PowerCommand® 2100 digital generator set control

Description
The PowerCommand 2100 Control is a microprocessorbased generator set monitoring, metering and control system. The control provides an operator interface to the genset, digital voltage regulation, digital governing and generator set protective functions. The integration of all the functions into a single control system providesenhanced reliability and performance compared to conventional control systems. The PowerCommand control is designed for mounting on the generator set and is suitable for use on a wide range of generator sets in non-paralleling applications. The PowerCommand Control will directly read AC voltages up to 600 VAC and can be configured for any frequency, voltage and power connection configuration from 120to 600 VAC. The control offers a wide range of standard control and digital display features so custom control configurations are not needed to meet application specifications. System reliability is not compromised by use of untested special components. Power for PowerCommand Control is usually derived from the generator set starting batteries. It functions without degradation in performance over avoltage range from 8 VDC to 35 VDC.

Operator panel
The operator panel provides the user with a complete package of easy to view and use information. Connections to the operator panel are locking pluginterfaces for reliable, vibration-resistant interconnection to the generator set wiring harness.

The operator panel includes a series of LED indicating lamps to allow the operator to view the general status of the generator set. Functions displayed include: Green lamps to indicate generator set running (operating at rated voltage and frequency); remote start signal received. Red (flashing) lamp toindicate not-in-auto mode and a red lamp to indicate common shutdown. Amber lamp for common warning. Lamps (5) are configurable for color and function. These lamps are configured with InPower for any condition monitored by the control. Default configuration for these lamps include the following functions: - Low oil pressure warning - High engine temperature warning - Low oil pressure shutdown -...
