TABLE 2-4. DIAGNOSTIC CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
KEY
CONTROL OR INDICATOR
FUNCTION
DCS LOAD SHARING SYNCHRONIZER
1
L1 indicator (green LED)
This indicator is lit when the load sharing control is making
transition from zero power output up to a power output in a
load sharing (paralleling) condition. Normally, this LED is lit
only during the load sharing (paralleling) period.
2
L2 indicator (green LED)
This indicator is lit only when zero power from the generator
set is reached before the breaker is opened. It indicates when
the I/O interface module is calling for the generator to go to
zero power output before the generator breaker is opened
automatically by the I/O interface module.
3
REVERSE POWER (red LED)
This indicator is lit when a reverse power situation exists. The
I/O interface module has been notified to remove the generator
set from service (open the breaker).
4
GEN indicator (green LED)
This indicator is normally lit when the generator set is operating
(engine is running). When lit, the LED indicates the module is
receiving AC power from the generator.
5
BUS indicator (green LED)
This indicator is normally lit only when the generator set is
running and the main breaker is closed. It is also lit when
another generator set is connected to the main breaker and its
breaker is closed. When lit, the LED indicates AC power is
being received from the bus (the output of the generator set
main breaker) into the module. The indicator is not lit if the
bus has failed, and when this module is not being used.
6
SYNCH ENABLED indicator
(green LED)
This indicator is lit only when the I/O interface module requests
synchronizing the output power of the generator set with a
second generator set and the paralleling cable has been
connected between the two sets. In addition, the AC CIRCUIT
INTERRUPT switch on the primary set has been previously
moved to the CLOSED position. This indicator is lit only
during the synchronizing period.
7
PARALLEL ENABLE indicator
(green LED)
This indicator will be lit when the I/O interface module has
closed the main breaker. That is, the I/O interface module has
commanded the DCS load sharing synchronizer to close the
connection with the paralleling cable and begin parallel
operation of the two generator sets.
8
SYNCHRONIZED indicator
(green LED)
This indicator will be lit when the generator is in synch with the
bus. When this LED is lit, the DCS load sharing synchronizer
has signaled the I/O interface module that paralleling may
occur.
9
DC POWER indicator (green
LED)
This indicator is normally lit only when the generator set is
operating (engine is running). It is off at all other times. When
lit, the LED indicates the internal DC supply of the module is
operating (i.e., the module is receiving DC power from the
generator set, and the module is properly converting the power
into its own operating voltage(s).
