4. OIL PRESSURE FAILURE TEST:
a. Place control switch in "Test" position to start engine.
b. When the engine is starting and oil pressure is not yet up to full pressure, the
"Low Oil Pressure" light will illuminate , but the bell will not ring. When
pressure builds up, and the switch opens, the light will go out. This feature
provides indication that the oil pressure switch contacts are operating in a normal
manner.
c. After the engine is running, connect a temporary jumper between terminal #4 and
terminal #11.
d. Both the "Low Oil Pressure" light and status indicator light #4 should come on
immediately. Wait approximately seven (7) seconds. Alarm bell should sound.
e. Turn control switch to "Off" to stop engine and remove jumper between terminal
#4 and terminal #11.
f. Wait at least 30 seconds for elements to reset before making any further tests.
5. WATER TEMPERATURE FAILURE TEST:
a. Place control switch in "Test" position to start engine.
b. Jumper contacts on water temperature switch on engine.
c. Alarm bell sounds and the "High Engine Temperature" light on controller
illuminates immediately. Status indicator light #5 should come on with "High
Engine Temperature” light.
d. Turn control switch to "Off" to stop engine, and remove jumper on water switch.
6. OVERSPEED FAILURE TEST:
a. Turn the control switch to "Test" to start engine.
b. Momentarily short the contacts on the engine speed switch, or connect a
temporary jumper between terminal #3 and #7 on the controller.
c. The alarm bell sounds and the "Overspeed" light will illuminate immediately.
Engine comes to a stop. Status indicator light #3 should come on with the
"Overspeed" light.
d. Turn the control switch to "Off".
7. AUTOMATIC STARTING TESTS:
a. If the program clock is in a run position, set to a non-run condition. (See
manufacturer’s instructions.)
b. Place control in "Auto" position.
c. Bleed off pressure in system until pressure switch closes.
d. Engine should start automatically and continue to run after switch has opened if
arranged for "Manual" stop. If arranged for "Automatic" stop, engine will
continue to run for time set on Engine Run Timer and then stop.
e. Turn control switch to "Off" to stop engine.
f. Repeat tests for each demand switch such as deluge valve, remote start, etc.
8. PERIODIC STARTING TEST:
a. Pressure must be up and pressure switch open and all other demand switches de-
activated.
b. 110 V.A.C. power must be alive to panel.
c. Place control switch in "Auto" position.
i. If drain valve operates and if engine starts at once, the program clock has
tripped to the operating position, and engine will run for the remaining
time on the program clock.
ii. If engine does not start immediately, manually set the program clock to
an "On" condition. (See manufacturers instructions). The drain valve
will relieve pressure; the engine will start and then run for the time
setting of the program clock and stop.
9. ADJUST SETTING OF ENGINE RUN TIMER (OPTION R): Set the Engine Run
Timer to the desired run time. Never set the time to less than thirty (30) minutes.
