Starting the Engine
On first commissioning the control on the engine, the below instructions should be strictly
followed. This is the only way to ensure that the engine can be started without any problems
later on.
These instructions, however, can give only some brief information on how to commission the
governor. For more detailed information you are requested to refer to the respective chapters
or manuals.
The instructions cover all parameters that must be adjusted before the engine is started. It
should be noted, however, that the parameter values used for these instructions are adduced
only by way of example. For actual operation they must at any rate be replaced by appropriate
values that suit the engine and the specific application.
1. Adjust distance of speed pickup
-
The distance between the pickup and the top of the teeth should be approx. 0.5 to
0.8 mm. For more detailed information see the manuals of the basis systems.
2. Check
linkage.
- The linkage must operate smoothly and easily, and it must be capable of moving to the
stop and maximum fuel positions.
3. Check
wiring
- Check switching functions and digital inputs
On actuating any switch, the respective indication parameter should reflect the change.
If several switches are provided this check must be conducted for all of them.
- Check analogue inputs
On first commissioning the engine, it is only the setpoint adjusters that are needed since
the functions operating by signals from the analogue inputs (such as boost pressure
dependent fuel limitation, speed dependent oil pressure monitoring, etc.) must not yet be
activated. Nevertheless, all analogue inputs should be checked.
Example: Let us assume that setpoint adjuster 1 has been connected to analogue input 1.
When altering the set value, the parameter 3511
AnalogIn1_Value
is expected
to change accordingly. If there is no change, the wiring of the setpoint
adjuster must be at fault. Together with 3511
AnalogIn1_Value
, the
parameter 3510
AnalogIn1
and the specific setpoint adjuster parameter 2900
Setpoint1Extern
are also bound to change from 0 to 100 % when the setpoint
adjuster is turned from minimum into maximum position. If this is not the
case, the input will have to be normalized.
