without the option to run the equipment in parallel with the system,
without power regulation and without power distribution.
[N1PB] Genset controller to be operated with one circuit breaker,
including the option to run the equipment in parallel with system.
[N1PB] Genset controller to be operated with two circuit breakers,
including the option to run the equipment in parallel with the system.
[NxPB] Note
Many of these functions are only available in versions [N1PB] or [N2PB]. This
option is pointed out by [NxPB], with the possibility of x = 1/2.
NOTE
These Operating Instructions have been developed and are intended for a unit fitted with all
available options. Inputs/outputs, functions, parameterization screens and other details described,
which do not exist on your unit may be ignored.
ATTENTION
The present Operating Instructions have been prepared to enable the installation and
commissioning of the device. On account of the large variety of parameter settings, it is not possible
to cover every possible combination. The Operating Instructions are therefore only a guide. In case
of incorrect entries or a total loss of functions, the default settings can be taken from the enclosed
list of parameters.

2 Description of Functions
2.1 What to con sider when using ...

2.1.1 ... the differe nt options
In accordance with its configuration, the unit may differ from the maximum expansion
via the following characteristics:
• The inputs and outputs may be installed or not. Please check the wiring diagram
and the notes referring to the corresponding options. Refer to the type plate to see
whether or not the corresponding option is contained in the unit. If the type plate
was removed you can scroll through all parameterization masks and combine indi-
vidual options with the aid of this operating manual.
• There are various parameterization masks for the various types of interfaces.
2.1.2 ... equipmen ts with one power circuit breaker

If a device with a 2-circuit breaker logic circuit [N2PB] or with a 1-circuit breaker logic
circuit [N1PB] is used for an application with one power circuit breaker, the following
applies:
• If the equipment is to be operated in isolated(parallel)operation, the following sig-
nals must be deposited (as a rule, the following applies: Term. 53 always negatedto
term. 54):
- Never connect terminal 53 (no MCB enable),
- Set emergency operation to "OFF",
- Set mains decoupling to "GLS",
- "Response: MCB is open" / "isolated operation" (term. 54): HIGH-signal (log. "1")
and
- "MCB enable" (terminal 53): LOW-signal (logic "0").
- Condition: The "emergency power" mask must be set to "OFF".
• [not NEB] If the equipment is to be operated in isolated(parallel)operation, the fol-
lowing signals must be deposited (as a rule, the following applies: Term. 53 always
negatedto term. 54):
- "Reply: MCB is open" / "isolated operation" (term. 54): LOW-signal (log. "0") and
- "MCB enable" (terminal 53): HIGH signal (logical "1").
2.1.3 ... equipmen ts with asynchronous generators

If systems with systems with asynchronous generators are used, the following must
be noted:
• Systems with asynchronous generators are 1-LS-equipments [N1PB].
• Connect the remanent voltage to the terminals 23/24. Terminal 23/24 has a zoom
function as long as the unit is not operated in parallel with the mains, as the un-
stimulated synchronous generator is not yet able to generate voltage. If the unit is
operated in parallel with the mains, this input is no longer taken into consideration.
Control is carried out on the basis of voltage measurement at terminals 20/21/22
and 50/51/52.
• Use a device with a 2-circuit breaker logic circuit [N2PB], make sure that the input
"response: MCB is open" is controlled by a continuous LOW-signal (e. g. do not
connect or link with the terminal 7 "Common"). As a result of this, the closed nature
of the MCB and unit operation in parallel with the mains are simulated to the unit.
• Connect the terminal 53 " MCB enable" to a continuous HIGH-signal (e.. g. connect
with the terminal 1 "power supply"). This informs the unit that it is in operation in
parallel with the mains. Power control is carried out.

2.3 Control Inpu ts
NOTE
Any possible emergency power ("Emergency power" parameterization screen must be set to ON) or
sprinkler operation (terminal 6 must be parameterized accordingly) will be carried out in the "TEST"
and "AUTOMATIC" operating modes regardless of the digital inputs "Automatic 1" and "Auto-
matic 2". If terminals 3 and 5 are set simultaneously, preference is given to terminal 3.
Automatic 1 Selection of the operating mode "AUTOMATIC" with the "setpoint of the active
Terminal 3 load 1"
Set.................. If the device is set to the operating mode "AUTOMATIC" (selected by
means of the selector switch for operating modes located at the front
side) the "setpoint of the active load 1" is adjusted while in operation
in parallel with the mains.In the case of a fixed power (F), the unit is
started immediately and operation in parallel with the mains is com-
menced following the synchronization of the generator power circuit
breaker. In the case of incoming (B) or outgoing power (L), starting is
determined by automatic an start/settle operation. If no automatic
start/settle operation is carried out, the unit is started immediately.
The setpoint value can be modified via both the parameterization
mode and via the "up/down" buttons in "AUTOMATIC" mode.
Reset ............. If neither the sprinkler nor the emergency power operation are acti-
vated, the genset is shut down and then switched off after coasting.
Automatic 2 Selection of the operating mode "AUTOMATIC" with the "setpoint of the active
Terminal 5 load 2"
Set.................. If the device is set to the operating mode "AUTOMATIC" (selected by
means of the selector switch for operating modes located at the front
side) the "setpoint of the active load 2" is adjusted while in operation
in parallel with the mains. In the case of a fixed power (F), the unit is
started immediately and operation in parallel with the mains is com-
menced following the synchronization of the generator power circuit
breaker. In the case of incoming (B) or outgoing power (L), starting is
determined by automatic boost/buck operation. If no automatic
boost/buck operation is carried out, the unit is started immediately.
The setpoint value can be modified via both the parameterization
mode and via the "up/down" buttons in "AUTOMATIC" mode.
Reset ............. If neither the sprinkler nor the emergency power operation are acti-
vated, the genset is shut down and then switched off after coasting.
If the external definition of a setpoint value is activated (e. g. by an analog input

0/4..20 mA or by a bidirectional interface), the external setpoint is adjusted via the
digital input (see table of setpoints).

Page 16/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
Multifunction Digital input terminal 6 may reveal different functions according to the following
Terminal 6 description. Please note that, when used as a sprinkler input, the digital input re-
veals negative functional logic. The logic circuit is selected by means of a param-
eterization mask (chapter 4.9.3 "Setting the Function of Terminal 6 ", page 98).
• Sprinkler By resetting the terminal 6 (application of a Low-level) the sprinkler operation is activated
according to the description of functions. This is terminated by setting terminal 6 (application of
a High signal). Attention: Negative functional logic! (For the function of the sprinkler operation
please also refer to the chapter 2.12 "Sprinkler Operation" on page 36.)
• Motor release Here, the terminal 6 has the same function as the STOP-button: Resetting the terminal 6 (appli-
cation of a LOW-level) avoids that the engine is started and stops a genset which is already
running; the application of a HIGH-level releases the start of the genset. Attention: Via this
function, emergency power operation is also prevented or aborted. Emergency power is not
possible without this release signal! The motor release function is only possible in "AUTO-
MATIC" operating mode.
• ext. acknowledge While in the operationg modes "STOP" and "AUTOMATIC" external errors may be acknowl-
edged by setting the terminal 6 (change of slope from a LOW- to a HIGH-level). In order to
achieve further acknowledgment, terminal 6 must accordingly first be reset and then set again.
If a continuous HIGH signal is present at terminal 6, this has no effect on the acknowledgment
and suppression of fault messages.
• no CB by start If the terminal 6 is set, the genset starts, no synchronization is carried out and the generator
power circuit breaker is not switched on (no switching to the black busbar). The PCB is only
switched on in case of emergency current. After the return of the mains the transfer to the mains
is carried out according to the preset switch logic. The start via the terminal 6 is more significant
than the start via the terminals 3/5. If terminal 6 was selected, the terminals 3/5 are ignored. If,
for the circuit breaker logic "Parallel", the genset is set to operation parallel with the mains, and
if the terminal 6 is activated, the GCB is opened after a power reduction. The genset keeps on
running in no-load operation with the GCB open. By deactivating the terminal 6 the genset is
shut down without coasting.

