vIMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS This manual containsimportant instructions that should be followed duringinstallation and maintenance of the generator set andbatteries.

Before operating the generator set (genset), read theOperators Manual and become familiar with it and theequipment. Safe and efficient operation can beachieved only if the equipment is properly operatedand maintained. Many accidents are caused by failureto follow fundamental rules and precautions.

The following symbols, found throughout this manual,alert you to potentially dangerous conditions to the oper-ator, service personnel, or the equipment.

This symbol warns of immediatehazards which will result in severe personal in-jury or death.

WARNING This symbol refers to a hazard or un-safe practice which can result in severe person-al injury or death.

CAUTION This symbol refers to a hazard or un-safe practice which can result in personal injuryor product or property damage.

FUEL AND FUMES ARE FLAMMABLE

Fire, explosion, and personal injury or death can resultfrom improper practices.

DO NOT fill fuel tanks while engine is running, un-less tanks are outside the engine compartment.Fuel contact with hot engine or exhaust is a potentialfire hazard.

DO NOT permit any flame, cigarette, pilot light,spark, arcing equipment, or other ignition sourcenear the generator set or fuel tank.

Fuel lines must be adequately secured and free ofleaks. Fuel connection at the engine should bemade with an approved flexible line. Do not use zinccoated or copper fuel lines with diesel fuel.

Be sure all fuel supplies have a positive shutoffvalve.

Be sure battery area has been well-ventilated priorto servicing near it. Lead-acid batteries emit a highlyexplosive hydrogen gas that can be ignited by arc-ing, sparking, smoking, etc.

EXHAUST GASES ARE DEADLY

Provide an adequate exhaust system to properlyexpel discharged gases away from enclosed orsheltered areas and areas where individuals arelikely to congregate. Visually and audibly inspectthe exhaust daily for leaks per the maintenanceschedule. Make sure that exhaust manifolds are se-cured and not warped. Do not use exhaust gases toheat a compartment.

Be sure the unit is well ventilated. Engine exhaust and some of its constituents are

known to the state of California to cause cancer,birth defects, and other reproductive harm.

MOVING PARTS CAN CAUSE SEVEREPERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH

Keep your hands, clothing, and jewelry away frommoving parts.

Before starting work on the generator set, discon-nect battery charger from its AC source, then dis-connect starting batteries, negative () cable first.This will prevent accidental starting.

Make sure that fasteners on the generator set aresecure. Tighten supports and clamps, keep guardsin position over fans, drive belts, etc.

Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry in the vicinity ofmoving parts, or while working on electrical equip-ment. Loose clothing and jewelry can becomecaught in moving parts.

If adjustment must be made while the unit is run-ning, use extreme caution around hot manifolds,moving parts, etc.

DO NOT OPERATE IN FLAMMABLE ANDEXPLOSIVE ENVIRONMENTS

Flammable vapor can cause an engine to overspeed andbecome difficult to stop, resulting in possible fire, explo-sion, severe personal injury and death. Do not operate agenset where a flammable vapor environment can becreated by fuel spill, leak, etc., unless the genset isequipped with an automatic safety device to block the airintake and stop the engine. The owners and operators ofthe genset are solely responsible for operating the gen-set safely. Contact your authorized Cummins PowerGeneration distributor for more information.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSESEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH

Remove electric power before removing protectiveshields or touching electrical equipment. Use rub-ber insulative mats placed on dry wood platformsover floors that are metal or concrete when aroundelectrical equipment. Do not wear damp clothing(particularly wet shoes) or allow skin surface to bedamp when handling electrical equipment. Do notwear jewelry. Jewelry can short out electrical con-tacts and cause shock or burning.

Use extreme caution when working on electricalcomponents. High voltages can cause injury ordeath. DO NOT tamper with interlocks.

Follow all applicable state and local electricalcodes. Have all electrical installations performed bya qualified licensed electrician. Tag and lock openswitches to avoid accidental closure.

