Page 5: Introduction
H30 Operation Manual Houston Street Technologies 1. Introduction Houston Street Technologies’ Model H30 diesel engine controller was designed to provide simple, accurate and consistent engine control for a variety of diesel power applications. When used with an ECU controlled engine the H30 utilizes SAE J1939 CAN bus protocol to communicate desired engine control characteristics as well as display all relevant engine operating parameters and fault codes, both stored and active. -

Page 10: Manual Operation Modes
H30 Operation Manual Houston Street Technologies 6. Manual Operation Modes MANUAL RAMP When in MANUAL RAMP mode the engine will operate within a range of configurable low and high RPM values, increasing and decreasing speed in one of two manners: 5 second linearly or exponentially. When using 5 second linear ramp rate the engine speed will increase from the low RPM setting to the high RPM setting in a 5 second interval when the UP button is held. -
Page 11: Auto Operation Mode
H30 Operation Manual Houston Street Technologies 7. Auto Operation Modes When in AUTO RAMP mode the engine will start and stop based off of digital inputs or pressing the U/D buttons. Startup and shutdown profiles of TIME vs. RPM are configurable, allowing for warm up and cool down cycles to minimize stress on both the engine and engine-driven equipment. -
Page 12: Engine Stall Protection (Esp)
H30 Operation Manual Houston Street Technologies 8. Engine Stall Protection (ESP) When ENGINE STALL PROTECTION (ESP) is enabled, the H30 can be used to engage and disengage feed rollers that may be overloading the engine, causing it to stall. One of the H30’s digital outputs can be configured to engage the feed forward solenoid at a set RPM limit, while a second digital output can be used to reverse the feed direction for a set amount of time (0.0 to 1.0 seconds) when a low RPM limit is reached. - Page 13 H30 Operation Manual Houston Street Technologies ESP - DUAL VALVE A dual-valve feed system is comprised of dual 2-position valves that use one solenoid each to control hydraulic oil flow, and ultimately the feed direction. The first valve is an ON/OFF valve that controls hydraulic oil flow to the feed system, while the second valve determines the direction of the feed rollers.
