Parameter 163

emergency YES
Configuration of the emergency power (AMF) YES/NO
Parameters are grouped together in blocks to permit quicker navigation through the
large number of configuration screens. Selecting "YES" or "NO" has no effect if
controlling or monitoring is performed. This parameter has the following effects:
YES .............. The configuration screens in the next block are displayed and can ei-
ther be viewed ("Select" push-button) or modified ("Cursor→", "Di-
git↑" or "Select" push-buttons).
NO ................ The parameters in the next block are not displayed, cannot be mod-
ified and are therefore skipped.
NOTE
Emergency power is only possible with synchronous generators utilizing 2 circuit breakers (i.e. GCP-
32 or GCP-31 with LS 4 coupling).
Prerequisite: The emergency power (AMF) function may only be enabled with synchronous generators using
Parameter 163 ("Emergency power"). Emergency power operat
ions are only performed in AUTOMATIC or
TEST mode regardless of the status of the discrete inputs "Automatic 1" and "Automatic 2".
NOTE
If the "Engine enable" or "Engine block" function is assigned to terminal 6 (Parameter 240), emergency
power can be prevented or interrupted from an external source through a discrete input. Refer to
"Terminal 6" on page 111.
If Parameter 236 is configured ON and discrete input 11 at terminal 68 is energized, emergency
power
operation will also be prevented or interrupted (see
Enable 'Emergency OFF' via terminal 68 on page 110).
Activation of emergency power: If a mains voltage fault (over-/undervoltage, -frequency or phase/vector jump)
is detected on any single phase of terminals 50/51/52 without interruption for the duration of the emergency
power start delay time (Parameter 165), emergency power is activated. A m
ains voltage fault is defined as fol-
lows: If the mains watchdogs (Parameter 206 and/or Parameter 211) are configured to ON and the applicable
lim
it values set there are surpassed; otherwise, the limits are internally defined as follows:
Mains watchdogs Voltage Frequency

Emergency power (AMF) is also initiated through the detection of a breaker alarm when the MCB is closed. In
order to enable this, Parameter 164 ("Emergency power) and Parameter 158 ("MCB monitoring") must be confi-
gured to "ON".
