Operator Control Panel (Digital Engine Controller Only)

The Operator Control Panel is shown in Figure 4-1.

WARNING: Never connect this generator to any buildings electrical system unless a licensed electrician

has installed an approved transfer switch. The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires that

connection of a generator to any electrical circuit normally powered by means of an electric

utility must be connected by means of approved transfer switch equipment so as to isolate

the electrical circuit from the utility distribution system when the generator is operating.

Failure to isolate the electrical circuits by such means may result in injury or death to utility

power workers due to backfeed of electrical energy onto the utility lines.

Programming Keys

← Exit pushbutton used to scroll backward through the status menus or programming prompts to the previous item.

Note: The longer the push-button is held down, the faster the menu prompts appear.

Decrement pushbutton used to reduce a programming value while in the programming mode.

Note: The longer the push-button is held down, the faster the value will be decremented.

↑ Increase pushbutton used to increase a programming value while in the programming mode.

Note: The longer the push-button is held down, the faster the value will be incremented.

Note: The longer the push-button is held down, the faster the menu prompts appear.

Run Switch-

When pushed, initiates a manual start signal to start the engine. The engine will start and operate continuously providing no

shutdown faults are active. All protective circuits are operative in this mode. There will be no cool down cycle at the end of a

manual run sequence.
