16. Regulation loops There are following regulation loops bulit-in in the controller. All of them are PI type except angle loop, which is P type. The frequency loop is active in the first phase of synchronization when the generator frequency is regulated to match the mains/bus frequency.
following value: 235/230 = 1.02174*220 = 225V. This enables usage of transformators between the measurement terminals. This regulation loop is active when single gen-set is running in parallel with the mains. This regulation loop is also active when multiple gen-sets are Cos-phi loop running in parallel with mains in BASEPF mode i.e.

Typical responses of a PI regulator For manual tunning of a control loop use following method: 1. Set both the I-factor and P-factor to 0. 2. Increase the P-factor slightly until the system starts to oscillate. 3. Adjust the P-factor back to approx. one half of the value where the oscillations started.
17. Speed governor and AVR general settings 17.1. Sync/load control adjustment Hint: Use isochronous speed governor. Two wire shielded connection from IGS-NT SPEED GOVERNOR output (SG OUT, SG COM) to Speed governor auxiliary input is recommended. A full range change of the IGS-NT speed governor output (from SpeedGovLowLim to SpeedGovHiLim) should cause 5-10% change of the engine speed (SpeedGovLowLim ~ 95% RPM , Speed gov bias ~ 100% RPM...
2) Set the engine RPM by speed trim on speed governor or by Speed gov bias and SpeedGovLowLim and SpeedGovHiLim to reach Nominal frequency. 3) To start synchronizing press GCB ON/OFF button. GCB LED starts to flash to indicate synchronization. To stop synchronization press again GCB ON/OFF . Slip control adjusting: 4) Adjust Freq gain to unstable speed control and decrease value by 30 % to insure stable performance.

AVRi outputs can be connected as symmetric: OUT1-OUT2 or asymmetric OUT1-OCOM or OUT2-OCOM. • Potentiometer on the AVRi defines maximum OUT1, OUT2 voltage range. • Use symmetric (OUT1,OUT2) AVRi output to connect the AVRi to AVR auxiliary voltage input. • Use asymmetric output if an external AVR potentiometer has to be replaced with AVRi.
7) When gen-set is running unloaded increase carefully Voltage gain to unstable point and then decrease value by 30 % to insure stable performance. 8) Adjust Voltage int (usually setting to 100% gives optimal performance). Hint: To judge optimal adjusting induce generator voltage jumps by AVR DCout bias change or by Nominal voltage change.
Electronic Control Units (Electronic engines) with CAN data bus. There are several possibilities to connect CAN bus interface between Electronic engine and ComAp controller. Refer to ComAp Electronic Engines Support manual. 18.1.1. Communication Bridge Unit I-CB unit is an interface between Controller and Electronic engine. Following I-CB types are available: For more details see I-CB-ICBEdit-1.1.pdf manual.
