INFORMATION PAGE The LCD display normally indicates the status of the generator such as ‘GENERATOR AT REST’, ‘PRE-HEATING’,‘GENERATOR AVAILABLE’, etc. This is the default display and is always automatically returned to after a pre-set period of operator inactivity. ALARM PAGE The LCD also displays the exact nature of any alarm condition which have occurred such as ‘SHUTDOWN LOW OIL PRESSURE’. This allows very specific alarm conditions to be brought to the operators’ attention. Refer to the ‘Protections’ section of this manual for details of how to interact with the alarm page. ENGINE INSTRUMENTS PAGE The LCD displays the various engine parameters such as ‘ENGINE SPEED’, ‘OIL PRESSURE’, ‘HOURS RUN’, etc.

GENERATOR INSTRUMENT PAGE The LCD displays the various generator output values such as ‘GENERATOR VOLTAGE’, ‘GENERATOR CURRENT’, etc. If the enhanced instrumentation option is fitted the LCD will also display the values of  ‘GENERATOR KW’, ‘GENERATOR pF’, ‘GENERATOR KVAr’, etc. EVENT LOG PAGE In the event of a shutdown alarm occurring the triggering alarm will be recorded in the Event Log Memory. The Memory will record the last 25 such shutdowns. Subsequent alarms will then over-write the oldest previous alarm. This feature allows service engineers arriving on site a detailed look at the recent history of the gen-set or plant.

Detail Initial stage of Synchronising display will only show the difference between the Bus Supply and the Generator Output. Here the display is showing a frequency mis-match of +2.9Hz - The gen-set frequency is too high and should be reduced (indicated by the arrow). The voltage is +0.2 volts high, but is within the limits set for synchronising. Once the difference between the Bus supply and the Generator output has been reduced the ‘Synchroscope’ display will become active. The moving bar will roll from left to right or right to left depending on the mis-match between the bus supply and the generator output. The area in the centre of the scope indicates the set limits for synchronising to occur. Synchronising will only occur when both the Frequency and the voltage differences are within acceptable limits - Indicated by ‘Tick’ marks on the top of the display. Then the moving bar display will show the phase difference. The engine speed should be adjusted until the moving bar enters the centre of the scope. Once the bus and the generator are synchronised the moving bar will be in the centre of the scope and the bar will be ‘locked’ into the synchronising window. While the bar is ‘locked’ the module will initiate a breaker close to load the generator onto the bus. Should synchronism be broken the moving bar will pass out of the synchronising window and the ‘locked’ indication will clear.

DSE Model 550 Automatic Start Engine Management and Instrumentation System Operators Manual 

3.3 CONTROL PUSH-BUTTONS STOP/RESET This push-button places the module into it’s Stop/reset mode. This will clear any alarm conditions for which the triggering criteria have been removed. If the engine is running and this push-button is operated, the module will automatically instruct the change-over device to un-load the generator (‘ Load transfer ’ becomes in-active (if used)). The fuel supply will be removed and engine will be brought to a standstill. Should a remote start signal be present while operating in the mode, a remote start will not occur.

O

MANUAL This push-button is used to allow manual control of the generator functions. Entering this mode from any other mode will initially not cause any change of operating state, but allows further push-buttons to be used to control the generator operation. For example once in Manual mode it is possible to manually start the engine by using the ‘START’ pushbutton. If the engine is running off-load in the Manual mode and a remote start signal becomes present, the module will automatically instruct the change-over device to place the generator on load (‘ Load  transfer ’ becomes active (if used)). Should the remote start signal then be removed the generator will remain on load until either the ‘STOP/RESET’ or ‘AUTO’ push-buttons are operated. START This push-button is used to manually start the engine. The module must first be placed in the ‘MANUAL’ mode of operation. The ‘START’ button should then be operated. The engine will then automatically attempt to start. Should it fail on the first attempt it will re-try until either the engine fires or the pre-set number of attempts have been made. To stop the engine the ‘STOP/RESET’ button should be operated. It is also possible to configure the modules such that the start push-button must be held to maintain engine cranking.

AUTO This push-button places the module into it’s  ‘Automatic’ mode. This mode allows the module to control the function of the generator automatically. The module will monitor the remote start input and once a start condition is signalled the set will be automatically started and placed on load (‘ Load transfer ’ becomes active (if used)). If the starting signal is removed the module will automatically transfer the load from the generator and shut the set down observing the stop delay timer  and cooling timer  as necessary. The module will then await the next start event. For further details please see the more detailed description of ‘Auto Operation’ earlier in this manual. ALARM MUTE This push-button is used to silence the internal alarm sounder and also any external sounder devices fed from the audible alarm output. Any further alarm conditions will re-active the sounder. Once the alarm has been muted and investigated it may then be cleared. Refer to the ‘Protections’ section of this manual for details. When the Alarm Mute is operated a Lamp test function will also will be implemented and all LED indicators will be illuminated.

COMMISSIONING

6.1 PRE-COMMISSIONING Before the system is started, it is recommended that the following checks are made:6.1. The unit is adequately cooled and all the wiring to the module is of a standard and rating compatible with the system. 6.2. The unit DC supply is fused and connected to the battery and that it is of the correct polarity. 6.3. The Emergency Stop input is wired to an external normally closed switch connected to DC positive.

6.1. To check the start cycle operation take appropriate measures to prevent the engine from starting (disable the operation of the fuel solenoid). After a visual inspection to ensure it is safe to proceed, connect the battery supply. Press the “MANUAL” pushbutton, then press the ‘START’ pushbutton for a short time. The unit start sequence will commence. 6.2. The starter will engage and operate for the pre-set crank period. After the starter motor has attempted to start the engine for the pre-set number of attempts the LCD will display ‘Shutdown Failed to start ’. Press the STOP/RESET pushbutton to reset the unit. 6.3. Restore the engine to operational status (reconnect the fuel solenoid), again select “MANUAL” and operate the ‘START’ pushbutton, this time the engine should start and the starter motor should disengage automatically. If not then check that the engine is fully operational (fuel available, etc.) and that the fuel solenoid is operating. The engine should now run up to operating speed. If not, and an alarm is present, check the alarm condition for validity, then check input wiring. The engine should continue to run for an indefinite period. It will be possible at this time to view the engine and alternator parameters - refer to the ‘Description of Controls’ section of this manual. 6.4. Select “AUTO” on the front panel, the engine will run for the pre-set cooling down period, then stop. The generator should stay in the standby mode. If not check that there is not a signal present on the Remote Start input. 6.5. Initiate an automatic start by supplying the remote start signal. The start sequence will commence and the engine will run up to operational speed. Once the generator is available a load transfer will take place, the Generator will accept the load. If not, check the wiring to the Generator Contactor Coil (if used). Check the Warming timer has timed out. 6.6. Remove the remote start signal, the return sequence will start. After the pre-set time period, the load will be removed from the generator. The generator will then run for the pre-set cooling down period, then shutdown into it’s standby mode. 6.7. If despite repeated checking of the connections between the 550 and the customer’s system, satisfactory operation cannot be achieved, then the customer is requested to contact the factory for further advice on:-

FAULT FINDING SYMPTOM

Unit is inoperative

POSSIBLE REMEDY

Engine runs but generator will not take load

Check the battery and wiring to the unit. Check the DC supply. Check the DC fuse. Check DC supply voltage is not above 35 Volts or below 9 Volts. Check the operating temperature is not above 70 °C. Check the DC fuse. If an Emergency Stop Switch is not fitted, ensure that a positive is connected to the Emergency Stop input. Check emergency stop switch is functioning correctly. Check Wiring is not open circuit. Ensure that Magnetic pick-up screen is only connected at one end, if connected at both ends this enables the screen to act as an aerial and will pick up random voltages. Check engine oil pressure. Check oil pressure switch/sender and wiring. Check configured polarity (if applicable) is correct (i.e. Normally Open or Normally Closed) or that sender is compatible with the 550 Module. Check engine temperature. Check switch/sender and wiring. Check configured polarity (if applicable) is correct (i.e. Normally Open or Normally Closed) or that sender is compatible with the 550 Module. Check relevant switch and wiring of fault indicated on LCD display. Check configuration of input. Check relevant switch and wiring of fault indicated on LCD display. Check configuration of input. Check wiring of fuel solenoid. Check fuel. Check battery supply. Check battery supply is present on the Fuel output of the module. Check the speed sensing signal is present on the 550 inputs. Refer to engine manual. Check that there is no signal present on the “Remote Start” input. Check configured polarity is correct. Check Start Delay timer has timed out. If remote start fault, check signal is on “Remote Start” input. Confirm input is configured to be used as “Remote Start”. Check wiring to engine heater plugs. Check battery supply. Check battery supply is present on the Pre-heat output of module. Check pre-heat has been selected in your configuration. Check wiring to starter solenoid. Check battery supply. Check battery supply is present on the Starter output of module. Ensure that the Emergency Stop input is at +Ve. Check Warm up timer has timed out. Ensure generator load inhibit signal is not present on the module inputs.

