The following table describes the different operating modes of the controller:
Modes

The following table describes the different methods for starting a controller. Unless using the Manual Run method to start the
controller, the controller must be in AUTO mode.
Starting Methods
Methods Description
Manual Run Pressing the Run button will start the engine. You must press the OFF button to shut down
the engine.
Start / Stop Switched Input When this input is active the engine will start. When the input becomes inactive the engine
will shut down.
Momentary Switched Inputs Switched inputs Momentary Start and Momentary Stop can be used for starting and stopping
of the engine. Unlike other inputs, they only have to be activated for a short period of time.
Battery Recharge When the battery voltage drops below a certain level the engine will start and run for a
predetermined amount of time.
Exerciser When the scheduled exerciser interval occurs the engine will start and run for a
predetermined amount of time.
Weekly Scheduler When a scheduled event occurs the engine will start and run for the programed amount of
time.
Auxiliary Sensors When a properly configured Auxiliary sensor falls below / rises above a certain point the
engine will start as determined by the Auxiliary Sensors -> Mode Select settings.
J1939 Start Start/stop command send over the J1939 CANbus. For example from the TR100 or a remote
telemetry device. The controller will display either "J1939 Run" or "J1939 Remote" as the
reason for starting.
ECM Power On This is not a starting mode like the others. In AUTO mode if the Auto button is held for 3s the
fuel output is turned on for 1 hour. "ECM Power On" will be displayed on the screen.
Pressing and holding again within the hour will refresh for another hour. This feature can be
used to turn on or activate equipment powered by the fuel output. Often this is used by a tech
to power the ECM on an electronic engine so a diagnostic tool can obtain information from
the ECM.
WARNING : See the Using Cooldown Mode section for more information on how it affects starting and stopping.
