1. About this document

General purpose
This document is the M-Logic handbook for DEIF’s Multi-line modules. The document mainly
includes a general description, information about programming, overall configuration and relay
configuration.

The general purpose of this handbook is to inform the intended users about programming and
configuration of the M-Logic tool.

Intended users
The handbook is mainly intended for the person responsible for the unit setup. In most cases,
this would be a panel builder designer. Naturally, other users might also find useful information
in the handbook.

Please make sure to read this handbook before working with the multi-line 2
controller and the gen-set to be controlled. Failure to do this could result in
damage to the equipment or human injury.

2. Warnings and legal information

Legal information and responsibility

DEIF takes no responsibility for installation or operation of the generator set. If there is any doubt
about how to install or operate the engine and generator controlled by the unit, the company
responsible for the installation or the operation of the set must be contacted.

The units are not to be opened by unauthorised personnel. If opened anyway, the
warranty will be lost.

Electrostatic discharge awareness

Sufficient care must be taken to protect the terminals against static discharges during the
installation. Once the unit is installed and connected, these precautions are no longer necessary.

Safety issues
Installing the unit implies work with dangerous currents and voltages. Therefore, the installation
should only be carried out by authorised personnel who understand the risks involved in working
with live electrical equipment.

Be aware of the hazardous live currents and voltages. Do not touch any AC
measurement inputs as this could lead to injury or death.

Factory settings
The unit is delivered with the M-Logic disabled. If used, the M-Logic settings must be tested with
care before running the engine.

Definitions
Throughout this document a number of notes and warnings will be presented. To ensure that these
are noticed, they will be highlighted in order to separate them from the general text.

Notes

The notes provide general information, which will be helpful for the reader to
bear in mind.

Warning

The warnings indicate a potentially dangerous situation, which could result in

death, personal injury or damaged equipment, if certain guidelines are not
followed.

3. General description

Introduction
The M-Logic is a small logic controller incorporated in the Multi-line 2 unit. Even though it is a
logic controller, it must not be confused with a PLC. The M-Logic can be compared with a PLC
limited in functionality and can only be used for uncomplicated tasks.

The M-Logic can carry out binary control functions only; there are no possibilities for analogue
reading and/or control functions.

The M-Logic can be programmed from the free PC tool called DEIF Utility Software (USW ver.
3). The USW can be downloaded from:

http://www.deif.com/Download_centre/Software_download.aspx

M-Logic setting is done in command lines. There are 40 lines, and each line contains 3 events, 2
operators and one output with a possibility to make a time delay.

If 3 operators are not enough, a number of virtual events can be used to pass the control on to
another line and carry on there. This makes it possible to build larger event based controls.

4. Configuration

Starting
Once the USW has been started, there will be an icon on the lower left-
hand side to activate M-Logic.

Click the icon, and the following screen appears:

DEIF A/S Page 7 of 25

Multi-line 2 Application Notes, M-Logic

Read/write
When the M-Logic screen is shown, the M-Logic toolbar appears at the top of the screen. The
toolbar has two buttons which are used to write and read the M-Logic configuration to and from
the unit.

The M-Logic configuration can also be saved/opened to/from a file using the default save/open
buttons.

Read M-Logic settings from the unit

Activating this button will read all M-Logic settings from the unit to the USW.

Write M-Logic settings to the unit

Activating this button will write the M-Logic settings from the USW to the unit.

Save/open
Save
Activating this button makes it possible to save the M-Logic configuration to file
(part of the general Multi-line 2 configuration file “.USW”).

Open
Activating this button makes it possible to open a previously saved logics file.

DEIF A/S Page 8 of 25

Multi-line 2 Application Notes, M-Logic

Basic functions
The M-Logic consists of a number of “lines”, Logic 1, Logic 2 and so on. Each of these lines
have 3 event settings, 2 operator settings, an enable tick box and one output setting.

The available functions are:

Events A, B and C
These are used to trigger the logic.

Note that for each event the function “NOT” can be selected
to get an inverted function.

When opening the roll-down window of the events, this

window appears:

Alarms: Use an alarm to activate.

Limits: Same as alarms, only with no time delay.

Events: Events that are not alarms, e.g. “Engine

running”.

Logic: Can be TRUE or FALSE. TRUE means always, FALSE means never.

Inputs: Direct activation of a binary input. The availability of binary inputs is option
dependent.

Modes: Are running modes and plant modes, e.g. “AUTO”.

Relays: Activation when a relay activates. The availability of relay outputs is option
dependent.
Virtual
events: Is a number of internal (virtual) events that can be activated from another
logic line. By using these virtual events, the number of activating (triggering)
events can be expanded from the 3 available in each logic line to, in theory,
an unlimited number of events.

Fail class: The event activates upon activation of any alarm with the chosen fail class,
e.g. “Shutdown”.
Command
timers
1 s pulse: If the activating (triggering) event is required to be a pulse, these can be
used.

