5. Startup and Configuration 2-2017

3. The PowerCommand

control will initiate a starter cranking signal and will

perform an automatically sequenced manual start, under a complete engine

protection system combined with full monitoring capability. This will activate the

engine control system and the starting procedure. The starter will begin

cranking and, after a few seconds, the engine will start and the starter will

disconnect.

If the engine fails to start, the starter will disengage after a specified period of

time and the control will indicate a Fail to Start shutdown.

To clear a Fail to Start shutdown:

a. Press the Stop button.

b. Press the Reset button.

4. Before attempting to re-start, wait a minimum of two minutes for the starter

motor to cool and then repeat the starting procedure. If the engine does not run

after a second attempt, refer to the Troubleshooting section of the operator

manual.

DISABLING MANUAL MODE

To disable Manual mode, change to Auto or Off mode. If the generator set is

running when it leaves Manual mode, it will continue to run if Auto mode has been

selected and the remote start signal is active. If there is no active remote start

signal, the generator set will stop.

Starting from Remote Location (Auto Mode)

NOTICE

Make sure that all Pre-start Checks are carried out before starting the

generator set. Do not attempt to start the generator set until it is safe to do

so. Warn all others in the vicinity that the generator set is about to start.

1. To start the generator set in the Auto Run mode, select the Auto button from

the operator panel. Refer also to the Selecting Auto Mode section.

Once the PowerCommand

control receives a remote start signal, and after a

Time Delay to Start, the control will initiate the starting sequence as above. The

Remote Start LED will be lit.

NOTICE

If the mode change access code feature has been enabled, enter the

access code when prompted. See the Passwords and Mode Change

Access section.
