OPTION #1 MOMENTARY START CONTACT - TYPICAL GENERATOR W/ STARTER CONTROL BOX
The GSCM-mini-D option #1 provides the same momentary glow plug operation for those 3 wire diesel applications where the key switch
or off button is pressed for 10 seconds energizing the glow plugs, then the start button is pressed starting the generator. The GSCM-
mini-D energizes K2 for 10 seconds to heat the glow plugs, then energizes K1 relay, providing a signal to the start/crank input and
removes it when the generator has reached 45Hz, or half speed. The K2 relay also provides a momentary “stop” signal until the
generator AC Hz has dropped to zero. For operational sequence details see Page 4, Section - 1
OPTION #2 MAINTAINED START CONTACT TYPICAL GENERATOR W/ STARTER CONTROL BOX
The K1 relay provides a continuous run signal for generators
A double pole “kill switch” wired and installed by the user, stops
requiring a “maintained” start signal. The K2 relay provides a
