8.2.5 Controller Configuration
The controller configuration for each generator model is
set at the factory and should not normally require
changes. The controller’s configuration mode allows
adjustment of the system parameters listed in this
section. Usethe instructions in this section to check the
configuration after installation and change them to
match the settings shown in Figure 8-8, if necessary.
The controller will automatically exit the configuration
mode without saving any changes after about 1 minute
if no buttons are pressed. Start the configuration
procedure over again from the beginningif thecontroller
exits the configuration mode before the settings have
been saved.
Follow the instructions in Figure 8-9 to enter the
configuration mode while the engine is not running and
then step through the following parameters. Use the
up () and down () arrow buttons to select the
appropriate setting for the application.
Voltage/frequency setting (Uu). Select the system
voltage and frequency from the table in Figure 8-8. For
system voltages not listed in the table, select the setting
closest to the system voltage and then adjust the output
voltage to the desired level using the instructions in
Section 8.2.4.
Note: This parameter sets the nominal system voltage
and frequency. To adjust the output (measured)
voltage, see Section 8.2.4.
Unit configuration (Uc). This parameter sets the
generator set type: marine, standby, or mobile. The
setting for the 10/13/15ERG is Uc02, mobile.
Note: The engine type (EC) and the engine data input
type (ED) are factory set and should only be
changed by an authorized Kohler
dealer/distributor. Incorrect settings will make
your unit non-functional.
Engine configuration (Ec). The engine configuration
must match the generator set engine type. The engine
configuration setting for the 10/13/15ERG is Ec03.
Advanced configuration mode (Adnc). The data
input types, battery voltage, and communications
setting can be changed in the advanced configuration
mode. Press the up arrow button when Adnc is
displayed to enter the advanced configuration mode.
Engine data input types (Ed). This setting defines the
type of senders used on the generator set engine.
Setting the Ec parameter automatically sets the Ed
parameter.
The remote digital gaugerequires the optionalanalog oil
pressure sender. Install the optional senderand change
the Ed parameter to Ed02.
Battery voltage (Bt). This setting toggles between 12
and 24 VDC for the engine starting battery voltage. The
10/13/15ERG models use a 12-volt battery, Bt12.
Communications setting (Cn). Thissetting allows the
user to set the controller for communication with
optional meters. The 10/13/15ERG models are
factory-set for no CAN communications, Cn00. Change
this setting to Cn01 if the optional Remote Digital Gauge
is used.
Note: Be sure to save your settings before exiting the
configuration mode. The controller reverts to the
last saved settings when the master switch is
moved to the OFF/RESET position.
