General guidelines
What is described in this manual?
This manual describes MINT software configuration. The software configuration is designed for multiple sets applications with internal load sharer and synchronizer. What is the purpose of this manual? This manual provides general information on how to configure and operate the controller. This manual is intended for use by: Operators of gen-sets Gen-set control panel builders For everybody who is concerned with installation, operation and maintenance of the gen-set
!! Warnings !! Remote control

The NT controller can be remotely controlled. In case that maintenance needs to be done to the gen-set, check the following to ensure that the engine cannot be started. To be sure: Disconnect remote control via RS232 line Disconnect input REMOTE START/STOP or Disconnect output STARTER and output GCB CLOSE/OPEN The controller contains a large number of configurable setpoints, because of this it is impossible to describe all of its functions. These are subject to change from SW version to SW version. This manual only describes the product and is not guaranteed to be set for your application on arrival.

Functions
OFF-MAN-AUT mode
OFF mode
Outputs STARTER, GCB CLOSE/OPEN and FUEL SOLENOID are not energized. Gen-set cannot be started. If START,STOP,GCB ON/OFF buttons are pressed the controller will not respond. When the gen-set is running it is not possible to switch directly to OFF mode. First you have to stop the engine.
MAN mode
1) START - starts the gen-set. 2) GCB ON/OFF If generator voltage is out of the limits (adjusted in the set point group Gener protect) controller does not respond to the GCB ON/OFF a) controller closes GCB to dead bus. b) controller starts GCB synchronizing when bus voltage is OK and MCB is closed or when other gen-set(s) provide healthy voltage to the bus. Closes the GCB when synchronized and stays running in parallel (island or mains parallel). c) Unloads gen-set and opens the GCB if gen-set was running in parallel to the mains or to other gen-set(s). 3) STOP a) When gen-set is running in parallel: transfers the load to the mains or to other gen-set(s), opens GCB, goes into cooling state and stops the engine. b) When gen-set is running in single island (or in general there is no mains and no other gen-set(s) to transfer the load to): opens GCB, goes into cooling state and stops the engine. c) When engine is running unloaded: activates cooling sequence and then stops the engine. d) During cooling state causes immediate engine stop. Hint: The gen-set is permitted to run unloaded for unlimited time. Controller does not automatically start the gen-set when SYS START/STOP input is closed. Load control type in mains parallel depends on ProcessControl: #SysLdCtrlPtM = BASELOAD or LDSHARING setpoint.
SEM
In SEM mode, pressing of START or STOP buttons performs a predefined sequence: 1) START starts the engine, synchronizes and runs in parallel. 2) STOP softly unloads the gen-set, opens GCB, provides cooldown and stops the engine.
AUT mode
1) All gen-sets necessary to cover selected LoadRes strt are started when binary input SYS START/STOP is closed and Pwr management is ENABLED. Power management can be based on kW, kVA or on relative % reserve. a) 1 sec delayed when MCB FEEDBACK binary input is closed (mains parallel) b) delayed #SysAMFstrt del when MCB FEEDBACK binary input is opened start to island parallel (multi AMF) situation 2) The first gen-set closes the GCB to the dead bus, the rest are synchronized to the bus. 3) When all necessary gen-sets are connected to the bus and LoadRes strt is achieved, SYST RES OK output is closed. Output could be used to close the MGCB (Master GCB). 4) Total load and power factor are shared between parallel operating gen-sets. 5) Close input LOAD RESERVE 2 (or 3 or 4) and use setpoint LoadRes strt2(or 3 or 4) to switch to another load reserve setting. E.g. high load reserve during system start to be able to switch-on big devices, then during normal operation lower reserve to save engines (and fuel). Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF 8
6) If total load increases and selected LoadRes strt is no more fulfilled, after a Next start del next ready gen-set with the highest priority (lowest priority number) is started and synchronized to the bus. 7) If load decreases and selected LoadRes stp is exceeded, after a Next stop del the running gen-set with the lowest priority is unloaded, got off line, cooled and stopped. 8) Complete gen-sets group stops when binary input SYS START/STOP opens. If the input MCB FEEDBACK is closed (gen-sets are in parallel to mains) controllers softly transfer the load to the mains. When gen-set is unloaded (see GCB open level or GCB open del) opens the output GCB CLOSE/OPEN. 9) The Running hours balancing or Load demand engines swap can be activated in power management. Hint: Controller does not respond to GCB ON/OFF , STOP, START buttons and corresponding remote InteliMonitor or Modbus commands in AUT mode. Set Basic setting: FltRes GoToMAN = ENABLED to avoid automatic engine start when pressing FAULT RESET after any 2nd level alarm (Shutdown, Slow stop, Breaker Open&Cooldown).
Power management
Automatic gen-set start / stop function based on load changes and/or Running hours or Engine size. Following functions are available:
Power management in kW
Guarantees adjustable load reserve (load step) in kW. Suitable for load demand-based optimization. Activation: #Pwr mgmt mode = ABS (kW)
Power management in kVA

Guarantees adjustable load reserve (load step) in kVA. Suitable for generator- or busbar dimensioningbased optimization. Activation: #Pwr mgmt mode = ABS (kVA)
10
Relative power management in %

Guarantees that the engines be not continuously loaded more than to a certain level, leaving less than selected relative load reserve. Suitable for engine life-based optimization. Activation: #Pwr mgmt mode = REL (%)
Start/Stop conditions in Power management Reserve Actual Reserve Absolute ARstrt = PgNom PgAct kW / kVA ARstp = Pg*Nom PgAct Relative RRstrt = [(PgNom PgAct) / PgNom].100% % RRstp = [(Pg*Nom PgAct) / Pg*Nom].100% Where ARstrt ARstp RRstrt RRstp PgNom Pg*Nom PgAct
Start condition ARstrt < #LdResStrt RRstrt < #%LdResStrt
Stop condition ARstp > #LdResStp RRstp > #%LdResStp
Actual Absolute reserve in kW or kVA - for engine start calculation. Actual Absolute reserves in kW or kVA - for engine stop calculation. Actual Relative reserve in % - for engine start calculation. Actual Relative reserves in % - for engine stop calculation. Sum of Nominal power of all gen-sets on the bus. Sum of Nominal power of all gen-sets on the bus apart from the one, which is going to be stopped. Sum of Actual power of all gen-sets on the bus = system load. 11
Hint: Optional functions in absolute or relative Power management are: - Running hours balancing (equalization), - Load demand (different size) engines swap and - Power management of two or more gen-set groups (bus tie support).
Running hours balancing

The gen-sets priorities are automatically swapped to balance engine running hours. Up to 32 controllers are supported. Activation: #PriorAutoSwap = RUN HOURS EQU Important setpoints: RunHoursBase , #RunHrsMaxDiff
Different sized engines (Load demand) swap

Three running engines (priorities) are swapped based on load demand (one small engine runs on small load and swaps to another one big engine that runs when load increases). Activation: #PriorAutoSwap = LD DEMAND SWAP Important setpoints: #PwrBandContr1, #PwrBandContr2, #PwrBandContr3, #PwrBandContr4, #PwrBandChngDe.
12
Pwr management of splitted group

Important setpoints: Control group, GroupLinkLeft, GroupLinkRight When a Bus-tie disconnects the gen-set group the Power management can operate separately on each of them.
Load shedding
All LOAD SHED outputs are activated (closed) to trip the unessential load when gen-set goes to island: a) When GCB is closed after mains fail and gen-set starts in SEM / AUT mode. b) When MCB opens from parallel to mains operation in SEM / AUT mode. c) Before MCB is opened in MAN mode by button. The load shedding function is active in all controller modes except OFF. Load shedding has three steps and each step is linked with its own Load shed x binary output. There is only one load shed level and delay for all three steps as well as recon level and delay. Load shed can only move from one step to the next, e.g. No LoadShed to LdShed S1 to LdShed S2 to LdShed S3 and vice versa. Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF 13
BI Group link
If manual reconnection of the load is desired, the AutoLd recon setpoint needs to be disabled (AutoLd recon = DISABLED) and the MAN load recon binary input needs to be configured. Rising edge on this input resets the controller to a lower stage, but only if the load is under the Ld recon level at that moment.
Hint: If no Load Shedding outputs are configured, there is no record to history and no scrren timer indication of the activity of this function.

System Base load

Gen-set group is controlled on constant (or adjustable) power. The Baseload value can by changed by setpoint or via analog input. Important setpoints: ProcessControl: #SysLdCtrlPtM = BASELOAD; #SysBaseload; SysBaseLdMode.
Local Baseload
Selected gen-set from island or mains parallel running group can be loaded to constant LocalBaseload value. This engine is taken out from Load sharing and Power management. LocalBaseload value is reduced only when common group (actual) load is lower than this value. The gen-sets in the group will try to match their LocalBaseloads (when more than one) based on their controller addresses, so the first limited would be the one with the highest CAN address. I.e. this function will switch-off automatically in one or more controllers if there is not enough load to cover all the requested LocalBaseloads. Important setpoints: ProcessControl: LocalBaseload.
System Base power factor

Gen-set group is controlled in mains parallel to keep a constant (or adjustable) power factor. Important setpoints: ProcessControl: #SysPFCtrlPtM = BASEPF; #SysPwrFactor.
Import-Export
Gen-set group is controlled to keep constant (or adjustable) Import or Export value. The external controller InteliMains NT must be connected on the CAN2 to control gen-set group kW I/E. Important setpoints: ProcessControl: #SysLdCtrlPtM = LDSHARING.
Import/Export power factor

Gen-set group is controlled to keep constant (or adjustable) Import or Export power factor. Important setpoints: ProcessControl: #SysLdCtrlPtM = VSHARING. The external InteliMains NT controller must be connected on the CAN2 to control gen-set group PF I/E.
Engine states
Engine prelubrication
Engine params: PrelubrTime PrelubrPause Prelubr pump Not lubricated
Hint: To use Prelubrication, configure Binary output PRELUBR PUMP first. Prelubrication is disabled in controller OFF mode or if Prelubr time is set to zero. Binary output PRELUBR PUMP is opened when engine is running. Prelubrication cycle starts with PrelubrPause after engine stop.
15
Prelubrication cycle starts immediately when controller power supply is switched on or when mode changes from OFF to MAN or AUT or after Emergency stop was reset. An Alarmlist message Not lubricated is active until this first lubrication cycle has been completed.