12.4 55X DEAD BUS OPERATION Modules fitted with Check sync or auto sync option only  It is frequently required that two or more generators should start at the same time, and that the first one to reach stabilised running conditions should connect to the dead bus leaving the remainder to synchronise onto the bus, as they become available. In this scenario, two or even more generators can reach stabilised running conditions at the same moment in time and therefore some form of ‘election’ process is required to ensure that generators do not attempt to close onto the dead bus simultaneously. Failure to do this will almost certainly result in out-of-phase paralleling at some time in the lifetime of the installation. The problem arises from the fact that it is impossible to predict just when each of the generators’ ‘ready for load’ signal will occur and therefore two or more could occur at exactly the same time. Under these circumstance, applying the ‘ready for load’ signal directly to the contactor or breaker is not satisfactory since both contactors will attempt to close together, and using N/C interlock contacts and dead bus sensing does not resolve this problem. There may not be a problem in the case of a two set system where both sets are always required on the bus. In this case the ‘bus’ input to the synchroniser can be derived from the generator side of the other set’s contactor, then at the point of synchronism, both contactors can be closed onto the dead bus at the same time. However, this approach is not possible for more than two sets, and in addition, the application may require that the first available set be connected to the bus in the shortest possible time without waiting for the successful completion of the synchronising process. The following figure shows one of the solutions using external electrically interlocked interposing relays in conjunction with the 550 unit having the check synchronising option. If the ‘close request’ outputs appear simultaneously, then both interposing relays Ra/2 & Rb/2 will start to close but because of their interlock contacts Ra2 & Rb2, one relay will become closed and the other will be locked out. This will occur very quickly and before contacts Ra1 or Rb1 close. Thus only one of the contacts Ra1 or Rb1 closes and only one of the contactor coils becomes energised by this route. When one of the contactor auxiliary contacts Ma1 or Mb1 closes it will cause a closing command to appears at terminal 36 and the close request signal at terminal 40 will disappear. If neither the auxiliary contacts Ma1 or Mb1 close within 1.5 seconds, then this will indicate that there is an external fault, perhaps through contact Ra1 or Rb1 or with the contactor its-self. In this case the close request output at terminal 40 will disappear allowing another set the chance of becoming first on the bus.  As soon as one of the generators has connected to the bus in the above manner, so others will synchronise to the bus, and when in synchronism a closing command will appear at their respective terminal 36. This signal will remain for as long as the generator is to remain on load. This scheme can be extended to cover a number of parallel gen-sets.

Modules fitted with Load share option only When using a module fitted with the load share option, then the modules must be connected together and ‘talking’ correctly on the Mutli-set Communications Link. Once the link is established then the modules will perform the task of getting the first set on the bus themselves without the need for the additional circuit shown above. Simply connect the contactor or breaker to the close generator output (normally 5) and then the modules will ensure that only one set is allowed on the dead bus. Once the set is available it will transmit a message onto the MSC link to say that it can close onto the dead bus, if there is no objection from the other units it will then go ahead and close. Should another gen-set report that it is also ready to go, then the modules will vote as to who going to actually close. Once the decision has been made to close onto the bus all other sets will be instructed over the MSC link that the bus is live and that they must synchronise first before closing. This system ensures that only one module can close onto the dead bus at once and the sets on the MSC are aware of each others actions. Once the first set is on the bus, and then the others synchronise and close, normal load sharing and s equencing will then take place, regardless of who was first on the bus.

12.3 USING THE 55X MODULE WITH ACB’S The standard configuration allows the 55x module to be connected to contactors and the like. However, it may be required to connect the to 55x module to breakers such as ACB’s, etc. If so the following connection scheme is recommended as considered a ‘fail-safe’ method.

12.4 OUTPUT EXPANSION There are several methods of output expansion available for the 55x module:-

12.4.1 RELAY OUTPUT EXPANSION (157)  An expansion module is available, which connects to the configuration socket, and enables the 55x to use eight additional relays on the 157 relay module, providing Volt-free contacts for customer connection. A maximum of 2 off 157 relays modules can be connected, there are identified as ‘A’ and ‘B’ and give a total of 16 extra relay outputs.

Refer to technical data sheet on the 157 relay module for further details.

12.4.2 LED OUTPUT EXPANSION (548)  An expansion module is available, which connects to the configuration socket, and enables the 55x to use eight additional LED’s on the 548 module, providing remote LED’s indication up to 50 metres away. A maximum of 2 off 548 LED modules can be connected, there are identified as ‘A’ and ‘B’ and give a total of 16 extra LED outputs.

Refer to technical data sheet on the 548 LED module for further details. It is possible to use a mix of 157 and 548 modules to give both relay and LED expansion if  required (Please refer to our Technical Support department for details.).

12.5 INPUT EXPANSION It is possible to increase the number of monitored inputs available by utilising a DSE 54x Protection Expansion/Annunciator. Please refer to our Technical department for details.
