16.1.2 Warning messages
All warning messages defined for the Panda iControl 2 and the corresponding display output are compiled in the
subsequent table.
Fig. 16.1.2-1: Warning messages
16.2 Faults
Error messages are issued when the monitored variable, e.g. a temperature, reaches the defined fault threshold.
With the temperature sensors, a loose connection or a broken cable will result in a fault, as well, and cause the
generator to shut down.
An error message is typically preceded by a warning, as the warning threshold is reached before the fault threshold.
Error messages are output on the Panda iControl2 panel display in the form of the error text shown on a cleared
display page. Faults do not become active until the time between reaching the fault threshold and the defined delay
has expired.
Faults result in the generator shutting down. If a fault occurs due to the battery voltage being too low, the controller is
completely shut down to prevent the battery from discharging too much.
Examples of an error message on the display:
Fig. 16.2-1: Fault: „Cylinder head temperature out of range“Fault: „Exhaust manifold temperature out of range“
(broken cable)
Fig. 16.2-2: Fault: „STARTING FAILS“, start-up process was not
successful
Fault: „Winding“, winding temperature too high
Warning message on the display Meaning of warning message
„HIGH“ flashes, alternating with the temperature value of the cylinder head Cylinder head temperature is too high, the warning threshold
was reached
„HIGH“ flashes, alternating with the temperature value of the winding Winding temperature is too high, the warning threshold was
reached
„HIGH“ flashes, alternating with the temperature value of the exhaust manifold Exhaust manifold temperature is too high, the warning
threshold was reached
„LOW“ flashes, alternating with the voltage value of the starter battery Starter battery voltage is too low, the warning threshold was
reached
