RS T4F Diesel Generator

G400RS 17

This button places the module into its AUTO MODE. This mode allows the module to

control the function of the generator automatically. The module monitors numerous

start requests via digital input, PLC and MSC link and when one has been made, the set is

automatically started. Once the generator is available, the module automatically instructs

the generator to synchronise and once in sync, to be place the generator on load (‘Close

Generator Output’ becomes active). Upon removal of the starting signal, the module

starts the Return Delay Timer and once expired, the load is automatically ramped off the

generator and then it is taken off load (‘Close Generator Output’ becomes inactive). The

generator then continues to run for the duration of the Cooling Timer until it stops. The

module then waits for the next start event.

This button is only active in the STOP/RESET mode, MANUAL mode. Pressing the Start

button in Stop/Reset Mode powers up the engine’s ECU but does not start the engine. This

can be used to check the status of the CAN communication and to prime the fuel system

Used for navigating the instrumentation, event log and conﬁguration screens.

Used to silence the audible alarm in the controller, de-activates the audible alarm output

(if conﬁgured) and illuminates all of the LED on the module’s facia as a lamp test function.

Close Generator – The Close Generator button controls the operation of the generator

load switch and is only active in the Manual Mode once the generator is available. Pressing

the Close Generator button when the generator is available and off load automatically

instructs the generator to synchronise and once in sync, to be place the generator on load

(‘Close Generator Output’ becomes active). If the generator bus is dead (has not supply

on it) the generator is placed on load immediately. Further presses of the Close Generator

button have no effect.

Open Generator – The Open Generator button is only active in the Manual Mode and

allows the operator to open the generator load switch. Pressing the Open Generator

button when the Generator is on load, automatically ramps the load off the generator and

then takes it off load (‘Close Generator Output’ becomes inactive). Further presses of the

Open Generator button have no effect.
