C. Generator Control Module
The generator control module is mounted inside the door of the GPU’s electrical box. Its display
is read without opening up the electrical box.
GENERATOR CONTROL MODULE
FIGURE 9
The Generator Control Module (GCM) is the brain of the GPU-400. It is a fully-automatic voltage
regulator that not only provides voltage and frequency regulation, but also generator fault protection
and generator power output display. The GCM also functions as an engine instrument panel that can
display engine fault codes, and other useful information such as charging voltage and engine RPM. On-
screen directions in multiple available languages guide the operator on how to properly operate the
GPU.
The GCM monitors the 400 Hz output when 400 Hz is in use and automatically switches over to
monitor the 28.5 VDC output when the optional 28.5 VDC transformer-rectifier is in use. The GCM
provides line drop compensation on 400 Hz as well as line drop compensation and current limiting on
the 28.5 VDC transformer-rectifier. The GCM displays the generator output voltage, current, and
frequency on a backlit LCD. The voltage regulator is programmed to protect against the following
generator fault conditions:
