HGM6100LT Series Genset Controller User Manual                                                                  Page 11 of 50 
4.3  AUTOMATIC START/STOP OPERATION 
Auto mode is activated by pressing the  , LED indicator beside it is illuminating which confirms 
this action.   
Starting Sequence, 
1)  HGM6120LT: When mains is abnormal (over/under voltage, lack of  phase), it enters into “Mains 
Abnormal Delay” and LCD displays count-down time. When delay is over, “Start Delay” begins.   
2)  HGM6110LT: When “Remote Start” input is active, it enters into “Start Delay”; 
3)  “Start Delay” countdown is displayed in LCD; 
4)  When  start  delay  is  over,  preheat  relay  is  outputting  (if  configured),  “Preheat  Delay  XX  s”  is 
displayed in LCD; 
5)  When preheat delay is over, fuel relay is outputting for 1s and then start relay outputs; if genset 
failed to start during “Crank Time”, the fuel and start relay stop outputting and it enters into “Crank 
Rest Time” and wait for next cranking; 
6)  If genset failed to start within set start times, the fifth line of LCD will turn black and “Fail to Start” 
alarm will be displayed;   
7)  Any time to start genset successfully, it will enter into “Safe Running”. During this period, alarms of 
low oil pressure, high temperature, under speed, failed to charge and Aux. input (be configured) are 
disabled. As soon as this delay is over, genset will enter into “Start Idle Delay” (if configured); 
8)  During  start  idle  delay,  alarms  of  under  speed,  under  frequency,  under voltage  are  disabled.  As 
soon as this delay is over, genset will enter into “Warming Up Delay” (if configured); 
9)  When  “Warming  Up  Delay”  is  over,  the  indicator  is  illuminating  if  gens  normal.  If  voltage  and 
frequency  reach  the  load  requirement,  close  relay  outputs,  genset  will  take  load  and  indicator 
illuminates; if voltage or frequency is abnormal, controller will alarm and shutdown (LCD displays 
the alarm information). 
Stopping Sequence, 
1)  HGM6120LT: During normal running, if mains normal, genset will enter into “Mains Normal Delay”, 
when mains indicator illuminates, “Stop Delay” begins; 
2)  HGM6110LT: Genset enters into “Stop Delay” as soon as “Remote Start” is inactive; 
3)  When “Stop Delay” is over, genset enters into “Cooling Delay”. Closing relay is disconnected. After 
switch “Transfer Rest Delay”, closing relay is outputting, mains will take load, generator indicator 
extinguishes while mains indicator illuminates;   
4)  When entering “Stop Idle Delay”, idle relay is energized to output. (If configured); 
5)  When entering “ETS Delay”, ETS relay is energized to output, fuel relay output is disconnected; 
6)  When entering “Genset at Rest”, genset will automatically judge if it has stopped; 
7)  When genset  stops,  it will  enter  into standby mode;  if  genset failed to stop, controller  will issue 
alarm (“Fail to Stop” alarm will be displayed in LCD).
