D-500L Firmware V-5.8
K35D03-EN - 35 -
When the Engine Controller functionality is selected, genset electrical measurements and protections will
be disabled. The unit is supposed to control an engine without alternator.
When the
Engine Control Mode
is activated:
-the unit will not display genset AC parameters (volts, amps, kW and pf).
-genset voltage and frequency protections are disabled. However engine rpm protections will be
active.
Note that the engine controller functionality is compatible with both AMF and Remote Start modes.
When AMF and Engine controller modes are selected, the unit will monitor the mains and will run the
engine upon mains failure. This functionality is useful for the backup electric motor driven systems during
mains failures, like fire pump or irrigation systems.
When Remote Start and Engine controller modes are selected, the unit will start and stop the engine with
external signal only.
The unit features both MPU and J1939 CANBUS inputs. Thus both mechanical and electronic engines
are supported.
It is strongly recommended to wire speed detection
through MPU or J1939-CANBUS and enter correct
low and high rpm limit values in order to preserve
engine speed protection.