DO NOT CONNECT GENERATOR SET DIRECT-LY TO ANY BUILDING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.Hazardous voltages can flow from the generator setinto the utility line. This creates a potential for elec-trocution or property damage. Connect onlythrough an approved isolation switch or an ap-proved paralleling device.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Coolants under pressure have a higher boiling pointthan water. DO NOT open a radiator or heat ex-changer pressure cap while the engine is running.To prevent severe scalding, let engine cool downbefore removing coolant pressure cap. Turn capslowly, and do not open it fully until the pressure hasbeen relieved.

Used engine oils have been identified by some stateor federal agencies as causing cancer or reproduc-tive toxicity. When checking or changing engine oil,take care not to ingest, breathe the fumes, or con-tact used oil.

Keep multi-class ABC fire extinguishers handy.Class A fires involve ordinary combustible materialssuch as wood and cloth; Class B fires, combustibleand flammable liquid fuels and gaseous fuels; ClassC fires, live electrical equipment. (ref. NFPA No. 10).

Make sure that rags or combustible material are notleft on or near the generator set.

Make sure generator set is mounted in a manner toprevent combustible materials from accumulatingunder or near the unit.

Remove all unnecessary grease and oil from theunit. Accumulated grease and oil can cause over-heating and engine damage which present a poten-tial fire hazard.

Keep the generator set and the surrounding areaclean and free from obstructions. Remove any de-bris from the set and keep the floor clean and dry.

Do not work on this equipment when mentally orphysically fatigued, or after consuming any alcoholor drug that makes the operation of equipment un-safe.

Substances in exhaust gases have been identifiedby some state or federal agencies as causing can-cer or reproductive toxicity. Take care not to breathor ingest or come into contact with exhaust gases.

Do not store any flammable liquids, such as fuel,cleaners, oil, etc., near the generator set. A fire orexplosion could result.

Wear hearing protection when near an operatinggenerator set.

To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hotmetal parts such as radiator system, turbo chargersystem and exhaust system.

2. Control Operation

GENERAL

The following describes the function and operationof the PowerCommand Control 3200 (PCC). All in-dicators, control switches/buttons and graphicaldisplay are located on the face of the control panelas illustrated in Figure 2-1.

Normally, generator set configuration options areset at the factory. When a new control is installed ona generator set or when parts are replaced, the con-trol must be configured for that generator set. Setupand calibration procedures are described in Sec-tion 3.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

When the PowerCommand control is in the AUTOmode, it will cause the generator set to start on re-ceiving a signal from a remote device. The controlwill initiate a starter cranking signal and verify thatthe engine is rotating. The control will provide suffi-cient fuel to the engine to accelerate to start discon-nect speed. On reaching that speed, the control willramp the generator set to idle (warm-up) or ratedspeed and voltage.

On reaching rated speed and voltage, the controlchecks the system bus voltage. If no bus voltage is

present, it will wait for a pulse from a remote MasterFirst Start Sensor. On receiving that pulse, the con-trol will signal the paralleling breaker to close.

If bus voltage is present, the control will check forproper phase rotation, adjust the generator set tothe bus voltage and frequency level, and then syn-chronize the generator set to the system bus. Whena synchronous condition is achieved, the control willsend a signal to close the paralleling breaker.

When the paralleling breaker is closed, the genera-tor set will assume its proportional share of the totalload on the system bus.

CONTROL PANEL POWER ON/OFFMODES

The power on/off modes of the control panel and op-erating software are Power On, Screen Saver andSleep/Awake.

Power On Mode: In this mode, power is continu-ously supplied to the control panel. The controlsoperating software and control panel LEDs/graphi-cal display will remain active until the Screen Savermode is activated.

2-2

Screen Saver Mode: Power to the graphical dis-play will be removed after 10 minutes (generator setnot running or running). The 10 minute timer resetsand begins after each control panel action (any but-ton or switch selection) or signal received by the op-erating software. The bottom LEDs of the AnalogAC Metering Panel (bar graphs) may remain on dur-ing Screen Saver mode, indicating that the operat-ing software is active (Awake mode).

