4. Follow the controller instructions to step to the
voltage gain adjustment menu. Adjust the voltage
gain (parameter 2P) until the light flicker minimizes.
Save the settings.
5. Check and readjust the voltage if necessary.
6. Set the voltmeter to measure frequency. Adjust the
engine speed to the cut-in frequency shown in
Figure 6-13 by adjusting the engine governor
speed (parameter 4P) through the ADC controller.
See Section 4.5.

7. Set the voltmeter to measure voltage. Adjust the
volts/Hz (parameter 3P) until the voltage level
measured by the voltmeter begins to drop. When
set, the generator (as load is applied) attempts to
maintain normal output until the engine speed
drops below the cut-in frequency set in step 6.

engine speed to the operating frequency (50 or
60 Hz) by adjusting the engine governor speed
