DANGER!
During shaft generator regulation, the ship crew cannot use the shaft to regulate the ship speed.
More information
See the
Regulation
chapter for detailed information about regulation.
Inputs and outputs
Assign the regulation inputs and outputs under
Configure > Input/output
. Select the hardware module, then select the input/output
to configure.

Digital input
Continuous
The controller only activates shaft generator
regulation if this input is configured and activated.
Note: This input is only visible after configuring a
regulator.
Governor regulation
Analogue output, or
digital outputs
Depends on the output
type
See the
Regulation
chapter.
AVR regulation
Analogue output, or
digital outputs
Depends on the output
type
See the
Regulation
chapter.
When the regulation outputs are configured, all of the other regulation inputs and outputs become available. See the
Regulation
chapter for more information.
Parameters
When the regulation outputs are configured, all of the regulation parameters become available. See the
Regulation
chapter for
more information.
For regulation, you must configure the SHAFT generator running feedback measurement. See
GENSET controller, GENSET
controller principles, Running detection
for more information.
How it works
When
Regulation ON
is activated, the SHAFT generator controller can receive regulation set points from other controllers on the
DEIF network. The SHAFT generator controller can send regulation signals to adjust the frequency and/or voltage of the shaft
generator.
You can use any of the following for shaft generator regulation:
•
The regulation inputs and outputs
•
The regulation parameters
•
The regulation alarms
•
The regulation modes
•
External regulation set points
•
Stand-alone GAM3.2
Shaft generator regulation does not include the following:
•
Shaft prime mover start and stop
•
Overspeed and underspeed protections
Shaft generator load transfer without connecting gensets example
The system has two shaft generators (SG1 and SG2). SG1 has shaft generator regulation.
