Introduction
This document is designed to familiarize a user with the MPC-10 / TEC-10 and how to navigate the
interface and modify the settings when setting up and operating the controller. The Quick Set Up guide
assists with establishing the different functions in the MPC-10 / TEC-10 System Controller. Before
attempting to set up the controller, be sure to read and understand this manual in its entirety.
Murphy PowerCore 10 (MPC-10 / TEC-10)
The Murphy PowerCore 10 Controller (MPC-10 / TEC-10) is a general, all-purpose manual/auto start and
manual/auto throttling engine controller
designed with rental applications in mind. This is a powerful
controller that supports J1939 CAN protocols on electronically governed engines as well as analog
sensors on mechanical engines for monitoring and fault/safety shutdowns.
The MPC-10 / TEC-10 is flexible in many aspects, with the ability to:
•
use in most applications where auto start or auto throttling is required or desired;
•
use the same controller on electronically governed J1939 and mechanical engines;
•
use the same controller on 12VDC or 24VDC systems;
•
assign multiple levels of passcode protection to the menu;
•
use as auto start or manual start controller;
•
use as manual throttle or auto throttle controller;
•
change the input sensor type for analog inputs;
•
use analog inputs as digital ground inputs;
•
assign functions and actions to digital inputs;
•
use digital inputs as battery positive or ground inputs;
•
be mounted in all-weather environments;
•
be customer mounted in panel of choice (MPC-10 only).
Engine Application States and Delays
The Controller follows a standard operating sequence. This operating sequence is a set of machine states
that happen in a fixed order. Machine states can be set to zero if not needed or adjusted to fit the application.
The following states will be executed during the auto sequence, provided that the corresponding timer has
not been set to 00:00:00 or the controller has not been placed in a manual mode of operation:
•
Stabilize:
This is a timed state to allow the controller to enable the ECU or any senders
without warnings or errors. This timer can be disabled if set up for mechanical engine use.
•
Stopped:
This is a timed state where the engine is ready to be started manually or
automatically.
•
Standby:
This is a timed state that will shut off the LCD backlight, heater and CAN
transceiver to conserve power while the unit waits for a key press or an automatic start
condition.
•
Wait To Start:
when an engine is not ready to start and sends a message across the
J1939 communications stating it is not ready to start.
•
Auto Start Delay:
(
available in Auto Mode only)
The auto start condition is ignored and
must remain active throughout this delay or the delay is reset to zero.
•
Prestart Delay 1:
After a start condition has been accepted by the controller, this delay
begins timing, and the prestart output turns on. When this delay expires, the output is
turned off, and the start sequence continues.
•
Check Safe To Start:
This is a non-timed state that will check to ensure the engine can
start safely.
