Operation

6.2 CONTROL PUSH-BUTTONS
Stop / Reset
This button places the module into its Stop/Reset mode. This will clear any alarm
conditions for which the triggering criteria have been removed. If the engine is running
and the module is in Stop mode, the module will automatically instruct the changeover
device to unload the generator (‘Close Generator’ becomes inactive (if used)). The fuel
supply de-energises and the engine comes to a standstill. Should a remote start signal
be present while operating in this mode, a remote start will not occur.
Manual
This mode allows manual control of the generator functions. Once in Manual mode the
module will respond to the start button, start the engine, and run off load. If the engine
is running off-load in the Manual mode and a remote start signal becomes present, the
module will automatically instruct the changeover device to place the generator on load
(‘Close Generator’ becomes active (if used)). Upon removal of the remote start signal,
the generator remains on load until either selection of the ‘STOP/RESET’ or ‘AUTO’
modes.
For further details, please see the more detailed description of ‘Manual operation’
elsewhere in this manual.
Auto
This button places the module into its ‘Automatic’ mode. This mode allows the module
to control the function of the generator automatically. The module will monitor the remote
start input and mains supply status and once a start request is made, the set will be
automatically started and placed on load.
Upon removal of the starting signal, the module will automatically transfer the load from
the generator and shut the set down observing the stop delay timer and cooling timer as
necessary. The module will then await the next start event. For further details, please see
the more detailed description of ‘Auto operation’ elsewhere in this manual.
Mute / Lamp Test
This button silences the audible alarm if it is sounding and illuminates all of the LEDs as
a lamp test feature/
When correctly configured and fitted to a compatible engine ECU, pressing this button in
STOP/RESET mode after pressing the START button (to power the ECU) will cancel