When a Warning signal is sensed by the PCC (forexample, low coolant temp), the control will displaythe warning message. The control will remain activeuntil the Fault Acknowledge button is pressed toclear the warning message and start the 10 minutetimer.

Sleep/Awake Mode: In the Sleep mode, the con-trols operating software is inactive and the LEDsand the graphical display on the control panel are alloff. Sleep mode is a feature that is used to reducebattery power consumption when the control is notbeing used.

In Off mode, Sleep mode is activated when thereare no unacknowledged faults and Screen Savermode is active.

In Auto mode, Sleep mode can be enabled or dis-abled. When shipped from the factory, it is disabled.You can enable Sleep mode by making thesechanges:

Use InPower service tool to set Auto Sleep En-able to Sleep in Auto.

Set switch S1 on the Genset/Paralleling Cardto Sleep/Off. This switch is located next to con-nector J8 and relay K9.

If these conditions are not met, Sleep mode is dis-abled in Auto mode.

The graphical display can enter Screen Saver modeeven if Sleep mode is disabled.

If Sleep mode is enabled in Auto mode, Sleep modeis activated when there are no unacknowledgedfaults and Screen Saver mode is active.

The operating software is initialized and the controlpanel LEDs and graphical display are turned on inresponse to one of the following:

Moving/pressing any control panel switch/but-ton. (If Sleep mode is enabled in Auto mode,the control will remain asleep if Sleep modewas previously active in Off mode.)

Receiving a remote start input signal (genera-tor set in Auto mode)

Receiving an active DCD signal on the RS-232port.

Modem RI latch becoming active. Digital display waking up. Lonworks (backplane) wakeup becoming ac-

tive.

Customer fault 2 or 3 only (shutdown or warn-ing indicator is on).

Dial Out process becoming active.To activate the control and view the menu displaywithout starting the generator set, press any buttonon the control panel.

FIGURE 2-1. CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY (FULL-FEATURED)

2-4

CONTROL PANEL ASSEMBLY

The control panel assembly (Figure 2-1) consist oftwo panels, the Operator Panel and the Switch Pan-el.

Dependent on site requirements, the Operator Pan-el is either mounted on the control panel assembly(full-featured) as shown in Figure 2-1 or containedin a separate enclosure and mounted remotely ofthe control panel assembly.

The function of several buttons on the control panelwill vary dependent on the location of the controlpanel (remote or local of the control panel assem-bly). If the function differs, it is noted as either re-mote or local operator panel in the button de-scription.

Operator Panel

The operator panel contains the following compo-nents:

Analog AC Metering Panel: This panel simulta-neously displays 3-phase line to line AC volts andcurrent, kW, power factor and frequency.

The meter panel is composed of a series of LEDs,that are configured in bar graphs for each function.The LEDs are color coded, with green indicatingnormal range values, amber for warning levels andred for shutdown conditions.

Scales for each function are in % of nominal values.Resolution is 1% for values close to nominal, and in-creases at values further from nominal.

Graphical Display: The graphical display is capa-ble of displaying up to 9-lines of data with approxi-mately 27 characters per line. The display is used toview the menus of the menu-driven operating sys-tem.

The top three lines of the graphical display containthe following control information in the order de-scribed:

State Line modes of operation, such asStopped, Time Delay To Start, Warm Up AtIdle, etc. (see Figure 2-2), and paralleling op-erations, such as Standby, Dead BUS Close,Synchronize, Load Share and Load Govern.

Action Line system actions, such as Warning,Derate, Shutdown Cool-down and Shutdown,and fault codes.

Description Line Fault code messages.Display Menu Selection Buttons: Six momentarybuttonsthree on each side of the graphical dis-play windoware used to navigate through the sys-tem control menus and to adjust generator set pa-rameters. The button is active when the messageadjacent to the button is highlighted (displayed in in-verse video).

