2.2 — Protection Systems
The generator may have to run for long periods of time with no operator present to monitor the engine/generator conditions. Therefore, the gen-
erator is equipped with a number of systems to automatically shut down the unit to protect it against potentially damaging conditions. Some of
these systems are as follows
Alarms:
•
High Temperature
•
Low Oil Pressure
•
Overcrank
•
Overspeed
•
Underspeed
Warnings:
•
Charger Warning
•
Charger Missing AC
•

•
Exercise Set Error
•

•
Download Failure
The control panel contains a display which alerts the operator when a fault condition occurs. The above list is not all inclusive. For more informa-
tion about alarms and control panel operation, see Section 3 Operation.
NOTE: A warning will indicate a condition, on the generator, that should be addressed but not shut the gener-
ator down. Am alarm will shut the generator down to protect the system from any damage. In the event of an
alarm, an owner can clear the alarm and restart the generator prior to contacting their independent servicing
dealer. If the intermittent issue occurs again, contact your independent servicing dealer.
