5. OPERATION
5.1 START-UP OF THE GENSET
Under the conditions for activating the control unit, proceed to perform the
following engine start procedure:
1. Conditions for start-up of the generator set:
In automatic mode:
• Electrical signal to the network not valid (Alarms table, parameters 88 to 99).
• Network contactor activation failure (Alarms table, parameter 100).
• Start programmed by schedule.
• Start-up by load demand (see section 5.3).
In manual mode, by pressing the START key.
2. Start delay. Once activation conditions are detected, it is possible to program
a time delay (Times table, parameter 3) before continuing the engine start up
procedure. This delay only applies to engine starts in automatic mode.
3. Start-up of the generator set. The CEC7 control unit commands the start-up
of the generator set:
• Via the LT breaker in CEC7 control units con gured in external mode.
• Via the communications bus in CEC7 control units con gured in
integrated mode with CEM7 control units.
4. Engine started. Once the CEC7 control unit detects that the generator set is
running, the CEC7 control unit begins to validate the genset signal generated
according to the programming indicated for each enabled alarm (Alarms table,
parameters 104 to 110).
