10.2 SHAFT generator controller principles
10.2.1 Adding a SHAFT generator controller to the single-line diagram
Configure each SHAFT generator controller in the single-line diagram, using PICUS.
To add a SHAFT generator controller to the single-line diagram:
1. In PICUS, under
Configure > Single-line
, drag the
shaft generator icon
to the right place on the
single-line diagram.
2. Select the SHAFT generator controller on the single-line diagram, and make sure that its
Controller ID
is correct.
3. Broadcast the changes to all the controllers in the system.
•
If needed you can override the controller ready status.
