General guidelines
What is described in this manual?
This manual describes MINT software configuration. The software configuration is designed for multiple
sets applications with InteliGen internal load sharer and synchronizer (IG-PCLSM interface).
What is the purpoase of this manual?
This manual provides general information on how to install and operate the InteliGen controller.
This manual is intended for use by:
Operators of gen-sets
Gen-set control panel builders
For everybody who is concerned with installation, operation and maintenance of the gen-set

!! Warnings !!
Remote control
InteliGen controller can be remotely controlled. In the event that maintenance needs to be done to the genset, check the following to ensure that the engine cannot be started.
To be sure:
Disconnect remote control via RS232 line
Disconnect input REMOTE START/STOP
or
Disconnect output STARTER and output GCB CLOSE/OPEN
The InteliGen contains a large number of configurable setpoints, because of this it is impossible to describe
all applications. InteliGens functions are subject to change from SW version to SW version. This manual only
describes the product and is not guaranteed to be set for your application on arrival.

WARNING VERY IMPORTANT !!!

Be aware that the binary outputs can change state during and after software
reprogramming (before the controller is used again ensure that the proper
configuration and setpoint settings are set in the controller)!!!
Be aware that gen-set can automatically or remotely start !!!
Switch InteliGen to MAN mode and disconnect the Binary outputs Starter and Fuel to
avoid unexpected automatic start of genset and GCB closing .

!!! CAUTION !!!


Dangerous voltage
The terminals for voltage and current measurement should never be touched.
Properly connect the grounding terminals.
Do not disconnect the InteliGens CT terminals for any reason.

Adjust set points


All parameters are preadjusted to their typical values. But the set points in the Basic settings settings
group !!must!! be adjusted before the first startup of the gen-set.
!!! WRONG ADJUSTMENT OF BASIC PARAMETERS
CAN DESTROY THE GEN-SET !!!
The following instructions are for qualified personnel only. To avoid personal injury do
not perform any action not specified in this User guide !!!

General description
Description of the controller system (with all options)
InteliGen IG-CU is a comprehensive AMF-controller for single and multiple generating sets operating in
stand-by or parallel modes. A modular construction allows upgrades to different levels of complexity in order
to provide the best solution for various customer applications. Optional synchronizer, isochronous load
sharer, Mains and Generator protections allows for a total integrated solution for Gen-sets in stand-by and
parallel modes with multiple engine support.
InteliGen controllers are equipped with a powerful graphic display showing icons, symbols and bar-graphs for
intuitive operation, which sets, together with high functionality, new standards in Gen-set controls.
The InteliGen automatically starts the gen-set, closes the Gen-set C.B. when all conditions are met, then
stops the engine on external signal or by pressing push buttons.
With upgrade kits, isolated parallel and parallel to Mains operation can be achieved. Forward and reverse
synchronizing, Mains protection including load surge, load and power factor control, earth fault protection are
the major functions provided. Interfacing to foreign synchronizers and load sharers is supported.
The key feature of InteliGen is its easy-to-use operation and installation. Predefined configurations for
typical applications are available as well as user-defined configurations for special applications.

Description
1) The system is started by the Uf relay or by the switch Parallel to mains required.
2) The Uf relay opens MCB after the mains fails. At the same time the Uf relay starts Power
management by closing of SYS START/STOP input, if the gen-sets had not run in parallel to mains
before.
3) When mains returns, Uf relay opens SYS START/STOP, and GCBs are opened.
4) Bus 3 phase voltage relay detects no voltage and with its time delay closes MCB
5) If the switch Parallel to mains required is closed, gen-sets are again synchronized to the bus.
6) To stop the gen-sets while running in parallel to mains open the switch Parallel to mains required.
7) While stopping in parallel to mains, active MCB FEEDBACK ensures gen-sets soft unload
8) PRIORITY SELECT selects the gen-set priority regardless of the Priority setpoint, if needed.
Hint:
Setpoint SysAMFstrt del is used for engines start delay after the mains fails. It is similar to setpoint
EmergStart del in Single Stand-by. If the input MCB FEEDBACK is active, the delay is 1s.
Setpoint SysAMFstp del is used for GCB opening after the mains returns. It is similar to setpoint Mains Ret
del in Single Stand-by. If the input MCB FEEDBACK is active, the delay for unloading is 1s.

Getting started
How to install
General
To ensure proper function:
Use grounding terminals.
Wiring for binary inputs and analog inputs must not be run with power cables.
Analog and binary inputs should use shielded cables, especially when length >3m.

