DSE Model 5310 Automatic Mains Failure & Instrumentation System Operators Manual
Part No. 057-013 5310 OPERATING MANUAL ISSUE 7.1 18/06/2007 ADM 9
3.2 MANUAL OPERATION
NOTE:- If a digital input configured to panel lock is active, changing module modes will not be
possible. Viewing the instruments and event logs
i
is NOT affected by panel lock. If panel lock is
active the Panel lock indicator (if configured) illuminates.
To initiate a start sequence in MANUAL, press the pushbutton. When the controller is in the manual mode
(indicated by an LED indicator beside the button), pressing the START (
I) button will initiate the start sequence.
NOTE:- There is no Start Delay in this mode of operation.
If the pre-heat output option is selected this timer is then initiated, and the auxiliary output selected is energised.
After the above delay, the Fuel Solenoid (or ECU output if configured) is energised, then one second later, the
Starter Motor is engaged.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, compatible ECU’s will receive the start command
via CAN.
The engine is cranked for a pre-set time period. If the engine fails to fire during this cranking attempt then the
starter motor is disengaged for the pre-set rest period. Should this sequence continue beyond the set number of
attempts, the start sequence will be terminated and Fail to Start will be displayed.
When the engine fires, the starter motor is disengaged and locked out at a pre-set frequency from the Alternator
output. Alternatively, a Magnetic Pickup mounted on the flywheel housing can be used for speed detection (This is
selected by PC using the 52/53xx series configuration software). Rising oil pressure can also be used to
disconnect the starter motor; however, it cannot be used for underspeed or overspeed detection.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, speed sensing is via CAN.
After the starter motor has disengaged, the Safety On timer is activated, allowing Oil Pressure, High Engine
Temperature, Under-speed, Charge Fail and any delayed Auxiliary fault inputs to stabilise without triggering the
fault.
Once the engine is running, the Warm Up timer, if selected, is initiated, allowing the engine to stabilise before it
can be loaded.
The generator will run off load, unless the Remote Start on load signal is applied or, if Close generator has been
selected as a control source, the appropriate auxiliary output will then activate.
The generator will continue to run On load, until the Auto mode is selected.
If Auto mode is selected, and the remote start on load signal is not active, then the Stop Delay Timer begins,
after which, the load is disconnected. The generator will then run off load allowing the engine a cooling down
period.
Selecting STOP (O) de-energises the FUEL SOLENOID, bringing the generator to a stop.
