CAUTION (WESTERLINK
or
NMEA-2000):
The electronic components in the Digital
Diesels draw a very small amount of
amperage (milli-ampsj from the
generator's starting battery when the
unit is in a static state. This maybe as
much as 50 milli-amps for the system
ECU and 50 miUi-amps for each display.
This can be as much as
72
amp-hours in a mollths
time with no generator use. It is not necessary to be
concerned with this slight amperage draw during normal
seasonal use. However,
if
the generator set is not to be
used for a number of months, such as winter storage, it is
best to disconnect the DC power to the generator with a
NMEA-2000 system or shut off the DC breaker on the
generator's control box for a WESTERLlNK system.
NOTE:
Keep in mind that the Westerbeke generator maybe
the DC power supply for the vessel's NMEA·2000 network.

When a failure occurs,. refer to the troubleshooting chart,
wiring diagram, and general operating text
in
this manual to
assist in solving the trouble.
There are many combinations of messages that can be
displayed but they are
all
self explanatory and the operator
can easily isolate and correct the problem should one occur.
Before restarting the generator, the 20 amp DC circuit
breaker
must
be
pushed to the OFF position, and back to the
ON position to reset the ECU. Once the problem is corrected
and the generator is restarted, the LCD display will begin
cycling again.

NOTE:
During operation the color
of the LCD display may vary.
Caused by heat, this
is
nonnal
and no cause for concern.
