Remote Serial Annunciator

RSA II is an annunciator panel offered in several kit
configurations to support Kohler power equipment. The
RSA II is a remote serial annunciator Figure 6-18 and
Figure 6-19 that monitors the condition of the generator
set and/or ATS from a remote location. The RSA II alerts
the operator through visual and audible signals using
LED indication and a horn. An alarm silence and lamp
test switch are included.
The RSA II meets NFPA 110, Level 1 applications that
require remote controls and alarms be powered by a
storage battery such as the engine starting battery. An
AC adaptor kit is available when NFPA is not required.
The front panel decals include areas that can be used to
identify user-selected
associated power system equipment.
An RSA II annunciator can be used for a single
generator set or with a combination of a generator set
and automatic transfer switch. In systems using more
than a single RSA II, one must be designated as the
master device to broadcast to additional RSA II
annunciators, designated as slave devices. Up to five
RSA II slave devices can be used with an RSA II master
device. All RSA II annunciators are factory set as the
master device, but can be changed to a slave device
using a PC and SiteTecht software that connects to the
RSA II front panel via a universal serial bus (USB)
connection.
The RSA 1000 can be connected with the RSA II
provided that the master remote annunciator is an
RSA II.
Refer to TT-1485 Remote Serial Annunciator (RSA II)
Kits for operation and installation instructions.
A PC with SiteTecht software is required to make
the RSA II functional. Use your SecurID to access
KOHLERnet, click on the TechTools button, and follow
the instructions to download the files. Refer to the
SiteTecht Software Operation Manual for more
information.
The RSA II kits include components for surface
mounting or flush mounting.
Figure 6-20 shows the status of the system ready LED,
generator set running LED, communication status LED,
common fault LED, common fault output, and horn for
each fault or status condition.
If the RSA II is used with an Ethernet communication
network, order Modbusr
GM41143-KP2 and refer to TT-1405 Converters,
Connections, and Controller Setup for Network
Communication for system installation.