Alarm types
ALARM/EVENT KIND LEVEL DESCRIPTION Warning Alarm Only 1 1 The alarm appears in the Alarmlist and is recorded into the history log. Activates the output Common Wrn as well as the standard alarm outputs. The alarm appears only in the Alarmlist. Activates the output Common Al as well as the standard alarm outputs. The event is recorded into the history. Activates the output Common Hst for one second. Standard alarm outputs are not activated. The event is only indicated in the Alarmlist. It disappear for the alarmist automatically as soon as the cause disappears. Standard alarm outputs are not activated. The event is only indicated in the Alarmlist and recorded into the history log. It disappear for the alarmist automatically as soon as the cause disappears. Standard alarm outputs are not activated. The alarm appears in the Alarmlist and is recorded into the history log. It causes immediate stop of the gen-set without unloading and cooling phase. The gen-set can't be started again while there is a Shutdown alarm in the Alarmlist. Activates the output Common Sd as well as the standard alarm outputs. The alarm appears in the Alarmlist and is recorded into the history log. It causes stop of the gen-set by the standard stop sequence, i.e. including unloading and cooling phase. The gen-set can't be started again while there is a Slow stop alarm in the Alarmlist. Activates the output Common Stp as well as the standard alarm outputs. The event appears in the Alarmlist and is recorded into the history log. It does not require confirmation, diappears by itself. It causes immediate opening of the GCB. In AUT and SEM modes the genset remains running for 60 seconds and then it is stopped by the standard stop sequence. In MAN mode the gen-set remains running until the operator changes it's operational state manually. If the controller is in AUT or SEM mode and all previously active Off load alarms disappeared the gen-set is automatically started back and connected to the load if the condition for the gen-set to be running persists (e.g. Rem start/stop is active ..). This event is used to put the gen-set temporarily off the load for any reason. Activates the output Common OfL.

Low Power
The event appears in the Alarmlist and is recorded into the history log. It does not require confirmation, diappears by itself. It causes reduction of the required gen-set load to the Min Power PtM during parallel-to-mains operation or local baseload operation. If all previously active Low power alarms disappeared the gen-set is automatically ramped back to the original required load, which is given according to the currently active load control mode (Load ctrl PtM) in PtM operation. Activates the output Common LoP. This alarm type is not overriden by the input Sd Override. Note: Available in IS-NT only. The event appears in the Alarmlist and is recorded into the history log. It causes immediate opening of the GCB (without unloading) and then the standard stop sequence with cooling follows. The gen-set can't be started again while there is a BOC alarm in the Alarmlist. Activates the output Common BOC as well as the standard alarm outputs. The protection is only recorded into the history log. In applications which control the MCB this protection causes opening of the MCB. The gen-set can continue operation in island mode if required. The MCB can be closed back as soon as there isn't any mains protection active (including the built-in mains protections). In applications which do not control the MCB this protection causes opening of the GCB. The controller waits then for the MCB to open. After that the gen-set can continue operation in island mode if required. As soon as there isn't any mains protection active (including the built-in mains protections) the GCB is opened again and the controller waits for the MCB to close. After that the gen-set can continue operation in parallel-to-mains mode if required. Activates the output Common MP. This alarm type is not overriden by the input Sd Override. The alarm appears in the Alarmlist and is recorded into the history log. It causes immediate stop of the gen-set without unloading and cooling phase. The gen-set can't be started again while there is a Sd override alarm in the Alarmlist. Activates the standard alarm outputs. This alarm type is not overriden by the input Sd Override.

*) Yellow color of Gen-set indication LED is available only in IS-NT. In IG-NT, Y indication of LED means that both red and green LEDs are on. Hint: The Standard alarm outputs are Alarm and Horn.
Sensor fail detection (FLS)

If the measured resistance, voltage or current on an analog input gets out of valid range, the sensor fail will be detected and a sensor fail message will appear in the alarmlist. The valid range is defined by the most-left (RL) and most-right (RH) points of the sensor characteristic 12.5% from RH-RL.

Hint: The sensor fail alarm does not influence the gen-set operation
Blocking types
BLOCKING TYPE All the time RunOnlyBlkDel1 RunOnlyBlkDel2 RunOnlyBlkDel3 Force block 1 Force block 2 Force block 3 DESCRIPTION The alarms are beeing evaluated all the time the controller is switched on. The alarms are beeing evaluated only while the gen-set is running. The evaluation begins RunOnlyBlkDel1 seconds after the engine has been started. The alarms are beeing evaluated only while the gen-set is running. The evaluation begins RunOnlyBlkDel2 seconds after the engine has been started. The alarms are beeing evaluated only while the gen-set is running. The evaluation begins RunOnlyBlkDel3 seconds after the engine has been started. The alarms are beeing evaluated while the input Force block 1 is not active. The evaluation begins ForceBlockDel1 seconds after the input has been deactivated. The alarms are beeing evaluated while the input Force block 2 is not active. The evaluation begins ForceBlockDel2 seconds after the input has been deactivated. The alarms are beeing evaluated while the input Force block 3 is not active. The evaluation begins ForceBlockDel3 seconds after the input has been deactivated. The alarms are beeing evaluated while the generator is expected to provide correct voltage and frequency. That means the alarms start to be evaluated after transition form Idle to Running phase when the period of Max stab time has already elapsed, remain beeing evaluated while the gen-set is running at nominal speed (regardless of GCB position) and stop to be evaluated by transition to the Cooling phase.

If the Binary input shutdown override (Sd override) is closed, all 2nd level protections are disabled to allow engine run in an emergency situation, e.g. sprinkler devices power supply. All protections are shown in Alarmlist and recorded into History, but the controller doesnt stop the engine because of them. If the input is deactivated and some protections are still active or not yet reset, the controller starts to take these protections into account and consequently stops the engine. Hint: All 2nd level protections are locked out, except of these: - Emergency stop - Overspeed - Underspeed (only if Fuel solenoid = GAS ENGINE) - Binary and analog protections configured as Sd override type. In fact this protection type means "Unoverridable shutdown", i.e. it works the same way as standard shutdown protection, however it can not be overriden (blocked) by the Sd override input.

Circuit breakers operation sequence, GCB fail detection

Note: In the following text, CB abbreviation is used for GCB respectively. Related binary inputs: - CB fdb CB feedback binary input - CB fdb neg negative CB feedback binary input. Used for increasing the reliability of CB status evaluated by the controller. In case that it is not configured, negative value of CB fdb is calculated internally within the controller. Related binary outputs: - CB close/open output for circuit breaker. Equals to 1 during the time when CB is requested o be closed. - CB ON coil output for closing coil of the CB. 2s pulse (5s if synchronising is not provided by the particuilar CB) is used for closing the CB. - CB OFF coil output for opening coil of the CB. 2s pulse (5s if synchronising is not provided by the particuilar CB) is used for opening the CB. - CB UV coil output for undervoltage coil of the CB. Permanently active, 2s negative pulse (5s if synchronising is not provided by the particuilar CB) is used for CB opening request - CB status output indicating CB status as evaluated by the controller. This signal is used for lighting LEDs on the panel, switching the regulations, CB fail evaluation, etc.

