2- 10.6 M8.6 - Expansion
The Expansion setup permits to select the type of use of the programmable outputs of an eventual TE6010 expansion board.
The outputs from ExOut_1 to ExOut_7 can be programmed as:
None: no function associated to the output
Start: the output is used to command the start of the genset to the engine protection controller
Siren: the output is used to command a siren that sounds when an alarm with siren enabled appears
Global alarm 1: the output is used to command an indication when an alarm set as general alarm 1 appears. The output remains active until you
reset or the alarm disappears
Engine running: the output is activated when the generator is running
Test active: the output is used to signal that the test is active
Dummy load: the output is used for the dummy load function. To have more information about this function, see menu 2-8.3
Off mode: indicates that the controller is in o
ff
/reset mode
Auto mode: indicates that the controller is in automatic mode
Man mode: indicates that the controller is in manual mode
Global alarm 2: the output is used to command an indication when an alarm set as general alarm 2 appears. The output remains active until you
reset or the alarm disappears
Global alarm 3: the output is used to command an indication when an alarm set as general alarm 3 appears. The output remains active until you
reset or the alarm disappears
KG active: indicates that the generator contactor is closed
KR active: indicates that the mains contactor is closed
Alarm A: the output is active when the alarm assigned to A position by M8.2 - g parameter is active
Alarm B: the output is active when the alarm assigned to B position by M8.2 - h parameter is active
Alarm C: the output is active when the alarm assigned to C position by M8.2 - i parameter is active
Start failure: indicates that the generator is not detected running after the starting procedure
Electrical trip: the output is activated if the Electrical trip alarm is active
GE ready: the output is activated when the generator is ready to take the load
All the parameters available in the Expansion setup are:
POS.
NAME
RANGE OF VALUES
DEFAULT SETTINGS
A
Enable
On to enable communication between Genset and expansion board.
O
ff
B
Bitrate (bps)
Change the serial speed value for expansion board. To activate the new port speed the
expansion must be switch o
ff
. At the new start up the serial port will be ready at the new
speed value:
1 = Set 9600 bps
2 = Set 19200 bps
3 = Set 38400 bps (expansion def.)
4 = Set 57600 bps
5 = Set 115200 bps
0 (expansion def.)
C
Timeout (s)
Set the timeout delay on communication between Genset and expansion board:
Set the value from 1 to 255 (s), 0 is the expansion default value which is 5 s.
0 (expansion def.)

Note
: If you are using a RI6010M (8 digital outputs), the 8 outputs are from ExOut_0 to ExOut_7.
If you are using a RI6010C (5 relay outputs), the 5 outputs are from ExOut_0 to ExOut_4.