2.4 Control Outp uts

Readiness for operation Setting the relay signals the readiness for operation of the unit. If this relay drops off,
Terminal 18/19 a faultless operation of the device cannot be guaranteed. Make sure to take the
appropriate measures if this relay has dropped out (e.g. open GCB, switch off the
engine).
Preheating (diesel unit) By setting this relay, the diesel unit is preheated (see description of functions start-
pre-assigned to relay 3, terminals 37/38 ing process diesel unit, pages 22/111).
Ignition "ON" (gas engine) By setting this relay, the ignition of the gas engine is switched on (see description of
pre-assigned to relay 3, terminals 37/38 functions starting process gas engine, pages 24/111).
Starting relay (diesel unit) By setting this relay the start will be released for the drive unit. If the unit is to be
Terminals 43/44 shut down the relay will immediately drop off. If the speed of the genset drops below
the settable ignition speed, the relay also drops out (see description of functions
starting process diesel engine, pages 22/111).
Gas valve (gas engine) By setting this relay the gas valve for the gas unit will be opened. If the unit is to be
Terminals 43/44 shut down the relay will immediately drop out. If the speed of the genset drops be-
low the settable ignition speed, the relay also drops out (see description of functions
starting process gas engine, pages 24/111).
Starter By setting this relay the starter will be engaged. When reaching the ignition speed or
Terminals 45/46 in case of a STOP the starter is reset (see chapter 4.12.2 "Determination of the
Engine Type " from page 110).
Centralized alarm By setting this relay, a centralized alarm is output. It is possible to trigger for in-
stance a horn or a buzzer. The operator can reset the relay by pressing the push-
pre-assigned to relay 7, terminals 47/48
button "clear" for a short period. The relay will be set again if another fault occurs.
The centralized alarm is set for errors of the error class F1 to F3 (see page 41).
Command: GCB close By setting this relay the generator power circuit breaker (GCB) will be closed. If the
Terminals 14/15 connection of the GCB has been parameterized to continuous pulse, the "Reply:
GCB is open" the relay is maintained in its closed state; this is also the case if the
voltages of the generator and the generator busbar are identical. In the event of a
fault of the class 2 or 3, or the GCB is to be opened, this relay drops out. If the con-
nection of the GCB was not programmed by means of a continuous pulse the relay
drops out again after the pulse is issued.
Command: GCB open By setting this relay the GCB will be opened. Following "Reply: GCB is open", the
Terminals 41/42 relay output is removed.

Page 18/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
[NEB, N2PB] By setting this relay the MCB will be closed. This output is always a add-on pulse,
Command: GCB close i. e, the locking of the mains circuit breaker must be carried out externally.
Terminals 16/17
[NEB, N2PB] By setting this relay the MCB will be opened. Following "Reply: MCB is open", the
Command: MCB close relay output is removed.

engagement time (0..99 s) tEZ = 5 s
interval between two start attempts (0..99 s) tSPZ = 10 s
Function If the device is equipped with a three-position frequency controller, the relay "lower
frequency" is output for the time "intitial state frequency controller" prior to the starting
process. Then the relay "Preheating" will be set for the period of the preheating time.
Following preheating, the operating magnet is first set, and then the starter. When
the adjustable firing speed is exceeded, the starter is disengaged again, and the op-
erating magnet is held via the firing speed. After reaching "starting frequency f-
controller" of the speed governor and following the time lag, the speed govenor is ac-
tivated.
b.) Stop Procedure
Coasting time (0..999 s) tN = 3 s
Function By resetting the operation bit, the power is reduced ( provided that the active load
controller is switched on). After opening the generator power circuit breaker, the
coasting time is started, and the motor rotates without load. After terminating the
coasting time, the magnetic relay is reset. The motor is stopped. If the firing speed is
not reached, motor starting is prevented for a firmly prespecified time of 10 seconds.
If the motor cannot be stopped by the magnetic relay, the "shutoff malfunction" fault
message appears after 30 s, a class 3 fault is output.

again. The gas valve and the ignition are held via the firing speed. After reaching the
"starting frequency f-controller" and following the time lag, the speed governor is then
activated.
Starting process The gas valve is held via the ignition speed. The ignition is held via the minimum
speed (at pickup) or is shut down at < 15 Hz (without pickup).
b.) Stop Procedures
Coasting time (0..999 s) TZN = 3 s

"Engine Stop" 10 s TMst = 10 s
"Shutdown fault" 30 s Tab = 30 s
Function By resetting the starting request the power is reduced (provided that the active power
controller is switched on). After opening the generator power circuit breaker, the
coasting time is started, and the motor rotates without load. After terminating the
coasting time the gas valve relay is reset. The motor is stopped. If the firing speed is
not reached, motor starting is prevented for a firmly prespecified time of 10 s sec-
onds. If the motor cannot be stopped, the "Shutoff malfunction" fault message ap-
pears after 30 s, a class 3 fault is output.
Without pickup: following a negative deviation of the ignition speed the ignition relay
remains set for another 5 seconds for the combustion of the remaining gas.

2.8 Control of th e Power Circuit Breakers
The closing and opening operations of the generator power circuit breaker (GCB)
and the mains power circuit breaker (MCB) are described in the following diagram.
The pulses are switched over in the mask desribed below, with the signal sequence
being affected as indicated (the control of the mains circuit breaker cannot be ef-
fected by means of a continuous impulse). If the "Automatic switch release" screen is
set to "ON", an open pulse is output prior to each close pulse. The "MCB release" in-
hibits the switching-on of the mains circuit breaker. A closed mains circuit breaker will
not be opened.

2.9 Monitoring o f the Power Circuit Breaker
2.9.1 Add-on Time Monitoring
If the mask "Add-on monitoring" is set to "ON", time monitoring of the synchronization
is effected (monitoring of the add-on for asynchronous generators) : If the synchroni-
zation of the GCB or MCB is started, the time counter is started following the expiry
of delayed motor monitoring. If after the preset time, the power circuit breaker has not
been closed, the warning message "Synchronisation time of the GCB exceeded" (for
asynchronous generators "Add-on time of the GCB exceeded") or "Synchronisation
time of the MCB exceeded" (for asynchronous generators "Add-on time of the MCB
exceeded") is output as an F1-error.
2.9.2 Circuit Break er Monitoring
NOTE
If during active "MCB monitoring", circuit breaker monitoring, a fault is detected on closing the MCB,
this is carried out during activated emergency power.
while CLOSING If the mask "monitoring GCB" or "monitoring MCB" is set to "ON", monitoring of the
generator and mains circuit breakers is carried out (exception: The power circuit
breaker logic is set to "EXTERNAL"). If the circuit breaker cannot be activated by the
fifth attempt, a fault class F1 "GCB malfunction" or "MCB malfunction" fault message
is output. In the relay manager (see chapter 4.11.2 "Relay Manager" from page 109)
a relay is set with the parameter 74 or 75.
while OPENING If 2 seconds following an OPEN-pulse (opening of the GCB or MCB) the response is
detected that the GCB or MCB is closed, this also leads to the output of an error with
the message "malfunction GCB" or "malfunction MCB". In the relay manager, a relay
is set with the parameter 76 or 77.
2.10 Switch Logic of the Power Circuit Breakers
NOTE
For the description of the switch logics please refer to the chapter 4.6.1 "Circuit Breaker Logic" from
page 77. The synchronisation conditions apply as described in the chapter 2.7.1 "Synchronization
of the Generator Power Circuit Breakers" from page 26 and the chapter 2.7.3 "Synchronization of
the Mains Circuit Breakers" from page 28.
2.10.1 Switch Logic "PARALLEL" [NxPB]
NOTE
This switch logic must be selected for the following operating modes: isolated operation, isolated
operation in parallel with other gensets and operation in parallel with the mains.
In the event of a motor request

