2.6 Faults
Selected fault conditions are shown in Figure 2-5. Fault
conditions are classified as warnings or shutdowns. If a
fault occurs that is not listed in the table, contact an
authorized distributor/dealer for service.
If a programmable interface module (PIM) is connected
to the generator set controller, additional faults can be
activated by customer-supplied equipment. See
TT-1584, Installation Instructions for the Programmable
Interface Module, for available inputs and outputs.
2.6.1 Warnings
The controller displays a fault message but the
generator set does not shut down on a warning. The
controller resets automatically after a warning condition
is corrected.
2.6.2 Shutdowns
Under a fault shutdown condition, the generator set
shuts down automatically and the controller displays a
fault message. The OFF LED flashes. See Figure 2-5.
Shutdown switches (such as the low coolant level switch
or high engine temperature switch) on the generator set
will automatically reset when the problem is corrected.
However, the fault condition at the controller does not
clear until the controller is reset.
The generator set cannot be restarted until the fault
condition is corrected and the controller is reset. See
Section 2.6.4 to reset the controller after a fault
shutdown.
2.6.3 ATS Communication Errors
When a Model RXT transfer switch is used, an ATS fault
indicates that the connection to the interface board on
the transfer switch has been lost. Check the connection
to the ATS interface board.
2.6.4 Resetting the Controller after a
Fault Shutdown
Always identify and correct the cause of a fault
shutdown before resetting the controller. Check the
fault message displayed on the controller and refer to
Figure 2-5 to identify and correct the fault condition
before proceeding. Contact an authorized
distributor/dealer for service, if necessary.
Press the OFF button to reset the controller, or follow the