Binary Inputs - Control

Sys start/stop
If the input closes, the controller may start the engine (in AUT mode only). Request to start depends on state of setpoint Pwr management: Pwr management state and, if ENABLED, on the actual need of load reserve. I.e. all controllers in the system should have their Sys start/stop inputs active, but it doesnt mean that all engines are running. If Pwr management: Pwr management is DISABLED, the closed input requests the engine to start regardless of the load reserves. Gen-set is running both in mains parallel or island parallel (depends on mains condition). Reaction on input state change is delayed by setpoints #SysAMFStrtDel / #SysAMFStopDel in island mode, by 1 sec in mains parallel mode (= input MCB feedback active). Hint: It is necessary to provide valid Sys start/stop input to the all interconnected units otherwise their will not start automaticaly. Use wire or virtual periphery SHBOUT/SHBIN.
Emergency stop
If the input is activated, engine shutdown is immediately issued. It has a character of a Shutdown protection type, however some special behaviour follows in the case of its activation: - Outputs Ignition, Ventilation, Cooling pump, Prelubr pump are switched off, regardless of the engine state. - This input cannot be overridden with the input Sd override. Hint: Alarm type is set to No protection, as this input itself creates the shutdown protection. Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF 39
Input is inverted (= normally closed) in default configuration to achieve maximum security (broken wire).
Nominal speed
When this input is activate, the controller state is forced from Idle state to Running state, during the start of the engine. This action is allowed only 5 seconds after the starter is disangaged ( = 5 seconds after beginning of Idle time). This 5 seconds delay is caused by the fact, that 5 seconds after starter disangagement, the Underspeed protection is not evaluated ( possible RPM swing). So even if the LBI: Nominal speed is active all the time, the controller will be forced into the Running state 5 seconds after starter is disangaged. This binary input is not working in Cooling state, the controller is not forced back to the running state neither when Cooling speed = Nominal nor Idle. Hint: Use this input if you want to shorten the start-up procedure in an AMF situation.
PrestartBypass
If the input is closd, the controller bypasses the Prestart time and activates the Starter output immediately. Hint: Use this input to bypass the pre-glow / prelubrication time in the case that the engine has run a short time before.
Oil press
Behavior for Inverted = Open to activate configuration: Binary input must be closed when engine is not running and opened when it is running. "Sd Oil press B" is activated when input is opened on not running engine (still engine condition) or when stays closed for time period set by Engine protect: RunOnlyBlkDel1 after engine start. "Sd Oil press B" protection is not active when input is not configured.
Sd override
If the input is closed, all 2nd level protections are disabled to allow engine run in an emergency situation, e.g. sprinkler devices power supply. All protections are shown in Alarmlist and recorded into History, but the controller doesnt stop the engine due to their occurence. If the input is deactivated and some protections are still active or not yet reset, the controller starts to take these protections into account and consequently stops the engine. Hint: All 2nd level protections are locked out, except of: - Emergency stop - Overspeed - Underspeed (only if Fuel solenoid = GAS ENGINE)
Emerg. manual
This input is designed to allow the gen-set to be controlled externally, not by the controller. This feature is especially designed for marine gen-sets, which are supposed to be started manually as the controller has no power supply before the gen-set is started. It may be also useful in case of testing the genset or in case of a failure, which does not allow the gen-set to be controlled by the controller, but the gen-set itself is stays operational. The controller behaves following way: - Shows the text EmergMan in the engine status on the main screen. - Stops all functions regarding the gen-set control, deactivates all outputs related to it. - Stop Fail alarm is not beeing evaluated and stop solenoid is not activated if nonzero speed is detected. - Voltage, current, power and other electric measurements are active. - When the input is deactivated, the controller takes control over the gen-set according to the situation in which the gen-set was in the moment of deactivation. I.e. the gen-set remains running loaded if it was running and GCB was closed in the moment the input was deactivated. Hint: For successful recovery from a running state when the input is deactivated it is recommended to use pulsetype control outputs instead of continous-type. E.g. Stop Solenoid for fuel supply control and GCB ON coil, GCB OFF coil for breaker control. Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF 40
All common protection outputs, outputs represent voltage and frequency evaluation (Mains params Ok, Gen params OK) and controller mode are not opened (deenergized) in Emerg. Manual state.
RunIndication1 RunIndication 2 RunIndication 3

Any of three binary inputs can be used for engine running indication e.g. via Oil pressure contact. Active Running indication blocks engine start (to avoid starter damage).
AccessLock int
If the input is closed, no setpoints can be adjusted from the controller front panel. Hint: For IS-NT and IG-NT, this input is controlling the display #1, which is supposed to be attached to or close to the main module. As the controller mode (OFF-MAN-AUT-TEST) is one of the setpoints, not even that can be changed. The START, STOP, FAULT RESET and other control buttons are disabled as well. For remote displays 2 and 3 use AccessLock D#2 or AccessLock D#3.
AccessLock D#2
If the input is closed, no setpoints can be adjusted and no commands can be issued from IG/IS-Display #2. Hint: It is not possible to start and stop the gen-set, change controller mode or control breaker.
AccessLock D#3
If the input is closed, no setpoints can be adjusted and no commands can be issued from IS-Display #3. Hint: It is not possible to start and stop the gen-set, change controller mode or control breaker.
AccessLock ext
If the input is closed, no setpoints can be adjusted and no commands can be issued from any external terminal = via direct/modem/internet connection to the controller. Hint: Use these inputs to lock out the selected terminals for setpoint changes and commands (statistic, password and access code change). Such a terminal can only be used for monitoring.
Remote OFF
Active binary input forces the controller mode to OFF. When opened the controller is switched to previous mode. If the engine is running, the active input has no effect. The controller switches to OFF mode only after the engine has been stopped. Hint: Use this input to block the engine start during service. The control unit recovers to the previous mode if BI Remote OFF opened.
Remote MAN
Active binary input forces the controller mode to MAN. Hint: The control unit recovers to the previous mode if BI Remote MAN opened.
Remote AUT
Active binary input forces the controller mode to AUT. Hint: Use this input to switch the controller to automatic operation, e.g. using the external key switch. The control unit recovers to the previous mode if BI Remote AUT opened. Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF 41
Force block 1 Force block 2 Force block 3

Three binary inputs for user-specific blocking of programmable protections. If the particular input is active, all the protections with the corresponding Force block X block type are blocked.
Load res 2 Load res 3 Load res 4

If the input LOAD RES X is closed, the setpoint set Pwr management: #LoadResStrt X + #LoadResStop X (#%LdResStrt X + #%LdResStop X) will be selected. Higher index has higher priority when more these binary inputs are closed together. When not configured or not active, setpoint set #LoadResStrt 1 + #LoadResStop 1 (#%LdResStrt 1 + #%LdResStop 1) is used. Hint: All controllers operating in Power management must have the same Load reserves selected. It is possible to use Virtual periphery to share the signals between more controllers on the CAN bus. In such case one controller is a server which physically has the signals connected and other controllers get these signals via CAN bus. Setpoint set selection depends on the #Pwr mgmt mode if set to ABS (kW or kVA), #LoadResStrt X type setpoints are active, if set to REL (%), #%LdResStrt X type setpoints are active.
MinRun power 1 MinRun power 2 MinRun power 3

When binary input MinRun power 1 or 2 or 3 is closed, the corresponding setpoint Pwr management: #MinRun power 1 or 2 or 3 is selected. Higher index has higher priority when more these binary inputs are closed together. When not configured or not active, minimal running power is 0, i.e. the system works only based on Load reserves. Hint: All controllers operating in Power management must have selected the same MinRun power input. It is possible to use Virtual periphery to share the signals between more controllers on the CAN bus. In this case one controller is a server which physically has the signals connected and other controllers get these signals via CAN bus.
Priority sw A (Priority switch A) Priority sw B (Priority switch B) Priority sw C (Priority switch C) Priority sw D (Priority switch D)
Binary inputs for priority selection. Priority value Priority sw A Priority sw B Priority sw C Priority sw D Priority 0 or nc 0 or nc 0 or nc 0 or nc 1 1 0 0 0 2 0 1 0 0 3 1 1 0 0 4 0 0 1 0 5 1 0 1 0 6 0 1 1 0 7 1 1 1 0 8 0 0 0 1 9 1 0 0 1 10 0 1 0 1 11 1 1 0 1 12 0 0 1 1 13 1 0 1 1 14 0 1 1 1 15 1 1 1 1
Hint: Priority value is defined by setpoint Priority when all Priority switches are opened or not configured. Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF 42
The priority value defined by a combination of binary inputs Priority sw X is accepted with 1s delay. So if a change is made to more inputs simultaneously, it is accepted 1s after the last change sensed.
GroupLink
If the input is configured, the group linking function is active, i.e. this controller becomes the status server for two groups of gen-sets and informs them about the BTB status. If this input is closed, the controller reports BTB status as closed, if open, the controller reports open BTB status.
StartButton
Binary input has the same function as Start button on the controller front panel. It is only active in MAN mode and when setpoint Basic settings -> Local Button is set to EXTBUTTONS or BOTH.
StopButton
Binary input has the same function as Stop button on the controller front panel. It is only active in MAN mode and when setpoint Basic settings -> Local Button is set to EXTBUTTONS or BOTH.
FaultResButton
Binary input has the same function as Fault reset button on the controller front panel. To enable this function, set the setpoint Basic settings -> Local Button to EXTBUTTONS or BOTH.
HornResButton
Binary input has the same function as Horn reset button on the controller front panel.
GCBButton
Binary input has the same function as GCB button on the controller front panel. It is active in MAN and TEST modes only. In TEST mode in some special cases only (see description of the TEST mode in chapter Mode and functions description). Hint: All Binary inputs, which simulate controller front panel buttons, are edge (no level) sensitive, and they react on the rising edge only. Minimal input pulse duration is 0,2 seconds.
ManualLdRecon
The rising edge on this input switches the controller to the lower Load Shedding stage when Load shedding: AutoLd recon = DISABLED and the load is under Load shedding: Ld recon level.
GCB disable
The input blocks the GCB closing, even if all other conditions (e.g. during synchronizing) for its closing are fulfilled. Valid in all modes. Hint: If you want to lock out the GCB (or MCB) closing during synchronizing loop test, set Sync/Load ctrl: Phase window = 0. This allows the control loop to be tested while actual GCB (or MCB) closing is blocked. Conditions for closing: 1) voltage only on generator side of GCB (or MCB) 2) voltage on both sides of GCB (or MCB) and all synchronizing conditions fulfilled.
Alt brightness
Active binary input switches controller display backlight to the alternative setting. Alternative intensity of the backlight can be set independently using the controller panel buttons. Hint: Input available in IG-NT/EE and modifications only. For IG-Display and IS-Display modules, this binary input is located in the Power connector and its function is fixed (not configurable).
43
IssueActCallC1 IssueActCallC2 IssueActCallC3

