UNDERSTANDING THE DIGITAL DISPLAY
See Figure 14.
The digital display shows AC voltage output, frequency, and
the total number of hours the generator has been used. To
cycle through these displays, depress the select button. The
indicators below the digital display will light in sequence to
show which type of information is being displayed.
If an alarm condition exists, the button associated with the
alarm will blink.
AC voltage: The AC voltage indicator will blink when the
output voltage exceeds the rated voltage more than 10%.
The light will stop blinking when the voltage returns to within
the 10% range.
Frequency: The frequency indicator will blink when the rated
frequency is more than 5%. Once the frequency has returned
to within the 5% range, the indicator will stop blinking.
Low engine lubricant: The low engine lubricant light will
blink and the engine will automatically shut off whenever the
lubricant level in the engine becomes low. The engine may
not be restarted until sufficient engine oil as been added to
the generator.
NOTE: It is normal for the indicator lights to illuminate and/or
blink each time the engine is started. Once the engine warms
up, the lights should default to the pattern above.
