ADjUSTING FOR DROOP
Droop adjustments are made while the engine is running. Setting droop reduces
the speed as fuel position (load) increases.
To maintain engine stability, at the minimum speed setting, add a small amount of
droop. At maximum speed performance will be near isochronous regardless of the
droop adjustment setting.
1.
Open the GAConfig Tool on your PC. From the Main menu, select Engine
Tuning and locate the Tuning pane.
2. Check that Lead Circuit is deselected. The default is selected.
3.
From the main menu select Advanced Configuration settings and locate the
Droop box.
4. Set No Load Current to the measured / displayed current value when operat-
ing at no load rated speed (default value is 0.5 A).
5. Set Full Load Current to the measured / displayed current value when operat-
ing at full load rated speed (default value is 6.0 A).
6.
Set Droop to the desired settings for each of the three fixed speeds and one
variable speed as needed.
The No Load Current value must be set to less than Full Load Current and the difference between the two
must be at least 0.5 A.
If an invalid combination is entered a warning message displays and the default to 0.5 A and 6.0 A.
Speed Switch (SSW) Output receives information from sensors for low and high
speed settings as well as other speed parameters when using a speed switch in
your solution. This outputs a signal when the governor is governing at or above
the specified limit.
The SSW parameters adjust between 100 to 6000 rpm. The default value is 1800
rpm and the default state is Normally Open.
1.
From the GAConfig Tool Main menu, select Speed Switches and navigate to
the Speed Switch Output box.
2. At Limit / Threshold set the rpm limit for speed switch 1 output.
3. From Mode, select one of the following from the drop down menu:
•
Normally Open output from Pin 8 energizes at the set rpm.
•
Normally Closed output from Pin 8 de-energizes at set rpm.
4.
Select the Latching checkbox on the Speed Switch (SSW) Output pane to set
the SSW output state to fixed until power to the EEG7000 is cycled. When the
box is not checked the output state automatically resets to the SSW Limit rpm
to 0 without a system reset.
