DCP-10 10. Preparation before Starting the Controller 10.1 Make sure the controller is correctly installed to meet the ambient requirements. 10.2 Confirm all wiring connections of the controller meet the correct electric specification and corresponding to “2.3 typical wiring diagram”. Ensure the correct polarity of the DC supply source and that it has been protected by an external fuse. -

Questions and answers
Why is fg Wilson P200-3 starter motor not engaging when the start button is pressed
The FG Wilson P200-3 starter motor may not be engaging when the start button is pressed due to one or more of the following reasons:
1. Generator frequency or voltage already at preset crank cutout value – The controller will not initiate the crank procedure if the generator’s frequency reaches the preset crank cutout value or if the generator’s voltage is high enough to trigger the crank cutout.
2. LOP (Low Oil Pressure) switch is open – If the LOP switch is open, the controller will block the crank procedure.
3. Crank cutout conditions already met – The starter motor powers off if:
- Generator voltage reaches 80% of rated voltage.
- Cranking time has expired.
- Oil pressure is higher than the crank cutout value.
- Cutout P-delay time has expired.
4. Remote start signal is inactive or deactivated during cranking or idle – The controller stops the start procedure and returns to standby if the remote start signal is not active.
5. Generator voltage is too low to be sensed – If the generator voltage is below the measurable value of the controller, crank cutout may not be detected properly, preventing cranking to avoid damage.
These conditions must be checked and resolved to allow proper starter motor engagement.

I re oiled the generator, changed oil filter and DCP-10 display. still is shutting down after preheating time finishes? The oil level is good now what should i do to stop it from shutting down?
To stop the FG Wilson generator with DCP-10 from shutting down after preheating, ensure that no critical alarms or shutdown conditions are active. Pre-alarms do not shut down the generator, but shutdowns occur if the controller detects voltage, frequency, or oil pressure above preset values after the stop delay. After re-oiling and changing the oil filter, reset the controller to clear any previous failure. Also, verify that oil pressure, voltage, and frequency are within acceptable limits. If a stop failure occurred earlier, the controller must be reset before it will allow starting again.

I try to start a 60 kva generator with DCP 10 but it will not start, but bypass the DCP 10 and start direct from the Kickstarter and the engine started, what could have happened. But the code it shows is the failed to start . What do i do.
A FG Wilson 60 kVA generator with a DCP-10 controller may fail to start when using the Kickstarter due to several possible reasons:
1. Fuel Relay Not Energizing – If the fuel relay does not energize, the fuel solenoid will not operate, preventing fuel flow to the engine.
2. Start Relay Not Activating – If the start relay does not energize after the 300ms delay, the starter motor will not engage to crank the engine.
3. Crank Cutout RPM Not Reached – If the engine does not reach the required crank cutout RPM, the start relay will not de-energize, and the engine may fail to start.
4. Controller Not in Manual Mode – The generator must be in "MANUAL" mode for the Kickstarter to initiate the start sequence.
5. Safety-On Delay Failure – If the safety-on delay does not time out properly or detects an issue, the controller may prevent the engine from running.
6. Battery or Electrical Connection Issues – A weak or disconnected battery could prevent the starter motor from engaging.
7. Stop Failure Condition – If a previous stop failure has not been resolved and the controller has not been reset, the crank relay output will not energize.
Checking these factors can help diagnose the issue and restore normal starting operation.

I try to start a 60 kva generator with DCP 10 but it doesn't start but bypass the DCP and start direct from the kick starter and the generator start.
The FG Wilson 60 kVA generator may not start with the DCP-10 for several reasons based on the provided context:
1. Incorrect Mode Selection – If the generator is in Auto mode, the Start and Stop buttons will not work manually. Ensure it is in Manual mode if manual starting is required.
2. Remote Start Wiring Issue – The remote start connections are made using wires 24 and 5, which must be correctly connected to the terminal block as per the genset’s wiring schematic. If these connections are incorrect, the generator may not start.
3. Fault Conditions – If there is an active fault buzzer, it may indicate an issue preventing the generator from starting. The mute/lamp test button can be used to check for faults.
4. Parameter Settings – If the parameters are not correctly set, the generator may not function as expected. The scroll button allows access and modification of parameters.
5. Safety Shutdowns – The system may have triggered a shutdown due to overspeed, high temperature, or low pressure. These must be checked and resolved before restarting.
Checking these factors should help diagnose why the generator is not starting.

Hour is not displaying on monitor screen. I have 11.02 Kh instead.
The hour is showing as 11.02 Kh instead of displaying properly on the FG Wilson DCP-10 monitor screen likely because the unit is displaying kilohours (Kh), where 1 Kh equals 1,000 hours. So, 11.02 Kh means 11,020 hours. This is a normal format used in some generator controllers to display runtime.