• the GCB is synchronised and closed and
• the required generator active load is adjusted (option B).

g3/leo.3501.b/e Page 31/153
Following the withdrawal of the motor request,
• the generator power is reduced,
• the GCB is opened and
• the genset is shut down after the coasting.
The mains power circuit breaker is synchronized and closed if

• terminal 53 "Release MCB" is set and
• GCB closed
NOTE
On bucking the unit (no F3 fault), power reduction is carried out before opening the generator
power circuit breaker.
2.10.2 Switch Logic "INTERCHANGE" [N2PB]

Interchange synchronization is activated via the "INTERCHANGE" screen input.
In the event of a motor request, a switch is made from mains to generator supply. In
order to achieve this,
• the GCB is synchronised and closed,
• the mains reference power "zero" is correspondingly adjusted and
• the MCB is opened.
After the motor request has been reset, a switch is made from generator to mains
supply. In order to achieve this,
• the MCB is synchronised and closed,
• the generator power "zero" is correspondingly adjusted and
• the GCB is opened.
2.10.3 Switch Logic "CLOSED TRANS."

Overlap synchronization is activated via the "CLOSED TRANS." screen input.
• the GCB is synchronised and closed and
• the MCB is opened.
• the MCB is synchronised and closed and
• the GCB is opened.
NOTE
The power circuit breakers are opened regardless of the power.

Page 32/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
2.10.4 Switch Logic "CLOSED TRANS." [N2PB/NEB]
The changeover logic is activated via the "CLOSED TRANS." screen input.
• the MCB is opened and
• the GCB is closed.
• the GCB is opened and
• the MCB is closed.
2.10.5 Switch Logic "EXTERNAL"

The external switch logic is activated via the "EXTERNAL" screen input. The entire
switch activation must be effected by a master controller (for instance by a PLC).
Closing and opening pulses sent to the MCB and the GCB are only output by this
controller, if the operating mode is set to "MANUAL". In the event of an error the cir-
cuit breakers are in any case opened by this controller.
2.11 Emergency Power Operation [N2PB/NEB]

Prerequisite The emergency power function can only be activated for synchronous generators by
means of the mask "emergency power operation ON". Emergency power is carried
out in "AUTOMATIC" or "TEST" operating mode regardless of the status of the digital
inputs "Automatic 1" and "Automatic 2".
NOTE
If the "Motor release" function is assigned to terminal 6, emergency power can be digitally
prevented or interrupted from an external source. Please also refer to the description in the
chapter 4.9.3 "Setting the Function of Terminal 6 " on page 98.
Activation of the emergency power operation If an error occurs at least at one of the terminals 50, 51 or 52 during
the activation of the input mask "emergency power delay time ON" the emergency
power is activated. A mains voltage fault is defined as follows: If the mains watch-
dogs are switched on, the limit values set there are used; otherwise, the limits are
internally defined as follows:
Mains watchdogs Voltage Frequency

OFF Umains < 85 % Urated fmains < 90 % frated
Umains > 112 % Urated fmains > 110 % frated
Emergency power is also triggered via the detection of a switch fault when the MCB
is switched on. For the triggering to occur, the masks "emergency power" (page 79)
and "Monitoring MCB" must be set to "ON".
As a rule, the network masks apply for the NEB, since in this case, the mains watch-
dogs cannot be switched off.

g3/leo.3501.b/e Page 33/153
The following principles apply for the emergency power operation:
• If an emergency power operation is triggered, the genset is started in any case un-
less the process is interrupted by an error or by changing the operation mode.
• If the mains returns during the starting process, the MCB is not opened. The unit
starts under all circumstances, and waits without load until the mains settling time
has expired. If a further mains fault occurs during this time, the MCB is opened, and
the GCB is switched to the black busbar. The unit otherwise shuts off following the
expiry of the mains settling time.
• After reaching the black switch limits, the GCB is always closed, independent of the
motor delay time.
• If the mains returns during the emergency power operation (GCB closed) the mains
settling time is first finished before re-synchronising the MCB.
Emergency power operation In the case of an active emergency power operation the message "emergency
power" is displayed.
2.11.1 Emergency Power Operation for Switch Logic "PARALLEL" [N2PB]

Emergency power operation Following the detection of an emergency power case, the emergency power delay is
first finished before starting the genset. On reaching the voltage and frequency limit
values, the MCB is opened, and the GCB is then switched to the black busbar. The
unit takes over the supply of the isolated network.
Return of the mains After the return of the mains voltage the mains settling time is still finished before the
device re-synchronises the mains circuit breaker. After closing the mains power cir-
cuit breaker, the unit assumes its original operating mode. If the generator is shut off,
power reduction is carried out provided that the active power controller is activated.
If the mains returns during starting, the mains power circuit breaker is not opened.
During the mains settling time, the unit operates without load, in order to enable the
immediate connection of the GCB in the event of further mains faults.
2.11.2 Emergency Power Operation for Switch Logic "OPEN TRANS." [N2PB/NEB]
Emergency power operation Following the detection of an emergency power case, the emergency power delay
time is first finished before starting the genset. On reaching the voltage and fre-
quency limit values, the MCB is opened, and the GCB is then switched to the black
busbar. The unit takes over the supply of the isolated network.
Return of the mains After return of the mains voltage, the mains settling time is first finished, before the
mains circuit breaker is switched back by the device via a dead ("dark") busbar. If,
following the expiry of the mains settling time, an operating request is present, the
unit remains in isolated operation.

Page 34/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
2.11.3 Emergency Power Operation for Switch Logic "CLOSED TRANS." [N2PB/NEB]
Emergency power operation Following the detection of an emergency power case the emergency power delay
Return of the mains After the return of the mains voltage the mains settling time is first finished. If no
operating request is present, reverse synchronization of the MCB is carried out fol-
lowing the expiry of this time. Following the closure of the mains power circuit
breaker, the generator power circuit breaker is opened immediately and without any
reduction in power.
2.11.4 Emergency Power Operation for Switch Logic "INTERCHANGE" [N2PB]

Emergency power operation Following the detection of an emergency power case the emergency power delay
Return of the mains After the return of the mains voltage the mains settling time is first finished. If no
operating request is present, reverse synchronization of the MCB is carried out fol-
lowing the expiry of this time. Following the closure of the mains power circuit
breaker, the generator power circuit breaker is opened following the reduction in
power.
If the mains returns whilst the unit is starting, the mains power circuit breaker is not
opened. During the mains settling time, the unit operates without load, in order to en-
able the immediate connection of the GCB in the event of further mains faults.
2.11.5 Emergency Power with "EXTERNAL" Switch Logic
ATTENTION
Emergency power in accordance with DIN VDE 0108 is not possible in this switch logic!
Emergency power operation Following the detection of an emergency power ase, the emergency power delay
quency limit values, the MCB is opened, the GCB is not activated. The GCB and
the MCB are not otherwise operated. Not even following the return of the mains.
2.11.6 Emergency Power with Mains Power Circuit Breaker Malfunction

