The unit offers the possibility of
Remote Start
mode of operation. Any digital input may be assigned as
Remote Start Input
using
Input Function Select
program parameters.
The
Remote Start
signal may be a NO or NC contact, switching to either battery positive or battery negative.
These selections are made using programming menu.
It is also necessary to set the
ACTION
program parameter of the related input to
3
in order to prevent any
alarm from this input.
When a
Remote Start
input is defined, the battery bank voltage is not monitored. When the
Remote
Start
signal is present then the battery bank voltage will be supposed to be below genset starting
threshold, inversely when the
Remote Start
signal is absent then the battery bank voltage will be
supposed to be above threshold.
The unit offers an optional
Disable Auto Start
signal input. Any digital input may be assigned as
Disable
Auto Start
using
Input Function Select
program parameters
.
It is also necessary to set the
ACTION
program parameter of the related input to
3
in order to prevent any
alarms generated from this input.
The
Disable Auto Start
signal may be a NO or NC contact, switching to either battery positive or battery
negative. These selections are made using the programming menu.
If the
Disable Auto Start
input is defined and the input signal is active, the battery bank voltage is not
monitored and supposed to be above the genset starting threshold. This will prevent the genset from
starting even in case of a low battery bank voltage. If the genset is running when the signal is applied, the
current charge cycle will be performed until its end.
When the signal is passive, the unit will revert to normal operation and monitor the battery bank voltage in
order to initiate a charge cycle.
The REMOTE START operation overrides DISABLE AUTO
START and FORCE TO START operations.
