  • Page 20: Configuration Sections

    4 Configuration Sections The configuration is sorted into tab sections as follows: The TAB sections Note: The ‘Standby Operation’ tab changes to ‘Start/Fuel’ if selecting Propulsion mode in the Main tab. The sections can be completed in any order, but it is normal to start with Main and then Switch and Analog In .

  • Page 21: Main

    Main The main tab lets you select the main operation mode and the Alt+M control unit language. 4.1.1 Main Operation Mode Four main operation modes can be selected as follows:  Emergency  Auxiliary  Combined  Propulsion The Emergency, Auxiliary and Combined mode is supported in the DCU 305 A unit.
  • Page 22 Emergency Mode Shutdown for overspeed only, The control unit is prepared for Emergency operation mode. all others disabled Shutdown is disabled for all inputs, regardless of the chosen action type. Shutdown is enabled for Overspeed only. Auxiliary Mode All shutdowns enabled The control unit is prepared for Auxiliary operation mode.

  • Page 23: Control Unit Language

    4.1.2 Control Unit Language The control unit has a number of built-in alarms and messages. These are displayed in one of 11 different available languages. The currently supported languages are:  Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish. Additional languages may appear in the future.

  • Page 24: Display Backlight Delay

     In the Switch section, if a Shutdown is selected on channel 1-6, the option “Broken Wire Detection” must also be selected.  In the Analog In section, it is not possible to select Shutdown on a falling signal (as a broken wire will give shutdown).

  • Page 25: Switch

    Switch Alt+W The switch tab is displayed below, together with all the possible settings for switch channels. In the picture below, channel 1 is selected. Channel 1 uses terminal 7 on the wire terminal card RK-66 R2. Clicking anywhere on that line will select channel 1. Then click Active to enable it and complete the fields.

  • Page 26: Input Channel

    4.2.1 Input Channel The input channel number. There are 12 channels altogether. Any sensor can be connected to any channel, but we recommend to connect shutdown switches on channel 1..6, as these have broken wire detection and backup if the main microcontroller fails. Warning and alarm switches are preferred on channels 7..12.

  • Page 27: Warning/Alarm/Shutdown On Run Only

     Shutdown uses Normally Open contacts (NO). It is possible to change that in this menu, although Rudolf suggests the most commonly used switch type for Warning, Alarm and Shutdown as above. Switches for shutdowns shall be of type NO, as a broken wire should not initiate a shutdown.

  • Page 28: Additional Switch Inputs

    4.2.11 Additional Switch Inputs Terminals 61 and 62 on the RK-66 R2 wire terminal card are configurable. LCD Light On: Activates the LCD backlight when it has been automatically turned off. LOCAL Mode: The control unit is set to Local Mode. Standby: The control unit is set to Standby.

  • Page 29: Analog In

    Analog In Alt+A The analogue tab is displayed below, together with all the possible settings for analogue sensors. The sensors must submit the industrial standard 4-20mA signal. 4.3.1 Add a new sensor Select an available input channel by clicking in the window above it.

  • Page 30: Active

     The alarm “Cooling Water Temp.” appears two seconds after the temperature exceeds 92 degrees C. 4.3.2 Active This enables the input channel for use. Any channel can be enabled () or disabled (). If the channel is disabled, the bargraph will not be displayed. 4.3.3 Input Type This may be 0-20mA or 4-20mA.

  • Page 31: Action Type

    The limit can be set with one decimal. 4.3.8 Action Type None: No setpoints are set. The analog value will be displayed only. Warning: Does not need acknowledge. Activates the common warning relay. Alarm: Needs acknowledge. Activates the common alarm relay. Shutdown: Needs acknowledge.

  • Page 32: Above Or Below Limit

    If for instance, the engine oil pressure ranges from 0-6 bar, and the sensor range is 0-18 bar, the bargraph value will be small compared with the full size bargraph (max 6/18bar or 1/3 of the full size). Doubling the scale will enlarge the bargraph value to 2/3 of the full scale, giving a better view.

  • Page 33: Standby Operation

    Standby operation This tab controls parameters for automatic start and stop of the Alt+T Gen. Set. when the control unit is set to Standby. Note: This tab is available only for the Auxiliary, Emergency and Combined modes of operation, as selected in the Main tab. The Standby Operation Tab displaying typical (default) values...

  • Page 34: Cranking Time

    4.4.2 Cranking Time The amount of time the starter motor is cranking the diesel engine in Standby mode of operation. Typical: 7 seconds Range: 2 – 20 seconds Note: Too long start attempts may damage the starter motor or empty the start battery. 4.4.3 Delay between Start Attempts This is the amount of time between each start attempt when set to Standby mode.

  • Page 35: Start/Fuel

    Typical: 3 minutes Range: 0 – 30 minutes Start/Fuel If selecting Propulsion in the Main Tab, the Standby Operation tab is replaced with the Start/Fuel tab. 4.5.1 Initial Start Delay When receiving the Start command from a remote slave panel, the control unit delays this amount of time before starting.

  • Page 36: Speed Sensor

    Speed sensor Alt+P This tab handles pickups and when the engine is said to be running. 4.6.1 Pickup Information Select zero, one or two pickups. If zero pickups are selected, one or more signals must be selected under Additional RUN Detection. 4.6.2 Pickup One/Two RPM Sender Select if the pickup is at the flywheel or the timing gear.

  • Page 37: Ready To Take Load

    4.6.3 Ready to take Load The control unit has a function that can be directed to K7 or K9 on the RK-66 R2 card – or to the optional relay cards – that activates when the engine reaches this RPM. It will not deactivate again until the control unit reaches the stopping mode.

  • Page 38: Run Detected At

    4.6.6 RUN Detected At When starting the gen. set., the control unit will sense that the engine is running when reached this RPM. This will also disable the cranking motor. Typical: 400 RPM Range: 50 – 600 RPM 4.6.7 Run Detection Delay The delay time from when the additional RUN detection signal (eg the oil pressure switch) changes, to when this actually indicates a running engine.

  • Page 39: Battery

    Battery The control unit will give an alarm if the start-battery voltage is too Alt+B low. It will not alarm during Start (Cranking state), or during Stop (Stopping state). 4.7.1 Start Battery Voltage Select 12V or 24V supply. The control unit is a 24V system, but if a 12/24DC/DC converter is used, select 12V here.