Power Manage-
ment: Status related to power management, e.g. “Engine 1 running”.
The contents of the roll-down window vary slightly between the different Multi-
line products.

Multi-line 2 Application Notes, M-Logic

Operators
2 operators are available, and they can be:
“OR” (any operator activates the function output),
“AND” (all activated operators must have status ON to activate the function output).

Enable the rule

If this tick box is not ticked, the logic in question will not operate.

Output
This is the selection of the reaction of the system upon
activation of the function. Note that the output has a delay
function. If set to 0 s (default), there is no delay.

Relays: Selection of a relay output. The selection of

these is option-dependent.

Commands: Command to the Multi-line unit, e.g. select

AUTO running mode.

Virtual events: Is a number of internal (virtual) events that

can be activated and used in another logic
line. By using these virtual events, the num-
ber of activating (triggering) events can be
expanded from the 3 available in each logic line to, in theory, an unlimited num-
ber of events.
Virtual events can also be trigged from Modbus.

Alarm LED: The availability of the alarm LEDs is dependent on the module in question. The
above example comes from a GC-1F where 4 LEDs are mounted on the display
front.

Inhibits: A selection of inhibit functions for the alarms.

Buzzer: Incorporated buzzer (GC-1F) or buzzer in the additional operator panel

(AGC/PPM/GC-1F). Control of activation and deactivation of the buzzer (e.g.
with alarms).

Gov/
AVR control: AGC/PPM only: possibility to force the speed/voltage control up or down for
5sec.

GC-1F: If a relay output is chosen, the relay in question must be set up to be an

alarm/limit output (input/output settings, icon in the top of the USW).

AGC/PPM: If a relay output is chosen, the relay in question must be set up to be

a limit relay output. This is done in the parameter list under “OUTPUTS”.

Multi-line 2 Application Notes, M-Logic

Definitions
The TRUE and FALSE states are explained below.

A TRUE state of an input/event will be detected, if the condition defined in the input/event is met.

Examples given:
Digital input is TRUE when activated (12/24V DC applied)
Alarm condition is TRUE when the alarm is present
Mode condition is TRUE when the mode is selected

A FALSE state of an input event will be detected, if the condition defined in the input event is not
met.

Examples given:
Digital input is FALSE when deactivated (12/24V DC not applied)
Alarm condition is FALSE when the alarm is not present
Mode condition is FALSE when the mode is not selected

Examples
By using the events, rules can be made for the use of the M-Logic.

Virtual events
Virtual events are used to expand the number of events in a logic sequence.

The following shows how the output of Logic 1 is used to continue the sequence in Logic 2.

The Logic 1 output is set to Virtual Event 1.

The Event A in Logic 2 is Virtual Event 1.

This gives a total of 5 events that can be used in this logic sequence (A + B + C in Logic 1 and B
+ C in Logic 2).

Set/reset function
If you use a single binary input for e.g. selection of AUTO/MANUAL, you need a SET/RESET
function, since 2 binary inputs are normally required for this.

In the following example, binary input no. 10 is used to switch between AUTO (input ON) and
MANUAL (input OFF).

DEIF A/S Page 11 of 25

Multi-line 2 Application Notes, M-Logic

First line: If input 10 = ON and AUTO = OFF (NOT Auto operation mode), then set
AUTO mode command.

Second line: If input 10 = OFF and MANUAL = OFF (NOT Manual operation), then set
MANUAL mode command.

In M-Logic, it looks like this:

Toggle function
Using a single button to toggle between 2 running modes.

In this example, the button no. 1 on the AOP-2 (configured in a separate tool) is used to activate
Virtual event 1. Logic 1 selects AMF if the mode is NOT AMF, and Logic 2 selects LTO mode if
the mode is NOT LTO. In this way, one single button can be used for toggling between AMF and
LTO modes.

AOP-2 configurator

The window below appears.

Read the present setting by clicking here:

Click button 1 and you select this:

The item text can be written freely and printed, so it can be put in the AOP-2 front pockets.

Click OK and close the AOP-2 window.

Select M-Logic (bottom left-hand side).

DEIF A/S Page 13 of 25

Multi-line 2 Application Notes, M-Logic

Controlling a relay output with one single AOP button

In this example, the relay can be replaced by any other output, and the AOP button can be
replaced by e.g. a binary input.

The button of the AOP-2 must be set to activate Virtual Event 1 (VE 1) (in this case).

In Logic 1, the VE 1 will activate the relay output (26). At the same time, the relay output (26) will
remain ON, unless Virtual Event 2 (VE 2) is activated (AND NOT VE 2).

In Logic 2, the VE 1 will activate VE 2 if the relay output (26) is ON (AND Relay output (26)).

The result is that the relay changes position every time the AOP button is activated.

Power up in a specific mode

In the above example, the unit will always power up in manual mode. The timer in Logic 1 sets
the output for 5 s, and this is used to set manual mode in event 2. When the timer expires, you
can freely select any mode since the virtual event 1 turns ON and the Logic 2 says NOT virtual
event 1.