Power supply
To ensure proper function:
Use min. power supply cable of 1.5mm2
Power supply of IG-PCLSM module should be directly connected to IG-CU.
Maximum continuous DC power supply voltage is 36VDC. Maximum allowable power supply voltage is
39VCD. The InteliGen power supply terminal is protected against large pulse power disturbances. When
there is a potential risk of the controller being subjected to conditions outside its capabilities, an outside
protection devise should be used.
Hint:
The InteliGen controller should be grounded properly in order to protect against lighting strikes!!
The maximum allowable current through the controllers negative terminal is 4A (this is dependent on binary
output load).
Sometimes can occur starting problems due to low capacity (low temperature) 12VDC starting battery even if
the controller power supply voltage range is from 8 VDC.
In this case connect external capacitor + separating diode or I-LBA - Low Battery Adaptor module to allow
the controller to continue operation during engine cranking.

The 5 000 micro Farad capacitor ensures the 50ms


voltage dip under following conditions:
Voltage before dip is 12V and after 50ms the voltage
recovers to min. controller allowed voltage, i.e. 8V.
The capacitor size depends on required time, i.e. for
100ms dip 10 000 micro Farad is needed for the
same conditions.

12VDC Battery
The I-LBA module ensures the 100ms voltage dip
under following conditions:
Voltage before dip is 12V and after 100ms the
voltage recovers to min. allowed voltage 5V,
IG-PCLSM and IG-COM modules are connected to
IG (modules disconnecting increases voltage dip up
to 200ms).
The I-LBA enables controller operation from 5VDC
(for 10 to 30 sec).
The wiring resistance from battery should be up to
0.1 Ohm for I-LBA proper function.

Power supply fusing


A one-amp fuse should be connected in-line with the battery positive terminal to the controller and modules.
These items should never be connected directly to the starting battery.
Fuse value and type depends on number of connected devices and wire length.
Recommended fuse (not fast) type - T1A. Not fast due to internal capacitors charging during power up.

Binary output protections


Do not connect binary outputs directly to DC relays without protection diodes, even if they are not connected
directly to controller outputs.

Grounding
To ensure proper function:

Magnetic Pick-Up
GAC Speed Control Unit
Signal
Power Supply
Battery
Be aware of interference signal from Speed governor when one speed pick-up is used.
If engine will not start:
- check ground connection from pick-up to controllers, eventually disconnect ground connection to one
of them
- galvanically separate InteliGen RPM input using ComAp separation transformer RPM-ISO (1:1)
- use separate pick-up for Speed governor and InteliGen
Controller indicates "Sd Underspeed" + "Pickup fault" after engine start when the pickup signal is good for
start and low speed but too big for higher speed (lost of signal due to RPM input saturation).
Increase gap between pickup and engine flywheel or change type of pickup.
Hint:
In some cases the controller will measure a RPM value even though the gen-set is not running:
RPM is measured from the generator voltage (Gear teeth = 0)

IG is measuring some voltage value on input terminals due to open fusing.


If RPM > 0 the controller will be put into a Not ready state and the engine will not be allowed to start.

Hint:

Mains / bus voltage neutral must be connected to the generator voltage N terminal.

Mains and gen-set neutral separation


If required mains and gen-set neutral separation (four pole breakers) IG-MTU have to be added between
mains and controller terminals.
IG-MTU-C is separation transformers unit with additional filter for controller voltage measuring. It is used like
IG-MTU in special cases of extreme distortion of generator voltage by higher harmonics due to inverters etc..

IG MTU
Connect one or two IG-MTU or MTU-C units to separe generator and mains voltage from controller. IG-MTUC is usually connected to Vg terminals to protect against higher voltage harmonics.

Inputs and outputs


Hint:
Any Binary input or output can be configured to any IG-CU controller or IG-IOM, IGS-PTM terminal or
changed to different function by WinEdit software. There is fixed 1 sec delay when any binary input is
configured as protection.
Note that Binary inputs and outputs configured on IG-CU (and IG-PC(LS)M ) have much faster response
against IG-IOM, IGS-PTM. It is recommended to configure function inputs like Emergency stop, GCB
feedback, MCB feedback and others exclusively to IG-CU.

Binary inputs IGCU + IG-PCLSM

default

Hint:
When remove IG-PCLSM module from IG-CU configured binary IG-PCLSM alarms are not active.
There is no indication of disconnected IG-PCLSM module.

