A. Mode Buttons
The Mode Buttons are used to set the operating state of the generator. Pressing the OFF button prevents engine operation or stops the engine if it is already running. Pressing the MANUAL button (center button) immediately starts the generator. Pressing the AUTO button sets the generator for unattended operation under the control of properly matched automatic transfer switch.
WARNING
•With the Mode in the auto position, the unit starts and stops without notice.
•Keep clear of all moving parts at all times.
B.Auto LED
The Auto LED will be green when the controller is
placed in the Auto Mode.
C. Status Indicator LED’s
Status Indicator LED’s are provided to communicate the status of the generator to the user. Under normal running conditions, only the green Auto LED is lit. Function of all other LED’s are described on page 21.
D.Utility Power Monitor LED
The Utility Power Monitor LED will illuminate green
when the Voltage Sensing detects that the Utility is available.
E.Transfer Switch Monitor LED
The Transfer Switch Monitor LED will illuminate
Green when the transfer switch is in the normal position and it will illuminate Red when the Transfer Switch is in
the Emergency position.
F.Generator Power Monitor LED
The generator power monitor LED will illuminate Red
when the Voltage Sensing detects that the Generator source is available.
G. Generator Hour Meter
The Generator Hour Meter is provided to track the total numbers of hours of operation. The hour meter runs whenever the engine is running and the alternator is producing electricity. Placing the main line circuit breaker in the OFF position while the engine is running does not stop the meter from counting hours.
CIRCUIT BREAKER |
Main Line Circuit Breaker
A Main Line Circuit Breaker is provided to protect the generator from damage caused by electrical faults within the attached electrical distribution system. It is also used to isolate the output of the generator from the connected electrical distribution system by moving the breaker handle to the OFF position. Placing the breaker in this position does not prevent startup of the generator.
WARNING
•Place the circuit breaker in the OFF position when servicing the generator to minimize electrocution hazards.
FUSES |
Control Circuit Fuse
The Control Circuit Fuse provides protection against damage from electrical faults. Replace the fuse only with an equivalent size and style of fuse to prevent damage to the control system.
Charging Circuit Fuse
The Charging Circuit Fuse provides protection to the engine mounted alternator in the event of electrical faults in the positive (+) battery circuit. Failure of this fuse prevents charge from reaching the battery when the generator is running, leading to early battery failure. Replace the fuse only with an equivalent size and style of fuse to prevent damage to the control system.