Rising edge on these binary inputs forces an active call to be issued via the corresponding channel. Hint: Can be used to send e.g. SMS in the case of a mains failure to report that the engine has successfully started (linked from the output Gen params OK) and later on to report that the engine has stopped again (linked from the inverted output Fuel solenoid).
ECUComFailBlck
The input blocks the issuing of the alarm in case of ECU communication failure.
Startblocking
The input blocks the engine start. If active, NotReady state is shown on the controller screen and a message appears in the Alarmlist. As soon as input is deactivated, engine start is enabled again. Hint: Use this input for cooperation with external supervisory device, such as PLC. It can prevent the engine to be started because of some reasons not known to the controller.
ECU StoppedEng
Engine stop was activated in ECU, not from controller. The controller reflects this situation and also goes to Stop to avoid an Underspeed alarm (and record in the Alarm list).
CtrlHBeat sens
This input is used at a redundant controller to sense the "heart beat" from the main controller. The input is to be connected to the output CtrlHeartBeat of the main controller. If the redundant controller does not sense the heart beat from the main one, it will activate the binary output CtrlHBeat FD, which has to be wired such a way, that it disconnects the dead main controller from the genset, connects the redundant controller instead and activates it.
Force value 1 16
If any of the particular 16 input s is active, the Force value function on that corresponding channel gets active, forcing an alternative value to the selected setpoint.
CylDifEvalBlk
If the signal is active, the protection based on the difference amongst cylinder temperatures is blocked. After signal deactivation, the protection is unblocked immediately. CylDif evaluates deviation BI: CylDifEvalBlk Internal prot activity CylDif Prot active Fault reset
CylDifEvalDel
44
ExtValue1 up ExtValue2 up ExtValue3 up ExtValue4 up

Active binary input causes increasing of the corresponding ExtValueX value. The rate of change is given by the setpoint ExtValueX rate. If the ExtValueX reaches the ExtValueXHiLim, the further input request is ignored.
ExtValue1 down ExtValue2 down ExtValue3 down ExtValue4 down

Active binary input causes decreasing of the corresponding ExtValueX value. The rate of change is given by the setpoint ExtValueX rate. If the ExtValueX reaches the ExtValueXLoLim, the further input request is ignored. Hint: If at least one of the inputs (ExtValueX up / ExtValueX down) is configured for the particular ExtValueX, the external set commands to the same value are ignored.
ExtValue1reset ExtValue2reset ExtValue3reset ExtValue4reset

Active binary input causes ExtValueX to be reset and held at its default value, given by the setpoint ExtValueXdeflt. Hint: These inputs, if configured, do not block the external set commands (in contrast to ExtValueX up / ExtValueX down inputs). However, if the reset input is activated, the corresponding ExtValueX is reset to its default (ExtValueXdeflt) value. This default value is kept in ExtValueX until the reset input is deactivated, and the external set commands received meanwhile are ignored.
Pulse Counter
Hint: Pulse width (both high/low levels) must be at least 100 ms in order to be correctly sensed! Conversion ratio can be selected using the setpoints ConvCoefPulse. The converted values are visible in statistics values PulseCounter. These values can be reset using Statistics window in InteliMonitor. The minimum ratio beteen log. 1 and log. 0 has to be 1:1 This Binary input is not IS-NT archives.
45
PulseCounter 1 PulseCounter 2 PulseCounter 3 PulseCounter 4

The inputs are linked with corresponding counters, which integrate the pulses sensed at these inputs. Each rising edge of the signal at input increases the internal counter value. Hint: Pulse width (both high/low levels) must be at least 100 ms in order to be correctly sensed! Conversion ratio can be selected using the setpoints ConvCoefPulseX. The converted values are visible in statistics values PulseCounter X. These values can be reset using Statistics window in InteliMonitor.

ECUcomFailBlck
Active input enables to block indication of ECU communication fail e.g. in the case the ECU is switched off.
Binary inputs Status information

GCB feedback
Generator Circuit Breaker positive feedback input (closed if GCB is closed). This is a primary source for the controller about the status of the GCB.
GCB fdb neg

Generator Circuit Breaker negative feedback input (closed if GCB is open). Additional signal, can be used if both positive and negative feedback signals are available from the breaker. Hint: If both feedbacks are used and there is a mismatch between these signals, longer than 500 ms, a GCB fail alarm is activated. GCB feedback has to be configured to a physical input of controller. Do not configure any breakers feedback to the peripheral modules, it could caused problems due to time delay..
MCB feedback
Mains Circuit Breaker positive feedback input (closed if MCB is closed). This is a primary source for the controller about the status of the MCB. Hint: The controller decides based on this signal whether the gen-set is running in mains parallel or island operation.
MCB fdb neg

Mains Circuit Breaker negative feedback input (closed if MCB is open). Additional signal, can be used if both positive and negative feedback signals are available from the breaker. Hint: If both feedbacks are used and there is a mismatch between these signals, longer than 500 ms, a MCB fail alarm is activated.
NeutralCB fdb
Use this input to detect, whether the Neutral circuit breaker is open or closed. See also setpoint Process control: #Neutral cont. and binary output Neutral CB C/O.
Binary outputs Engine control

Starter
The output is intended to energize the starter motor during start sequence. The output opens if the Engine params: Starting RPM level is reached or maximum time of cranking is exceeded. Hint: If setpoint Engine params: Fuel solenoid = GAS ENGINE, the Starter output is active during Preventilation and Ventilation states as well to clean the engine off the unburned gas.
Fuel solenoid
The output controls the engine fuel valve. The setpoint Engine params: Fuel solenoid selects the output behaviour DIESEL or GAS ENGINE.
48
Stop solenoid
The output closes to activate the stop valve which interrupts the fuel input to the engine. The output is always closed until the engine reaches 0 RPM and other engine running conditions disappear as well + additional 10s. The minimum time of activation is given by the Engine params: Stop time setpoint, so even if all engine running conditions would disappear before, the Stop solenoid stays closed for that time. Hint: The output also closes if the engine begins to rotate spontaneously. It stays closed until still engine condition is achieved + additional 10s. Intended only for diesel engines, especially marine ones.
Stop pulse
1s pulse for engine stop command, intended for ECU connection.
Prestart
The output closes prior to the engine start (time defined by Engine params: Prestart time setpoint) and opens when Starter output opens the last time during starting sequence. During repeated crank attempts the output is constantly closed. The output can be used for pre-glow, pre-heat or prelubrication.
Ignition
Intended to activate the ignition unit of gas engines. The output closes immediately as engine running condition is detected and opens after the engine stop (still engine condition). The function is independent on other conditions, i.e. always if engine running is detected, the output activates. The output opens immediately when BI EMERGENCY STOP gets active. Hint: In case of repeated start: a) the output is switched on when RPM = 30 (it is fixed value) b) the output is switched off during Crank pause, but not until RPM fell down to 0 c) the output is switched off by STOP command when RPM=0
Ventilation
Intended for the engine ventilator control. The output closes together with Prestart output and opens after the engine stop (still engine condition). The output opens immediately when BI EMERGENCY STOP gets active or in OFF mode. Hint: The output gets active also when genset is spontaneously (not required) cranking.
Idle/Nominal
The output closes with transition from Starting (Idle) to Running state. It opens either with transition to Cooling state (if Engine params: Cooling speed = IDLE), or after the command to stop the engine (if Engine params: Cooling speed = NOMINAL). The closed output means that Nominal RPM are requested. Hint: Connect this output to the speed governor to switch the requested speed: opened = IDLE RPM, closed=Nominal RPM.
Cooling pump
The output closes when gen-set starts (engine started condition) and opens AfterCoolTime delayed after the engine stop (still engine condition). The output opens immediately when BI EMERGENCY STOP gets active or in OFF mode.
Prelubr pump
If engine is not running, the output closes with period Engine params: Prelubr pause for Engine params: Prelubr time. The output opens immediately when BI EMERGENCY STOP gets active or in OFF mode. Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF 49
Not lubricated
Output indicates the lubrication cycle (PrelubrTime) is not finished after controller Switch-on or return from OFF mode or deactivation of Emergency stop signal.
Binary outputs Breaker control

Hint: Controllers are protected against simultaneoous closing of two or more GCBs to dead bus by means of hand-shake signals on CAN bus communication.
GCB close/open
The output controls the generator circuit breaker. It is intended for contactors provides a continual active signal if GCB should be closed.
GCB ON coil
The pulse output for GCB closing. If GCB synchronizing is enabled, the pulse length is 2s, if not, pulse length is 5s. Hint: ON coil can only be closed if UV coil is already active for at least 1s and MinStab time has elapsed.
GCB OFF coil

The pulse output for GCB opening. If GCB synchronizing is enabled, the pulse length is 2s, if not, pulse length is 5s.
GCB UV coil
GCB undervoltage coil. Output is closed if generator values are within limits and GCB is ready to be closed. It is opened if GCB should be open, and then closed again if generator electric values are in limits. If GCB synchronizing is enabled, the opening pulse length is 2s, if not, pulse length is 5s. Hint: UV coil automatically opens and OFF coil closes if GCB is closed spontaneously, not from controllers activity. This state lasts until the GCB status has been deactivated. The only exception is during synchronization state, as an external device is allowed to close the GCB.
GCB status
Indicates breaker state expected by controller (based on gen-set state, controller commands and breaker feedback). Can be used for external indication of breaker status according to controllers information.
MCB status
Indicates breaker state expected by controller (based on gen-set state, controller commands and breaker feedback). Can be used for external indication of breaker status according to controllers information.
50
Neutral CB C/O
Neutral circuit breaker close /open output controls the generator Neutral circuit breaker. It is intended for contactors provides a continual active signal if NCB should be closed. See also setpoint Neutral cont.
LdShed stage 1 LdShed stage 2 LdShed stage 3

Load shedding outputs for partial load switching.
Binary outputs Control loops

AVR up AVR dn
Binary outputs for Volt / PF control by motorized or electronic potentiometer.
Speed up Speed dn
Binary outputs for Synchronizing and Load control. Outputs can be used instead of analog Speed governor output for older engine types. Minimum pulse duration is 0,15 sec. Maximum pulse duration is 10,0 sec. Binary outputs UP nad DOWN of a PID regulator produce pulses, whose length correspond to derivation of the analog output (further AOUT) of the same regulator. In other words: 1. If there is no change of the AOUT, no pulses are produced 2. If the AOUT is increasing, pulses are generated on the UP output. Pulse length depends on speed of the increase. 3. If the AOUT is decreasing, pulses are generated on the DOWN output. Pulse length depends on speed of the decrease. 4. Long pulses on the same output can merge 5. If the calculated pulse in each particular cycle is too short, it is not copied to the output, but is only buffered. When the buffered pulse exceeds minimal pulse length, pulse is generated to appropriate output. The pulses are generated even if the analog regulator output is already at limit value. As for speed and voltage regulation, this kind of regulation is good for droop-based systems. At isochronous system, it can cause stability problems, because it is slower. Hint: When Speed governor output stays near to the limit value (SpeedGovLowLim+0,2 V or SpeedGovHiLim-0,2 V) for more than 2 sec, the Wrn SpdRegLim message is displayed in the Alarm list and recorded to History. When AVRi output stays on <2% or >98% for more than 2 sec, the Wrn VoltRegLim is displayed in the Alarm list and recorded to History. Corresponding warning is blocked when Binary outputs Speed Up, Speed Dn or AVR up, AVR dn are configured to a physical BO or VPIO. It is not recommended to process these signals via the internal PLC, as the precise signal timing would be distorted.