Binary inputs IG-IOM, IGS-PTM default

Hint:
Before connection of IG-IOM or IGS-PTM use +IOM aig archive. Use WinEdit to configure these binary
inputs. Any binary input can be configured as a warning, unload, slow stop, shutdown see chapter Alarm
Management.
WARNING: When the data cable between the IG-CU and the IG-IOM, IGS-PTM is disconnected, a SD alarm
is activated. IG-IOM, IGS-PTM power supply LED blinks when the data bus is dead between the IG-IOM,
IGS-PTM and IG-CU.

GCB feedback
Use this input to detect, whether the generator circuit breaker is open or closed.
If the feedback is not used, connect this input to the output GCB CLOSE/OPEN

MCB feedback
Use this input for indication, whether the mains circuit breaker is open or closed.
This input indicate, whether the gen-sets group operates in parallel to mains (MCB FEEDBACK is closed) or
parallel isolated (MCB FEEDBACK is open) .
Hint:
MCB feedback must be connected to all controllers operating in Power management group when operating
in parallel to the mains.

Emergency stop
Input immediately activates the engine shut down. Emergency stop is not blocked by Sprinkler function
see below. Emergency stop is indicated in Alarm list and is recorded in History. When Emergency stop is
activated the Binary outputs:
- Fuel solenoid, Ignition and GCB close/open opens,
- Binary output Stop solenoid closes.
Hint:
From safety reasons (broken wire) is recommended to configure Emergency stop as Open to activate.
The Emergency stop input should not stop the engine in the case of controller fail. In such case can the
second Emergency stop button contact e.g. disconnect the Fuel solenoid or Speed governor supply (or
activate Stop solenoid, etc..).

Access lock
If the input is closed, no setpoints can be adjusted from controller front panel and gen-set mode (OFF-MANAUT-TEST) cannot be changed.
Hint:
Access lock does not protect setpoints and mode changing from WinEdit. To avoid unqualified changes the
selected setpoints, use password protection.

Sys start/stop
If the input closes InteliGen starts the Pwr management (in AUT mode only).
If the input opens, InteliGen inactivates Pwr management process and stops the gen-set.

Remote OFF
If closed, iG is in OFF mode (there are three modes OFF-MAN-AUT). When opened, controller is switched
back to previous mode.
Hint:
Remote OFF will switch controller to OFF mode even if the Access code is active or Controller mode is
password protected.
Binary input can be connected to timer switch, to avoid start of engine.

Load reserve 2
If the input LOAD RESERVE 2 is closed the setpoints LoadRes strt 2, LoadRes stp 2 will be selected.

Load reserve 3
If the input LOAD RESERVE 3 is closed the setpoint LoadRes strt 3, LoadRes stp 3 will be selected.

Load reserve 4
If the input LOAD RESERVE 4 is closed the setpoint LoadRes strt 4, LoadRes stp 4 will be selected.
Hint:
When more than one Load reserve binary inputs are closed, the higher number has higher priority.
All controllers operating in Power management group have to selected the same Load reserves.

MinRun power 1 (Minimal running power 1)


MinRun power 2 (Minimal running power 2)
MinRun power 3 (Minimal running power 3)
When binary input MinRun power 1 or 2 or 3 is closed the corresponding setpoints MinRun power 1 or 2 or 3
is selected. Higher index has higher priority when more binary inputs is closed. When not configured or not
active, minimal running power is 0.

Priority 0
If the input is closed, the gen-set has the highest priority (Priority =0) in Power management regardless of
the value of the setpoint Priority.

PrioritySwtch1 (Priority switch 1)


PrioritySwtch2 (Priority switch 2)
PrioritySwtch3 (Priority switch 3)
PrioritySwtch4 (Priority switch 4)
Binary inputs for external genset priority selection. Priority selection is important in Power management.
Higher Priority gensets starts sooner.
The range from of Priority setting is 1 to 15.

Man load recon (Manual load reconnection)


Rising edge on MAN LOAD RECON input resets IG controller to the lower step of Load shedding when
AutoLd recon = DISABLED and
Generator actual load is under Ld Recon level.
Ld recon del is not important in manual reconnection by binary input .
Principle of Load shedding is described in the chapter Function description Load shedding.

Start button
Binary input has the same function as Start button on the InteliGen front panel. It is active in MAN mode
only.

Stop button
Binary input has the same function as Stop button on the InteliGen front panel. It is active in MAN mode only.

FaultResButton
Binary input has the same function as Fault reset button on the InteliGen front panel.

HornResButton
Binary input has the same function as Horn reset button on the InteliGen front panel.

Gen CB button
Binary input has the same function as GCB button on the InteliGen front panel. It is active in MAN mode
only.

Remote MAN
When closed Controller is switched to MAN Mode. When opened controller is switched to previous mode.

