % + ` ! # ” $ ^ ? : , ( ) [ ] ~ _ . ; = & / ­
[SPACE]) In addition, for password changes, the password history is saved and prevents the reuse of a password that has been set at least once in the last 5 times.

72

NNZ85515.02 ­ 07/2022

Cybersecurity

The password policy can be customized or totally disabled to match with password policy in place in the system of which the device is part.
The following settings are available:
· Password policy: enabled/disabled. If disabled, a password is requested as authentication factor but there is no specific rule defined regarding the password robustness
· Password history: No restriction, Exclude last 3, Exclude last 5
· Special character required: YES/NO
· Numeric character required: YES/NO
· Alphabetic character required: YES/NO
· Minimum password length: any value between 6 and 20
This password policy customization can only be done with SoMove, DTM or EcoStruxure Control Expert. Please refer to DTM online help for details.
NOTE: Changing the User authentication security policy (elevation or reduction of privilege) will be taken into account:
· Upon next connection to the soft starter, if the Initial Setup connection is still open
· Immediately in other scenarios

Security Event Logging
The following time-stamped events are logged in a dedicated security log file: · User authentications, authentication and logout attempts · Security parameter changes · Access to the security events · Device reboot, startup · Device hardware modifications and software updates · Device Configuration Integrity changes (restore, download or factory settings)
The Altivar Soft Starter ATS480 can store up to 500 events, a warning is raised when the log base is reaching 90% of capacity. This warning can be acknowledged with SoMove. When the maximum capacity is reached, the oldest events are erased.
If access control is disabled, any security event is identified as ADMIN action.
Embedded Device provides the capability to determine whether a given human took a particular action. The link is established between the user identifier, the action realized and the timestamping of the action (date and time) to provide an efficient source of security logging.
Irrelevant date & time can result in false interpretation of the security event logging and lead to either false positive or undetectable security threat detection.
NOTICE
WRONG TIMESTAMPING RESULT IN NON-REPUDIATION ISSUE · Verify and regularly realign the synchronization of the device data & time. Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.
The security events can be read from SoMove, DTM and EcoStruxure Control Expert. For security reasons, security logs are stored in a database to which readonly access is provided. There is no possibility to edit or erase this log database.
The format system log record follows the syntax defined by Syslog RFC­5424 2009 and the semantic normalized by Schneider Electric.