For optionally attached IG-Display module, this input has no meaning. In IS-NT and modifications, this input controls the backlight of the IS-Display with address #1. For optional displays with addresses #2 and #3, this input has no meaning.
Cold Temp 1-4

In case there is a separate thermocouple sensor for measuring the cold end of cylinder temperatures evaluation, configure that sensor to this analogue function.
Analog outputs
The IS-NT has one analog output available. Default setting of this output is the value of actual generator power in the range 0 to 20 mA. Hint: It is possible to configure any other value available in the configuration using GenConfig. If the output range 4 to 20 mA is needed, the limits for analog output should be set according to an example in the following table: Requested power range 0 1000 kW Low High kW Controller analog output setting Low limit: -250 kW High limit: 1000 kW Low limit: Low - (High Low)/4 kW High limit: High kW
This setting ensures that 0 kW (Low kW) will correspond to 4 mA.

kWhours
Is the sum of kWhours produced by the gen-set.
kVArhours
Is the sum of kVArhours produced by the gen-set.
Run hours
Number of total run hours. Run hours are counted in the Control unit only when ECU is not configured or ECU unit does not send this statistics value. In the case of when the ECU provide Run hours controllers statistics value Run hours is overdrawed by this value.
Num starts
Is the total sum of gen-set successful starts
NumUnscStarts
Is the total sum of gen-set unsuccessful starts
Service time X
Is the result of Service time X timer. Service Time is decremented and the actual value is visible on the controller screen
TotalDownTime
Is sum of time when the controller is in OFF mode or any protection of second level is active or not confirmed

Setpoints
Password protection
Any setpoint can be password protected - 7 levels of protection are available. There can be up to 8 users defined, each one with different access rights (levels of protection). Every user has its own password. The password is a four-digit number. Only setpoints protected by the protection level that is covered by currently logged-in users access rights can be modified. If a user logs in from a particular terminal (e.g. the controller front panel), this does not unlock the other terminals for him, e.g. InteliMonitor connected directly or via modem. Setpoints opened from front panel are automatically closed 15 minutes (return to measurement screens) after the last setpoint change or when wrong value of password is set. System administrator (User 0 always present in the system) can reset the password for any other user. The controller programming (configuration) requires the highest - password 7 level, so only User 0 is able to modify the controller configuration or firmware.
Continuous internal evaluation of setpoints validity

In case of detection of Setpoints checksum (validity) evaluation error, the Shutdown alarm Setpoint CS error is issued to prevent the controller to run the engine with incorrect setting. The evaluation is provided at controller startup and continuously during the standard operation. I.e. in case of detection of such error, the engine is shut down immediatelly.
Setpoint synchronization
Setpoints, that are marked with "#" sign at the begin of their names, are synchronized with other controllers present on the CAN bus line, i.e. the system will ensure that the respective setpoint will have identical value in each connected controller. If the setpoint is changed in one controller, the same change will occur in all other controllers. This function is necessary especially for MINT application, where the system of Power management is based on fact that the respective setpoints are identical in all controllers. Caution: Do not perform repeated writing of setpoints (e.g. power control from a PLC by repeated writing of baseload setpoint via Modbus) The setpoints are stored in EEPROM memory, which can be overwritten up to 105 times without risk of damage or data loss, however it may become damaged, when allowed number of writing cycles is exceeded!
ProcessControl
#SysLdCtrl PtM
BASE LOAD
[ BASE LOAD / LDSHARING ]

The gen-set is a part of the System delivered power control (#SysBaseLoad) and produces a certain part of it, according to the actual number of running gen-sets and self Nomin power. This option is only active in parallel with mains, in island parallel operation the mode is always internally set to LDSHARING. The gen-set load is shared with other gen-sets according to the actual load.
LDSHARING
#SysPFCtrl PtM
BASEPF VSHARING
[ BASEPF / VSHARING ]
The gen-set power factor is controlled to a preadjusted level #SysPwrFactor. This option is only active in parallel with mains, in island parallel operation the mode is always internally set to VSHARING. The power factor is equalized with other gen-sets according to the actual reactive load.
66
#SysBaseLoad
[ kW MW* ]
From this value, the requested gen-set group power is calculated, according to the number of gen-sets running. The complete system produces the power equal to this value. Active only when SysLdCtrl PtM = BASELOAD. Step: 0,1 kW / 1 kW / 0,01 MW* Range: 0,1 kW 650,00 MW* *Note: The actual setpoint units and range depend on setting of the Power format (see GenConfig manual). Hint: If you set this setpoint to a higher value than the system is available to produce, the total produced power is limited with the sum of Nomin power setpoints of all gen-sets in the system.
LocalBaseload
[ kW MW* ]
(FV)
If the value is OFF, the gen-set takes part in the #SysBaseload production or in Load Sharing. If it is set to a certain value, the gen-set produces this power regardless of the other gen-sets. It is taken out from the PMS in this case. If the gen-sets operate in island parallel mode, the requested LocalBaseload value can be reduced if the actual load is lower than this value. The gen-sets in the group will try to match their LocalBaseloads based on their addresses, so the first limited would be the one with the highest CAN address. Step: 0,1 kW / 1 kW / 0,01 MW* Range: OFF, 0,1 kW - Nomin power* Force value possibility: Yes *Note: The actual setpoint units and range depend on setting of the Power format (see GenConfig manual). Hint: In the case the total load of the gen-set group which work in LocalBaseload mode is dropping and the load of the gen-set of the highest address is under 5% of its nominal power then the gen-sets of the second and first highest address get to load sharing mode together (see the picture below).

This setpoint selects from where the System Base load value is read if ProcessControl:#SysLdCtrl PtM = BASE LOAD and MCB is closed (parallel to mains operation): Force value possibility: Yes INTERNAL Requested System Base load value is read from ProcessControl:#SysBaseLoad. Requested System Base load value is read from the analog input MLC:AnExSysBld. It is expected that this signal be propagated via the Virtual periphery system from one source controller. In that controller, a physical analog input (with external Base load request signal) must be connected to AOUT virtual periphery module and this signal is then propagated to all other controllers set to EXTERNAL mode.

[ % ] (FV) [ % ] (FV)
The ratio of decreasing of the gen-set nominal power at DeratingX end level. Step: 1 % of Nomin power Range: 0 - 100 % of Nomin power Hints: DeratedX power = 90% means the nominal power reduction to 90%, not by 90%. Derating ratio is set to zero and functions are not active when Analog inputs PowerDeratingX are not configured (e.g. in default configuration). When Power derating function is active, the generator nominal power is decreased to DeratedX power and so Overload protection (BOC Overload) is based on this Derated power! The generator nominal power is reduced according to the bigger restriction the more reduced channel out of the two.

Binary outputs Neutral CB C/O for Neutral contactor control from all controllers are connected in parallel. Neutral contactor feedback is connected to all controllers as well. a) When MCB is opened Neutral contactor closes when at least one Generator voltage from the group (at least one phase) is higher than 85% of Nominal voltage. b) When MCB is opened Neutral contactor opens when all phases of all Genset voltages are lower than 50% of Nominal voltage. c) When MCB is closed Neutral contactor opens. Hint: Configure Binary output Neutral CB C/O and Binary input Neutral CB fdb Prior to Neutral contactor function is used. Neutral contactor fail is detected when no feedback comes within 400ms from the command or when MCB and Neutral contactor are closed together for more than 400 ms. When more logical controller groups are present on the CAN bus, the Neutral contactor is selected independently in each group, i.e. more Neutral contactors are expected even in EACH mode of operation one in each group.

Number of teeth on the engines flywheel for the pick-up sensor. Set to Fgen->RPM, if no pick-up sensor is used. In that case, engine speed is calculated from the generator frequency. Step: 1 Range: Fgen->RPM, 1 500 Hint: Generator frequency can be used (for RPM measuring) only when generator voltage (min 10V) is present during cranking. This is in general not suitable option for gas engines! Gear teeth should not be set to zero when Engine params:Fuel solenoid = GAS ENGINE (it is likely that RPM would not reach 30, the gen-set wouldnt start and gas valve would not open see Fuel solenoid).