RemControl lock
Locks command writing and setpoint changing from all remote terminals.

GCB disable
Active input blocks in AUT (not in MAN) mode closing GCB.

ForwSyncDisab
Active input blocks forward GCB synchronizing.

Oil press
Behavior for Inverted = Open to activate configuration:
Binary input must be closed when engine is not running and opened when is running. "Sd Oil press B" is
activated when input is opened on not running engine or when stays closed Engine params: Protection del
after engine start.
"Sd Oil press B" protection is not active when input is not configured.

Emerg. manual
The controller behaves like when switched to OFF mode if input is closed. Opens all binary outputs Fuel
solenoid, Cooling pump signals, etc... except:
Stop solenoid output does not close.
Detection of "running" engine and subsequent alarm message "Sd Stop fail" is blocked.
The controller shows "Emerg Man" state and the engine can not be started.
Generator current and power (energy) measurement is active in this mode, regardless of actual state of the
engine.
After the binary input "Emerg. manual" is open again, the controller recovers to previous mode
and behaves according to the actual situation (e.g. should the engine run, it tries to stop it).
Function is active in any controller mode and activation of this input is written to history.

Binary outputs IG-CU+IG-PCLSM default

Hint:
Maximal inductive load of contact relay outputs BO1 and BO2 is 4 Amps. Use external relays for higher load.

Binary outputs IG-IOM, IGS-PTM

Hint:
Before connection of IG-IOM or IGS-PTM use +IOM aig archive. Use WinEdit to configure these binary
outputs.
WARNING: When the data cable between the IG-CU and the IG-IOM, IGS-PTM is disconnected, IG-IOM,
IGS-PTM alarms are not active, only common IOM alarm appears.

Hint:
If the engine After cooling function is needed the binary output COOLING PUMP should be configured.

Stop time

[s]

Stop time value means the minimum time for which Stop solenoid will be closed. If the engine stopping
procedure will take longer time, the Stop solenoid stays closed until all signs of moving engine have
disappeared (RPM, Vg, fg) + 5 seconds more to have some safety overlap. After Stop time has elapsed and
the engine is still moving, the alarm "Sd Stop fail" is produced. However, this is not a normal situation and
should be solved by increasing the Stop time setpoint.
The StopValve" countdown timer will be displayed on IG screen.

controllers.
The first character of all replicated setpoint names is #. It is visible on InteliGen screen and in WinEdit.

Pwr management (ENABLED / DISABLED / EXTERNAL) [-]


DISABLED: Each engine starts / stops when Binary input Sys start/stop is closed / opened independent on
other gen-sets. CAN bus line is necessary for VAR sharing.
ENABLED: Gen-sets operate in Pwr management. Binary input Sys start/stop the engine to take place in
power management.
EXTERNAL : Same as ENABLED, but pwr management values(Priority, number of currently active
Reserve, number of currently active MinRunPower) are controlled externally via CAN bus.

Load Shedding
The load shedding function is available in all applications SPM, SSB, SPtM, MINT, MEXT and is active in all
iG modes except OFF.
Load shedding has three steps and each step is linked with its own LOAD SHED digital output. There is only
one load shed level and delay for all three steps as well as recon level and delay. Load shed can only move
from one step to the next, e.g. No LoadShed to LdShed S1 to LdShed S2 to LdShed S3 and vise versa.
If manual reconnection of the load is desired the AutoLd recon setpoint needs to be disabled and the MAN
LOAD RECON digital input needs to be configured.
Digital input MAN LOAD RECON resets iG to lower stage of load shed only if the load is under Ld Recon
Level.
All LOAD SHED outputs are activated (closed) to trip unessential load before genset goes to island (MCB
opens) from parallel to mains:
a) After Mains fail before genset starts to island in AUT mode.
b) Before MCB is opened in MAN mode by button.

Steps of InteliGen MINT set points adjustment


Following chapters contain recommended procedure of InteliGen MINT set points set up. At first refer to
InteliGen - MINT Users guide, chapters Sync/load and Volt/PF set points.
The first step is speed and AVR loop sensitivity adjusting.
The second step is InteliGen - MINT set points adjusting.

1. IG-PCLSM Speed governor output


Hint:
No droop Speed governor is expected for controller connection.
Two wire shielded connection from IG-PCLSM SPEED GOVERNOR output (GND, Volt or VoltR) to
Speed governor auxiliary input is recommended.
IG-PCLSM SPEED GOVERNOR output sensitivity should 10V to 5% of Nominal generator frequency
(see drawing below).
IMPORTATNT
Speed governor has to be adjusted for optimum performance before controller Sync / load control
adjusting.
Check generator phase sequence before the first GCB connection.
Example of Speed governor out sensitivity:

Genset RPM
-10 V
1425 RPM

1500 RPM = Nominal
10 V
1575 RPM

Check Speed gov bias when genset is idle running.


