Page 

M.11  (SYNCHRONIZATION)

  displays  synchronization  information.  The  use  of  the  displayed 

synchronoscope in MAN mode allows the manual synchronization (par. 6.2.1). 

Page 

M.12 (PARALLEL)

 displays the information when the genset is in parallel with the mains or other 

gensets. It displays the active and reactive power and the power factor. It also displays currents, 
medium 

voltage 

and 

genset 

frequency. 

In this page it is possible to change the power supplied in the application of parallel with the mains 

BASE LOAD

 and 

IMPORT/EXPORT

 

Page 

M.13  (SETPOINTS)

 shows  and  allows  to modify  (in  a  unique  point)  all  setpoints  applicable  for 

plant, relative to speed and voltage governor.  

The setpoints are shown only if are not acquired by analogue inputs and are provided in the plant 
configuration. 

Page 

M.14 (SETPOINTS 2)

 shows (in a unique point) all setpoints applicable for plant, relative to speed 

and voltage governor, acquired by analogue inputs.  

INFORMATION!  Some of the data is not displayed in mono-phase configuration. 

 

The engine related measurements are shown in this mode. 

Page 

E.01 (ENGINE 1)

 displays the main values of the engine: Oil pressure (bar), Coolant temperature 

(°C) and engine speed (rpm).  

If any of these values is not available, it’ll be replaced with dashes. Under some electrical measures, 
the  controller  also  displays  a  bar  showing  graphically  the  value  measured  compared  to  the  full-
scale: on the bar are also one or more notches representing the eventual thresholds. The colour 
with which the band is filled is green if the measure is in tolerance (shutdown), yellow if the measure 
is out of tolerance (for warning).  

Page 

E.02 (ENGINE 2)

 displays the starter battery voltage (V), the fuel level (%) and the oil temperature 

(°C). 

If any of these values is not available, it’ll be replaced with dashes. Under some electrical measures, 
the  controller  also  displays  a  bar  showing  graphically  the  value  measured  compared  to  the  full-
scale: on the bar are also one or more notches representing the eventual thresholds. The colour 
with which the band is filled is green if the measure is in tolerance (shutdown), yellow if the measure 
is out of tolerance (for warning).  

Page 

E.03 (ENGINE COUNTERS)

 displays the starter and hours of work counter (partial and total hours, 

load hours, Override and hours until the next maintenance). 

The  number  of  pages  displayed  may  depend  on  the  type  of  engine  (

J1939

MTU

  or

  without 

communication interface

). 

Pages 

E.04, E.05, E.06, E.07, E.08, E.09 (CANBUS 1...6)

 display a series of information acquired via 

CAN-BUS  by  the  engine  (or  via  RS485  for  some  CUMMINS  engines).  The  number  and  type  of 
available measures depend on the engine type. The information not available are shown with some 
dashes. The measures are acquired only  if the CAN-BUS communication  with engine  has  been 
enabled. 

INFORMATION!  The  display  of  some  parameters  depends  on  the  engine  model  used.  If  some 

information is not available, some pages might not to be visible. 

The 

E.10  FUEL  PUMP

 

(FUEL  PUMP)

  page  (available  only  if  the  fuel  pump  management  output  is 

configured) contains information and commands for the fuel pumps. 

The  pages 

E.11-12-13

 

(EXTERNAL  MEASURES) 

display  the  measures  acquired  by  the  analogue 

inputs  configured  as  generic  sensors.  The  controller  shows  one  measure  per  line:  it  shows  the
