TP-6196 10/09 59Section 5 ADC-RES and DC-RET Controller
5.5 Controller Configuration and
Adjustment, ADC-RES
Note: The settings described in this section are not
adjustable on the DC-RET cotnroller.
The first step in troubleshooting the controller is to verify
that the controller is correctly configured for the
generator set. The ADC-RES controller’s configuration
modes allow setting of the engine type, generator set
configuration (marine, mobile, or standby), data input
types, and other parameters.
The controller configuration for each generator model is
set at the factory. Changes in the controller
configuration may be required after controller
replacement or other service. Use the instructions in
Section 5.5.4 to check the controller settings and
change them, if necessary.
5.5.1 Controller Time Out
The controller will automatically exit the configuration
mode without saving any changes after about 1 minute
if no buttons are pressed. Start the configuration
procedure again from the beginning if the controller exits
the configuration mode before the settings have been
saved.
Changes in voltage and speed adjustments are also lost
if they are not saved before the generator set shuts
down. The generator set continues to run with the new
settings until it shuts down but then reverts to the
previous settings at the next startup. Be sure to save
your changes immediately after making adjustments.
5.5.2 Voltage and Frequency
Adjustments
Voltage and/or frequency adjustments may be required
after controller replacement or other service
procedures. See the instructions in Section 5.6 to adjust
the generator set output voltage and frequency using
the ADC-RES.
5.5.3 Controller Application Program
Version Number
The ADC-RES application program version number is
displayed on the LED screen during the key sequence to
enter the configuration mode. Hold the Select button
and move the generator set master switch to the RUN
position. After about 5 seconds, the application
program version number will be displayed on the
controller display. For example, 01.10 will be displayed
for program version 1.10.
The DC-RET application program version number is
displayed during the first 2 seconds of the crank cycle.
