  • Page 30: Engine Controller Description

    Engine Controller Description When a fault circuit is programmed as a SHUTDOWN, the engine will immediately stop when the fault is activated. A specific shutdown fault can be programmed with a definite time transient delay period that must expire before the shutdown is activated. The stop sequence will cause the controllers RUN output to be immediately terminated which will cause the engine to stop.
