4 Control and Operation Instruction

The controller has a variety of control mode, the operator panel can be set to automatic mode and
the non-automatic mode. Non-automatic mode there are two kinds of situations, such as no definable
switch is set to "activate the test mode", for the manual operation mode; if a definable switch is set to
"Enable Test Mode" and effective, then is test operation mode.
4.1 Operation Mode Setting：
Description Action
Press the ―AUTO‖ button, the LED is illuminated, the controller is

running in ―AUTO‖ mode. Press the "AUTO mode" button again, the
LED is off, the controller is running in non-automatic operation mode.
Note：
Controller keeps the states for the previous mode when changing the
operation mode, then implements the control procedure of the next mode
according to the present states.
Note：
If a defined panel lock switch input will not change the operating mode of the
controller.
Page 9/65
4.2 AUTO Control Sequence

The controller is running in ―AUTO‖ mode.
Generator Auto Start Sequence：

Generator in the standby mode, only in the following situations occur, generator start-up program
began：
 Definable input port for the remote control load a definition.
 Definable input port for the remote control no-load a definition.
The Start delay timer is activated, when it times out, the Preheat relay output is energised (if
preheat function selected), the timer starts. When it times out, the fuel relay output is energised, and
operates the fuel solenoid of the engine. After 300ms delay, the start relay output is energised, the start
motor engages and begins to crank. When the engine speed reaches the crank cutout RPM, the start
relay output is de-energised and the safety-on delay starts. When the safety-on times out, if the
controller detects that the parameters of the Genset such as voltage, frequency, oil pressure, coolant
temperature are normal, and no other failure is detected this indicates the Genset has successfully
started and running normally. The LCD displays the Genset Measurement Parameters.
If you have selected idle function, the idle relay will be closed at the same time as the start relay is
closed, the idle timer will begin counting down after successful crank, when it times out, the idle relay
opens, other procedure is the same as above.
Note:
 When the engine is running at idle period, the controller does not detect
the failure of low-voltage, low-frequency, low-speed and charging failure.
 When no one input port as defined as remote start, the "remote start"
signal is not as boot judgment condition.
NOTE:
The start motor will power off while cranking if there are one of the following
conditions occur:
 The generator’s frequency reaches the preset value (configurable
cranking cutout value);
 The AC engine speed reaches crank cutout value;
 Generator’s voltage reaches the crank cutout value (optional);
 Cutout P-delay time’s up (optional);
 Cranking time’s up.
The controller can not implement crank procedure in one of the following
conditions:
 A. The generator’s frequency reaches the preset value (configurable
cranking cutout value);
 B. The AC engine speed reaches crank cutout value;
 C. Generator’s voltage reaches the crank cutout value (optional);
 D. Oil pressure switch is opened or oil pressure is higher than crank
cutout value (optional).
Page 10/65
CAUTION:
 If the control system does not use the speed sensor, that is, the engine cut
off the signal from the generator frequency, must ensure that the generator
in the process of turning, the output voltage is greater than the controller
measure the voltage to avoid damage to the motor.
Repeat Start: During the crank period, if the engine can not ignite and controller will not output start
signal during crank rest. Once crank rest timer times out the start relay energises once again and will
attempt to start engine again. The above procedure will be repeated until engine successfully ignites or
reaches the preset number of crank attempt.
If any shutdown alarm occurs during operation, controller will stop the control output immediately, and the
Genset only can be restarted after clearing the failure and reset.
Start Failure: When the procedure above repeats again and again and reaches the preset number
of crank attempt, the crank relay output is then de-energised. The failure LED illuminates and the LCD
displays fail to start.
CAUTION:
 If fail to start occurs, operator must check the whole Genset system to
find out failure reason, only after clearing the failure can press ―reset
button to relieve fault lock out status, and restart the genet.
Power supply process：

When the generator running, the generator voltage and frequency reaches to the the generation
load voltage and power generation with load frequency, power generation delay timer is started, time’s
up, the GCB relay closure outputs, the transfer switch power generation side switch is closed, power
supply.
Generator unloading and shutdown process

Under the following conditions, the controller sends the generator uninstall command：
 Loading remote signal of definable input port is invalid.
In GOB, cooling delay began to countdown , when it times out, the controller fuel relay action,
immediately disconnect the fuel solenoid ,into standby generator.
Stop Failure: When cool down times out, the fuel relay action and the timer for stop delay begins.
If the controller detects that the voltage of the generator is greater than the cutout values, or the speed
is greater than the RPM, or the oil pressure switch is off, or the oil pressure is greater than the crank
cutout oil pressure, the failure LED illuminates and the LCD displays Fail to stop.
NOTE:
 After stop failure occurs and the generator can not be started unless it is
removed and reset .
Page 11/65
4.3 MAN control Sequence

