AUTOMATIC CONTROL PANELS
Automatic control module provides integrated generator set control, protection, metering and automatic load transfer. If a fault is detected, the engine will automatically shutdown and the failure will be indicated by the LCD display and alarm horn. The unit detects failure of any phase in the mains supply and is able to start the generator and transfer the load. When the mains supply is restored within the pre-set limits, the load is transferred back to the mians supply and the generator is shutdown in a controlled manner. The unit offers manuel, fully automatic and test mode which allows the generator to be run without taking the load. Mode of the operation can be changed at any time without affecting the operation status of the generator or load connection

CONTROL MODULE CONFIGURATION WITH SOFTWARE

The control modules configuration software allows the modules to be connected to a PC.

Once connected the various operating parameters within the module can be viewed or edited as required by the engineer. This software allows easy controlled access to these values and also has diagnostic monitoring facilities.


The Configuration interface should only be used by competent, qualified personnel, as changes to the operation of the module may have safety implications on the panel / generating set to which it is fitted. Access to critical operational sequences and settings for use by qualified engineers, are barred by a PC software security code. Timers are protected by a separate code allowing operator changes to be made.




The information contained in this manual should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the appropriate module documentation. The operation of the module is detailed in its own relevant manual.

For legacy support, an RS232 version is also available with an adapter cable to allow connection to the 9 pin D type RS232 connectors as required.
