3.3 CONTROLS
STOP/RESET
This position places the module into it’s Stop/reset mode. This will clear
any alarm conditions for which the triggering criteria have been removed.
If the engine is running and this position is selected, the module will
automatically instruct the change-over device to un-load the generator
(‘Load transfer’ becomes in-active (if used)). The fuel supply will be
removed and engine will be brought to a standstill. Should a
remote start
signal
be present while operating in this mode, a remote start will not
occur.
AUTO
This position places the module into it’s ‘Automatic’ mode. This mode
allows the module to control the function of the generator automatically.
The module will monitor the
remote start input and once a start condition
is signalled the set will be automatically started and placed on load
(‘Load
transfer’ becomes active (if used))
. If the starting signal is removed 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’ earlier
in this manual.
MANUAL
This position is used to allow manual control of the generator functions.
Once in
Manual mode the module will 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
change-over device to place the generator on load
(‘Load transfer’
becomes active (if used))
. Should the remote start signal then be
removed the generator will remain on load until either the
‘STOP/RESET’
or ‘AUTO’ positions is selected.
