8 COMMISSIONING
8.1 BASIC CHECKS
Before the system is started, it is recommended that the following checks are made:
The unit is adequately cooled and all the wiring to the module is of a standard and rating compatible
with the system. Check all mechanical parts are fitted correctly and that all electrical connections
(including earths) are sound.
Check all mechanical parts are fitted correctly and that all electrical connections (including earths) are
good. The unit DC supply is fused and connected to the battery and that it is of the correct polarity.
Check the operation of the Data Link between the two DSE8660 MKII modules. The Status page
displays Module Comms Fail if the Data Link has failed. Ensure one module is configured as the
Mains controller and the other as the Bus controller. Use the DSE Configuration Suite to check this in
the SCADA | STATUS page.
Check the operation of the MSC Link. Use the DSE Configuration Suite to check this in the SCADA |
BUS | MSC LINK page. Verify the number of Set On The Bus is equal to that of the number of
DSE8x10 modules.
Ensure all DSE8x10 module in the system has been fully commissioned using the DSE “Four Steps to
Successful Synchronising”. For more information, see section entitled DSE 4 Steps to Successful
Synchronising else where in this manual.
Place the DSE8660 MKII module into Stop/Reset Mode . Place the DSE8x10 into Auto Mode .
Initiate a start request by pressing the Manual Mode followed by the Start button on the
DSE8660 MKII module. The DSE8x10 module starts upon receipt of the MSC start request. The
generator bus remains off load so long as the mains supply is healthy and on load.
Place the DSE8660 MKII module into Stop/Reset Mode . The generator bus switch opens and the
MSC start request is removed from the DSE8x10.
Set the modules internal clock/calendar to ensure correct operation of the scheduler and event
logging functions. For details of this procedure, see section entitled Front Panel Configuration
If, despite repeated checking of the connections between the controller and the customer’s system,
satisfactory operation cannot be achieved, then the customer is requested to the DSE Technical
