Manual 37240C GCP-30 Series - Genset Control
Operation
In order to establish a connection between the GCP and the PLC, the correct entry of the generator number at the
GCP has to be observed:
Enter code
0000
1. Code level 2 has to be entered at the
GCP.
Direct para.
No
2. The direct configuration has to be
disabled if necessary.
Generator number
00
The entry for the generator number de-
termines the CAN ID of the unit.
Once connected to the CAN bus, the GW 4 may serve up to 8 GCPs. If the unit includes the options SC09/10 or
SB03, only 4 GCPs can be connected if the ECM data is to be visualized as well. Then, the GW 4 has to be con-
figured to extended blocks.
NOTE
This application is limited to 8 GCPs per interface at the moment. If more than 8 generators are to be
read out, a second GW 4 has to be used. An RS-485 hardware is recommended at the GW 4 in this
case. With this, both GW 4s can be read out with one interface of the automation device.
The interface control (start/stop and reset) for more than 8 units can not be performed at the moment
because of technical reasons. Please request newer software revisions.
