2- 8.2 M6.2 - Start by mains kW
Function that allows the generator’s automatic start and stop, according to the maximum and minimum thresholds programmable on mains
consumption.
If the load consumption from the mains supplies exceeds the START THRESHOLD for a period of time longer then the TIME FOR START, Genset
starts the generator and switch the load for the generator. When the value of load’s consumption is less than the STOP THRESHOLD at least for
the TIME FOR STOP time, the load is commutated to the mains (if available) and the generator is stopped. If the mains is missing, the load remains
on generator until the mains voltage is detected.

Load supplied by the mains: if the power consumption exceeds this value (at least

Time for start
It is the delay time for which the load consumption must remain over the threshold
value on the mains (point B); after this time the generator starts.

Stop power
Load is supplied by the generator:
if the power consumption returns to be less than this threshold value set (at least for
the “time for stop at point E), the load switches to the Mains and the generator is
stopped.

Time for stop
It’s the delay time for which the load consumption must remain below the threshold
value; after this time the load returns to the Mains and the generator is stopped.

the rated power factor (0,8) and the type of the system selected.
2- 8.3 M6.3 - Dummy load
Function that allows to activate one of the programmable outputs, according to the maximum and minimum thresholds programmable on load
consumption. If the load consumption is lower than the DUMMY ON for a period of time longer then the ON DELAY, the board activates all the
outputs that you programmed for Dummy load function (see par. 2-10 for the programmation of the outputs). When the value of load consumption is
higher than the DUMMY OFF at least for the OFF DELAY time, the outputs are de-activated. To activate this function, you have to set at least one
of the programmable outputs for “dummy load” (see par. 2-10), then you have to set the following parameters.
