near the location of the 3161 governor that is being replaced

The air lines that are currently connected to the 3161 governor will need to be connected to the two 140-0996 Transmitters . The two 140-0996
Transmitters will then need to be wired to the 723PLUS. If the distance from the 3161 governor to the new panel is less than 6.1 m (20 ft), mount
the transmitters in or on the cabinet and reroute the air lines. If the distance from the 3161 governor to the new panel is greater than 6.1 m (20 ft),
mount the transmitters near the existing 3161. After the transmitters have been mounted, route the wires to the 723PLUS panel. For the
transmitter's dimensions, refer to Illustration 2.

Note: The 140-0996 Transmitters have a .25 inch BSP thread port (female). A 6V-3522 Flared Fitting can be used to adapt the .25 inch BSP
female thread port to a .25 inch 37° flared male fitting. When the 6V-3522 Flared Fitting is used, the 140-0996 Transmitters will be compatible with

Local/Remote Switch
This switch is used to switch the speed control between the external speed reference and the Raise/Lower Switch that is located in the panel. The
external speed references provided by the 4 mA - 20 mA transducer that is connected to the air throttle line.

If only remote control is needed, this switch may be eliminated along with the Raise/Lower Switch.

Idle/Rated Switch
The IDLE position of the Idle/Rated Switch forces the 723PLUS Digital Speed Control to the idle RPM. The idle RPM is programmed into the "Idle
Speed" setting in the Speed Setting Menu of the 723PLUS. The idle position of this switch also disables the remote speed reference and the
Raise/Lower switch.

The RATED position of the Idle/Rated Switch forces the 723PLUS Digital Speed Control into the RATED SPEED parameter in the CFIG menu of
the 723PLUS.

Note: Anytime this switch changes states, any "Accel Ramp Time" or "Decel Ramp Time" that are programmed into the 723PLUS will be effective.

Note: When the Idle/Rated Switch is switched from IDLE to RATED, the engine speed will go from idle speed to rated speed. To eliminate this
problem, program "Rated Speed" in the CFIG Speed Menu to equal the "Idle Speed" setting in the Speed Setting Menu.

As an option, the Idle/Rated Switch may be eliminated. Eliminate the Idle/Rated Switch by connecting a jumper wire between 723PLUS terminal 39
and 723PLUS terminal 35. This will effectively leave the 723PLUS in the rated speed mode at all times.

Raise/Lower Switch
The Lower position of the Raise/Lower Switch allows the speed reference to lower until the lower limit is reached. The speed reference will lower at
a rate that is determined by the "Lower Speed Rate" setting. The "Lower Speed Rate" setting is located in the Speed Setting Menu of the
723PLUS.

The Raise position of the Raise/Lower Switch allows the speed reference to raise until the upper limit is reached. The speed reference will raise at
a rate that is determined by the "Raise Speed Rate" setting. The "Raise Speed Rate" setting is located in the Speed Setting Menu of the 723PLUS.

In order for the Raise/Lower Switch to operate, the Local/Remote switch must be in the Remote position. If the Local/Remote switch is not used,
the Raise/Lower Switch is not needed.

Alarm Reset
This push button switch will reset any alarm conditions that have cleared. Any continuing alarm condition will not be reset.

723PLUS Startup
The engine can be started only when the following jobs have been completed.

wiring completed

transmitters calibrated

UG actuator installed

initial settings made

After the default 723PLUS settings and the initial settings have been made, the engine should start and run at idle. However, the engine will not be
optimized. The engine will likely create smoke on start-up, acceleration, and load changes. The engine will likely experience poor transient
response. Dynamic tuning of the various 723PLUS settings must be done in order to eliminate any performance problems. For start-up information
and assistance in adjusting the 723PLUS dynamic parameters, refer to Service Manual, RENR2228.

Note: The performance parameters of the 723PLUS must be matched to the engine configuration. Trial and error is the most effective method of
determining the optimum setting for a specific installation.