2-5

Switch Panel

The switch panel contains the following compo-nents:

Emergency Stop Button: Push the button in foremergency shutdown of the engine. If the engine isnot running, pushing the button in will prevent thestarting of the engine, regardless of the start signalsource (local or remote).

To reset:1. Pull the button out.2. Move the 0/Manual/Auto switch to 0. 3. Press the front panel Fault Acknowledge

button.4. Select Manual or Auto, as required.

Remote Start Indicator: This green lamp is litwhenever the control is receiving a remote run sig-nal. When flashing, it indicates a load demand stopmode.

Not in Auto Indicator: This red lamp flashes con-tinuously when the 0/Manual/Auto switch is not inthe Auto position. (If in Auto position and lamp isflashing, service is required.)

Shutdown Status Indicator: This red lamp is litwhenever the control detects a shutdown condition.The generator set can not be started when this lampis on. After the condition is corrected, shutdown in-dicators can be reset by turning the 0/Manual/Autoswitch to the 0 position, and pressing the Fault Ac-knowledge button.

Dependent upon the specific fault that occurs, theengine may or may not shut down immediately. Afault that could cause engine damage, causes animmediate engine shutdown (bypasses enginecool-down sequence). All other faults would allowthe engine to run during the cool-down sequencebefore engine shutdown. In this case, the ShutdownStatus Indicator blinks during the cooldown period.

Warning Status Indicator: This yellow lamp is litwhenever the control detects a warning condition.After the condition is corrected, warning indicatorscan be reset by pressing the Fault Acknowledgebutton. (It is not necessary to stop the generator setif the fault becomes inactive during genset opera-tion.)

Fault Acknowledge: Press this button to acknowl-edge warning and shutdown messages after thefault has been corrected.

To acknowledge a Warning message, the 0/Manu-al/Auto switch can be in any position. (It is not nec-essary to stop the generator set to acknowledge aninactive Warning condition.) To acknowledge ashutdown message with this button, the 0/Manual/Auto switch must be in the 0 (Off) position.

This button is also used to blink a fault code if theShutdown or Warning Status Indicator is lit. (Thisfunction is used when the control does not contain agraphical display.) Refer to Reading Fault Codes inthis section, which describes how to use this buttonfor interpreting fault codes.

Panel Lamp/Lamp Test Button: Press this buttonto turn on or off the panel lamp. Press and holddown this button for three seconds or more to turnall control panel LEDs on to make sure all lamps illu-minate. The illumination will shut off after releasingthe button.

Exercise Button: Press this button to initiate a pre-programmed exercise sequence. To start the exer-cise sequence, press and hold down the Exercisebutton and move the O/Manual/Auto switch fromAuto to Manual and back to Auto or from Manual toAuto.

Manual Run/Stop Button: This button starts andstops the set locally and will bypass Time Delay toStart and Stop sequences. The 0/Manual/Autoswitch must be in the Manual position to enable thisbutton.

0/Manual/Auto Switch: Manual position enablesthe use of the switch panel Manual Run/Stop but-ton.

Auto position enables start/stop control of the en-gine from a remote location. (Disables the use of theswitch panel Manual Run/Stop button.)

0 (Off) position prevents the starting of the set (localor remote). If moved to 0 during set operation, willcause an immediate engine shutdown (bypassescool-down timers). This hot shutdown should beavoided, if possible, to help prolong the life of theengine. Hot shutdowns are logged by the systemsoftware.

2-6

READING FAULT CODES

If the genset contains the optional graphical displayand a fault occurs, the fault code/message will bedisplayed in the display Description Line (Figure2-2). If the control does not contain the graphicaldisplay, the fault code is read from the Warning andShutdown status indicators.

Reading Fault codes Using Warning/ShutdownIndicators: If the Warning or Shutdown status indi-cator is lit, press and hold the Fault Acknowledgebutton and release after one second or more. Afterone second, the Shutdown lamp will begin to blinkthe active fault code(s) as follows.