Enables the detection of missing intercontroller CAN connection. If enabled and no other controllers are detected on the CAN bus (the complete bus, not only within the logical group), this protection activates. Force value possibility: Yes
LB/UART Log
(FV)
Enables history logging of IG-IB / I-LB connection. Force value possibility: Yes Hint: If communication via IG-IB is interrupted for more than 5s, it is automatically terminated. If it is established again after this period, it is considered as a newly created connection and a new record Terminal is done into history in case of LB/UART Log = ENABLED. This may cause overfilling of the history in case of some monitoring tools, e.g. InteliSupervisor.
CANAddrSwitch1

IP addr mode
[ FIXED / AUTOMATIC ]
The setpoint is used to select the method how the ethernet connection is adjusted. FIXED: The ethernet connection is adjusted fixedly according to the setpoints IP address, Net mask, Gateway IP, DNS IP. . This method should be used for classic ethernet or Internet connection. When this type of connection is opening the controller is specified by it's IP address. That means it would be inconvenient if the IP address were not fixed (static). AUTOMATIC: The ethernet connection settings is obtained automatically from the DHCP server. The obtained settings is then copied to the related setpoints. If the process of obtaining the settings from DHCP server is not successful the value 000.000.000.000 is copied to the setpoint IP address and the module continues trying to obtain the settings. This method is beneficial for AirGate connection as it makes the connection very easy, in fact "plug and play". When this type of connection is opening the controller is specified by it's AirGate ID and the IP address does not play any role.
IP address
[-]
In fixed settings mode this setpoint is used to adjust the IP address of the ethernet interface of the controller. Ask your IT specialist for help with this setting. In Automatic settings mode this setpoint is used to display the IP address, which has been assigned by the DHCP server.

ComApProtoPort
[ 1 to 255 ]
This setpoint is used to adjust the port, which is used for ethernet connection to a PC with any of ComAp PC program (i.e. InteliMonitor, GenConfig). This setpoint should be adjusted to 23, which is the default port used by all ComAp PC programs. A different value should be used only in special situations as e.g. sharing one public IP address among many controllers or to overcome a firewall restrictions.
AirGate server
This setpoint selects the ethernet connection mode.
DISABLED: This is a standard mode, in which the controller listens to the incoming traffic and answers the TCP/IP queries addressed to him. This mode requires the controller to be accessible from the remote device (PC), i.e. it must be accessible at a public and static IP address if you want to connect to it from the Internet.
ENABLED: This mode uses the "AirGate" service, which hides all the issues with static/public address into a black box and you do not need to take care about it. You just need only a connection to the Internet. The AirGate server address is adjusted by the setpoint AirGate addr.
AirGate IP
[-]
This setpoint is used for entering the domain name or IP address of the AirGate server. Use the free AirGate server provided by ComAp at address airgate.comap.cz if your company does not operate it's own AirGate server.

[-] [-] [-]
Use this setpoint to enter the user name for the SMTP server if SMTP authentification is enabled.
Use this setpoint to enter the password for the SMTP server if SMTP authentification is enabled.
This setpoint is used for entering the domain name (e.g. smtp.yourprovider.com) or IP address (e.g. 74.125.39.109) of the SMTP server. Please ask your internet provider or IT manager for this information. Hint: You may also use one of free SMTP servers, e.g. smtp.gmail.com. However, please note that some free SMTP servers may cause delays (in hours..) when sending e-mails. If you do not want to send active e-mails, you may leave this setpoint blank, as well as other setpoints related to SMTP server and e-mail settings. Proper setting of SMTP-related setpoints as well as controller mailbox are essential for sending alerts via emails
79
Contr mailbox
[-]
Enter an existing e-mail address into this setpoint. This address will be used as sender address in active emails that will be sent from the controller. Do not enter your or other recipient's e-mail address. Recipient's addresses are to be entered into the setpoints AcallCH1-Addr, AcallCH2-Addr and AcallCH3-Addr. Hint: Most of SMTP server will reject sending e-mails that contain nonexisting address in the sender address field.
Time zone
[-]
This setpoint is used to select the time zone where the controller is located. See your computer time zone setting (click on the time indicator located in the rightmost position of the the windows task bar) if you are not sure about your time zone. Hint: If the time zone is not selected properly the active e-mails may contain incorrect information about sending time, which may result in confusion when the respective problem actually occured.
DNS IP
[-]
In fixed settings mode this setpoint is used to adjust the domain name server (DNS), which is needed to traslate domain names in e-mail addresses and server names into correct IP addresses. In Automatic settings mode this setpoint is used to display DNS server, which has been assigned by the DHCP server.

Prelubr Pause
[ min ] (FV)
Pause between prelubrication cycles. Step: 1 min Range: 1 3000 min Force value possibility: Yes Hint: To use Prelubrication, configure Binary output PRELUBR PUMP first. Prelubrication is disabled in controller OFF mode or if Prelubr time is set to zero. Binary output PRELUBR PUMP is opened when engine is running. Prelubrication cycle starts PrelubrPause after engine stop. Prelubrication cycle starts immediately when controller power supply is switched on or when mode changes from OFF to MAN or AUT or after Emergency stop was reset. An Alarmlist message Not lubricated is active until this first lubrication cycle has been completed.
MaxCrank time
[ s ] (FV)
The maximum time the starter motor is energized. Step: 1s Range: 1 240 s Force value possibility: Yes Hint: If Fuel solenoid = GAS ENGINE, the engine will crank 25% longer with closed fuel valve after the last unsuccessful attempt in order to ventilate the remaining gas. If magnetic pickup is used and the controller does not receive non-zero RPM within 2s after energizing the starter motor, then cranking pause follows immediately. If Fuel solenoid = DIESEL, magnetic pickup is used and the controller does not receive non-zero RPM within 5s after energizing the starter motor, then cranking pause follows immediately.

Idle time
[ s ] (FV)
Idle time delay starts when RPM exceeds Start RPM. A start fail is detected if the RPM drops below 2 RPM during Idle time. Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF 81
Binary output IDLE/NOMINAL is opened before and during engine start (during Idle time) and after engine start is activated - in Cooling state, only if Engine params: Cooling Speed = NOMINAL. Step: 1s Range: 1 3600 s Force value possibility: Yes Hint: The Under speed protection becomes active 5s after reaching Starting RPM or other engine running condition regardless of the setting of Idle time (transition Idle -> Nominal RPM).
Min stab time
[ s ] (FV)
This is the minimum time the controller will wait, after switching the engine to nominal RPM, to close the GCB (the delay ensures that the GCB is closed with correct generator frequency/voltage). Step: 1s Range: 1 Max stab time s Force value possibility: Yes
Max stab time
[ s ] (FV)
This is the maximum time the controller will wait for generator voltage and frequency to build up, after switching the engine to nominal RPM. Step: 1s Range: Min stab time 3600 s Force value possibility: Yes Hint: When generator voltage in Max stab time does not reach defined limits (see Gener protect group), an alarm occurs and the gen-set will cool down and stop.

STOP = opens breaker, starts cooling, after set time stops engine INFIN COOLING = opens breaker, starts cooling; engine stays in that state for infinite time; after acknowledging all the BOC protections (and all the others which can block engine running) it is possible to switch back from cooling; in AUT mode automatically, in MAN mode after pushing Start button Force value possibility: Yes
Cooldown optim
DISABLED ENABLED
Gen-set cooling period is given strictly by the setpoint Cooling time. Gen-set cooling period depends on the load that was present in the moment of Stop command. I.e. the higher the produced power has been, the longer cooling period will be. It is a linear equation: Act power = 100% of the Nomin power => cooling period = Cooling time Act power = 50% of the Nomin power => cooling period = Cooling time / 2 ...
AfterCool time
[ s ] (FV)
Runtime of the cooling pump after engine stop. Binary output COOLING PUMP is closed when the engine starts and opens AfterCoolTime delayed after gen-set stops. Step: 1s Range: 0 3600 s Force value possibility: Yes Hint: For After cooling function configure the binary output COOLING PUMP.
Stop time
[ s ] (FV)
Stop time value means the minimum time for which Stop solenoid will be closed. If the engine stopping procedure will take longer time, the Stop solenoid stays closed until all signs of moving engine have disappeared (RPM, Vg, fg, Oil press, RunIndicationX) + 10 seconds more to have some safety overlap. After Stop time has elapsed and the engine is still moving, the alarm "Sd Stop fail" is produced. Conditions for stopped engine: RPM=0, Ug < 10 V, fg = 0 Hz, Oil press < Ain Sd level, all RunIndicationX inputs deactivated. However, this is not a normal situation and should be solved by increasing the Stop time setpoint. Step: 1s Range: 0 240 s Force value possibility: Yes
SDVentil time
[s]
If Fuel solenoid setpoint is set to GAS ENGINE, this setpoint adjusts the time of starter motor to be switched on for engine preventilation in case of a first start attempt after a shutdown or controller switch-on. Step: 1s Range: 0 60 s
Fuel solenoid
[ DIESEL ENGINE / GAS ENGINE ]
Selection of Fuel solenoid output function: DIESEL ENGINE: In this mode of operation the output closes to energize the fuel solenoid and enable the engine to start. The delay or advance of activation in relation to Starter output is defined by FuelSol offset. GAS ENGINE: In this mode of operation the output closes to open the gas valve and enable the engine to start. The output closes only if RPM > 30 (i.e. the starter motor is engaged) with FuelSol offset. The output opens if there is any reason to stop the engine or in pause between repeated starts. Hint: In the case of gas engine, the underspeed protection cannot be blocked by the Sprinkler function. For gas engines, it is strongly recommended to use the pick-up sensor, as non-zero RPM detection is required during the start procedure. Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 83 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF
FuelSol offset
[s]
This setpoint adjusts the Fuel solenoid output activation in relation to Starter output. Positive values mean that fuel valve is opened after the Starter, negative values mean that it is open before. Negative values are suppressed if Fuel solenoid = GAS ENGINE. Step: 0,1 s Range: -5,0 5,0 s
D+ function
[ DISABLED / CHRGFAIL / ENABLED ]
DISABLED: The D+ terminal is not used. CHRGFAIL:The D+ terminal is used for charge fail detection only. ENABLED: The D+ terminal is used for both functions running engine detection and charge fail detection. Hint: Expected behavior of the D+ terminal with regard to connection of the D+ alternator terminal, alternator type and setting the D+ function setpoint: 1. If the D+ terminal is not connected, its voltage will be ~0V when the engine is not running, ~Ubat -4V during the start and ~0V when the engine is running 2. If the D+ terminal is connected to a standard alternator D+ input, it will have ~0V when the engine is not running, the voltage will increase from 0 to Ubat as the alternator speed increases during the start and will have ~Ubat when the engine is running 3. There are some alternators equipped with electronic regulators, which are "self-excited" and do not provide standard D+ terminal. They may provide other terminal ("L" or other), which is designed for connection of a red bulb failure indication instead of D+ . However, this terminal can be "open collector" only and it will not work with ComAp controllers as it does not provide voltage.
Bin selector 1-4
[ OFF / ON ]
(FV)
These setpoints are linked with binary outputs Bin selector X. Activity of these outputs depends on setpoint state: OFF: The corresponding binary output is not active. ON: The corresponding binary output is active. Force value possibility: Yes The setpoints are intended for ECU control, e.g. nominal speed switching. The binary output values can be transmitted to ECU and control particular functions.
MaxFuelDrop
[%/h]
This setpoint adjusts the maximal allowed drop of the fuel level within one hour. If measured drop is higher then Fuel theft alarm is issued. The setpoint should be adjusted according to the maximal hour fuel rate of the engine and capacity of the tank. Example: A 100kW engine has specific fuel rate of 180g/kWh. Fuel tank capacity is 200l. The hour fuel rate at nominal power is then 100 * 180 = 18000g per hour, what is about 21 litres (density cca 830g/l => 18000/830 = 21). The maximal hour rate is then about 10% of the tank capacity, so optimal adjustment for this case will be 15% (with certain reserve). Hint: The logical analog input Fuel level must be configured onto the physical analog input where fuel level sensor is connected.
Engine protect
Horn timeout [ s ] (FV)
The maximum amount of time the Binary output Horn is closed (horn, buzzer will sound). OFF = the output wont be activated, NO TIMEOUT = the output stays closed until the alarm has been reset. Step: 1s Range: OFF, 1 3600 s, NO TIMEOUT Force value possibility: Yes
84
ResetActAlarms
DISABLED: If Fault reset is activated (from any source), only inactive (normally displayed) alarms are reset. So only inactive alarms can be cleared from the Alarmlist. ENABLED: If Fault reset is activated (from any source), all currently present (including inverse displayed = active) alarms are reset (asterisk in Alarmlist disappears for all present alarms). I.e. after an active (inverse displayed) alarm later on becomes inactive (normally displayed), it is cleared automatically from the Alarmlist if previously reset. Hint: ENABLED mode corresponds to the way that IG and IS controllers (previous generation) handled the alarms.