When is speed characteristic negative (increasing Speed gov bias decreases RPM) set

When is speed characteristic negative (increasing Speed gov bias decreases RPM) set

To decrease Speed governor out sensitivity use IG-PCLSM VoutR output and connect external
resistor R2 in parallel to output.
VoutR output voltage is in this case R2 / (R1+R2) = 1 / 11 = 0.09 times off Vout voltage.

Each genset in the group should have the same speed governor out sensitivity. Speed governor
characteristics difference unbalances Load sharing during synchronizing of loaded gensets group to
the mains.

2. IG-PCLSM AVRi output


Hint:
No droop AVR unit is expected for standard controller connection.
IG-AVRi-TRANS (AC power supply for AVRi) have to be supplied from gen-set voltage.
AVRi outputs can be connected: OUT1-OUT2 or unsymmetrical OUT1-GND or OUT2-GND.
To check AVR DCout bias range set Voltage gain = 0.

Potentiometer on the AVRi defines maximal OUT1, OUT2 voltage range


When AVRi is connected to AVR auxiliary voltage input use OUT1,OUT2 AVRi outputs
When AVRi replaces AVR external potentiometer use unsymmetrical output.
AVRi output voltage should change generator voltage max in range 10 % of Nominal voltage.

Adjust AVR and AVRi to keep Nominal genset voltage at AVR DCout bias = 50%.
To decrease AVRi output voltage sensitivity turn AVRi trim ccw.
When the AVR characteristic is negative (increasing AVRi output decreases generator voltage) set
AVRChar = NEGATIVE (All AVR gain setpoints are positive).
Each genset should have the same AVRi out sensitivity. AVR characteristics difference unbalances PF
sharing during synchronizing of loaded gensets group to the mains.

3. Voltage control
Conditions: running single gen-set, analog Volt/PF control using IG-AVRi module.
Adjust Voltage control set points of each gen-set separately :
MINT - Volt/PF control: AVR DCout bias, Voltage gain, Voltage int, Voltage der.

Sensor specification
Sensor calibration
To correct measuring error of each analog input (pressure, temperature, level) calibrating constants within 10
% of measure range should be set. Three calibrating constants are set in physical units - C, %, psi, F, bar,
etc. From these constants equivalent calibrating resistances are calculated and are internally (in software)
added to the sensors resistance.
Once the calibration value is entered (enter is pressed) the calibrating resistance is calculated and saved in
memory. This value is then added to measured sensor resistance before the value is displayed.
Example: IG-CU display Temperature 70 C and real value is 73 C.
After setting Calibr AI1 to +3 C (and pressing ENTER) InteliGen calculates corresponding resistance
(e.g.5) and saves this value into the memory. The resistance is then added to all calculations (e.g. instead
of 70C -> 73C, or e.g. instead of 5C -> 6C).

Mode description
There are three modes of the gen-set: OFF - MAN - AUT.
To select the mode use MODE or MODE.

OFF mode
Outputs STARTER, GCB CLOSE/OPEN and FUEL SOLENOID are not energized. Genset cannot be started.
If START,STOP,GCB ON/OFF buttons is pressed the iG will not respond.

MAN mode
1) To start the gen-set press START.
2) When the generator voltage is within limits (adjusted in the setpoints group Generator protections)
generator GCB green LED on the front panel lights.
3) Press GCB ON/OFF to close the GCB. If the generator voltage is out of the limits, InteliGen does not to
respond to the GCB ON/OFF .
a) If InteliGen detects dead bus, immediately closes GCB OPEN/CLOSE output.
b) If InteliGen detects voltage (Voltage window) on the bus, starts synchronizing.
4) To stop the engine press STOP
a) InteliGen unloads the gen-set. When the gen-set load reaches GCB Open level, (but max. GCB
open del), iG opens GCB CLOSE/OPEN. Unloading is active only when binary input MCB feedback
is closed or other gen-set is connected to bus. In other case GCB CLOSE/OPEN opens immediately.
b) Gen-set is cooled and stopped.
Hint:
InteliGen does not respond to the binary input SYS START/STOP. The genset is permitted to run for an
unlimited amount of time.
InteliGen is disconnected from Power management
Load and power factor sharing in parallel isolated group are active only when Load sharing line and CAN bus
between all gen-sets are connected.