The Warning lamp is used to indicate the start of anew code. The Warning lamp will remain on for 2seconds, followed by the Shutdown lamp blinkingthe fault code. This sequence occurs three times foreach code. The fourth flash of the Warning lamp in-dicates the beginning of the second fault code.

There are distinct pauses between repetitions of thecode blink transmissions of the Shutdown lamp.

A three digit fault code is indicated by three sets ofblinks separated by a two second pause. The firstset corresponds to the hundreds position, the sec-ond to the tens position and the third to the ones dig-it. Example for Code No. 213:

Shutdown LED:blink-blink-pause-blink-pause-blink-blink-blink

Warning LED:blink (2 seconds)

The light will display the fault codes (active or inac-tive) in succession, starting with the most recent. Upto 32 (unacknowledged) fault codes can be storedin control panel memory.

To return the control to the most recent fault code,press and release the Fault Acknowledge button(less than one second) and repeat procedure.

When the fault code is acknowledged and cor-rected, the recorded fault will be deleted from theLED fault log, but will remain in a data log that main-tains a fault code history. (The InPower service toolis required to view this data log.)

FAULT HISTORY: The control maintains a data logof all fault conditions as they occur, and time stampsthem with the control and engine operating hours.

Up to 32 (unacknowledged) fault codes can bestored in control panel memory. After the fault is ac-knowledged and corrected, the recorded fault willbe deleted from the control panel memory, but willremain in a data log that maintains a fault code his-tory. (The InPower service tool is required to viewthis data log.)

The Fault History display line: 1 of 24 indicates that24 faults are recorded and that the most recent fault(1) detected by the controller is displayed.

The Occurrences display line: In this example, 5 in-dicates that this is the fifth occurrence of this fault.(The InPower service tool is required to review thelast four faults of this code.)

The Occurrences number is incremented for eachnew occurrence of the same fault. The controllermust detect that the original sensed fault is cor-rected before it will increment the occurrence num-ber for that fault.

For example, when a Low Oil Pressure fault is de-tected, the controller will increment the Occurrencesnumber by 1. This fault will remain active until thefault is acknowledged and the controller detects thatthe fault is corrected. An active fault will prevent thecontroller from incrementing the Occurrences num-ber each time the engine is started. When the con-troller detects that the oil pressure is normal the faultwill become inactive, allowing the occurrences num-ber to be incremented for the next detected Low OilPressurefault.

POWER TRANSFER MAIN/SUBMENUS

If you press the POWER TRANS button in MenuA, the Power Transfer main menu will appear (Fig-ure 2-10). The Power Transfer Control (PTC) fea-ture must be installed to display this menu.

The PTC feature enables the PCC to monitor theutility voltage (mains) and frequency for failure andcontrol the opening and closing of the contacts (cir-cuit breakers) for the utility (S1) and the genset(S2).

If utility fails, the control will initiate the genset start-ing sequence, open S1 and close S2 to the load.When utility returns, the load is retransferred to theutility (S1 closes/S2 opens) and the control initiatesthe genset shutdown sequence.

The symbol displayed in the middle of the Pow-er Transfer main menu indicates which breaker(utility or genset) is closed/opened to the load. Thesymbol presently shown indicates that the utilitybreaker is closed and supplying power to the load.

The Power Transfer main menu also indicates if theutility and the generator set are available to acceptload. When the control detects that either source isready to accept load, UTILITY and/or GENSET willbe displayed in inverse video.

The Power Transfer main menu has four submenugroups. Refer to the page numbers shown in Figure2-10 for the Power Transfer submenu descriptions.

3. Control Calibration and Adjustment

GENERALThis section contains calibration and adjustmentprocedures for the generator set control.

PARALLELING AND NONPARALLELINGIf the generator set was purchased for a parallingapplication but will be used for a nonparalling ap-plication, entering the checksum data into the Data-plate Checksum dialog in InPower is not re-quired. However, the Adjustments Paralleling Paralleling Level must be set to Basic.

