Parameter 94
Configure
automatic YES
Configuration of automatic YES/NO
The automatic control functions are configured in this block of parameters. This
parameter has the following effects:
YES .............. The parameters in this block are displayed and can either be viewed
("Select" button), or modifications can be made to the parameters
("Cursor→", "Digit↑" or "Select" buttons).
NO ................ The parameters in this block are not displayed, cannot be modified,
and are skipped.
Load Management
NOTE
To enable the automatic start/stop function, "Active power load-share" (Parameter 90) must be confi-
gured to “ON”, regardless if additional generators are available for load sharing.
NOTE
The automatic start/stop functionality of the engine, requires that identical rated power (Parameter 21)
be configured in all participating controls.
Load-Dependent Start/Stop in Mains Parallel Operation
Parameter 95
Loadd.start/stop
at ter.3 ON
Load dependent start/stop: enable via terminal 3 ON/OFF
ON ................ The automatic start/stop functionality is enabled. When the discrete
input "Automatic 1" (terminal 3) is energized, the GCP-30 will au-
tomatically start/stop dependent upon the measured load in accor-
dance with how generator real power set point 1 (Parameter 35) is
confi
gured. If terminal 5 is energized simultaneously, terminal 3 has
priority and will override terminal 5. The subsequent screens of this
function are displayed.
OFF .............. The automatic start/stop functionality is disabled. The generator will
start only when terminal 3 is energized and stop when de-energized.
The generator is loaded in accordance with how generator real power
set point 1 (Parameter 35) is configured. The subsequent screens of
t
his function are not displayed.
Parameter 96
Loadd.start/stop
at ter.5 ON
Load dependent start/stop: enable via terminal 5 ON/OFF
ON ................ The automatic start/stop functionality is enabled. When the discrete
input "Automatic 2" (terminal 5) is energized, the GCP-30 will au-
tomatically start/stop dependent upon the measured load in accor-
dance with how generator real power set point 2 (Parameter 36) is
confi
gured. If terminal 3 is energized simultaneously, terminal 3 has
priority and will override terminal 5. The subsequent screens of this
function are displayed.
OFF .............. The automatic start/stop functionality is disabled. The generator will
start only when terminal 3 is energized and stop when de-energized.
The generator is loaded in accordance with how generator real power
set point 1 (Parameter 35) is configured. The subsequent screens of
t
his function are not displayed.
