GC250 Technical Manual 13
1.3
For the appropriate use of this manual it is required knowledge of the use and of the
installation of generator groups.
WARNING
!!!
Every intervention must be carried out by skilled personnel. There are dangerous voltages
on the terminals of the device; before carrying out any operation on them, make sure to open
the mains and genset circuit breakers or to open the related fuses.
Do not remove or change any connection when the genset is running.
Do not disconnect for any reason the terminals of the current transformers (CT)
Wrong operations on the connections can cause the disconnection of the loads from the
mains or the genset.
Please read this manual carefully before using the device.
The device uses a large number of configurable parameters and it is therefore
impossible to describe all their possible combinations and effects.
In this document, there
isn’t a detailed description of all the programming parameters: to this
purpose, see documents [1]; these documents are to be considered as part of this manual.
The devices are s
upplied with a generic “default” configuration; it is at the installer’s
care to adjust the operating parameters to the specific application.
SICES srl carries out a great effort to improve and update its products; therefore, they are
subject to both hardware and software modifications without notice. Some of the features
described in this manual may therefore differ from those present in your device.
1.4
Although most of the parameters and features can be accessed and configured by directly
operating on the device,
some particular features or
configurations, due to their nature,
can only be set or changed through the PC program SICES Board Programmer3
(hereinafter called “BoardPrg3”), which can be downloaded for free after registration on the
SICES Srl website www.sices.eu
It simplifies a lot the configuration of the device and its use is strongly suggested. It also allows
you to save the current configuration of the device on a file and to reuse it on other identical
devices,
The program also allows the configuration, saving or loading of the characteristic curves of
non standard analogue sensors with resistive or live output.
BoardPrg3 is usable on every SICES device; the connection to the PC is only possible via
USB serial port; by connecting the USB port to the PC, the device automatically turns on and
it is therefore possible to modify the parameters without other supply sources. For the use of
the program, refer to the document [2].
1.5
In this document, the word “
ALARM
” is used to indicate a fault that makes the genset
operation impossible and causes the automatic and immediate turning off of the engine with
emergency procedure (without cooling period).
