No Load Control
The generator voltage and generator frequency are adjusted to the configured set point values. The generator cir-
cuit breaker is open.

Synchronizing

Slip Frequency Synchronization

The generator voltage and frequency will be adjusted to the synchronization reference voltage. The circuit breaker
connection command is issued with consideration for the inherent delay of the circuit breaker. The synchroniza-
tion is performed according to the following conditions (refer to the "Function Tables" starting on page 21):

 The unit is in the automatic mode (LED "Automatic" is illuminated)

 Synchronization is enabled
 The voltages and frequencies are within the specified range
 If terminal 6 = OFF, the input "Enable CB" is energized
 If terminal 6 = Enable control, the input "Enable CB" is energized to enable the connection command and the
input "Enable control" is energized to enable the control functions
 The input "Reply: CB is open" is energized
 The synchronization time monitoring is not enabled or has not expired

Phase Matching Synchronization

The generator voltage will be adjusted to the amplitude of the synchronization reference voltage by the voltage
controller. The frequency controller is operated in one of two possible modes:

 Frequency correction: - As long as the difference between the generator and busbar/mains frequency does not
fall below the configured value "df start", the generator is adjusted to the frequency of the busbar/mains.
 Phase angle correction: - If the the difference between the generator and busbar/mains frequency is less than
the value "df start", the frequency controller adjusts the phase angle of the generator so that its phase angle
matches that of the busbar/mains. The phase angle is controlled until the difference between the generator and
the busbar/mains frequency is greater than the value "df start" plus a hysteresis of 0.8 Hz.

The connect command for the power circuit breaker is issued under the following conditions:

 The configured limits for voltage and frequency are met.

 The phase angle between the systems is less then the maximum permissible angle for the configured time
 If terminal 6 = OFF, the input "Enable CB" is energized
 If terminal 6 = Enable control, the input "Enable CB" is energized to enable the connection command and the
input "Enable control" is energized to enable the control functions
 The input "Reply: CB is open" is energized

The connection is performed without consideration of the circuit breaker inherent delay. In the phase matching
mode the analog input should be configured for the frequency controller.