Mains power circuit breaker malfunction In the "AUTOMATIC" operating mode without a starting request, the control
system is set to emergency power standby. If the mains power circuit breaker is
tripped, the control system attempts to reactivate this. If this is not possible (due to an
MCB fault), the unit is started following the "MCB malfunction", emergency power
subsequently supplies the busbar. Only following the successful acknowledgment of
the "MCB malfunction" fault, is the MCB synchronized and the unit shut off again on
expiry of the mains settling time.

g3/leo.3501.b/e Page 35/153
2.12 Sprinkler Op eration
NOTE
The function "Sprinkler operation" must be assigned to terminal 6. Please also refer to the
description in the chapter 4.9.3 "Setting the Function of Terminal 6 " on page 98.
ATTENTION
Please note, that a High-signal must be applied to the terminal 6, in order to make sure that no
sprinkler operation is effected. With a Low-signal the controller receives the information that the
conditions for the sprinkler operation are given.
Æ Negative functional logic
Sprinkler "ON" If the signal drops out at the terminal 6, the sprinkler ON command is triggered. The
message "Sprinkler operation" is shown on the display. Up to 6 attempts are made to
start the unit (otherwise 3) if it is not yet in operation. All malfunctions which cause
shutoff become messages. Exception: terminal 61 and overspeed.
NOTE
The terminal 61 (error input) maintains the fault class it was adjusted to. It is advisable to assign the
EMERGENCY OFF here. Via the activation of "Sprinkler operation" (terminal 6), fault classes F2
and F3 are converted to fault class F1. (Exception: terminal 61 and overspeed).
Fault class F2 and fault class F3 → fault class F1
A distinction is made between three operating conditions:

M ains
1.) Mains circuit breaker closed
(mains voltage applied): MCB
• the genset is started, Busbar
• the GCB is not closed, or not opened.
GCB S prinkler
2.) Mains circuit breaker opened pum p
(mains voltage not applied):
• the GCB is closed or remains closed.
3.) Mains circuit breaker opened G M

(mains voltage applied):
• the MCB is synchronised,
• after the synchronization of one power circuit breaker, the other is opened.
Sprinkler "OFF" By connecting the sprinkler input, the sprinkler ON-command is reset, but the sprin-
kler operation is maintained. The message "Sprinkler coasting" appears. Sprinkler
operation is automatically terminated 10 minutes later. Earlier termination can be
achieved via the "STOP" operating mode. On operation, malfunctions which cause
shutoffs become active again.

If the unit's current transformers are wired according to the pin diagram shown, the
following values are displayed:
• Positive generator active load The generator supplies active load.
• Inductive generator-cos ϕ The generator is overexcited and supplies

inductive reactive power.
• Positive mains active load Active load is supplied to the mains.
• Inductive mains-cos ϕ The mains picks up inductive reactive power.

2.14 Load and/or var Sharing [NxPB]
Control guarantees that, in every operating condition (operation in parallel with the
mains, isolated operation in parallel with other gensets or reverse synchronization of
the busbar to the mains), the active power (in reference to the relevant nominal load)
is evenly distributed over all gensets operating in parallel to the busbar.
Operation in parallel with the Each controller involved in distribution control influences the genset to which it is
mains with mains transfer assigned in such a manner that the active power set at the mains interchange point
regulation (main control variable) remains constant. All units are interlinked via a CAN bus, via
which any deviation in active power (generator power) can be determined for each
genset. This control variable is taken into consideration on controlling the inter-
change load. The weighting, with which the secondary and the main control vari-
able (= "reference variable") are processed, can be set via a factor. In controlled
state, the set active power flows at the mains interchange point, whereby the total
active power is subdivided equally amongst those gensets involved in distribution
control. If a constant power (F..fixed value) has been input as the setpoint value for
a genset, this is no longer involved in distribution control.
Isolated operation in parallel with Each controller involved in distribution control influences the genset to which it is
other gensets assigned in such a manner that the active power set at the mains interchange point
(main control variable) remains constant. All units are interlinked via a CAN bus, via
which any deviation in active power (generator power) can be determined for each
genset. This control variable is taken into consideration on controlling the fre-
quency. The weighting, with which the secondary and the main control variable
(= "reference variable") are processed, can be set via a factor. In controlled state,
the isolated system has the set rated frequency, whereby the total active power (in
reference to the relevant nominal power) is subdivided equally amongst those gen-
sets involved in distribution control.
Resynchronization of the busbar Distribution is carried out according to the type of isolated operation. The setpoint
to the mains value for the frequency is however calculated from the mains frequency (df max ×
0.5 + fmains, general synchronisation argument; 0.1 Hz). The relay outputs "Mains
power circuit breaker CLOSE" for all devices can be switched in parallel.
Prerequisites It is mandatory that the rated system frequencies (page 54), the add-on-/shutdwon
parameters (from page 77) and the power circuit breaker logics (page 77) are al-
ways adjusted to the same values for all devices of the distribution control system.
Description of the interface for the Distribution control is based on a multi-master-capable bus between the units. This
distribution control system structure enables the parallel operation of up to 8 gensets.
1. The bus length must not exceed 250 mtrs.

To guarantee a trouble-free op-
eration, please observe the fol- 2. Each end of the bus must be terminated with terminating resistors which corre-
lowing: spond to the wave impedance of the bus cable (approx. 120 Ω).
3. The structure of the bus must be linear. Dead-end feeders are not permissible.
4. Shielded "Twisted-Pair" are to be preferred as bus cables (example: Lappkabel
Unitronic LIYCY (TP) 2×2×0.25, UNITRONIC-Bus LD 2×2×0.22).
5. The bus cable must not be installed near power cables.

2.14.1 Schematic R epresentation of the Load Sharing via the CAN-bus

Whether a genset is carrying out a load sharing and frequency control while in iso-
lated operation in parallel with other gensets, and to which extent, is determined by
the parameter "load sharing reference input value " which is expressed as a percent-
age value. See chapter 4.4.6 " Load and/or var sharing" on page 68of the operating
manual. In this case, 10 % means increased active power control, and 99 % in-
creased frequency control. This parameter must be input individually for each unit.
In the case of the following control system, it must be noted that each unit calculates
the mean utilization factor of all units from the data transmitted via the CAN bus, and
then compares this with its own utilization factor. The utilization factor is compared
with the reference variable, and results in the new reference variable. Frequency and
active power control are simultaneously carried out in these units (corresponding to
the reference variable).
Frequency control is carried out via the measured voltage/frequency of the voltage
system. The pickup is only used for monitoring functions.

2.16 Error
2.16.1 Error Classe s
The monitoring functions are divided into four error classes:
F0 Warning error This error does not cause an interruption of the operation. An output is made without
centralized alarm.
Æ Error text display
F1 Warning error This error does not cause an interruption of the operation. Output of the centralized
alarm.
Æ Error text + blinking LED "error" + relay centralized alarm (horn).
F2 Reacting error This error causes a shutoff of the driving genset. Prior to opening the GCB, the active
load is first reduced, followed by a coasting.
Æ Error text + blinking LED "error" + relay centralized alarm (horn) + settle.
F3 Reacting error This error causes an immediate opening of the power circuit breaker as well as the
shutdown of the driving genset.

