REMOTE CONTROLS START, STOP, TEST AND EJP FUNCTIONS 

 ENABLED WITH CONTROL UNIT IN AUTOMATIC AND IN TEST MODE  

CALL 

 

On closing the call contact operation is as with mains fault. 

 

 ENABLED WITH CONTROL UNIT IN AUTOMATIC 

 

STARTING 

 

When the start up contact (see page 6) is closed REMOTE STARTING is shown on the 

display. After the  REMOTE STARTUP DELAY time (programmed to 1 sec.) has elapsed, 

the start up begins, the general alarm is activated intermittently (for 8 seconds), then the 

general alarm is deactivated and after a pause of 3 seconds the start up cycle begins and 

operation is as with mains fault. 

When the startup contact is opened operation is as with mains return. 

 

TEST 

When the test contact is closed (see page 8) REMOTE TEST is shown on the display. 

The general alarm is activated intermittently (for 8 seconds). When the general alarm is 

deactivated, after a pause of 3 seconds the start up cycle begins. If there is a mains fault 

during the test, the control unit remains in test mode and, as in automatic, commands the 

closing of the generator contactor that will reopen when the mains returns. When the test 

contact is opened operation is as with mains return. 

If the automatic test is in progress the engine continues to run until the end of the 

automatic test. 

STOP 

When the stop contact is closed, REMOTE STOP is shown on the display. The control unit 

does not allow any startup operation, and if the generator set is running, it is stopped. 

The intervention of the remote control is shown on the display. 

 

EJP FUNCTION 

Choose EJP function (see TECHNICAL PROGRAMMING manual on page 18). 

When the START UP contact, connected to terminal 31, closes, EJP STARTUP is seen on 

the display. After the EJP STARTUP DELAY time (programmed to 25 min.) has elapsed , 

the start up procedure begins. When the switching contact (terminal 32) closes, EJP 

SWITCHING CONSENT is seen on the display and the operation is as when there is a 

mains fault. 

When the two EJP contacts are opened functioning is as when the mains power returns. 

 

 

VOLTMETRIC MAINS AND GENERATOR RELAYS 

INSIDE THE CONTROL UNIT

 

These check the mains and generator set voltage. They intervene in the event of: voltage 

failure, undervoltage, overvoltage, asymmetrical voltage and incorrect phase sequence 

MAINS RELAY 

When voltage has been detected on the three phases, with a value within the preset limits, 

after the  

MAINS ACCEPTANCE 

delay

 

(programmed  to 100 sec.) the generator set stops 

(for the starting and stopping procedures see automatic operation on page 4). 

 

GENERATOR RELAY 

When a voltage value is detected on the three phases of the operating generator set within 

the expected range, the generator contactor closes after the delay (setpoint equal to 7 

seconds) for “GENERATOR  TO POWER USERS CONNECTION”.    

When the voltage value detected is inferior or superior to the normally expected range, the 

generator contactor is de-energised.
