Automatic/remote start-up
Background
In the REMOTE START position, the generator can be started remotely, either
through a transfer switch or some other type of remote start switch. REMOTE
START is the normal setting when using the generator as a stand-by power supply.
Prerequisites
Before placing the generator in the automatic start-up mode, review the
Before
Starting
and
Manual Starting
sections in this Operator’s Manual and follow the
procedure below.
Start-up
procedure
1. Perform a manual start at least once to verify that the metering panel is
operating correctly. Refer to sections
Before Starting
and
Manual Starting
in this
Operator’s Manual.
2. To perform an optional check of the auto start-up circuit:
Attach a short jumper wire (minimum 16 gauge insulated) between the two
terminals on the remote run terminal block. The jumper wire applies a ground to
the ECM to complete the start circuit.
Wait for the engine to crank, start, and run.
Move the engine start switch to off “O” to stop the engine.
Remove the jumper wire from the remote run terminals after testing is
complete.
3. Secure the generator by closing and locking all doors.
4. Set the engine start switch to REMOTE START and close the main line circuit
breaker.
The generator is now ready for automatic starting.
Maintaing
battery charge
If the generator is to be used as a stand-by power supply, provisions must be made
to maintain the battery charge. This can be done either by attaching a battery
charger to the battery or by starting the generator manually and running the engine
periodically to maintain a charge. See section
Manual Starting.
CAUTION
Possibility of accidental equipment start-up. If the contacts on any remote switch
linked to the generator are closed, the generator could start unexpectedly when the
engine start switch is moved to the REMOTE START position.
f
Before placing the engine start switch
(e)
in the REMOTE START position,
verify that the contacts on any remote switch linked to the generator set are
OPEN.
