Safety ground connection is MANDATORY and required for the proper device functionality. It must be done before any other connection; SICES srl is no in any way liable for damage or person injury due to the lack or the incorrect safety ground connection.

16mm for 40kVA applications DST2600 is equipped with a charge maintainer that has the purpose of supply the internal logic and compensate the self discharge of the main engine battery. It is supplied from phase L1 of the mains line; it is thus required that in three-phases system the neutral line is connected in order to proper supply the battery maintainer.

DST2600 has over-current protection for the battery connection and for the mains and genset connections. They are made by fuses. Before change any fuse, check that no harmful voltages are present: stop the genset by emergency stop, open the mains line and disconnect the genset battery.

DST2600 has eleven lights, to signal status, events and for the working and visualization modes. In the “OFF_RESET”, by pressing the “STOP” key, all the lights will be lighted on (“LAMP TEST”) allowing to check their proper working. They’re three yellow lights on the left side of the arrow keys. They signal the working mode of the device (for a complete description of the working modes see par.

(“OFF_RESET”, “MAN”, “AUTO”). Each mode is signalled with the corresponding light. To pass from one mode to another, keep pressed the arrow key for about one second; to pass from “OFF_RESET” to “AUTO” and vice-versa it is necessary to pass from “MAN”. DST2600 User’s Manual...

In this mode is furthermore possible to run a manual “TEST”, besides the automatic periodical running test (see par. 10). Moreover, it is possible to pass to “REMOTE START” mode, by a digital input command or by a serial port command. DST2600 User’s Manual...

The key allows moreover to abort the modification of a parameter when in progress (the parameter will keep its previous value). The key finally allows, if used together with the “START” and “STOP” keys to modify the value of a parameter of 10 units at time (“SHIFT” function). DST2600 User’s Manual...

Whatever is the visualization mode, when an anomaly occurs the visualization is forced to “MODE1”. In “MODE2”, pressing more time the “AUX/PROGRAM” key, it is possible to visualize four different pages, containing measurements related to generator and to mains - Page 1: DST2600 User’s Manual...

DST2600 manages an internal clock/calendar. Attention: there isn’t any internal real clock circuit, so if you remove power supply from DST2600, when you power it again the date will be “01/01/2000” and the time will be “00:00:00”. In this case, date and time are marked as “not valid”...

(pressing the “STOP” key will cause the activation of a block). To enable the periodical test it is necessary to set the some parameters. The procedure is changed from revision 00.06 of DST2600. Up to 00.05 version: parameters involved are P.419 and P.420. Parameter P.419 is a time expressed in hours: it is the time interval between one test and the next.

The operator can start a test by sending a SMS containing a specific text (see SICES document EAAS0180xx). In the same way the test can be ended. NOTE: the test can be started in this way only if the parameter P.429 (test length) has a value different from zero:...

The engine has been started by the board (the fuel solenoid command must be active). No alarms or deactivations are present. In the OFF/RESET mode, loads are always changed-over to mains (and so, selecting this mode will cause an automatic changeover to mains if load was connected to generator). DST2600 User’s Manual...

When DST2600 is supplied (from engine battery or mains), is does a sequence of operations: LAMP TEST: the internal horn is enabled for about 0.5 seconds; all the LEDs and the display internal light are switched on for about two seconds. This operation has the purpose to allow to the operator to check for failures on the signal lamps or on the horn that could involve a lack in a failure signalling.

It is also possible to exit from the programming procedure passing in “MAN” mode. To each new access in the programming procedure the display will show the menu or the parameter visualized the previous time. DST2600 User’s Manual...

Generally the mean absorption with engine stopped is about 110-130mAac @230Vac, independently by the device working mode; with engine running and then with battery charger alternator working the absorption is reduced practically to that of the active contactor (mains or generator).
