AUT Mode 
 
The controller does not respond to buttons START, STOP, MCB ON/OFF, GCB ON/OFF. Engine 
start/stop request is evaluated form Mains failure/return.

Mains operation 
 
1
 Mains failed means mains over/under -voltage, over/under -frequency, voltage assymetry (preset 
delay must elapse) 
 
2 
If during start-up sequence mains returns, then MCB is reclosed with delay MCB Close Del (if 
opened, depending on 
MCB Opens On setpoint) and start-up sequence is interrupted. 
 
3 
If mains fails during stop procedure (cooling) again, stop sequence is interrupted, MCB opened and 
GCB reclosedclosed with delay 
Fwd Return Del.

TEST mode  
 
The setpoint 
ReturnFromTEST influences the behavior of TEST mode. 
Caution: The gen-set starts automatically and is always running in TEST mode! 
The setpoint ReturnFromTEST = MANUAL 
While TEST mode is selected, gen-set starts and is running unloaded.
