Introduction

This document is designed to familiarize a user with the MPC-10 / TEC-10 and how to navigate the
interface and modify the settings when installing and operating the controller. The Quick Set Up
guide assists with establishing the different functions in the MPC-10 / TEC-10 System Controller.
Before attempting to set up the controller, be sure to read and understand this manual in its entirety.

Murphy PowerCore 10 (MPC-10 / TEC-10)

The Murphy PowerCore 10 Controller (MPC-10 / TEC-10) is a general, all-purpose manual/auto start
and manual/auto throttling engine controller designed with rental applications in mind. The controller
is purposed primarily for applications where a wide array of inputs and outputs are not required. This
is a powerful controller that supports J1939 CAN protocols for electronically governed engines as well
as analog sensors on mechanical engines for fault and safety shutdowns.
The MPC-10 / TEC-10 is flexible in many aspects, with the ability to:
• use in most applications where auto start or auto throttling is required or desired;
• use the same controller on electronically governed J1939 and mechanical engines;
• use the same controller on 12VDC or 24VDC systems;
• assign multiple levels of passcode protection to the menu;
• use as auto start or manual start controller;
• use as manual throttle or auto throttle controller;
• change the input sensor type for the analog inputs;
• use analog inputs as digital ground inputs;
• assign functions and actions to digital inputs;
• use digital inputs as battery positive or ground inputs;
• be mounted in all weather environments;
• be customer mounted in panel of choice (MPC-10 only).
Engine Application States
The Controller follows a standard operating sequence. This operating sequence is a set of machine
states that happen in a predetermined order. Machine states can be set to zero if not needed or
adjusted to fit the application. The following states will be executed during the auto sequence, provided
that the corresponding timer has not been set to 00:00:00 or the controller has not been placed in a
manual mode of operation:
• Stabilize: This is a timed state to allow the controller to enable the ECU or any
senders without warnings or errors. This timer can be disabled if set up for mechanical
engine use.
• Stopped: This is a timed state where the engine is ready to be started manually or
automatically.
• Standby: This is a timed state that will shut off the LCD backlight, heater and CAN
transceiver to conserve power while the unit waits for a key press or an automatic start
condition.
• Auto Start Delay: (available in Auto Mode only) The auto start condition is ignored
and must remain active throughout this delay or the delay is reset to zero.