................................. DISPLAY LC-display
"LC-display"
The LC-display marked 26 outputs the corresponding messages and values, de-
pending on the operating mode which is currently activated. In parameterization
mode, the individual parameters are displayed and changed. While in automatic
mode, the performance quantities (e. g. voltagea and currents) can be retrieved.
Top line • In the field "V/kV" the generator voltage is indicated in dependence of the light-
emitting diodes U1, U2 and U3.
• In the fields "A(L1)", "A(L2)"and "A(L3)" the generator wire currents are separately
indicated for each phase.
Bottom line In the field "Operting and fault messages" the following masks appear:
Basic indication mask

• Display of the generator-cos ϕ and the generator active load
or
• the current action of the device (synchronization, starting, etc.)
Subordinate screen mask: Depending on the unit's equipment,

• the engine speed,
• the mains voltage,
• the mains voltage/mains performance [NxPB],
• the mains cos ϕ,
• the analog input quantities,
• the generator active energy,
• the running hours,
• the remaining time until the maintenance call,
• the genset starting counter,
• the battery voltage (supply voltage),
• the number of subscribers of the load sharing [N2PB or option W/O],
• the maximum generator current (slave pointer)
• the last four fault messages
are displayed.
These masks are displayed one after the other by pressing the button
13 "message↓". When the last display screen has been reached, the basic screen is
displayed. If faults have occurred, their message texts are displayed in the sequence
of their occurrence in the display screens before the basic screen. Only the first
4 errors are indicated. All subsequent errors are no longer indicated, however nor-
mally processed. If any functions of the device are active (e.g. synchronisation of the
GCB), the basic display mask is superimposed by the corresponding message (e.g.
"Synchronous. synchronization"). Following the termination of the unit function, the
basic mask is displayed again.

4 Parameteriz ation Masks (Input of Parameters)
While in input mode (simultaneous depression of 13 "digit↑" and 14 "position→"),

stepping through the parameterization mask is possible by pressing 12 "Selection".
Depressing the button 12 "Selection" for a certain period of time activates the scroll-
ing function, and the displays are rapidly stepped through. By simultaneously de-
pressing the buttons 12 "Selection" and 14 "Position→" you can step backwards
through the last four parameterization masks. Exception: The service routine and
jumping from the last into the first mask. If for a period of time of 60 seconds no input,
modification or any action was made out, the device goes automatically back to the
automatic mode.
NOTE
There are two different hardware versions, both of which are described in this operating manual: A
100 V-version [1] and a 400 V-version [4]. The two versions vary as far as the parameterization
masks, the input of the parameters and the setting limits are concerned The two types are
differentiated by putting their respective voltage values first ([1]... or [4]...).

4.2 Configuratio n of the Password Protection

The device is equipped with a three-level code and parameterization hierarchy al-
lowing to make different parameterization masks visible for different users. A differ-
ence is made between:
Code level 0 User: Third party

(CS0) This code level does not allow any access to the parameters. The input function is
locked.
Code level 1 User: Client

(CS1) This code level authorizes the user to change a few preselected parameters (e. g. set
active load etc.). Changing the password is not possible on this level.
Code level 2 User: Engineer

(CS2) With this code level 2 the user obtains all access rights and can therefore access all
parameters directly (viewing and changing) Moreover, the user can set the password
for levels 1 and 2.

Page 52/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
NOTE
Once the code level has been set, it will remain unchanged, even after repeatedly entering the
parameterization mode. In the event that a wrong code number was entered, the code levels is set
to CS0, thus locking the device for third party users (Input of the passwords on page 56). Two
hours after the last operation, the device automatically goes to code level CS0. By entering the
appropriate code number, you'll go back to the corresponding level.
enter code Entering the code number 0..9999

number 0000 When entering the parameterization mode, the code number is requested first, then
the different users are identified. The number indicated XXXX is a random number
(ZU) to be confirmed with the button 12 "Selection". If the random number was con-
firmed without a changing by 12 "Selection", the code level of the device remains un-
changed. In order to change the code level and to assign new code words to the us-
ers, there are two four-digit code numbers (0000..9999). For the user level "Third
Party" no assignment is necessary, since normally, the user does not obtain any ac-
cess to the parameterization level (protected by the code).
4.3 Configuration of the Basic Settings
Configure Configurate basic settings YES/NO

Base ? YES In order to guarantee a fast advance in the very comprehensive parameterizing
masks, various groups of parameters are combined in blocks The selection of "YES"
or "NO" has no effect on whether such functions as the control or monitoring etc. are
carried out or not. The selection only has the following effects:
YES.......... The parameterization masks of the subsequent block are displayed.
They can either be only viewed (button 13 "Selection") or the parameters
can be changed (buttons 15 "Position →", 14 "Digit ↑" or 13 "Selection").
No decision is made as to whether or not the parameters are processed.
NO ........... The parameters of the subsequent block are not displayed and are
therefore skipped.
WARNING !
An incorrect input may lead to incorrect measuring values and therefore destroy the generator!
Generator-number Generator number 1..8

0 If there are several generators linked via a bus connection, a different number must
be assigned to each generator. The generator number 1 should even be assigned to
gensets that are running individually.

g3/leo.3501.b/e Page 53/153
4.3.1 Parameteriz ation via the Side Connector (Direct Parameterization)
NOTE
For the parameterization via the side connector (direct parameterization), you need a direct
parameterization cable (order code "DPC"), the program LeoPC 1 (supplied with the cable) and the
corresponding configuration files. Please consult the online help installed when the program is
installed for a description of the LeoPC 1 PC program and its setup.
Remote parameterization For the remote parameterization, the level-two password parameterized at the device
itself must be entered via the parameter "Password level 2",otherwise the values may
only be read but not written. The input via the bus has no effect on the masks dis-
played; which means that, if the device itself is set to code level 0, it will react as de-
scribed above. The only parameterization allowed is via the bus. The parameteriza-
tion via the bus is enabled for 10 minutes following the time moment from which the
parameterization or reading are stopped, afterwards, the password must be param-
eterized again. To load the language, the password must also be entered first. If the
code for the level 2 is entered at the device itself, the parameterization via the bus is
automatically enabled.
WARNING !
If the subsequent parameter "Direct parameter." is set to "ON", the communication with the
terminals X1..X5 via the interface is locked. If the communication via the interface X1..X5 is to be
re-established after the parameterization of the device (e. g. CAN-bus-link via a gateway GW 4), it
is necessary that the subsequent parameter is set to "NO" !
For safety reasons, the direct parameterization is switched off after reaching the ignition speed.
This means, that any further settings of the device parameters are only possible directly via the
display buttons or via the CAN-bus-interface (option Sf). The masks is set from YES to NO (by
means of the software). The mask is then removed and is only displayed again after the ignition
speed is fallen below. The de-activation of the direct parameterization is a safety measure, to
prevent a simultaneous black switching of the generator switches when multiple equipments are
started simultenously (e. g. emergency power request).
load conf.direct Parameterization via the parameterization connector YES/NO

YES YES.......... Parameterization via the side connector is possible, and a CAN-bus-link
which may be established via the terminals X1..X5, is de-activated. The
following conditions must be given for the parameterization via the side
connector:
- a connection must be established between the device and the PC via
the direct parameterization cable,
- the baudrate of the program LeoPC must be set to 9,600 Baud and
- the corresponding parameteization file must be used (file name:
"xxxxxxxp.asm").
NO ........... Parameterization via the side connector is not possible, and a CAN-bus-
link which may be established via the terminals X1..X5, is activated.

the setpoint value is carried out, the higher the value must be to be entered here.
c.) Power Limitation
Power limit Power limitation maximum active load controller 10..120 %

P max.= 000 % If the maximum generator active load is to be restricted, a percentage value referring
to the generator rated power is entered in this mask, according to the preset setting
limits (see page 56). The governor regulates the genset in a way that this value is
not exceeded. The value "Pmax" only restricts the setpoint value of the active load
controller, but is of no importance for the isolated operation.
Power limit Power limitation minimum active load controller 0..50 %

P min.= 00 % If the minimum generator active load is to be restricted, a percentage value referring
to the generator rated power is entered in this mask, according to the preset setting
limits (see page 56). The governor regulates the genset in a way that this value is
not fallen below. This parameter is ignored as far as the set value power control is
concerned.

the terminals 91 and 92) can be switched from 0-20 mA to 4-20 mA, depending on
the setpoint generator.

