Fault Text
Description
ErraticSig
The power metering on this controller gives a signal
that is not consistent with the system configuration.
Reversing the power direction does not resolve the
problem.
LossOfComAPM
The Automatic Paralleling Module has stopped
communicating on RBUS. (An APM was detected on
the RBUS network but is no longer communicating.)
LossOfComm2
The primary controller has lost communication with the
secondary controller. (A secondary controller was
detected, then communication was lost.)
LossOfField
This generator has absorbed more than 25% reactive
power (magnetic excitation current) for 20 seconds
MeteringOk
The generator has verified that the metering is
connected correctly and that the direction is consistent
with expected power direction.
MeterUnknown
This generator does not know if the metering is
connected or the orientation of the connection. This
means that the generators can't share load accurately
until this information is known.
NoCurrent
The generator has applied load (using the other
generator) and has observed no current on the power
sensing inputs.
SyncFailure
The generator has been attempting to synchronize for
over 2 minutes without success.
* For paralleling system troubleshooting and service, contact an authorized distributor or dealer.

Description
This generator has been stopped by generator management because it is not
presently needed to supply the load. The generator is available and will start if it is
needed again.
The contactor has been forced to open to protect one of the generators or the
customer's load.
The generator is actively trying to match frequency, voltage and phase with that of the
paralleling bus.
The generator is actively trying to transfer load from itself to the other generator.
Possible Causes *
Bad wiring to the CT.
Too much tension on wires from the CT to
the controller.
APM is unplugged.
Primary controller is powered down.
Check the battery connections. See
previous page for more information.
Intermittent connections on RBUS network
wiring. Check RBUS communication
connections.
RBUS disconnected, secondary controller
battery disconnected, updating firmware in
secondary controller, or intermittent RBUS
connections.
Generator voltage on this generator is not
calibrated correctly.
Generator voltage on other generator is
not calibrated correctly.
Bus voltage on this generator is not
calibrated correctly.
Bus voltage on the other generator is not
calibrated correctly.
Status message indicates that the CT is
connected to the generator correctly.
System commissioning and startup not yet
complete. See the APM instructions.
The CT is not connected to the controller.
The output leads from the generator do
not go through the CT in the correct
direction. See the APM instructions.
Generator is hunting.
Advanced speed control settings need
adjustment.
Load is changing frequently to disturb the
online generator.
