1.2.1 OPERATION

Both the remote and generator panel advisory lamps
are controlled by a single DC CONTROL-LATCH-
CRANK circuit board housed in the generator control
console. Engine mounted, normally open (N.O.)
switches and sensors provide the necessary signal to
the circuit board on occurrence of a monitored
engine fault. should any one (or more) of the moni-
tored faults occur, an automatic engine shutdown,
illumination of the applicable lamp(s), and sounding
of the Alarm Horn will occur. circuit board action will
then "latch" the fault. That is, the applicable lamp(s)
will remain ON after engine shutdown. While any
lamp remains lighted (latched), further attempts at
generator cranking and startup are inhibited. A 12
volt DC input is required to operate the panel.
See applicable standby generator owner's manual
for more detailed operational description of
remote and generator panel lamps.

1.2.2 CUSTOMER CONNECTIONS

Suitable, approved wiring must be purchased for
interconnection of the Remote Annunciator Panel
with Terminal block TB2. Connect each wire to a
numbered terminal block screw and to an identically
numbered terminal in the remote annunciator panel.
A total of nine wires are required. Numbered termi-
nals may be identified as follows:
• #94 — Low Oil Pressure Shutdown
• #95 — High Coolant Temperature/Low Coolant
Level Shutdown
• #96 — Overcrank Shutdown
• #97 — Overspeed Shutdown
• #98 — RPM Sensor Loss Shutdown
• #137 — Test Switch Connections
• #138 — Reset Switch Connections
• #209 — Alarm Relay Normally Closed Contacts*
• #210 — Alarm Relay Common Contacts*
• #211 — Alarm Relay Normally Open Contacts*
* DO NOT EXCEED ONE (1) AMPERE OF CURRENT
ACROSS ALARM RELAY CONTACTS.

18 LIGHT REMOTE ANNUNCIATOR

The Model 9555 Remote Annunciator Panel is a self
contained system, utilizing solid state circuits to
annunciate up to sixteen (16) engine-driven generator
operating parameters (Figure 1.3). The system meets
NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) specifica-
tions for standby electric power systems.
The system will monitor any sensing device having
normally-open (N.O.) contacts which provide a +DC
signal to the applicable panel lamp on contacts clo-
sure. On contacts closure, both an alarm lamp and
an alarm horn are activated and latched in to manu-
al reset. The alarm horn may be silenced without dis-
turbing the visual indication and with any subse-
quent alarm re-activating the horn. The system
includes a test circuit.
The one exception to the normally-open (N.O.)
contacts rule is the LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE
lamp. This lamp must be connected to normally-
closed (N.C.) contacts on the battery monitor cir-
cuit board, located in the generator control panel.
