fitting cable to the green connector. Some software versions in
old system panels (supplied before May 2004) could conflict with
the software in the DDC and an update of the software of the
system panel could be necessary. When this is the case consult to
the WhisperPower service department for advice.
When using the factory settings, installation is very simple: just
plug the remote cable into the remote and the generator is ready
to use. Refer to fig. 14.

Acoustic alarm or warning lamp
One can connect an external max.150 mA relay to generate an
acoustic warning or applying a warning lamp etc. Be aware of po-
larity as some relays has a diode inside and should be connected
plus to plus and minus to minus as indicated. Refer to fig. 14.
Connection for emergency stop / fire alarm switch
To connect an emergency stop button or to stop the generator
automatically in case of a fire alarm, you can use the bypass con-
nection between fastons J7 and J18 on the backside of the local
control panel. See fig. 15. To do so, remove this bypass connec-
tion and then replace it by an emergency switch or a potential
free fire alarm switch with normally closed contacts

Automatic start/stop
WhisperPower cannot be held responsible for
damage caused by the unattended running
generator using the auto- start/stop mode or
interval mode.
Using the auto-start/stop (interval) mode the generator can
start unexpectedly. When working on the electrical system, the
3 Amp fuse must be removed from the control panel and the
battery plus cable must be removed from the battery.
The WhisperPower Digital Diesel Control system offers several
options for automatic starting and stopping.
Access to this menu and other menus could be blocked. For
blocking and setting up this options refer to the APPENDIX of the
DDC user’s manual.
One of these options is to monitor a second battery (not being
the starter battery) to start the generator automatically when the
voltage of this battery drops below a certain setting.
Other names for this second battery are “auxiliary battery”,
“service battery”, ”users battery” or “consumers battery”. We
will refer to this battery as “the second battery” (BAT2). In some
menus the starter battery could be indicated as “the first battery”
(BAT1).
A sense wire to monitor the second battery should be connected
(attention polarity!) to the connector on the back of the remote
panel. Refer to fig. 14. The sense wires must be connected direct-
ly on the second battery before a main switch and be protected
by a 3 Amps fuse. (Monitoring the generator starter battery does
not require an extra sense connection)
Settings
When one want to apply other settings than the factory settings
refer to the DDC user’s manual, especially to the APPENDIX.
For starting, the WhisperPower requires a battery with a capacity
of M-SQ15: 55 Ah, M-SQ18: 80 Ah. The generating set can be
connected with the main engine battery or have its own battery.
We strongly recommend the use of a separate battery for the
generating set and to keep the wiring system for the propulsion
engine and the domestic DC supply system completely separate
and individually connected to separate batteries.
