Shutdowns and Alarms
The Shutdowns and Alarms menu is used to configure the generator protection
functions of the EGCP-2.
Each alarm set point can be set for:
 Disabled
 Warning—LED on control flashes.
 Visual Alarm—LED flashes, and Visual Alarm relay energizes.
 Audible Alarm—LED flashes, Visual and Audible Alarm relays energize.
 Soft Shutdown—LED turns on, Visual and Audible Alarm relays energize,
unit soft unloads, Fuel Solenoid relay de-energizes and cycles through cool
down timer when applicable. Unit removes itself from auto sequencing
order.
 Hard Shutdown--Same as above, but immediately opens generator breaker
and de-energizes the fuel solenoid.
Voltage Range Alarm
 Alarm/Shutdown point for an excess of voltage bias signal from the EGCP-2
to AVR.
 Preset to trigger at ±100% voltage bias output.
 Indicates that the AVR is not responding to the voltage bias output as
expected.

Operating Range
Figure 4-20. Generator High/Low Voltage Alarms
Generator Volt High Limit
 Sets maximum allowable generator voltage level.
 If voltage is above High Limit, generator is not considered stable, and is unfit
for breaker closure.
Generator Volt Low Limit
 Sets minimum allowable generator voltage level.
 If voltage is below Low Limit, generator is not considered stable, and is unfit
for breaker closure
 Voltage Bias will not decrease while generator voltage is below the low limit.