For example: In case of an insensitivity of 2.5 % and a factor 2.0, insensitivity is increased to
5.0 % after 5 s. In the event that the system deviation then exceeds 5.0 % again, the governor
automatically goes back to its original sensitivity (2.5 %). This input can be used, in the event of
small control deviations, to avoid unnecessarily frequent actuation processes, thereby protect-
ing the adjustment facility.

therefore skipped.
4.5.1 Load-depen dent Start/Stop in Operation in Parallel with the Mains
NOTE
Please note, that the active load sharing must be set to "ON" no matter whether or not another
genset is available for the active load sharing. This guarantees that an automatic start/stop can be
carried out as described below:
Loadd.Start/Stop Load-dependent start/stop to terminal 3 ON/OFF

at ter. 3 ON ON ........... If this mask is switched on and the control input "Automatic 1" is applied
to terminal 3, an automatic start and stop is then carried out due to the
generator setpoint power 1 (see page 59). If the terminal 5 is applied si-
multaneously, the terminal 3 is given preference.
OFF.......... An automatic start and stop is not carried out, but the regulation of the
preset setpoint value is carried out in any case.
Loadd.Start/Stop Load-dependent start/stop to terminal 5 ON/OFF

at ter. 5 ON ON ........... If this mask is switched on and the control input "Automatic 2" is applied
to terminal 5, an automatic start and stop is then carried out due to the
generator setpoint power 2 (see page 59). If simultaneously, the termi-
nal 3 is still applied, the terminal 3 is given preference.
OFF.......... An automatic start and stop is not carried out, but the regulation of the
preset setpoint value is carried out in any case.
The subsequent masks of this option are even displayed if the load-dependent
start/stop has been deactivated on both terminals.
a.) Single Unit in Operation in Parallel with the Mains
The load-dependent start/stop is activated, if

• the operating mode "AUTOMATIC" has been selected and
• additionally, an interchange active power control has been activated by one of the
two digital inputs ("Automatic 1" or "Automatic 2") ("L" or "B"-power), and
• if one or both input masks "Load-dep. start/stop on term. 3/5" are set to "ON".
MOP: gen.minimum Generator minimum setpoint power 0..2,000 kW

load 0000kW For the interchange active load control, the generator setpoint power value is re-
quired. In many cases it is useful to start the genset only after reaching a certain
generator power setpoint, so that the genset is operated with a reasonalbe effi-
ciency. The genset must for example supply a minimum of 40 kW active load to be
started.

Add-on delay Starting delay load-dependent start/stop 0..999 s
mains oper. 000s As soon as the generator starting power is reached, the start can be delayed. In or-
der to avoid that the genset starts after brief load switch-ons, the start-delay time in
seconds can be entered here. In order to guarantee the start of the genset, the
starting power must therefore be interrupted during this period of time.
Shed-off delay Settling time load-dependent start/stop 0..999 s

mains oper. 000s As soon as the generator settle power is reached, the stop can be delayed. In order
to avoid a switching-off of the genset stops after brief load deficits, the stop-delay
time in seconds can be entered here. The settle power must therefore be interrupted
during this period of time, in order to guarantee the stop of the genset.
b.) Settling Hysteresis
NOTE
The subsequent mask specifies the settling hysteresis for the individual gensets while in operation
in parallel with the mains, as well as for the gensets interconnected with other gensets while in
operation in parallel with the mains, and while in isolated operation in parallel with other gensets.
However, it appears only once at this point.
Hysteresis add- Hysteresis load-dependent start/stop 0..999 kW

on/off op. 000kW The settling power of the genset is determined via the hysteresis. The hysteresis
avoids that a genset keeps on starting and then stops again.
c.) Operation in Parallel with the Mains (Mains Incoming Power Control with One Unit)
In general, the following applies:
1st case: Start of the genset If [PNT.setpoint - PNT.acutal > Pstart] the genset starts. (a)
2nd case: Stop of the genset If [PNT.setpoint - PNT.actual + PGN.act.tot < Pstart - Physt] the genset stops. (b)
Example The power consumption (imported power) is 50 kW. This value is entered in the set-
point value mask (see chapter "governor") as "B0050kW". The generator is to be op-
erated with a minimum of 30 kW.
PNT.setpoint = -50 kW... an imported power has to be entered as a negative number, an

exported power as a positive number Zahl.
Pstart = 30 kW............ the minimum power requested by the genset.
Physt = 10 kW............ the power hysteresis for the settle.
If used in the above mentioned formulas, this means:
Example for the 1st case The genset starts at the following imported power: If formula (a) is transposed, it
follows
[PNT.actual < PNT.setpoint - Pstart] ⇒ PNT.actual < - 50 kW - 30 kW = -80 kW ⇒ "B0080 kW"
To start the machine, an imported power of at least 80 kW is necessary. It is then

operated at a minimum power of 30 kW.

Page 70/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
Example for the 2nd case The genset stops if it has to deliver less than the minimum power minus hysteresis.
This is the case at the following generator actual power: If formula (b) is transposed,
it follows
[PGN.act = settling power genset < - PNT.setpoint + PNT.actual + Pstart - Physt]

[PGN.actual < - 50 kW + 50 kW + 30 kW - 10 kW = 20 kW
If the generator falls below its minimum power, minus the hysteresis, it is settled.
Thus, the imported power value remains the same until just before the genset is set-
tled. After settling the generator, the imported power increases to 70 kW.
d.) Interconnection with Other Gensets in Parallel with the Mains (N2PB, Options W/O)
The load-dependent start/stop is activated, if for each device

• additionally, an interchange active power control has been activated by one of the
two digital inputs ("Automatic 1" or "Automatic 2") ("L" or "B"-power), and
• all inputs like Start-/settling power, Start/settling time, selected setpoints, are
identical for all subscribers and
• if one or both input masks "Load-dep. start/stop on term. 3/5" are set to "ON" and
• the input masks "active load sharing" and "reactive load sharing" are set to "ON"
and
• all gensets are given the same rated power.
NOTE
The subsequent parameter is only actived if an additional genset is to be started in operation in

parallel with the mains. The first genset starts due to a generator minimum power, as described for
the individual operation.
Reserve power Stand-by power mains operated, load-dependent start/stop 0..999 kW

mains op. 000kW The start of another genset is specified via the stand-by power. The stand-by power
follows from a currently available total generator rated active load (generator rated
active load × the number of closed generator power circuit breakers), and the current
total generator actual active load. The stand-by power of the system is calculated by
deducting the current total generator actual load from the currently available total
generator rated active load. If this stand-by power is fallen below, the next genset is
started.
total generator-rated active power

