Do not touch the components or conductors on a printed circuit board with your hands or with conductive devices. To prevent damage to electronic components caused by improper handling, read and observe the precautions in Woodward manual 82715 , Guide for Handling and Protection of Electronic Controls, Printed Circuit Boards, and Modules.

Manual 91623 723PLUS Standard Generator Control LON Load Sharing Chapter 1. General Information Introduction The Woodward part numbers belonging to the “Standard Generator Control LON Load Sharing” are the following: System: 8280-1099 Hardware: 723PLUS Low Voltage: 9906-619 ...
DEBUG mode. Currently, this control feature is not used. Synchronizer Speed Bias (–5 V ~ +5 V) The synchronizer speed bias input is a bi-polar voltage input. The Woodward SPM-A synchronizer makes a suitable match for this control feature. The voltage will be scaled into a bi-polar speed bias (rpm), with a corresponding “Synchronizer Gain”...
Menus. Generator Load Input (4–20 mA) The Generator Load must be a real power measurement input. The Woodward RPS is a suitable choice for this control input. The generator load input is used extensively in the control for load sharing and droop operation.

LON communications are OK (not using the LSL) and the Base- Load contact is closed or both Raise & Lower Load are closed. The Load reference ramp will follow the Remote Base-Load setpoint input until either the Unload setpoint is reached or any of the Load-Limits have been reached. Woodward...
Load-Sharing Control (LSL) For downward compatibility with legacy Woodward controls, one can configure this control to operate in load sharing mode using the Woodward Load Sharing Lines (LSL). The LSL's shall be daisy chained from each engine control to an other.
When the start-sequence is initiated, a startup timer is started. When this timer expires, the speed override is removed from both speed sensors. When speed is still below the minimum speed threshold, a major alarm will shutdown the engine, indicating this startup attempt has failed. Woodward...
The Load limiter input is not a true fuel limiter, since it does not operate on the LSS bus directly. It limits the Load reference ramp, and therefore is only active in Load control mode. There is also a Load limiter setpoint, adjustable from the SERVICE Menu. Woodward...
For each Dynamic Set, The P, I and S_D_R can be setup as: a single figure, or a 6 point Curve based on Load input [%], or a 6 point Curve based on Actuator output [%], a 6 point Curve based on Speed input [%] Woodward...

There are also a few dynamic parameters for the Load Control, which allows adjusting the system stability, and the balance between speed & load control. The speed control PID operates with a “normalized” speed error (error is divided by RATED speed), typically resulting in higher P gains. Woodward...
ID#11 = 3 ID#15 = 0 ID#4 = 1 ID#8 = 0 ID#12 = 0 ID#16 = 0 All engine controls must have the same system bus segment definition in order for the LON Load Sharing to work properly. Woodward...
If engines need to be taken out for a longer time, we advise changing the Node ID & bus segment configuration. This has to be changed and kept the same for each 723PLUS control in the LON network. Woodward...
