TP-6591 10/13 16 Section 2 Operation
2.6.2 Starting the Generator Set
The following procedures describe the actions required
to start the generator set.
Explosion.
Gasoline vapors can cause
explosion and severe injury or
death.
Before starting the generator set,
operate the blower 4 minutes and
check the engine compartment for
gasoline vapors.
WARNING
Step Action
1 Operate the blower.
Operate the blower 4 minutes and check the engine
compartment for gasoline vapors.
NOTE:
Many boat manufacturers recommend
continuous blower operation while the generator set
is operating. Read the vessel’s owner’s manual for
further information.
2 Open the fuel shut-off valve.
Open the manual fuel shut-off valve, if equipped.
3 Start the generator set.
Place the generator set master switch to the RUN
position.
Note: Opening seacock. Before starting the generator
set, open the seacock to allow cooling water
passage. Failure to do so could damage the
seawater pump impeller and cause serious
engine overheating damage.
Note: Transfer switch. Check that the marine
ship-to-shore transfer switch, if equipped, is in
the ship position.
Note: Close seacock if water enters the exhaust
system. If water enters the exhaust system,
close the seacock and drain the water from the
exhaust system at the silencer’s drain plug before
attempting to start the generator set. A
water-filled exhaust hose and silencer may
hinder generator starting and cause seawater
entry into the engine cylinders through the
exhaust valves. Water ingested into the engine
may cause major engine damage that the Kohler
Co. warranty does not cover. If excessive
cranking is a chronic problem, have the unit,
including the exhaust system, serviced by an
authorized Kohler
r
distributor/dealer.
The controller attempts to start the generator set three
times. If the generator set does not start in three
attempts, the system shuts down on an overcrank fault.
Local Starting.
1. Press the Power Button to turn the controller on.
The LED Status Indicator appears green and
begins flashing.
2. Press the Start/Stop Button to start the generator
set. The Advanced Digital Control II attempts to
start the generator set in three crank cycles (crank
cycle time is pre-programmed).
Remote Starting.
A remote start/stop switch (connected to P21 connector,
leads 3 and 4) or a remote digital gauge (connected to
P21 connector, pins 1, 2, and 5 via CAN) can be
connected to the customer interface connection. See
the wiring diagram in Section 5.
Note: A remote start/stop switch (connected to P21
connector, leads 3 and 4) is not available when
configured for SmartCraft
t
1.
Press the Power Button to turn the controller on.
Consult the instruction sheet supplied with the remote
start/stop switch or remote digital gauge for starting
instructions.
Note: The ADC II allows three 7-second crank cycle
attempts before the overcrank shutdown occurs.
Remote communications require an active
(powered-up) controller. Be advised that when the
generator is not running, the Advanced Digital Control II
enters a low-power state with an average current drain
of approximately 100 uA.
The ADC II will power down (0 mA draw) after 48 hours
of inactivity. Press the start switch/button (once for the
remote start/stop switch or twice for the remote digital
gauge) to “wake up” the ADC II and start the generator
set.
