Bryant Liquid-cooled 25 kW Generator

2.Press and hold the “Set Exercise” switch for five seconds, then release.

At this time all five red LEDs will flash for approxi- mately 10 seconds, then the engine will start and run for it’s 12 minute exercise period, then shut down. The generator will now start and run each week at the same time.

SETTINGS

Located on the control board is an eight position DIP switch (see Figure 3.2). The eight different switches, are used to configure the control board for the spe- cific engine and governor being used and are pre-set at the factory.

TO SET EXERCISER TIME

1)PLACE AUTO/OFF/MANUAL SWITCH TO AUTO POSITION.

2)HOLD "SET EXERCISE TIME" SWITCH IN "ON" POSITION FOR

THREE SECONDS AND RELEASE. THE EXERCISER IS NOW SET. ALL FIVE RED LED'S WILL FLASH FOR

10 SECONDS. THEN THE UNIT WILL START, RUN THROUGH THE EXERCISE CYCLE AND SHUTDOWN.

RISK O P

FOR ST TRANS

ATTEN

If the DIP switch settings are not set correctly,

!the generator may not start or operate correct- ly.

240 VAC can be present within the control panel.

If it is necessary to select an alternate switch position, move the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to the OFF position. Remove the 5 amp and 15 amp fuses in the generator control panel. Move the DIP switch position that needs to be changed to its new position. Wait five seconds, then re-install the 5 and 15 amp fuses.

The ON position is marked on the switch and the fac- tory settings are also shown in Figure 3.3.

FLASHING GREEN LED = NO UTILITY SENSE

5 FLASHING RED LED'S = EXERCISER NOT SET

(IN AUTO MODE ONLY) SOLID GREEN LED = SYSTEM READY, UTILITY POWER ON RED LED'S = INDIVIDUAL FAULT

(SEE OWNER'S MANUAL FOR COMPLETE DETAILS)

If DC power to the control board is lost, the weekly exercise setting will be lost. This is indicated by all five red LEDs continually flashing. In this state the generator will still start and run in manual mode, or automatically start and run if utility is lost while in Auto mode, but it will not perform a weekly exercise cycle.

If a failure occurs while running in this mode, the five red LEDs will stop flashing, the individual fault LED will turn on and the engine will shut down. Once the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch has been switch to OFF, the individual fault LED will turn OFF and the five red LEDs will begin flashing to show exercise has still not been set.

Switch Position 1 — Selects the generator alternator output frequency and is factory pre-set for 60 Hz.

Switch Position 2 — Selects the type of transfer switch and is factory pre-set for the prepackaged transfer switch.

Switch Position 3 — Selects the type of governor control used and is factory pre-set for stepper motor control.

Switch Position 4 — Selects the type of fuel being used and is factory pre-set for natural gas (NG).

Switch Position 5 — Selects the engine displacement and is factory pre-set for a 2.5 liter (2.5L) engine.

Switch Position 6 — Selects the number of engine cylinders and is factory pre-set for four cylinders.

Switch Position 7 — Selects the direction of rotation of the governor stepper motor and is factory pre-set for CCW rotation (rotation is observed looking at the stepper shaft as it move from closed throttle to open throttle).

Switch Position 8 — Selects whether the control is in the Normal Mode of operation or Test Mode. In the Normal Mode of operation, pre-determined governor gains are used and the gain trimpots on the control board (Gain, Stability, and Differential) are not active and have no effect on the gains. In Test Mode the gain trimpots are active and can be adjusted. See Section 3.4.
