3.3.2 Notes on Selected Parameters
Genset Info
Model numbers and serial numbers are factory-set for
each unit. If the controller is replaced, the genset model
number and serial number will need to be entered by the
installer. For the genset model number, select 38RCL,
48RCL, 48RCLA, or 60RCL from the dropdown list.
Find the generator set serial number on the nameplate
and enter it using SiteTech. See Section 3.5, Controller
Replacement, for information about other setup
required on a replacement controller.
Changing the genset model number will update the
engine model number automatically. Select the genset
model number and then click Apply Changes in SiteTech
to see the updated engine model number.
Genset Fuel Type
The Genset Fuel Type setting is located in the Genset
System Configuration group in SiteTech. Generator set
power and current ratings are different for different fuel
types (natural gas or LP). The fuel type setting is
available with controller firmware versions 4.5 and
higher.
Changing the Genset Fuel Type setting automatically
updates the Genset Power Rating and Genset Rated
Current settings. The power rating is used to determine
setpoints for the optional load management device. If a
load management device is connected and the
generator set is converted to a different fuel, use
SiteTech to change the Genset Fuel Type setting.