- total current generator-actual-active load
= stand-by power
Isolated/mains Priority of gensets 0..8

Priority 0 A forced starting sequence of the individual gensets is obtained with the priority. The
genset with the lowest set number has the highest priority. This gensets will be the
first to start and the last to stop. In case of equal priorities, the starting sequence is
determined by the running hours. The genset with fewer running hours is given pref-
erence. In case of equal running hours, the genset with the lower generator number
is allowed to start.

g3/leo.3501.b/e Page 71/153
e.) Operation in Parallel with the Mains (Mains Incoming Power Control with more Gensets)
3rd case: Start of first genset None of the interconnected generator power circuit breakers has been closed yet.
If [PNT.setpoint - PNT.acutal > Pstart] the genset starts. (c)
4th case: Start of addition. gensets At least one interconnected GCB is closed.
If [PGN.act.sp + Preserve.parallel > Prated.sp] the next genset starts. (d)
5th case: Settle At least two interconnected generator power circuit breakers are closed.
If [PGN.act.sp + Preserve.parallel + Physt + Prated < Prated.sp] the genset stops. (e)
6th case: Settling the last genset Only one of the interconnected generator power circuit breakers is closed.
If [PNT.setpoint - PNT.actual + PGN.act.tot < Pstart - Physt] the genset stops.
Example The imported active load to be regulated is 0 kW. This value is entered in the setpoint
value mask (see chapter "governor") als "B0000kW" (corresponds to "L0000kW").
The stand-by power in the system should be 40 kW. The power hysteresis should be
20 kW. Three machines should be operated interconnected. The rated power of a
genset is 200 kW. The minimum power of a machine should be 30 kW
Prated = 200 kW......... rated power of a genset

Prated sp ..................... Total sum of the rated powers of the gensets with the GCB
closed
PStart tot = 30 kW ....... Minimum power of a genset
PNT.actual .................... Current mains power
PNT.setpoint = B0000 kW setpoint value mains power
PReserve.parallel = 40 kW stand-by power in operation in parallel with the mains
PHyst = 20 kW ........... power hysteresis
AnzGLS ................... Number of the closed power circuit breakers
Example for the 3rd case Imported load at which the first machine is started:
PNT.act < PNT.set - Pstart.gen

PNT.act < 0 kW - 30 kW = -30 kW ⇒ B0030 kW
To start the first machine, an imported power of at least 30 kW is necessary. It is then

operated at a minimum active load of 30 kW.
Example for the 4th case Generator active load at which the second machine is started:
PGN.act > PRated tot - (Preserve.parallel / AnzGLS)

PGN.act > 200 kW – (40 kW / 1) = 160 kW
If the generator active load exceeds 160 kW, the preset stand-by power is fallen be-
low. This way, the next machine is started.

Page 72/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
Example for the 4th case generator active load of each individual machine, at which the third machine is
started:
PGN.act > Prtd.tot - (Preserve.parallel / NoGCB) - Prated

PGN.act > 400 kW – (40 kW / 2) - 200 kW = 180 kW
If the generator actual active load of both machine exceeds 360 kW, (each machine
supplies more than 180 kW), the preset stand-by power is fallen below. This way, the
next machine is started.
Example for the 5th case generator active load of each individual machine, at which the third machine is set-
tled:
PGN.Act.tot < PRated.tot - PReserve.Parallel - P-rated - PHyst

PGN.act.tot < 600 kW - 40 kW - 200 kW - 20 kW = 340 kW
(PGN.act < PGN.act.tot ) / NoGCB = 340 kW / 3 = 113.3 kW
If the generator actual active load of the three machines falls below 340 kW (each
machine supplies less than 113.3 kW), one machine is settled. After settling one ma-
chine, the preset stand-by power is still available.
Example for the 5th case generator active load of each individual machine, at which one of the two machines is
settled:
PGN.Act.tot < PRated.tot - Preserve.parallel - P-rated - Physt

PGN.act.tot < 400 kW - 40 kW - 200 kW - 20 kW = 140 kW
(PGN.act < PGN.act.tot) / NoGCB = 140 kW / 2 = 70 kW
If the generator actual active load of the two machines falls below 140 kW (each ma-
chine supplies less than 70 kW), one machine is settled. After settling the
machine, the preset stand-by power is still available.
Example for the 6th case Generator active load at which the last machine is settled:
PGN.act < - PNT.set + PNT.act + Padd-on.tot. - Physt

PGN.act < - 0 kW + 0 kW + 30 kW - 20 kW = 10 kW
If the generator falls below its minimum active load, minus the hysteresis, it is settled.
Thus, the imported power value remains the same until just before the genset is set-
tled. After settling the generator, the imported power increased to 10 kW.
f.) Isolated Operation in Parallel with Other Gensets (N2PB, Options W/O)
The load-dependent start/stop is activated, if for each device

• all inputs like Start-/settling power, Start/settling time, frequency setpoint values,
are identical for all subscribers and
• if one or both input masks "Load-dep. start/stop on term. 3/5" are set to "ON" and
• the input masks "active load sharing" and "reactive load sharing" are set to "ON"
and
• all gensets are given the same rated power.

isol.op. 000kW The stand-by power follows from a currently available total generator rated active
load (generator rated active load × the number of closed generator power circuit
breakers), and the current total generator actual active load. The stand-by power of
the system is calculated by deducting the current total generator actual load from the
currently available total generator rated active load. If this stand-by power is fallen
below, the next genset is started.
total generator-rated active power

- total current generator-actual-active load

NOTE
The stand-by power should be selected in such a manner to make sure that the expected loast
shifts can be buffered by the genset.
Add-on delay Starting delay load-dependent start/stop 0..999 s

isol.op. 000s As soon as the generator starting power is reached, the start can be delayed. In or-
der to avoid that the genset starts after brief load switch-ons, the start-delay time in
seconds can be entered here. The start power must therefore be interrupted during
this period of time, in order to guarantee the start of the genset.
Stopdelay Settling time load-dependent start/stop 0..999 s

Isol. op. 000s As soon as the generator settling power is reached, the stop can be delayed. In or-
der to avoid a switching-off of the genset stops after brief load deficits, the stop-
delay time in seconds can be entered here. The settling power must therefore be
interrupted during this period of time, in order to guarantee the stop of the genset.
7th case: Genset start If [PGN.act.tot. + Preserve.isol. + > Prtd.tot] the genset starts. (f)
8th case: Genset stop If [PGN.act.tot + Preserve.isol + Physt + Prted + < Prated.tot] the genset stops.
Example Two gensets are operated in isolated operation in parallel with other gensets. One
genset should be operating continuously.
Prated = 200 kW......... rated active load of a genset

Preserve isolated = 60 kW
Physt = 30 kW
PGN.act. > Prated.tot - Preserve.isol

PGN.act > 200 kW - 60 kW = 140 kW
In case of a generator active load exceeding 140 kW, the preset minimum stand-by
power is fallen below. This way, the next machine is started.

