3.10 Engine Start Switch
See Graphic: wc_gr002611
The engine start switch (f) is a three-position switch: “REMOTE
START”, off “O”, and “START/RUN”. The “REMOTE START” position
is the normal setting used when using the generator as a back-up
power supply connected to a remote switch. In the REMOTE START
position, the generator is in stand-by mode and will not start until the
remote switch closes. In the “START/RUN” position, the switch
immediately starts the engine start cycle and activates the starter
motor to crank the engine. When set in the “REMOTE START” or
“START/RUN position, the switch applies battery power to the control
module to turn on the LCD panel, and also energizes the engine’s
electrical system. In the off “O” position, power to the engine’s
electrical system, including the fuel solenoid, is disconnected.
3.11 Voltage Adjustment Rheostat
See Graphic: wc_gr002611
Just left of the controller display window is the voltage adjustment
rheostat (b). Use the rheostat to adjust the AC voltage output. Loosen
locking nut and turn adjusting screw clockwise to increase voltage,
counter-clockwise to decrease voltage. The voltage can be monitored
at the LCD panel.
3.12 Warning Light
See Graphic: wc_gr002611
The amber warning light (d) on the metering panel will turn on prior to
an engine fault condition occurring. This acts as a pre-alarm to call
attention to a potential fault condition. At the same time the warning
light goes on, the LCD panel will begin blinking to indicate which
engine function is approaching its fault value.
Engine Pre-alarm Set Points:
• Fuel Level = 25%
• High Temperature = 226°F
• Low Oil Pressure = 20 psi
• Time to Service = 0 hours
• Sender Failure = engine coolant and oil pressure senders.
Note: Time to Service and Sender Failure faults will not shut down the
generator.
