I.C.S. SHUTDOWN CODES 

The I.C.S. will always show you the reason of the last shut down. It will also give you a code 
and the engine parameters so you know why it has happened. Here are the codes and what 
they  refer  so  it’s  important  that  in  an  unwanted  shut  down,  note  the  given  parameters  and 
codes to see what has happened before restarting the turbine. These codes will be reset. 

 

USER OFF

 

The I.C.S. has received the shut down command from the receiver 

 

RX PWR

 

The I.C.S. lost power from the receiver 

 

FAILSAFE

 

The I.C.S. received the failsafe command from the receiver 

 

FLAME OUT

  The I.C.S. lost the temperature reading from the thermocouple 

 

SPEEDLOW

  The I.C.S. has shut the turbine down due to the fact the RPM has fallen 

below a certain RPM 

 

AUTOMODE

  The I.C.S. has received a start command after initiated an auto start 

IMPORTANT PARAMETERS - In each of the above codes also these important parameters 
will be displayed: 

 

TEMPERATURE 

 

RPM 

 

PUMP POWER 

The I.C.S. stores at last 10 min run time parameters to help in diagnosing any issues.
