3.4 Voltage Adjustments

WARNING
Hazardous voltage.
Can cause severe injury or death.
Operate the generator set only when
all guards and electrical enclosures
are in place.
Short circuits.
Hazardous voltage/current can cause
severe injury or death. Short circuits can cause bodily injury
and/or equipment damage.
connections with tools or jewelry while making adjustments or
repairs. Remove all jewelry before servicing the equipment.
The controller's adjustment mode allows adjustment of
the output voltage, if necessary. Have adjustments
performed by a Lennox dealer or service technician.
Note: A digital voltmeter is required for these
adjustments.
Use a voltmeter to check the output voltage. If the output
voltage is not within specifications, use the controller to
adjust the output voltage while the generator set is
running. The flowcharts in Figure 3-6 and Figure 3-7
outline the adjustment procedures.
Note: Be sure to save your settings before exiting the
configuration mode.
Voltage changes are lost if they are not saved before the
generator set shuts down. The generator set continues
to run with the new settings until it shuts down but then
reverts to the previous settings at the next startup if the
changes have not been saved.

Voltage Adjustment Procedure
1. With the generator set off, connect a digital
multimeter to the output leads or an electrical outlet
on the load side of the generator set. Set the meter
to measure AC voltage.
2. Start the generator set by moving the generator set
master switch to the RUN position.
3. Use the controller to adjust the voltage (parameter
1P) until the output voltage reaches the desired
value. See Figure 3-5 for the approximate change
in voltage per step in parameter 1P. See Figure 3-6
for adjustment instructions.