AUT mode
1) All gen-sets necessary to cover selected LoadRes strt are started
a) immediately when SYS START/STOP binary input is closed
b) delayed SysAMFstrt del when MCB FEEDBACK binary input is opened mains failure comes
2) The first gen-set closes GCB to the dead bus, the rest are synchronized to the bus.
a) If InteliGen detects dead bus, immediately closes GCB OPEN/CLOSE output.
b) If InteliGen detects voltage (Voltage window) on the bus, starts synchronizing.
2) When all necessary gen-sets are connected to the bus and LoadRes strt is achieved, SYST RES OK
output is closed. Output could be used to close the MGCB.
3) Gen-sets get loaded and total active and reactive load are shared between parallel operating gen-sets.
4) Close input LOAD RESERVE 2 (or 3 or 4) and use setpoint LoadRes strt, if necessary.
5) If load increases and selected LoadRes strt is not achieved, after a Next start del next gen-set with the
highest priority is started and synchronized to the bus.
6) If load decreases and selected LoadRes stp is exceeded, after a Next stop del the running gen-set with
the lowest priority is unloaded, got off line, cooled and stopped.
7) Gen-sets group stops when binary input SYS START/STOP opens. If the input MCB FEEDBACK is
closed (gen-sets are in parallel to mains) InteliGen unloads the gen-sets. When gen-set is unloaded
(see GCB open level or GCB open del) opens SYST RES OK and opens GCB CLOSE/OPEN.
Hint:
InteliGen does not respond to GCB ON/OFF
InteliGen does not respond to START and STOP
!!!!! VERY IMPORTANT !!!!!!

Engine can start automatically without warning when pressing FAULT RESET after shut down alarm
when Basic setting: FltRes GoToMAN is set to DISABLED..

Load surge protection


Load surge protection is fast Mains failure protection.
It detects sudden generator load changes during parallel operation with the mains. Due to Mains failure can
be generator immediately fully unloaded or heavy overloaded. Load surge protection in this case opens MCB
or GCB depends on controller application.
Load surge protection becomes active 3 sec delayed after entering to parallel (synchronizing).
Values visible on the iG screen and in WinEdit

Max load surge

[Pnom/s]

It is maximal value of Act load surge (maxi meter). When genset enters the parallel mode, the Max load
surge value is reseted to zero.
Hint:
Max load surge is visible on iG generator screen and in WinEdit.

Alarm management
Following alarms are available:
Binary alarms

Analog alarms

Hint:
The alarm can be configured for any IG-CU, IG-PCLSM and IG-IOM, IGS-PTM binary input.
When warning comes up it is displayed on the Alarm list screen and the selected entries are written to the
History record.
Detection of each binary input alarm is fix 1 sec time delayed.
Analog input Alarms have usually two levels - e.g. wrn and sd.
Use WinEdit to modify binary or analog inputs protections.
Sensor fail does not activate binary output common Alarm.

Sensor fail

(Fls)

A sensor fail on the analog input is detected when Analog input value is +6% or 6% out of range of
selected characteristic.

Warning
When warning comes up, only alarm outputs are closed.
Possible warnings:
Binary inputs configured as Warning (alarms are displayed and stored under configured name)
Analog inputs configured as Warning (alarms are displayed and stored under configured name)
Battery voltage alarm level

Shut down
When a shutdown occurs, InteliGen opens outputs GCB CLOSE/OPEN, FUEL SOLENOID, STARTER.
Possible shut-down alarms
Overspeed
Underspeed
Start fail
IG-IOM, IGS-PTM fail
Binary inputs configured as Shut down (alarms are displayed and stored under configured name)
Analog inputs configured as Shut down (alarms are displayed and stored under configured name)

Slow stop
When the slow stop alarm comes up InteliGen unloads gen-set, opens output GCB CLOSE/OPEN, waits for
Cooling time and opens FUEL SOLENOID output.

