Version B: September 2005 : modification of the picture of the cover (P4). • Version C: October 2006 : adaptation of the document for new hardware of the Unigen for Unigen Plus A51M109 and Industrial Unigen. • Version D: November 2006 : addition of the Modbus, Command mode and Mains paralleled functions.
• Internal synch check relays, useful for auto and manual synchronization. • Phase sequence protection. • Load sharing with CAN plug and play (‘sw1’ configuration) or with paralleling lines(for Unigen Plus: ‘sw3’ configuration). • Automatic load/unload. • Reverse Kw relays.
This input can also be used as 0-5Vdc for a master PLC control. In this case the nominal speed have to be adjusted with 2.5 VDC applied on cursor input. Unigen Plus & Industrial Unigen - User technical documentation A51Z090004-D...
2.5. CAN load sharing. When ‘DROOP’ (terminal 4) input is opened and the switch ‘sw3’ (plines/canbus) is on canbus (ON position) (for Unigen Plus), UNIGEN is in isochronous load sharing mode. The load setpoint will be calculated via the CAN connection.
4->and the generator breaker is closed (terminal 5 connected to the 0VDC), then the UNIGEN Plus is in ‘Mains paralleled’ mode. The setpoint load is fixed by the paralleling lines (terminals 44/45) (coming from the GCR for example) and the power factor is fixed at 0.95 by the parameter ‘E11020’.

Close: connected to the 0VDC. Open: not connected. Unigen Plus & Industrial Unigen - User technical documentation A51Z090004-D page 9/19...
2.10. Modbus(for Unigen Plus ) Put the ‘sw8’ (Modbus OFF/120 ) on ON position (resistor of 120 ) when the Unigen Plus is used on end of line. All the logical and analogue input/output values and all the other parameters which appear in the UNIGEN Plus menus can be obtained by the serial port RS485 terminals 49A and 50B (2 wires).
‘SYNC OK’ (terminals 34/35) closes on deadbus condition. sw7‘OFF/ON’ is not used. sw8‘terminal resistor of Modbus’: OFF position resistor not connected; ON position resistor of 120 connected. Not used switch for Industrial Unigen. Unigen Plus & Industrial Unigen - User technical documentation A51Z090004-D page 11/19...
Green LED. COMMAND This LED is ON when a command mode is required (input MODE ‘COMMAND MODE’ closed to the 0Vdc) (for Unigen Plus). Green LED. This LED is flickering when the load sharing mode is the canbus. CANBUS This LED flickers according to the number of Unigen communicating in the canbus (‘sw3’...

The grounding must be done in a proper way to avoid personal injuries and for a reduction of EMC. 6.1.3. Vibrations: In case of heavy vibrations, the UNIGEN should be mounted using AV Mounts. Unigen Plus & Industrial Unigen - User technical documentation A51Z090004-D page 16/19...
Close the ‘SYNC IN’ input (terminal 3 to 0 Volts). UNIGEN is trying to synchronize on a dead bus (00.00Hz). • Adjust the speed gain RV10 to have 48,00Hz. • Open the ‘SYNC IN’ input. Unigen Plus & Industrial Unigen - User technical documentation A51Z090004-D page 17/19...