SOFTWARE CALIBRATIONSIf the base card has software assembly A026 F566v1.0 on the U33 flash memory chip, you must usethe latest software calibration for the control. If youload an earlier software calibration onto a base cardwith software assembly A026 F566 v1.0, the soft-ware calibration will fail, and the board will lock uppermanent-ly.

FIGURE 3-1. U33 FLASH MEMORY CHIP

CAUTION If the base card has software as-sembly A026 F566 v1.0 on the U33 flash memorychip, you must use the latest software calibra-tion for the control, or the board will lock up per-manently.

MODIFYING SETUP/ADJUST SUBMENUS

The Setup and Adjust submenus allow you to cali-brate the graphical display meters and to adjustsystem parameters, customer defined faults, gen-erator set voltage/frequency and paralleling ap-plications.

CAUTION Improper calibration or adjustmentof the control can cause equipment malfunctionor damage. Calibration and adjustment must beperformed by technically qualified personnelonly.

The Setup submenus are intended for qualified ser-vice personnel only. The Adjust submenu is in-tended for qualified service and site personnel only.For this reason, a password must be entered beforethis data can be modified. The Setup and Adjustsubmenus can be viewed, but not modified withoutentering the correct password.

CALIBRATION SUBMENUS

If you press the CALIBRATION button in the Setupmenu, the Calibration submenus will appear (Fig-ure 3-6).


The Calibration submenus allow you to calibrate thecontrol with the reading from a calibrated meter.Calibration is accomplished by using this section of

the menu software to adjust the display so that itmatches the reading taken on an accurate, recentlycalibrated meter.

Calibration is normally only required when replac-ing certain circuit cards. Refer to the CalibrationProcedure in this section which contains a list of thecards that require control calibration.

When performing Bus Voltage Calibration from thegraphical display, the genset must be off and the Buslive. If the genset is running, it will synchronize to theBus.

ISOLATED BUS / UTILITY Submenus(Paralleling Application)

The Isolated BUS submenus (Figure 3-7) and theUtility submenus (Figure 3-8) adjust the control pa-rameters for generator set protection, synchroniz-ing and load sharing for both isolated bus and utility(mains) paralleling applications. Utility (mains) par-allel applications may require adjustment of boththe Isolated BUS and Utility submenus.

Always perform ISO BUS calibration before UtilityBUS calibration.

The sync check (permissive) function is operationalin both automatic and manual (RUN) modes. Thecontrol will make sure that the generator set is atproper voltage, within the defined sync check win-dow for the defined period of time and that phaserotation is correct. When all criteria are met, the par-alleling breaker is closed automatically by the con-trol (auto mode), or by operation of the breakerclose switch by the operator (manual mode).

The synchronizing function of the control is enabledwhen the control has brought the generator set to90% of rated speed and voltage, and has sensedthat bus voltage is available. The control automati-cally adjusts the generator set speed and voltage tomatch the bus frequency and voltage. The controlcan force the generator set to match bus voltage

and frequency in a range of minus 40% to plus 10%of normal bus conditions. When the parallelingbreaker has closed, the control will bring the gener-ator set back to normal voltage and frequency.

When the generator set is paralleled to anothergenerator set, the control provides automatic loadsharing functions for both real (kW) and reactive(kVAR) loads. Load sharing is proportional betweengenerator sets based on their standby ratings. If twogenerator sets of different sizes are paralleled, theywill assume the same percentage of the systemload automatically. This can easily be verified on thekW Load LED bar graph on the front of the controlpanel.

When the utility paralleling mode is enabled and thegenerator set paralleling breaker is closed, the gen-erator set will assume load based on external ana-log input signal. The input signal must be calibratedfrom 05 VDC. When the signal is at 0.5 to 1 VDC,the control will operate the generator at no load inparallel with the utility (mains) source. At 4.5 VDCand greater, the control will operate the generatorset at 110% of the generator set base load setting.When the load govern signal is between 1 VDC and4.5 VDC the control will operate the generator set ata load level which is determined by a linear relation-ship between the kW reference and the load governsignal.

