7. Introduce transients to the system and observe the error recovery time.
8. Ki can be slowly increased to improve this error recovery time, but avoid increasing too much causing
the system to become unstable.
9. With the PID values tuned as above, the Kg can be increased for faster response time to system
transients.
Note: If the gain setpoint high limit is reached while trying to tune one of the gains above, increase Kg
and restart the tuning process. If the gain setpoint low limit is reached, decrease Kg and restart the tuning
process.
MULTIGEN MANAGEMENT
This group of settings is used when an optional LSM-2020 (Load Share Module) is connected to the
DGC-2020. Multigen management settings consist of settings for AVR output, governor output, load
share output, demand start/stop, generator sequencing, and network configuration.
AVR Output
The AVR output
A
of the LSM-2020 is used to change the voltage setpoint of the generator. If the
response
B
is set for increasing, an increased bias will cause higher voltage. If the response
B
is set for
decreasing, an increased bias will cause lower voltage. Settings are provided for minimum output
current
C
, maximum output current
D
, minimum output voltage
E
, and maximum output voltage
F
.
BESTCOMSPlus AVR output settings (DGC-2020, Multigen Management, AVR Output) are illustrated in
Figure 4-43.
Figure 4-43. AVR Output Settings
A
Output Type: Voltage or Current.
B
Response: Increasing or Decreasing.
C
Min Output Current: Adjustable from 4 to 20 mA in 0.1 mA increments.
D
Max Output Current: Adjustable from 4 to 20 mA in 0.1 mA increments.
E
Min Output Voltage: Adjustable from -10 to 10 V in 0.1 V increments.
F
Max Output Voltage: Adjustable from -10 to 10 V in 0.1 V increments.
Governor Output
The governor output
A
of the LSM-2020 is used to change the speed setpoint of the generator. If the
response
B
is set for increasing, an increased bias will cause faster speed. If the response
B
is set for
decreasing, an increased bias will cause slower speed. Settings are provided for minimum output
current
C
, maximum output current
D
, minimum output voltage
E
, and maximum output voltage
F

illustrated in Figure 4-44.
