5.3 Performing a Local APU Test

Procedure:

1. Locate the ECM and set the Run/Auto/Stop (RAS) switch to the STOP position.

2. Verify ignition battery and AC line sense connection to ECM.

3. Verify all alarms on ECM are OFF, except Tamper Alarm & Auto Mode Disabled.

4. Remove gas port plug from input side of demand regulator, install brass manometer port

connection fi tting and connect manometer to fi tting (see Section 7-9 for details).

5. Move the RAS switch from Stop to Auto.

6. Verify the engine starts within 9 crank cycles. If engine fails to start within 9 crank cycles

and Engine Over-crank is activated, the gas line needs to be purged by removing the
air fi lter and placing your hand over the carburetor throat and cranking the engine until it
starts.

7. Verify 11" of water column pressure is present at the input of the demand regulator.

The Generator Control Board master switch will override the Run/Auto/Stop (RAS) switch on the ECM. This
switch defaults to the center (ECM) position.