ISOLATED BUS SUBMENUS

If you press the ISOLATED BUS button in the Set-up menu, the Isolated BUS submenus will appear(Figure 3-7).


SYNC TIME LIMIT: This parameter adjusts the timedelay in seconds before the Fail To Synchronizealarm will operate.

REVERSE PWR LMT: Adjusts the reverse powerset point. For PowerCommand generator sets, atypical set point is 10-15%.

REVERSE PWR TIME: Adjusts the reverse powerfunction time delay. A typical time delay which is

suitable for PowerCommand generator sets is 3seconds.

Lower reverse power set points can result in nui-sance reverse power shutdown faults.

PERM WIN-PHASE: Adjusts the width of the per-missive (sync-check) acceptance window. The ad-justment range is from five to twenty electrical de-grees. Recommended set point is 20 degrees forisolated bus applications, and 15 degrees for utility(mains) paralleling applications.

PERM WIN-TIME: Adjusts the time period (in sec-onds) for which the generator set must be synchro-nized with the system bus, before a breaker closesignal is issued by the PowerCommand control.Available range is 0.5 to 5 seconds. Recommendedvalue for PowerCommand generator sets is 0.5seconds for isolated bus applications.

Adjusting the control for a smaller sync-check win-dow or longer time delay will cause synchronizingtime to be extended.

SYNC GAIN: The sync gain adjustment controlshow quickly the governor will respond to try to mini-mize the bus/generator phase difference. Increas-ing the gain speeds up the response. If the gain istoo high instability can result.

KW Balance and KVAR Balance changes should beequally shared among all generator sets.

KW BALANCE: This function adjusts the kW loadsharing function of the generator set. Before adjust-ing this value, all generator set calibrations shouldbe performed. If the total load on the system is notshared proportionately, the kW Balance can beused to adjust the generator set for more preciseload sharing. Increasing the kW Balance value willcause the generator set to reduce the percentage ofthe total kW load on that set.

KVAR BALANCE: This function adjusts the kVARload sharing function of the generator set. Beforeadjusting this value, all generator set calibrationsshould be performed. If the total load on the systemis not shared proportionately, the kVAR balance canbe used to adjust the generator set for more preciseload sharing. Increasing the kVAR balance valuewill cause the generator set to reduce the percent-age of the total kVAR load on that set.

KW GAIN: Adjusts the rate of change of kW load onthe generator set. With a constant load on the sys-tem, if the generator set load is constantly chang-ing, reduce the gain adjustment on the generatorset. This also allows modification of the rate of loadassumption on transient load change.

KVAR GAIN: Adjusts the rate of change of kVARload on the generator set. With a constant load onthe system, if the generator set load is constantlychanging, reduce the gain adjustment on the gener-ator set. This also allows modification of the rate ofload assumption on transient load change.

UTILITY SUBMENUS

If you press the UTILITY button in the Setupmenu, the Utility submenus will appear (Figure 3-8).


BASE LOAD (%): This controls the maximum kWload level that the generator set will operate at whenparalleled with the utility (mains). The value shownindicates the steady state load on the generator asa percent of the generator set standby rating.

Check generator set ratings for maximum load levelat which the generator set should operate whenparalleled with the utility (mains). Extended opera-tion at load levels in excess of the generator set rat-ing can cause abnormal engine wear or prematureengine failure.

PF LEVEL: Adjusts the power factor that the gener-ator set will run at when paralleled to the utility(mains). Recommended setting is 1.0.

RAMP LOAD TIME: This is the ramp time frompresent set load to level determined by the load setanalog input. This is active when the control first en-ters the load govern mode.

RAMP UNLOAD TIME: This is the ramp time frompresent set load to 0 kW. This ramp is active whenthe load set analog input is less than 0.5 volts.

MODE MULTIPLE/SINGLE: This controls wheth-er the set is to operate as part of a multiple set orsingle set (PLTE or PLTF) system. (Refer to LOADDEMAND SHUTDOWN and SINGLE MODE EN-ABLE function descriptions in wiring diagram,page 5-8.)