The controller is running in ―MANUAL‖ mode.
Generator starting sequence:

Pressing ―START‖ button the fuel relay action, and open the fuel solenoid of engine. After 300ms
delay, the start relay closed output, the start motor engages and begins to crank, When the engine speed
reaches the crank cutout RPM, the controller output is de-energised and the safety-on delay starts.
When the safety-on times out, if the controller detects that the parameters of the genset such as voltage,
frequency, oil pressure, coolant temperature are normal, and no other failure is detected this indicates
the Genset has successfully started and running normally. The LCD displays the Genset Measurement
Parameters.
Generator opening and stopping sequence:

Press ―STOP‖ button, GCB relay opens, the generator is unload, the cool down timer starts,
disconnect when it times out , the fuel relay action, disconnect the fuel solenoid immediately, generator
stops and goes to standby status.
If press ―STOP‖ button again during cool down period, generator stops immediately without cool down time.
Page 12/65
4.4 Start and stop sequence of engine whose fuel solenoid is N.O.type：
There are two kinds of fuel solenoids for an engine, one is N.C. type, the valve of this solenoid is
closed when the engine is in standby and it can be opened by switching on power; another is N.O. type,
the valve of this solenoid is opened when engine is in standby and it can be closed by switching on power.
All control sequences above are for N.C. type.
Start control sequence for N.O. type:

During the starting sequence the fuel relay of controller will not energise, fuel solenoid is no power,
fuel solenoid open by the fuel solenoid to no-activate.
Stop control sequence for N.O. type:

During the stop sequence, the fuel relay energises, fuel solenoid is on power, the fuel solenoid action,
the solenoid closed and the engine begins to stop. After a delay (same as Stop delay) fuel relay
disconnect, disconnecting the supply from the fuel solenoid.
Other control sequences are same as engine whose fuel solenoid is N. C. type.
4.5 Idle function：

For idle function set one of the configurable outputs as idle.
Refer to the flow chart for start and stop for idle control flows.
NOTE：
 Controller will not detect under voltage, under frequency, under speed, and
charge failure during idle period.
4.6 Preheat function：

For preheat function, one of the configurable outputs as Preheat, the controller has 5 type
selectable preheat control modes as below：
Mode 1 — during preheat time, preheat relay closure output.
Mode 2 — during preheat time, preheat relay closure output until the successful ignition.
Mode 3 — during preheat time, preheat relay closure output until safety-on delay times out.
Mode 4 — one of the configurable inputs is defined as Preheat, preheat relay closure output when
this configurable input is active, and disconnect when configurable input is inactive.
Mode 5 — the temperature measurement value from the T-sensor port is used as the preheat control
signal. When the temperature measured by the controller is lower than the preheated Preheat ON value, the
preheat relay closes the output until the temperature reaches the Preheat OFF value, the preheat relay is
disconnected.
For preheat mode 1 to 3, please refer to the flow chart for start and stop for Preheat control flows.
For preheat mode 4 to 5, preheat function is active immediately when the controller is switched on power.
During crank period, the preheat relay output will not energise in any of above modes。
Page 13/65
4.7 The function of forcing start：

Reason to add this function to the controller is that when the engine under abnormal conditions, e.g.
the battery voltage is too low or ambient temperature is too low, or generator only outputs voltage at a
high speed when magnetic pick-up is not used, the Genset cannot be started successfully when it
implements the build-up cranking process of controller. There are 2 methods to solve these conditions
in the controller:
Method 1: In manual mode, press the "Start" button, the controller crank relay closes output, the
maximum closing time does not exceed the preset crank time. To extend the crank time, press the
"Start" button continuously without changing the relevant parameters, depending on the duration of the
hold button. After successfully crank, the safety monitoring delay time starts, and the procedure and
protection is followed.
Method 2: In manual mode, set the parameter "EX. Crank permit" to "1" and add a switch PB to the
control circuit as shown below. When the speed is up to 150RPM, the engine crank, if the speed sensor
is not used, the generator voltage ≥20VAC, the controller function is triggered, the throttle relay output,
when the speed reaches the crank cutout RPM , the safety monitoring delay timer Start, after the
procedures and protection is normal. If in the safety monitoring time, the engine speed is lower than
150RPM, the controller reset, re-enter the standby state.
CAUTION:
 We normally don’t recommend using the method 2
 Pay attention to the installation of PB switch to avoid cranking when the
Genset is running.
