ADJUSTING FOR DROOP

EXAMPLE

ADJUSTING FOR STABILITY

GAIN - RATED SPEED & IDLE SPEED

 Once the engine is running at operating speed and at no load, the following 

governor performance adjustments can be made to increase engine stability.

GAIN TYPE

ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

RATED SPEED

1.

Selected when IDLE input is disconnected.

The EEG6500 is equipped with two separate gains, one for rated 
speed, the other for idle speed.  Both are set using the GAIN set-

ting on the Quikset menu.  

NOTE

NOTE

IDLE SPEED

1.
2.
3.

Connect the idle input to ground.
Change GAIN value.
Disconnect Idle input from ground to switch back to Rated.

Idle icon will blink.

QUIKSET MENU

PARAMETER

ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

A.

GAIN

1.
2.
3.

4.

Increase this parameter until instability develops. 
Then, gradually decrease this parameter until stability returns.
Finally, decrease this parameter one increment further to ensure 

stable performance. 
If instability persists, adjust the next parameter.

B.

STABILITY

1.

2.

Follow the same adjustment procedure as the GAIN parameter.
If instability persists, adjust the next parameter.

C. DEADTIME 1.

If fast instability occurs, switch DEADTIME to low and repeat 

steps A & B.

Normally, adjustments made at no load achieve satisfactory per-
formance. For further performance, refer to sections (10) & (11).

NOTE

EEG6500 - Variable Speed Response to External Voltage Input  

Variable Speed Parameter (VSPD)- ‘ON’

After the initial set up is completed and the # of Teeth, Crank Termination 

Speed and Rated Speed are set, position the external switch connecting 

terminals ‘H’ and ‘K’ on to activate the DROOP mode following these sequence 

steps.

1.  Go to the Advanced menu: Press and hold all three buttons simultaneous-

ly for two seconds to switch to Advanced Menu. 

2.  Confirm that the 

VSPD

 (Variable Speed / Fixed Speed Control) is off. 

Default position is off.  

3.  Confirm that the 

LEAD

 circuit is off. Default position is ON. 

4.  Set the 

NLCU

 (No Load Current) to the measured / displayed current 

value when operating at no load rated speed (default value is 0.5 amps.) 

5.     Set the 

FLCU

 (Full Load Current) to the measured / displayed current     

         value when operating at full load rated speed (default value is 4.0 amps.) 

6.     Return to the Main Menu: Press and hold all three buttons simultaneously  

        for two seconds to switch to the Main Menu. 

7.     Select and set DROOP to the desired percentage. 

8.     Change the Speed parameter, which turns into the ‘DROOP OFFSET’.          

         This sets the RPM, above operating speed, to which the system will be    

        commanded when DROOP is enabled. This is an offset value.  

 

1500 RPM operating speed x 0.05 (5.0% droop) = 75 RPM 

Input 75 RPM, this is the offset value.

The 

NLCU

 entered must be less than the 

FLCU

 and the differnece between 

the two must be at least 0.5A.  If an invalid combination is entered a warning 

will be flagged and the parameters will be default to 0.5A and 4.0A.