Minimum Power in Parallel to the Mains is the minimal value of the gen-set power in parallel to the mains. Gen-set is never loaded below this level (even if the active load control loop requests a lower level). There is no indication or alarm when Min Power PtM level is reached.

The value of Min Power PtM is ignored during Warming procedure. The setpoint is used as a limit for Low power protection: if it becomes active, the load is ramped-down using setpoint Sync/Load strl: Load ramp, to Min power PtM. After protection becomes inactive, the power limitation is automatically terminated.

Pwr management
Pwr management
DISABLED:
(FV)
Controller is not included into Power Management System. It reacts on Sys start/stop input closing immediately and starts the engine (in AUT mode only). If Sys start/stop is deactivated, the controller will try to soft unload to mains or other loaded gen-sets. If this is not possible, it opens the GCB immediately. After that, it cools down the engine and stops it. ENABLED: If in AUT mode and the correct dongle (IGS-NT-LSM+PMS) is present, the controller will take part in the Power Management System. I.e. it will decide based on the actual load and other gen-sets condition whether to run or not. Force value possibility: Yes

Priority
[-]
(FV)
Adjusts the priority of the gen-sets. Based on these priorities gen-sets are started or stopped. Priority 1 is the highest, Priority 32 is the lowest. Value 0 is intended only for external forcing input to achieve the highest priority in the system. Step: 1 Range: 0 32 Force value possibility: Yes Hint: Two or more gen-sets can have the same priority. In that case they behave as one big gen-set with the sum of gen-sets Nomin power. When Power management system is used priority are assumed after Power management is switched on. Priority in Run Hours EQU mode are assumed only when algorithm starts. When Priority have to be changed #PriorAutoSwap set to disabled, change priority and switch back #PriorAutoSwap to the requested mode.
#PriorAutoSwap
DISABLED: RUN HOURS EQU:
[ DISABLED / RUN HOURS EQU / LD DEMAND SWAP ]
Gen-set priority is given by setpoint Priority or forcing inputs Priority Sw X. Running Hours Equalization mode. All gen-sets in the logical group are kept to work approximately the same number of running hours. See also setpoints RunHoursBase and #RunHrsMaxDiff. Up to 32 engines can cooperate in this mode. LD DEMAND SWAP: For different sized engines, this mode allows to optimally select the running engines according to the actual site load. Up to 3 engines can cooperate in this mode. This option works in the #Pwr mgmt mode = ABS (kW) setting only! Hint: 1. Make sure that all controllers which are part of the priority switching system are connected via CAN to the priority switching Master controller (Priority Ctrl is set to MASTER). 2. Set PriorAutoSwap setpoint to Disabled 3. Set correct Priority in each genset controller to requested starting value 4. Set PriorAutoSwap to RunHoursEqu Please note that setting priority in more gensets to the same value means that gensets with the same priority behaves as one genset. Repeat the procedure whenever you want to manually affect behaviour of the priority switching system.

SLAVE:
[ SLAVE / MASTER ]
(FV)
Gen-set priority can be influenced by another controller via the CAN bus. The controller can be instructed to set another Priority than given by its Priority setpoint. MASTER: At least one controller in the logical group has to be selected as MASTER if some PriorityAuto Swapping mode is enabled. Only the controller with lowest CAN address becomes an active master, the other are ignored by SLAVE controllers. The MASTER controller evaluates the Priority changing for all other controllers in the group and sends them the forced Priority values. Force value possibility: Yes
#SysAMFstrtDel

System start delay between input Sys start/stop closing and start of Power Management System. When input Sys start/stop is controlled by mains decoupling relay, this setpoint adjusts the delay between the mains failure and the emergency start of the gen-sets. If the MCB feedback is closed, Power management is started with 1s delay after the input Sys start/stop closing - parallel operation with the mains. Step: 1s Range: 0 600 s

#SysAMFstopDel [ s ]
System stop delay between input Sys start/stop opening and Power Management System deactivation. When input Sys start/stop is controlled by mains decoupling relay, this is a delay between the end of mains failure and opening of GCB. If the MCB feedback is closed, gen-sets are softly unloaded to mains prior to GCB opening. Step: 1s Range: 0 600 s

#SlowStopDel
[s]
When the Slow stop protection occurs, the controller announces to the rest of the system, that the engine is no more ready. a) If there are another sets ready to start and supply the load, the protection waits until the substitute engine starts and connects to the bus. Then the engine with the active Slow stop protection softly unloads, cools down and stops. The controller waits for substitute engine max for #SlowStopDel time. b) If there is no other set to start, the protection activates immediately. If soft unload possible (another set is running or MCB is closed) engine is softly unloaded, if not, GCB opens immediately. As every protection it has to be reset by operator to get ready again. Step: 1s Range: 0 600 s
#MinRunPower 1 (2, 3)[ kW MW* ]

It is minimum required power of gen-set group (sum of Nomin power of running gen-sets). When Binary input Sys start/stop is closed, starts and stays running such a number of gen-sets to keep selected #MinRunPower X value. This is independent on load reserves system, so even if there is high load reserve that would allow to stop some engines, Minimum Running Power system may force them to keep running. When binary input MinRunPower X is closed, the corresponding #MinRun power X value is selected. When more binary inputs MinRunPower X are closed, the higher number has higher priority. When no input closed, no #MinRunPower X is selected and minimum running power is zero, leaving only the load reserves system to work. Step: 0,1 kW / 1 kW / 0,01 MW* Range: 0,0 kW 650,00 MW *Note: The actual setpoint units and range depend on setting of the Power format (see GenConfig manual). Hint: An engine will be stopped only if the sum of remaining gen-sets nominal powers is higher or equal to #MinRunPower X level.

Step: 1h Range: 0 - 200000 h Force value possibility: Yes Example: Gen-set 1 actual Running hours = 1000 h. Gen-set 2 actual Running hours = 2000 h. Adjust RunHoursBase for Gen-set 1 = 1000 h and RunHoursBase for Gen-set 2 = 2000 h to be on the same base for Running Hours Equalization.
#RunHrsMaxDiff [ h ]
Maximum allowed Running hours difference between gen-sets. Conditions to take part in Running Hours Equalization: Pwr management = ENABLED. #PriorAutoSwap = RUN HOURS EQU Binary input Sys start/stop is closed. When a gen-set reaches #RunHrsMaxDiff value its Priority is automatically swapped with lowest priority genset that takes part in Running Hours Equalization. Step: 1h Range: 0 - 65000 h
#PwrBandContr 1 #PwrBandContr 2 #PwrBandContr 3 #PwrBandContr 4 [ 1 / 2 / 1+2 / 3 / 1+3 / 2+3 / 1+2+3 ]

According to selected controller addresses combination (controllers must have addresses 1-3), running gensets are selected based on the actual site load. The limits of site power bands are given by nominal powers of particular gen-sets. The gen-sets that are required to run in certain power band get the priorities 1, other gen-sets get the priority 32. This system does not influence the setpoint Priority. Example: Gen-set 1 = 20 kW Gen-set 2 = 50 kW Gen-set 3 = 100 kW #PwrBandContr1 = 1 (active if load under 20-#LoadResStrt X kW) #PwrBandContr2 = 1+2 (active between 20 .. 70-#LoadResStrt X kW) #PwrBandContr3 = 3 (active between 70 .. 100-#LoadResStrt X kW) #PwrBandContr4 = 2+3 (active between 100 .. 150-#LoadResStrt X kW) Above the last power band, all gen-sets will be instructed to run.

