Before you start
- Use settings which give load protection and yet will avoid nuisance load transfers.
Procedure
- Open the cabinet door.
- Move the operation selector switch to STOP.
- Turn the PICK-UP VOLTAGE knob to the desired pick-up voltage at which load is transferred from the normal power source to the generator set.
- Turn the DROP-OUT DIFFERENTIAL knob to the desired percent deviation below the pick-up voltage.
- Move the operation selector switch on the engine control to REMOTE for two-wire starting or to NORMAL for three-wire starting.
- Close the cabinet door.
Specs & values
- Example: 135 volts pick-up = 113 percent of nominal voltage for a 120-volt system
- Example: 5 percent drop-out differential from 135 volts = 7-volt differential; drop-out voltage 135 - 7 = 128 volts
