Determines if the controller will monitor for false starts and
attempt a restart. Controller will only attempt restarting the
engine as many times as determined by Crank Attempts.
False Check
(False Restart
Detect Time) 5 ~ 30 sec in
1 second
intervals
8 s
Amount of time after successful cranking to monitor for a false
restart. A false restart is defined as the speed dropping below
250 RPM for 2 seconds. If this time expires and the engines
stalls out, the controller will not attempt a restart.
This time starts from crank success.
Tip: It takes up to 2 seconds for the false restart to be triggered. In addition it takes time for the engine speed to drop below
250RPM. These should be measured and added to the desired False Check setting.
For example when the speed is disconnected it takes approximately 2.5 s for the speed sensing to record 0 RPM when the
speed sensing is set to a magnetic input at a speed of 3200Hz/1800RPM. This is 4.5 s including the 2 s for the false restart
delay. So if the desired monitoring period is 10 s, the False Check setting should be set to 15 s.
4.5.1.3 OFF Button Function
The OFF button on the front panel of the controller can be configured to function in 3 different ways while the engine is running.
The table below describes each of these functions:
Function Description
Cooldown This function causes the controller to go into cooldown. Pressing the OFF button
again will cause the engine to shut down.
Shutdown This function bypasses Cooldown and causes the engine to shut down.
Force Cooldown This function causes the controller to activate the cooldown process. Pressing
the OFF button will have no affect as the controller is forcing the engine to
perform a full cool down.
WARNING : If the controller receives a command to start from the remote start or front panel run button while in
Cooldown, it will leave the Cooldown mode and go back to Running mode.