Control group
[ ]
Defines the logical group which links this gen-set with other gen-sets on the CAN bus. The gen-sets in each logical group make the Load Sharing and VAr Sharing independently on other groups, allowing more such groups to be present on the CAN bus. Groups can be linked together using GroupLink tools. Step: 1 Range: COMMON (=1), 2 32
GroupLinkLeft GroupLinkRight [ ]
These setpoints define the gen-set groups present to both sides of a special breaker. The information about the breaker status is sent to all controllers via CAN bus and the affected controllers will behave according to it. Step: 1 Range: COMMON (=1), 2 32 Hint: Example: if settings are GroupLinkLeft = 1 and GroupLinkRight = 2 and the special breaker is closed, a CAN message is sent to notify all gen-sets in groups 1 and 2, that they should work together and make Load and VAr Sharing not only within their groups, but together with the other group, too. The message is sent if logical binary input GroupLink is active, and this signal should be linked to the feedback of the special breaker (e.g. Bus-tie).

GCB open level
[%]
Power level for opening the GCB while soft unload is in progress. If this level isnt reached, the GCB opens after GCB open del time. Step: % of Nomin power Range: 0 to 100 %
GCB open del
[ s ] (FV)
The timeout to unload the gen-set. Should the load ramp fail to bring the gen-set power down to GCB open level to allow the opening of GCB, the breaker will open after GCB open del. Step: 1s Range: Load ramp 1800 s Force value possibility: Yes
Sync timeout
[s]
Maximum allowed time for forward or reverse synchronization. Step: 1s Range: 1 1800 s, NO TIMEOUT Hint: If the synchronizing does not succeed within (Sync timeout / 10, but minimum 60) s, the speed regulator output is reset and synchronisation is automatically started again. So if you set the Sync timeout to sufficiently high value, the synchronizing cycle can be internally repeated up to 10 times. If NO TIMEOUT is selected, then the time for synchronizing has no limitation and can only be interrupted by pressing the GCB or STOP button in MAN mode or removing a corresponding request input in AUT mode. In the NO TIMEOUT case, the synchronization is restarted every 1800 / 10 = 180 s.

Sync/load control adjustment

Hint: Use isochronous speed governor. Two wire shielded connection from IGS-NT SPEED GOVERNOR output (SG OUT, SG COM) to Speed governor auxiliary input is recommended. A full range change of the IGS-NT speed governor output (from SpeedGovLowLim to SpeedGovHiLim) should cause 5-10% change of the engine speed (SpeedGovLowLim ~ 95% RPMnom, Speed gov bias ~ 100% RPMnom, SpeedGovHiLim ~ 105% RPMnom. IMPORTANT Speed governor has to be adjusted for optimum performance before Sync / load control adjusting. Check generator phase sequence before the first GCB connection.

Before optimal Sync/load setpoints adjusting disconnect GCB OPEN/CLOSE output or set Phase window = 0 to avoid paralleling.
Synchronizer adjustment
1) 2) Start the engine in MAN Mode. Set the engine RPM by speed trim on speed governor or by Speed gov bias and SpeedGovLowLim and SpeedGovHiLim to Nominal frequency. 3) To start synchronizing press GCB ON/OFF button. GCB LED starts to flash to indicate synchronization. To stop synchronization press again GCB ON/OFF . Slip control adjusting: 4) Adjust Freq gain to unstable speed control and decrease value by 30 % to insure stable performance. 5) Adjust Freq int to stable (fast and smooth) slip control. Synchroscope movement on the controller measure screen should slow down and stop (in any position, because Angle control is off). Angle control adjusting: 6) Set Angle gain. Synchroscope on the controller measure screen should move slowly and stop in up position. Set Angle gain to unstable value (synchroscope swings) and decrease value by 30 % to insure stable performance.
Load control adjustment

Prior to Sync/Load control adjustment, the Volt/PF control has to be adjusted! Load control loop is active in parallel to mains mode only (MCB feedback closed). Switch off other engines while adjusting. 1) Set #SysLdCtrl PtM = Baseload, set Baseload value to 30 % of Nominal power of one gen-set. 2) Set Load gain to the same value as Slip freq gain. Set Load int to zero. 3) Start the gen-set in MAN Mode, press GCB ON/OFF button to synchronize and close gen-set to mains. 4) When GCB is closed, gen-set load slowly increases to Base load value. Check that gen-set power is positive (CT polarity!). Inteli NT MINT, SW Version 2.5, ComAp January 2011 103 IGS-NT-MINT-2.5-Reference Guide.PDF
Increase Load gain to unstable load control and decrease value by 30 % to insure stable performance. When Load int factor is set to zero gen-set load can differ from required Baseload. 6) To adjust and optimize Load int change several times Base load between 30 and 70 % of Nominal power. Usually setting Load int to 100% gives optimal performance. 7) When gen-set is running full load check if a. Speed governor output voltage value is not limited (not reached SpeedGovLowLim or SpeedGovHiLim) b. Speed governor actuator isnt mechanically limited or operates in small section of throttle range.

Volt/PF control adjustment

IG-AVRi output connection
Every time refer to corresponding AVR manual before interface connecting. Use no droop AVR. IG-AVRi-TRANS (AC power supply for AVRi) has to be supplied from gen-set voltage. AVRi outputs can be connected as symmetrical: OUT1-OUT2 or unsymmetrical OUT1-OCOM or OUT2OCOM. Potentiometer on the AVRi defines maximal OUT1, OUT2 voltage range. Use symmetrical (OUT1,OUT2) AVRi output to connect the AVRi to AVR auxiliary voltage input. Use unsymmetrical output if an external AVR potentiometer has to be replaced with AVRi. AVRi output voltage should change generator voltage typically in range 10 % of Nominal voltage. For more details please refer to Installation guide chapter AVR interface examples.

Voltage control adjustment

1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) Set Voltage gain, Voltage int to zero and AVR DCout bias to 50%. Start always with AVRi pot min adjustment (fully counterclockwise). Start the gen-set in MAN Mode to nominal speed, without load. Adjust generator voltage to nominal value by the potentiometer present on the AVR. If there is no potentiometer on the AVR, use AVR DCout bias to adjust the nominal voltage. Change AVR DCout bias to 0% and 100% to check generator voltage control range (typically 10 % of nominal voltage). Adjust voltage control range by AVRi trim. Set AVR DCout bias to be Nominal voltage on generator (50%). When gen-set is running unloaded increase carefully Voltage gain to unstable point and then decrease value by 30 % to insure stable performance. Adjust Voltage int (usually setting to 100% gives optimal performance).
Hint: To judge optimal adjusting induce generator voltage jumps by AVR DCout bias change or by Nominal voltage change . AVRi output OCOM is common output. GND was used instead of OCOM
PF control adjustment
The genset should be cca 30 % loaded in parallel to mains and baseload mode. 1) Set the same values PF gain, PF int as in voltage control loop. 2) Set Process control: #SysLdCtrl PtM = BASELOAD, #SysBaseLoad = 30 % of Nominal load, #SysPFCtrl PtM = BASEPF, #SysPwrFactor = 1.0. 3) Start and synchronize the gen-set in MAN Mode by pressing GCB ON/OFF 4) When running in parallel 30% loaded increase slowly PF gain to unstable point and then decrease value by 30 % to insure stable performance. 5) Adjust PF int (usually setting to 100% gives optimal performance). Hint: To judge optimal adjusting induce generator power jumps by SysBaseLoad change or by soft changes of AVR DCout bias.
Force value

Timer channel 1-16

Defines the setting of particular timer channel. There is 16 channels, each defines occurrence date and time (year, month, day, hour, minute), duration time (in minutes, maximum is 24*60), repeating period (day, week, month, once). In case of week day of the week selection, when should be executed + selection of repeating (every 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th week); In case of month day of the month selection (e.g. every 3rd day or every 2nd Monday) Every channel can be disabled by blocking input. If blocking input is active then the timer is not activated even if it should be, according to its other settings. The channels are divided into groups of 4. Each group has independent binary output, which activates if any of the 4 channels within the group is active (1-4, 5-8,...), see the picture below. There is also one common output for all 16 channels.

Controller configuration and monitoring

IGS-NT istallation pack contains separate PC software tools: GenConfig (GC) and InteliMonitor (IM). GC and IM are based on Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000/XP or higher platform and require approximately 80 Mbyte of hard disc free space.
Direct connection to the PC

IGS-NT controller can be connected directly with PC via RS232 or USB interface. Use the crossed RS232 or USB cable to connect PC with controller. Hint: Make sure the grounding system on controller and PC COM port (negative of the PC DC supply) are identical before the first direct connection. There must not be any voltage between these two points otherwise the internal PTC protection activates and interrupts RS232 communication. In such case disconnect RS232 line, wait a minute for PTC recovery and try again. The simple solution is to assure that the PC supply 240/20V is ground free (GND terminal is not connected).
