Starting The Generator Set; Stopping The Generator Set; Fault Shutdowns - Kohler 10ERG Operation Manual

2.4.2

Starting the Generator Set

The following procedures describe the actions required
to start the generator set.
Step Step
1 Fuel shut-off valve.
Open the manual fuel shut-off valve, if equipped.
2 Starting.
Place the generator set master switch in the RUN
position.
The controller attempts to start the generator set three
times. If the generator set does not start in three
attempts, the system shuts down on an overcrank fault.
Local Starting.
Move the generator set master switch to the RUN
position. The ADC 2100 attempts to start the generator
set in three crank cycles (crank cycle time is
pre-programmed).
Auto (Automatic) Starting.
Move the generator set master switch to the AUTO
position to allow startup by the ATS, remote start/stop
switch or remote digital gauge. A remote start/stop
switch or digital gauge can be connected to the
customer interface connection (P21 connector, leads
3 and 4). See the wiring diagram in Section 5.
Note: The ADC 2100 allows three crank cycle attempts
before the overcrank shutdown occurs.

Stopping the Generator Set

The following procedures describe the actions required
to stop the generator set.
Local Stopping
1. Run the generator set at no load for at least
2 minutes to ensure adequate engine cooldown.
2. Move the generator set master switch to the
OFF/RESET position. The engine stops.
2.4.4

Fault Shutdowns

The generator set shuts down automatically under the
fault conditions listed in Figure 2-4 and the controller
displays a fault code. The generator set cannot be
restarted until the fault condition is corrected and the
controller is reset. See Section 2.4.5 to reset the
controller after a fault shutdown. The controller resets
automatically after a battery voltage fault condition is
corrected.
Shutdown switches on the generator set automatically
reset when the problem is corrected. The high engine
temperature switch automatically resets when the
generator set cools. However, the fault does not clear
until the controller is reset.
The controller displays a fault code but the generator set
does not shut down under the conditions shown in
Figure 2-5.
