  7. Set each successive digit to the right until the correct genset hours are displayed, then press ENTER to store.
Hot Air Recirculation Test diagnostic

⚠ Exhaust gas is deadly

Tools: thermocouples (24 AWG or lighter)

  1. Complete a representative installation
  2. Conduct test in well-ventilated space protected from cross drafts
  3. Connect large constant load (at least 3/4 full load if load bank available)
  4. Measure temperatures with thermocouples not heavier than 0.21 mm2 (24 AWG)
  5. Measure generator set intake air temperature 25.4 mm (1 in) from radiator face
  6. Measure ambient air temperature within 1.2 m (4 ft) of generator set, shielded from sun/discharge air
  7. Close all compartment doors, run generator set at least 90 minutes, record temperatures at 15 minute intervals
Run Gen Test diagnostic

⚠ The sequence can only be interrupted by manually stopping the genset using the STOP switch.

  1. Verify the location is safe for running the genset and that its installation is completed.
  2. Navigate to the display that says ENTER to Run Gen and press ENTER.
  3. The EC-30 goes through a complete start and stop sequence and displays results as the test happens.
  4. When the test is complete the display says Gen Ok ENTER; press ENTER to exit back to ENTER to Run Gen.
Test Procedure diagnostic

⚠ Disable AGS by disconnecting battery or genset remote harness before servicing.

  1. Reconnect the genset negative (-) battery cable.
  2. Insert the fuse in the fuse holders for Wire #7 8-35VDC Power, Wire #8 House Battery Sense, and Wire #9 Engine Battery Sense.
  3. Refer to the Setting Up section and select the genset type.
  4. Set the hour-meter if the EC-30 is installed on an existing genset; skip this step on a new genset.
  5. Start and stop the genset using the Stop/Start switch located at the genset to confirm genset operation.
  6. Start the genset at the EC-30 and check the Start/Stop indicator light flashes while cranking (units with diagnostics only).
  7. Confirm the genset starts and continues to run, and that the Start/Stop indicator light remains illuminated while running.
  8. Scroll to the Hour Meter display and confirm it is operating.
  9. Scroll to the Volt Meter display and confirm it is operating.
  10. Stop the genset at the controller and check that the genset stops, the indicator light turns off, and the Hour Meter stops.
  11. Use the TEST SYSTEM displays to sequentially test all inputs and outputs.
  12. Set the clock to the current local time.
Testing Shore AC Present diagnostic

⚠ Do not connect 120VAC or 240VAC line voltage to the EC-30! It will be damaged and will not be covered by warranty.

  1. Be sure the Shore AC is disconnected and do not do this test with the genset running.
  2. Navigate to the Shore AC Present display and press ENTER; the display says Turn On Shore AC.
  3. Plug the shore AC back in or turn the breaker on; the display changes to read AC Ok ENTER.
  4. Press ENTER to exit the test.
Troubleshooting the EC-30 diagnostic

⚠ Improper service or replacement of parts can result in severe personal injury, death, and/or equipment damage.

Tools: Voltmeter

  1. Determine if the genset operates correctly from the genset controls; if not, the problem is in the genset, not the EC-30.
  2. Confirm the correct connection diagram (Figures 5, 6 and 7) was used, then check EC-30 wiring connections.
  3. Confirm that the correct voltages are present on each terminal.
  4. Check all terminal connections on both ends of the wiring harness and confirm harness connectors are properly joined.
  5. Repeat the TEST SYSTEM procedure as described in the manual.
Verify the Safety Input diagnostic

⚠ If the safety input is not verified by day 30, AUTO GEN is disabled.

  1. Press the AUTO GEN key; the EC-30 requests verification of the SAFETY (IGNITION, PARK or BRAKE) input.
  2. Turn on or off the appropriate safety input signal (ignition, transmission position, park brake or trailer brake).
  3. Press ENTER only if the genset is in a safe location for automatic operation.
AC Power Output Connections - Wiring Methods installation

⚠ Improper wiring can cause fire or electric shock

  1. Have a qualified electrician supervise and inspect all AC wiring installation
  2. Secure only one lead at each AC output terminal (terminals suitable up to No. 6 AWG)
  3. Install vibration-proof switches and controls
  4. Use rain-tight conduit, conduit connectors and junction boxes for exterior wiring
  5. Provide GFCIs for all convenience power receptacles
  6. Route AC wiring, remote control wiring, and fuel lines separately
  7. Seal all conduit openings into vehicle interior with silicone rubber or equivalent sealant
  8. Connect grounding terminal TB2-4 per applicable codes
