FAULT CODE INDICATIONS

The generator may have to run for long periods of time
with no operator present. For that reason, the CMA is
equipped with sensing circuits that automatically shut
down the generator in the event of potentially damaging
conditions.
A digital display is provided on the face of the control
panel to annunciate the type of failure (Fault Code) that
has occurred. In addition, there is an optional LED that
can be mounted elsewhere in the system to provide a
remote indication of generator failures.
When the CMA senses a condition that prevents the
generator from functioning properly, it shuts down the
generator and induces the digital display on the unit to
indicate (# representing the number of the fault
"FC_#"
code detected). Simultaneously, it signals the remote
LED to flash in a sequence of blinks that correspond to
the fault code indicated on the digital display.

Fault Code Index:

1. Low Battery Voltage
(FC_1)
2. Low Oil Pressure
(FC_2)
3. Low Output Voltage
(FC_3)
4. Engine Fails To Start
(FC_4)
5. Low Frequency
(FC_5)
6. Engine Over-speed
(FC_6)
7. High Oil Temperature
(FC_7)
8. Transfer Switch Failure
(FC_8)

For example,
a low battery voltage condition and the remote LED
would flash once, pause, flash once again and continue
so on until reset or the condition is corrected.

Resetting The Fault Code Detection System

An operator or technician must reset the fault detection
system each time it activates.
To do so:
If the fault is not corrected, it will be detected again and
the unit will again go into Auto Shutdown with the same
fault code indication(s).
STOPPING THE SYSTEM FOR
MAINTENANCE
Remove the 15 AMP fuse, as appropriate to your
maintenance needs.
