Status indicator lights relay conditions of generator
function for user or service technician convenience.
Illumination of these indicator lights communicate
conditions that require generator service but are not
severe enough to cause damage if the generator is
allowed to operate. Contact a qualified service technician
immediately for service if any of the listed lights are lit,
even if the generator appears to function normally.
A. LOW BATTERY
The Low Battery light is lit when the cranking
battery voltage falls below 11.0 volts. At this
level, the battery begins to lose the ability to
consistently start the engine. Causes of low
battery voltage may include a failing battery,
failed battery charger or failed engine alternator.
B. NOT IN AUTO
The Not In Auto light is lit whenever the control
panel mode switch is not placed in the AUTO
position. This light is provided to call attention to
this condition since the generator cannot start
automatically during a power outage without the
switch in the AUTO position. It is normal for this
lamp to light when the generator is running with
the mode switch in the RUN position, or if the
switch is in the OFF position. To turn the light off,
move the mode switch to the AUTO position.
H. GENERATOR ON
The Generator On light illuminates when the
generators engine is running. This is the only
light lit when the generator is supplying power as
intended.
Fault lights relay conditions that may cause damage
to the generator and/or loads connected to the output of
the generator. When any of the listed situations occur
while the generator is running, the generator is shut
down and the fault light associated with the shutdown
cause is lit. Once the light is lit, it remains on until it is
cleared by moving the control panel mode switch to the
OFF position. If a fault light is lit, determine and correct
the cause of the problem before restarting the generator.
During generator starting, the controller ignores fault
conditions until 15 seconds after the generator starts,
then uncleared faults will once again cause the generator
to shut off. To determine possible fault causes, refer to
the troubleshooting section of this manual or contact a
qualified service technician for assistance.
C. OVERCRANK
The Overcrank light is lit if all three 10 second
cyclic crank attempts are unsuccessful in starting
the engine. Once the light is on, the generator
does not attempt to start until the fault is reset.
When the Overcrank light is on , verify fuel is
available at the inlet to the unit, then check the
condition of the cranking battery.
D. LOW OIL
The Low Oil light turns on and the engine is shut
off if the engine oil level falls too low. To avoid
engine damage, engine oil pressure is monitored
to determine the amount of oil in the engine.
When pressure falls below a preset level, a Low
Oil fault occurs. Check for proper oil level if the
generator shuts down due to a Low Oil alarm.
E. HIGH TEMPERATURE
The High Temperature light illuminates if the
temperature of the engine becomes too high.
Engine oil temperature is monitored while the
engine is active and the engine is shut off to
avoid damage if the oil temperature becomes too
high. When operating the generator in
temperatures above the maximum listed on the
nameplate, it is necessary to reduce the load
connected to the generator to avoid overheating.
If high ambient temperatures or excessive loads
are eliminated as possible causes of High
Temperature shutdown, check to insure cabinet
openings are not restricted by debris.
F. OVERSPEED
The Overspeed light is turned on if the generator
engine is running too fast. Electrical output of the
generator at high speeds may damage loads
connected to the generator output and/or engine
failure may occur at excessive speeds. If the
generator shuts down on an Overspeed error,
seek assistance from a qualified generator
service technician.
G. UNDERSPEED
The Underspeed light is turned on if the
generator engine is running too slow. Electrical
output of the generator at low speeds can
damage loads connected to the generator output
and/or generator failure may occur due to
excessive heating in the generator head. If the
generator turns off due to an Underspeed error,
check to see that the connected loads do not
exceed the nameplate rating of the generator.