Voltage phase sequence detection


InteliGen controller detects phase sequence on both generator and mains/bus voltage terminals. This
protection is important after controller installation to avoid wrong voltage phases connection. Following
alarms can be detected:

Wrong phase sequence


There is fix defined phase sequence in InteliGen controller L1, L2, L3. When the phases are connected in
different order (e.g. L1,L3,L2 or L2,L1,L3) following alarms are detected:
G ph opposed = wrong generator phase sequence
B ph opposed = wrong bus phase sequence

Inverted phase polarity


inverted phase polarity can be detected due to wrong connection of separation transformers between
controller and generator / mains / bus voltage. Phase sequence is OK but some phase(s) is connected in
opposite way (180 shift).
Following alarms can be detected:
GEN L1 neg
= generator phase L1 is inverted
GEN L2 neg
= generator phase L2 is inverted
GEN L3 neg
= generator phase L3 is inverted
B L1 neg
= mains phase L1 is inverted
B L2 neg
= mains phase L2 is inverted
B L3 neg
= mains phase L3 is inverted

Wrong phase sequence and inverted polarity


It is combination of both previous alarms
G ph+L1 neg = wrong generator phase sequence and phase L1 is inverted
G ph+L2 neg = wrong generator phase sequence and phase L2 is inverted
G ph+L3 neg = wrong generator phase sequence and phase L3 is inverted
B ph+L1 neg = wrong mains phase sequence and phase L1 is inverted
B ph+L2 neg = wrong mains phase sequence and phase L2 is inverted
B ph+L3 neg = wrong mains phase sequence and phase L3 is inverted
Hint:
Phase sequence detection is active when voltage in all three phases is >50VAC and all phases angles are in
the range 120 20.
Phase sequence alarm detection is 1 sec delayed to avoid transient effects.
B (=BUS) alarms are detected in MINT, MEXT applications instead M. (=MAINS) alarms.

GCB, MCB fail detection


MCB or GCB fail detection is based on binary output CB close/open comparing with binary input CB
feedback.
There are three different time delays for CB fail detection see following diagrams.
When the BO GCB close/open (MCB close/open) in steady state and GCB feedback (MCB feedback) is
changed the GCB fail (MCB fail) is detected immediately (no delay).

Speed regulator and Volt regulator limit warning


There are two control loops in controller: Sync/Load control and Volt/PF control.
InteliGen MINT, SW version 6.2, ComAp August 2005
IG-MINT-MINT+IOM-6.2.PDF

111

During operation state it is detected when regulator output reached limit value i.e.:
When Speed governor output stays on +9,8V or -9,8V for more than 2 sec the warning SpdRegLim is
detected on the Alarm list.
When AVRi output stays on <2% or >98% for more than 2 sec the warning VoltRegLim is detected on the
Alarm list.
This warning indicates only (no other action) wrong connection or adjusting of control loop. Control loops
should operate within range.
Hint:
Corresponding warning is blocked when Binary outputs SPEED up,SPEED down or AVR up, AVR down are
configured.

Bus voltage error detection


Bus measure error is detected in MINT / MEXT application when:
Voltage on IG bus terminals is out of limits 20 seconds after:
a) GCB (own) was closed in MAN or AUT mode
b) MCB (feedback) was closed in AUT mode
c) Any other GCB in power management group (on CAN bus) was closed. The alarm is activated after
20 s, however the GCB (own) closing is blocked immediately from safety reasons.
Protection type is Unload, written to History and Alarm list.
Protection from reason: a), c)
must be confirmed by FAULT RESET button
Protection from any reason: a), b), c)
is recorded in Alarm list and History file - Unl BusMeasError message.

Setpoint replication management


All setpoints in the Power management group except: Priority have to be equal in every InteliGen connected
to the network. InteliGen has built in automatic replication procedure to ensure that.
Hint:
When group of InteliGens are not interconnected by CAN digital line, each gen-set operate separately.
In this case is recommended to adjust the equal setpoints in all InteliGens manually.

How to adjust setpoints


1) Switch on all InteliGens in the network
2) Select any InteliGen and adjust setpoints in the ProcessControl group or in Power management group
3) Replication management immediately updates modified setpoint in each InteliGen in the network
(except Priority)
4) Any new powered InteliGen automatically updates all setpoints from InteliGen with lowest Controller Adr
number.

Setpoints consistency
Any changes of following setpoints in the ProcessControl group and in Power management group
(except Priority) done in one InteliGen are automatically replicated in all other connecting InteliGens.

Remote control and data logging


Direct connection to the PC
InteliGen can be connected directly with PC via RS232 interface.
Use the standard cable RS232 cable to connect PC with InteliGen.
Hint:
Make sure the grounding system on controller and PC COM port (negative of the PC DC supply) are
identical before the first direct connection. There must not be any voltage between these two points
otherwise the internal resistor in controller burns out. The simple solution is to assure, that the PC supply
240/20V is ground free (GND terminal is not connected).

