Installation Guidelines For 50 Hz Air-Cooled Generators

Generator Set-Up

Upon first power up of the generator, the display interface
will begin an installation wizard. The installation wizard
will prompt the user to set the minimum settings to
operate the generator. These settings are: Current Date/
Time and Exercise Day/Time. The maintenance intervals
will be initialized when the exercise time is entered.
(000191)
The exercise settings can be changed at any time via the
"EDIT" menu.
If the 12 volt battery is disconnected or the fuse removed,

restoration. The only difference is the display will only
prompt the customer for the current Time and Date.

Set Voltage

This 50Hz generator can be set to 220, 230, or 240VAC
during installation. Set to the appropriate voltage per the
installation.

Cold Smart Start

The Cold Smart Start feature can be enabled in the EDIT
menu. When enabled, the generator will monitor ambient
temperature and adjust its warm-up delay based on
temperature. If the ambient temperature conditions are
below 50 ºF (10 °C) upon startup in AUTO mode, the
generator will warm up for 30 seconds allowing the
engine to warm before the load is applied. If the
temperature is at or above 50 ºF (10 °C) the generator
will startup with the normal warm-up delay of 6 seconds.

Setting The Exercise Timer

This generator is equipped with a configurable exercise
timer. There are two settings for the exercise timer.
Day/Time: Once set, the generator will start and exercise
for the period defined, on the day of the week and at the
time of day specified. During this exercise period, the unit
runs for approximately 5 or 12 minutes, depending on the
model, (see
Exercise frequency (how often the exercise will take
place): It can be set to WEEKLY, BIWEEKLY or
MONTHLY. If MONTHLY is selected, the day of the
month must be selected from 1-28. The generator will
exercise on that day each month. Transfer of loads to the
generator output does not occur during the exercise
