1226Genset Frequency Error
1243Engine Derated
1244Engine Normal Shutdown
1245Engine Shutdown Fault
1246Unknown Engine Fault
1248Engine Warning
1311 and 1312Customer Input #1 and #2 (Warning or Shutdown)
1312Config Input #2 Fault
1317Low Coolant Level (Warning or Shutdown)
1318Low Fuel (Warning or Shutdown)
1322KW Setpoint OOR Hi
1323KW Setpoint OOR Lo
1324KVAR Setpoint OOR Hi
1325KVAR Setpoint OOR Lo
1328Genset CB Tripped
135OIL PRESS SENSOR OOR HIGHIndicates the oil pressure sensor output is out of range (OOR), high.
141OIL PRESS SENSOR OOR LOWIndicates the oil pressure sensor output is out of range (OOR), low.
1416Fail To Shutdown
1417Power Down Failure
143PRE-LOW OIL PRESSUREIndicates the engine oil pressure is approaching an unacceptable level.
1433Local E-Stop
1434Remote E-Stop
1435Low Coolant Temperature
1438Fail to Crank (Shutdown)
1439Low Day Tank Fuel
144COOLANT SENSOR OOR LOWIndicates the coolant temperature sensor output is out of range (OOR), low.
1441Low Fuel Level
1444KW Overload
1445Short Circuit
1446High AC Voltage
1447Low AC Voltage (Shutdown)
1448Underfrequency
1449Overfrequency
145COOLANT SENSOR OOR HIGHIndicates the coolant temperature sensor output is out of range (OOR), high.
1451Genset/Bus V Mismatch
1452Genset CB Fail To Close
1453Genset CB Fail To Open
1454Genset CB Pos Error

1471High AC Current (Warning)
1472High AC Current (Shutdown)
1475First Start Backup Fail
1483Common Alarm
151HIGH COOLANT TEMPIndicates that the engine coolant temperature is above normal and has reached the Shutdown trip point.
153INTAKE MANIFOLD TEMP OOR HIGHIndicates that the intake manifold temperature sensor is out of range (OOR), high.
154INTAKE MANIFOLD TEMP OOR LOWIndicates that the intake manifold temperature sensor is out of range (OOR), low.
1540Common Warning
1541Common Shutdown
155INTAKE MANIFOLD TEMP HIGHIndicates that the intake manifold temperature sensor is above normal and has reached