Remote and mobile communication


Modbus protocol

Direct connection: RS232, RS422, RS485


Modem connection
9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity
Transfer mode RTU
Function 3 (Read Multiply Registers)
Function 6 (Write Single Register)
Function 16 (Write Multiply Registers)
The response to an incoming message is sent with minimum 4.096 ms delay after message reception

The complete description of Modbus communication protocol can be found in Modbus Protocol Reference
Guide PI-MBUS-300 and Open Modbus Specification Release 1.0. Both documents are available from web
site at http://www.modicon.com/openmbus/ .

Communication object vs. Register


All the data intended for communication has its representation as communication objects in the controller.
The communication object is represented by the n-byte array in the controller memory and identified by the
unique 16-bit communication object number. The register, according to Modbus communication protocol,
represents a two-byte data and in communication functions is referenced by 16-bit register address. Further
in the description of communication functions the communication object number will always be used as
a register address and length of the communication object will be expressed by number of registers. Just
one communication object can be read or written by one communication function.
Hint:
It is possible to download the Actual IG or IS controller description from on-line controller or from (aig or ais)
archive. Use ..\ Program files \ ComAp \ WinEdit \ Tools \ Cfg_img \ Cfg_img.exe software.

IG-MU modbus communication


Modbus protocol communication is supported from IG-MU SW version 1.9. In this case is necessary to use
IG SW version at least 5.2 or IS SW V 2.2.
Place Modbus jumper in unit before IG-MU Modbus communication.

Hint:
Any Modem goes to init procedure in following cases
- after controller reset (when modem is already connected)
- whenever is modem connected to controller
- each 20 minutes when is no connection
- when connection is closed
- when data transmit error occurs

GSM Modem setup


Prior to start work with GSM modem run following program for GSM proper setup.
Program writes all the necessary AT commands to configure the GSM modem properly for use with IG-CU or
IS-CU.
This program runs independent on WinEdit:
Start MS Windows-Start-Program files - WinEdit Gm_setup.exe.
Select COM port
Select IG-CU (=IS-CU) or IG-MU unit
Press Setup button
Follow commands in GSM Modem Setup window
Hint:
It is strongly recommended to use the same type of modem on the both sides (IG and PC) of connection.

SIM card setting


Adjust SIM card on GSM modem in the following way:
Enable data communication (it could be done by your local GSM operator),
Set phone number SMS service center SC (recommended in international format in case of
roaming),
Set no PIN code required.
Hint:
All SMS on SIM card will be erased during GSM modem initialization. Valid SMS on SIM card will be served
except adjusting and gen-set control command.
Both SIM cards must have DATA setting when communication from controller to PC via two GSM modems.

How to check SIM card DATA setting

Move SIM card from controller GSM modem to Mobile phone.


Call from WinEdit to this Mobile phone and check (on Mobil phone) DATA call indication of incoming
call.
If phone does not indicate DATA - solve this with your GSM operator.

SMS commands
Are not available from IG sw version 6.0.

Active SMS message


Active SMS message is invoked by controller request. Active SMS message is sending to GSM phone
number specified in setpoints group Act. Calls/SMS on InteliGen/InteliSys. Specified phone number must
be in international format +cccyyyxxxxxx where ccc is country code, yyy is operator prefix and xxxxxx is local
phone number. Active message contains items of actual Alarm list (most eight items).

Example of active SMS message:


#Gensetname:AL=(WrnPrimWatertemp,!Emergencystop)

Modbus protocol
There are three possibility of Modbus connection to InteliGen / InteliSys via IG-MU direct via RS232,
RS485/422 or via modem. Modbus protocol on IG-MU must be activated by switch P2.

IG-IB Internet communication


IG-IB Internet bridge is interface for Internet communication between one or more controllers and PC.
Internet Bridge be can currently connected to internet only via via LAN (Ethernet connector). In future it will
be possible to use also Modem connection (wired line MODEM connector)
Hint:
Contact local IT manager in any case before using IG-IB.
Hint:
Do not use IG firmware older than 5.2 and IS firmware older than 2.2 for full functionality of internet
connection.
Hint:
Company LAN connected to the Internet is probably configured to enable access to the servers located on
the Internet, but to disable access in the reverse direction. If IG-IB has to be visible from the Internet, then
your LAN administrator should create a communication channel on the Internet access server. The IG-IB
uses the TCP-communication and listen on the port 23 (known as Telnet port).

One controller - RS232/Ethernet connection


In this case no dongle is necessary.
One unit could be also connected via CAN interface.

InteliGen Low Temperature modification


LCD display limits controller operating temperature range to 20 oC - + 70 oC even if the other electronic
components work in wider temperature range.
Internal preheating foil is mounted in InteliGen LT to extend display operational temperature range.
Preheating starts at temperature below 5 oC and preheating power depends on temperature and power
supply voltage.
