More remote control panels (slave panels) can be put in
parallel by using the modular connectors on the back of
the units. As a slave one can use the same panel offering
all functions again. It is also possible to use an old or new
type slave panel only to start and stop the generator.
Old type remote panels and system panels can be
connected by means of the green connector.
Pay attention to the colour codes as indicated in fig. 17
when fitting cable to the green connector. Some software
versions in old system panels (supplied before may 2004)
could conflict with the software in the DDC and an up-date
of the software of the system panel could be necessary.
When this is the case consult to the Whisper Power
service department for advice.
When using the factory settings, installation is very simple:
just plug the remote cable into the remote and the
generator is ready to use. Refer to fig. 17.

Acoustic alarm or warning lamp
One can connect an external max.150 mA relay to
generate an acoustic warning or applying a warning lamp
etc. Be aware of polarity as some relays has a diode
inside and should be connected plus to plus en minus to
minus as indicated.
Automatic start/stop
Whisper Power cannot be held responsible
for damage caused by unattended running.
of the generator due to the use of
automatic start/stop.
Using automatic start/stop the generator
can start unexpectedly. When working on
the electrical system, the 30 Amp fuse
EN / M-SC3.5 / September 2010
must be removed from the Local Control
Panel and the battery plus cable must be
removed from the battery.
The Whisper Power Digital Diesel Control system offers
several options for automatic starting and stopping.
Access to this menu and other menus could be blocked.
For blocking and setting up this options refer to the
APPENDIX of the DDC users manual.
One of these options is to monitor a second battery (Not
being
the
starter
battery)
automatically when the voltage of this battery drops below
a certain setting. Other names for this second battery are
"auxiliary battery", "service battery", "users battery" or
"consumers battery". We will refer to this battery as "the
second battery"(BAT2). In some menus the starter battery
could be indicated as "the first battery" (BAT1).
A sense wire to monitor the second battery should be
connected (Attention polarity!) to the connector on the
back of the remote panel. Refer to fig. 12. The sense wires
must be connected directly on the second battery before a
main switch and be protected by a 3 Amps fuse.
(Monitoring the generator starter battery does not require
an extra sense connection)
Settings
When one want to apply other settings than the factory
settings refer to the DDC users manual, especially to the
APPENDIX.
Connection of an emergency stop / fire alarm switch
To connect an emergency stop button or to stop the
generator automatically in case of a fire alarm, you can
use the bypass connection between wires 13 and 14 that
come from the The Digital Diesel Control Panel. See fig.
19. To do so, remove the top cover plate of the
connection box to get access to the wiring loom.
Figure 18: Location of the connection box
Disconnect the bypass between wires 13 and 14 and then
replace it by an emergency switch or a potential free fire
alarm switch with normally closed contacts (figure 19).
