VOLTAGE REGULATOR (OPTION)
All panels include automatic voltage regulation as
standard. There are various settings that can be
made to the voltage regulator via GenLink. The set-
tings are normally factory preset and are shown here
for completeness.
Voltage KP/KI/KD — Voltage regulation stability
constants.
PMG — YES indicates a Permanent Magnet Excited
alternator.
VF Corner 1 / 2. — These are used for v/f control
to reduce the output voltage when a large load is
applied that slows down the generator. If the fre-
quency drops below these setpoints, the voltage
is reduced proportionally as the frequency drops
according to the Volts per Hertz ratio.
Panel Type — Indicates the panel type that the H-
100 Control Panel has been programmed to be. It
will normally be H-100.
Volts per Hertz — Number of volts to reduce the
generator voltage for each hertz below VF Corner
1 frequency.
AVR Dump Improve — Makes the regulator mod-
ule increase the gain temporarily on a load dump
to improve the transient voltage response.
Unit Rated Power — This is the generator’s rated
power in kW.

GOVERNOR (SPEED REGULATOR)
OPTION
All panels include automatic frequency (speed) regu-
lation as standard. There are various settings that
can be adjusted for the governor via GenLink, these
include the target frequency. The settings are normal-
ly factory preset and are shown here for complete-
ness, they do not apply to all governor types.
Standby KP,KI,KD — Frequency regulation stability
constants used for normal mode operation.

QuietTest® KP,KI,KD — Frequency regulation sta-
bility constants used for QuietTest® mode opera-
tion.
Actuator Type — Indicates the type of governor
actuator. The following types are available:
- POWERFLOW — Barber Coleman Powerflow,
voltage driven without position feedback
- BOSCH GAS — Bosch Butterfly, current driven
with position feedback
- LINEAR CURRENT — Linear, Current Driven
without position feedback
- DETROIT DIESEL — Detroit diesel PWM Driven
- BOSCH HORIZONTAL DIESEL — Bosch Diesel
Arm with Horizontal Connecting Rod and current
driven with position feedback
- BOSCH VERTICAL DIESEL — Bosch Diesel Arm
with Vertical Connecting Rod and current driven
with position feedback
Actuator Offset — Number corresponding to lowest
actuator position (Close Throttle).
Actuator Fullscale — Number corresponding to
highest actuator position (Open Throttle).
Actuator Normal Start Position — The position
the actuator will be parked at from start up until
the “Start detection RPM” is reached. If “soft start”
is enabled, this is also the maximum position of
the throttle until the Target Frequency - 3 Hz is
reached. Therefore, if “soft start” is enabled, the
actuator start position MUST be high enough to
reach, Target Frequency - 3 Hz.
Actuator QuietTest® Start Position — The position
the actuator will be parked at from start up until
the “Start detection RPM” is reached. If “soft start”
is enabled, this is also the maximum position of the
throttle until the QuietTest® Target Frequency - 3
Hz is reached. Therefore, if “soft start” is enabled,
the actuator start position MUST be high enough
to reach, QuietTest® Target Frequency - 3 Hz.
Soft Start Time — The time to stay at each soft
start step before moving on to the next step. ( Only
applies if soft start is enabled ).
Soft Start Frequency — An entry of 0 Hz disables
soft start. Any other value enables soft start which
ramps up the generator frequency at a rate deter-
mined by “Soft Start Time” to minimize smoke.
This value selects the first frequency to target after
start up. Once this frequency is attained, the gen-
erator will hold this frequency for the “Soft Start
Time” and then move to the next step. Each step
is 3 Hz higher with the final step being “Target
Frequency” - 3 Hz. Each step is held for the “Soft
Start Time”. During soft start, the throttle will not
be allowed to exceed the “Actuator Start Position”.
Diesel — Indicates if this is a diesel powered gen-
erator. This modifies such features as frequency
control, and others.
