DCU Engine Start/Stop Control
The DCU Engine Start/Stop Control can be configured to three different modes.
●
Exclusive
, the DCU has exclusive control of the engine start/stop. Warnings will be
given for unexpected state changes.
●
Shared
, the DCU has shared control of the engine start/stop. No warnings will be
given for unexpected state changes.
●
Deactivated
, the DCU is not in control of the engine start/stop. No warnings will be
given for unexpected state changes.
Disable Local Start/Stop Buttons
disables the local start/stop buttons on the DCU.
Any functional inputs configured for Local Start or Local Stop will still work.
Hold Buttons to Start/Stop
selects if the Start and Stop buttons shall be Latched or
Momentary. Set to
Yes
for a momentary Hold-To-Start/Stop button. The button must be
pressed until the engine has started/stopped. Set to
No
for a latched button. The button
needs to be pressed momentarily, after which the DCU completes the start/stop sequence
as if the button was held continuously.
Typical setting is No (gives a latched button operation, which is normally preferred).
Allow E-Start
allows the option to emergency start the engine. The E-Start will automatically
override any prelube sequence and override and shutdowns.
Only Allow Local Start in Local or Emergency Mode
should in virtually all installations be set
to
Yes
. If the setting is
No
, local start/stop will work in any mode of operation.
