Deif AGC 100 - Running Mode Description

3.4.3 Island operation
Auto mode description
The unit automatically starts the genset and closes the generator breaker at a digital start command. When
the stop command is given, the generator breaker is tripped, and the genset will be stopped after a cooling
down period. The start and stop commands are used by activating and deactivating a digital input or with the
time-dependent start/stop commands. If the time-dependent start/stop commands are to be used, the auto
mode must also be used.
For a general description of the available running modes, please refer to the chapter "Running

time-dependent start/stop commands. If the time-dependent start/stop commands are to be used, then the
auto mode must also be used.
3.5 Running mode description
3.5.1 Manual mode
The unit can be operated in manual mode (MAN). Manual means that the unit will not initiate any sequences
automatically, as is the case with the auto mode. It will only initiate sequences, if external signals are given.
An external signal may be given in three ways:
1. Stop and MAN push-buttons on the display are used
2. Digital inputs are used
3. Modbus command at service port or RS 485
The standard controller is only equipped with a limited number of digital inputs, please refer to
"Digital inputs" in this document and the data sheet for additional information about availabili-
ty.
The following sequences can be activated in manual mode:
