6.4 STOP MODE
STOP mode is activated by pressing the button.
In STOP mode, the module will remove the generator from load (if necessary) before stopping the
engine if it is already running.
If the engine does not stop when requested, the FAIL TO STOP alarm is activated (subject to the
setting of the Fail to Stop timer). To detect the engine at rest the following must occur :
• Engine speed is zero as detected by the Magnetic Pickup or CANbus ECU (depending upon
module variant).
• Generator frequency must be zero.
• Oil pressure switch must be closed to indicate low oil pressure (MPU version only)
When the engine has stopped, it is possible to send configuration files to the module from DSE
Configuration Suite PC software and to enter the Front Panel Editor to change parameters.
Any latched alarms that have been cleared will be reset when STOP mode is entered.
The engine will not be started when in STOP mode. If remote start signals are given, the input is
ignored until AUTO mode is entered.
When configured to do so, When left in STOP mode for five minutes with no presses of the fascia
buttons, the module enters low power mode. To ‘wake’ the module, press the button or any other
fascia control button.
