Operator Control Panel (MICROPROCESSOR Engine Controller Only)
The Operator Control Panel is shown in Figure 4‐13.
WARNING: Never connect this generator to any buildings electrical system unless a licensed electrician has installed an approved transfer switch. The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires that connection of a generator to any electrical circuit normally powered by means of an electric utility must be connected by means of approved transfer switch equipment so as to isolate the electrical circuit from the utility distribution system when the generator is operating. Failure to isolate the electrical circuits by such means may result in injury or death to utility power workers due to backfeed of electrical energy onto the utility lines.

Ready LED- | On when the generator set is ready for automatic operation and no Shutdown or Alarm faults are detected. |
Speed Signal LED- | On when the engine speed signal is detected (i.e. the engine is cranking). |
Emergency Stop LED- On when the Emergency Stop Switch is used to stop the engine. | |
Emergency Stop Switch- When pushed, the engine is stopped immediately. The engine cannot be restarted until the controller is reset. | |

Run Switch- | When pushed, initiates a manual start signal to start the engine. The engine will start and operate continuously providing no |
| shutdown faults are active. All protective circuits are operative in this mode. There will be no cool down cycle at the end of a |
| manual run sequence. |
Run LED- | On when the Run switch is used to start the engine (generator set). |
OFF Switch- | When pushed, sends a stop signal to the engine to stop the engine. |
OFF LED- | On when the OFF Switch is used to stop the engine. |
