INSTABILITY
INSTABILITY
SYMPTOM
PROBABLE CAUSE OF ABNORMAL READING
Fast Periodic
The engine seems to jitter with
a 3Hz or faster irregularity of
speed.
1.
2.
Readjust the GAIN and STABILITY for optimum control.
In extreme cases, change the DEADTIME parameter.
Slow Periodic
Speed irregularity below 3Hz.
(Sometimes severe)
1.
2.
Check fuel system linkage during engine operation for:
a. binding
b. high friction
c. poor linkage
DEADTIME Parameter set too high.
Non-Periodic
Erratic Engine Behavior
1. Increasing the GAIN should reduce the instability but not totally correct it. If this is the case, there is most
likely a problem with the engine itself.
Check for:
a. engine mis-firings
b. an erratic fuel system
c. load changes on the generator set voltage regulator.
If unsuccessful in solving instability, contact GAC for assistance.

SYSTEM TROUBLESHOOTING
If the engine governing system does not function, the fault may be determined by performing the voltage tests described in Steps 1 through 3. Positive (+) and negative (-) refer to meter
polarity. Should normal values be indicated during troubleshooting steps, then the fault may be with the actuator or the wiring to the actuator. Tests are performed with battery power on and
the engine off, except where noted. See actuator publication for testing procedure on the actuator.

CUSTOMER ACTION
1
Actuator over current (continuous)
Actuator turned off for 30 sec.
Check actuator wiring.
2
Loss of speed signal (inc/dec in speed by more than
64Hz in 4ms, 16KHz/s)
WARNING indicator blinks then system shutdown
Check speed pickup.
3
Over speed (speed exceeds OVER SPEED setting
for 12 ms)
WARNING and OVER SPEED indicators blink
then system shutdown.
Check fuel system as well as
OVER SPEED, SPEED, and V.SPEED
203
Variable Speed settings are reversed. V.SPEED is
lower than SPEED.
WARNING indicator blinks, speed set to V.SPEED
setting, variable speed input unresponsive.
Flip V.SPEED and SPEED settings.
206
No potentiometer/signal detected on variable speed
input when VSPD enabled.
WARNING indicator blinks, speed set to SPEED
setting.
Check potentiometer wiring.
241
New software loaded. Configuration not compatible.
Default configuration used.
Reset configuration.
251
Software loaded on incompatible hardware.
WARNING indicator blinks then System shutdown.
Return unit to GAC
307
FLCU / NLCU Setting invalid
Load calculation done with 0.5 & 4.0 amp values
Adjust NLCU / FLCU per section 9