KW GOVERN GAIN: This controls the rate that thegenerator set kW load is increased after the genera-tor set has closed to the system bus when utility(mains) paralleled. Decreasing this value will resultin slower loading of the generator set.

KVAR GOVERN GAIN: This controls the rate thatthe generator set kVAR load is increased after thegenerator set has closed to the system bus whenutility (mains) paralleled. Decreasing this value willresult in slower loading of the generator set.

CALIBRATION PROCEDURE

There are several circuit cards/modules that, whenremoved and replaced, require you to recalibratethe control panel display for genset voltage and cur-rent and bus voltage.

Note that the type of calibration to perform varies foreach card. The letters A, B and C are used to desig-nate which of the following three calibration proce-dures are required for each card/module.

Genset/Parallel board (A, B & C) PT/CT board (A & B) Bus PT (C) CTs (B)

WARNING Contacting high voltage compo-nents can cause electrocution, resulting in se-vere personal injury or death. Calibration andadjustment must be performed by technicallyqualified personnel only. Read and observe allWARNINGS and CAUTIONS in your generatorset manuals.

CAUTION Improper calibration or adjustmentof the PowerCommand control can causeequipment malfunction or damage. Calibrationand adjustment must be performed by techni-cally qualified personnel only.

Use a calibrated RMS multimeter for accurate mea-surements.

(A) Genset Voltage Display Calibration

The PowerCommand control automatically synchro-nizes to the system bus when bus voltage is avail-able and the genset is running. Consequently, it isnot possible to calibrate the genset output voltage

display of the genset that is running when the bus isenergized. If it is necessary to adjust the output volt-age display of the genset that is running, the InPowerservice tool must be used to switch off the synchro-nizer function of the control.

1. Display the Voltage Calibration submenu(Page 3-6).

2. With the genset OFF, attach a calibrated volt-meter to the AC output from L1 to L2. (L1 toNeutral for single phase alternators.)

3. Start the genset and allow it to reach normaloperating speed.

4. Calibrate voltage reading for L1 so that thereading on the display agrees with the cali-brated voltmeter.

5. Shut the generator set OFF.6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for L2 and L3. (In step

2 attach meter to the AC output from L2 to L3 tocalibrate L2 and L3 to L1 to calibrate L3.)

7. Exit menu to safe changes.

(B) Genset Ammeter Display Calibration

1. Display the Current Calibration submenu(Page 3-6).

2. With the genset OFF, attach a calibrated am-meter to L1.

3. Start the genset and allow it to reach normaloperating speed.

4. Load the genset to maximum rated kVA atrated voltage.

5. Calibrate the reading for L1 current so that thereading on the display agrees with calibratedammeter.

6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for L2 and L3. (In step2, attach meter to L2 to calibrate L2 current andL3 to calibrate L3 current.)


3-30

(C) Bus Voltage Calibration

The PowerCommand control automatically synchro-nizes to the system bus when bus voltage is avail-able and the genset is running. Consequently, it isnot possible to calibrate the genset bus voltage dis-play of the genset that is running when the bus is en-ergized. If it is necessary to adjust the bus voltagedisplay of the genset that is running, the InPowerservice tool must be used to switch off the synchro-nizer function of the control.

1. Display the Bus Voltage Calibration submenu(Page 3-6).

2. With all gensets OFF, attach a calibrated volt-

meter to TB1-A (L1) and TB1-B (L2) of the busPT module (Figure 3-15).

3. Start another genset and allow it to reach nor-mal operating speed and voltage. Connect op-erating genset to the bus.

4. Calibrate the voltage reading for Bus Volts L1so that the reading on the display matches thereading on the calibrated meter.

5. Shut the generator set OFF.6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for Bus Volts L2 and

L3. (In step 2 attach meter to the AC outputfrom L2 to L3 to calibrate L2; L3 to L1 to cali-brate L3.)
