11. TROUBLESHOOTING 

 

 
AC voltages or frequency displayed on the unit are not correct:  

 
-Check  engine  body  grounding,  it  is  necessary.  For  testing,  connect  together  the  BAT(-)  and  Neutral 
terminals together to check if the fault disappears. 
-The error margin of the unit is +/- 3 volts.  
-If  there  are  faulty  measurements  only  when  the  engine  is  running,  there  may  be  a  faulty  charging 
alternator or voltage regulator on the engine. Disconnect the charging alternator connection of the engine 
and check if the error is removed. 
-If there are faulty measurements only  when mains are present, then the battery charger may  be failed. 
Turn off the rectifier fuse and check. 
 

 
Phase-to-Phase AC voltages are not correct although Phase to Neutral  voltages are correct:  

 
-Incorrect phase order. Please connect phase voltages in the correct order. 
 

 
KW and cos

Φ

 readings are faulty although the Amp readings are correct: 

 
-Current  transformers  are  not  connected  to  the  correct  inputs  or  some  of  the  CTs  are  connected  with 
reverse  polarity.  Determine  the  correct  connections  of  each  individual  CT  in  order  to  obtain  correct  KW 
and cos

Φ

 for the related phase, and then connect all CTs.  

 

 

Short circuit the outputs of unused Current Transformers. 

 
 

When the RUN button is pressed, the unit energizes the fuel solenoid, but does not start and OIL 
PRESSURE led flashes: 

 
The unit is not supplied with battery (-) voltage at the oil pressure input. 
-Oil pressure switch not connected. 
-Oil pressure switch connection wire cut. 
-Oil pressure switch faulty. 
-Oil  pressure  switch  closes  too  lately.  If  oil  pressure  switch  closes,  the  unit  will  start.  Optionally  oil 
pressure switch may be replaced. 
 

 
The  engine  does  not  run  after  the  first  start  attempt,  then  the  unit  does  not  start  again  and  OIL 
PRESSURE led flashes:  

 
-The oil pressure switch closes very lately. As the unit senses an oil pressure, it does not start. When oil 
pressure switch closes the unit will start. Optionally the oil pressure switch may be replaced.