Page 74/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
PGN.act.tot. < Prtd.tot. - Preserve.isol.- Prated - Physt

PGN.act.tot. < 400 kW - 60 kW - 200 kW - 30 kW = 110 kW
PGN.act. < PGN.act.tot. / NoGCB = 110 kW / 2 = 55 kW
If, in the event of a decreasing isolated load, the total generator actual active load is
so much reduced, that one single machine is sufficient to supply the stand-by power,
then the second machine is settled.

of the freely parameterizable relays. A load switch-off is therefore possible by means
of an external circuit.

rent (see page 56). If the value of the load imbalance exceeds the set percentage
value, which may occur for instance due to an asymmetric load of the generator, the
generator is switched off.
Example 1 Irated = 100 A

Iimbalance = set to 33 %
The monitor responds, if the difference between a phase and the arithmetic mean
value of all three phases is (100 A × 33 %)/100 % = 33.3 A. The arithmetic mean
value of all three phases is calculated by: 33.3 A × 3 = 100 A. In case of an error
(one phase defectuous) the two remaining phases take over 100 A each. The current
within the two remaining phases is calculated as follows: 100 A/2 phases = 50 A per
healthy phase.
Reading on the display 50/50/0; 70/30/0; 45/55/0; etc.
Example 2 Irated = 100 A

4.8.9 Mains Frequ ency Monitoring
The monitoring of the mains frequency is mandatory if a generator is operated with
the public mains. In case of a mains failure (e. g. short interruption of power supply)
the generator working in parallel with the mains must be automatically disconnected
from the mains. The mains decoupling is only activated, if both power circuit breakers
(mains and generator power circuit breaker) are closed.
Function "Mains frequency not within the admissible range"

The mains frequency is not within the set limiting values for the over- and underfre-
quency respectively. The power circuit breaker which is meant to effect the mains
decoupling, is opened immediately. The prerequisite for the mains frequency moni-
toring is the operation in parallel with the mains (both power circuit breakers closed).

4.8.11 Phase Shift Monitoring
Function A phase shift is a sudden variation of the voltage curve and can be invoked by a
major load change of a generator. In this case, a single change of a cycle duration is
detected by the measuring circuit. The change of the cycle duration is then compared
with a calculated mean value from previous measurements. The monitoring is three-
phased. The threshold in degrees indicates the time difference between mean value
and instantaneous value, referring to a full period. The settings for the monitoring
may vary. The phase shift monitor may be used as an additional device for the mains
decoupling.

displayed.
Monitoring Phase shift monitoring single-/three..only three-phase

only three-phase ON .........................In case of a single phase monitoring of the voltage for a phase
shift, tripping is released if the phase shift exceeds the set
threshold in at least one of the three phases. Note: If a phase
shift occurs in one or two phases, the single-phase threshold is
considered; if a phase shift occurs in all three phases, the three-
phase threshold is considered; This kind of monitoring is very
sensitive and may lead to false trippings, if the settings for the
phase angle are too small.
Only three-phase..In case of a three-phase monitoring of the voltage for a phase
shift, a tripping is only released, if the phase shift exceeds the
set threshold in all three phases within 2 periods.

4.9.2 Denominatio n of the Digital Inputs
NOTE
If the terminal 6 is assigned with the function "sprinkler operation" (see chapter 4.9.3 "Setting the
Function of Terminal 6 " on page 98) or if a gas engine is selected (see chapter 4.12.2
"Determination of the Engine Type " on page 110), the EMERGENCY-OFF function must always be
assigned to the terminal 61.
If the terminal 61 is not designed as a digital input, the digital input with the smallest terminal
number is given the special function EMERGENCY-OFF (usually, this digital input is then the input
with the terminal number 61).
Example Error text terminal 61
alarmtext ter.61 Setting the fault texts for terminals 34..36 and 61..73
EMERGENCY OFF The input of the error texts is made in these masks. The texts for the terminals 61 to
73 are entered (in this example, this is the error text "EMERGENCY OFF"for the
terminal 61). Please make sure to generally assign the terminal 61 with the E-OFF
function.

4.9.3 Setting the F unction of Terminal 6
ATTENTION
The various functions of the terminal 6 are activated at different signal levels!
Function term.6: Function of terminal 6

Sprinkler In this mask, a function is assigned to the digital control input with the terminal 6.
The following functions may be selected:
• sprinkler operation,
• engine release,
• external acknowledgement,
• start without CB.
• Sprinkler By resetting the terminal 6 (application of a Low-level) the sprinkler operation is activated
according to the description of functions. This is terminated by setting terminal 6 (application of
a High signal). Attention: Negative functional logic! (For the function of the sprinkler operation
please also refer to the chapter 2.12 "Sprinkler Operation" on page 36.)
• Motor release Here, the terminal 6 has the same function as the STOP-button: Resetting the terminal 6 (appli-
cation of a LOW-level) avoids that the engine is started and stops a genset which is already
running; the application of a HIGH-level releases the start of the genset. Attention: Via this
function, emergency power operation is also prevented or aborted. Emergency power is not
possible without this release signal! The motor release function is only possible in "AUTO-
MATIC" operating mode.
• ext. acknowledge While in the operationg modes "STOP" and "AUTOMATIC" external errors may be acknowl-
edged by setting the terminal 6 (change of slope from a LOW- to a HIGH-level). In order to
achieve further acknowledgment, terminal 6 must accordingly first be reset and then set again.
If a continuous HIGH signal is present at terminal 6, this has no effect on the acknowledgment
and suppression of fault messages.
• no CB by start If the terminal 6 is set, the genset starts, no synchronization is carried out and the generator
power circuit breaker is not switched on (no switching to the black busbar). The PCB is only
switched on in case of emergency current. After the return of the mains the transfer to the mains
is carried out according to the preset switch logic. The start via the terminal 6 is more significant
than the start via the terminals 3/5. If terminal 6 was selected, the terminals 3/5 are ignored. If,
for the circuit breaker logic "Parallel", the genset is set to operation parallel with the mains, and
if the terminal 6 is activated, the GCB is opened after a power reduction. The genset keeps on
running in no-load operation with the GCB open. By deactivating the terminal 6 the genset is
shut down without coasting.

4.11.2 Relay Mana ger
The relay manager allows to assign a freely selectable combination of functions to
each relay of the terminals 33..38 and 47..48. For this purpose, each possible func-
tion of the device has been assigned with its own individual number. For each relay,
a text describing the logic condition for the picking up of the relay must be entered in
the parameterising menu. Up to three numbers can participate in a logic operation.
The text must be right-justified and no longer than 11 characters. Incorrect function
numbers or incorrect formula constructions are detected and not accepted by the de-
vice.
NOTE
The list of functions and numbers for the relay manager can be found in the chapter 6.2 "Relay

firing speed by Terminal 62 as discrete dynamo input ON/OFF
Term. 62 ON OFF.......... The digital input terminal 62 serves as a standard digital input.
ON ........... The logic to be set applies to the starting procedure:
If the input is set to operating current, the starter is disengaged when a
signal is applied. After the termination of the delayed engine monitoring,
the "operating current" is still programmed, however, internally, the de-
vice switches over to the "closed-circuit current" logic, in order to enable
the generation of an error tripping in the event of a voltage loss (including
set time lag). The same principle, inverted, also applies to the closed-
circuit current tripping. The digital input is programmed for closed-circuit
current, to disengage the starter in the event of a voltage loss. After the
delayed engine monitoring, the digital input is internally set to operating
current and is therefore tripped as soon as voltage is applied.

5 Commission
DANGER !!!
When commissioning the unit, please observe the five safety rules which apply to the handling of
live equipment. Make sure that you know how to provide first aid in current-related accidents and
that you know where the first-aid kit and the nearest telephone are. Never touch any live
components of the system or on the back of the system:
DANGER TO LIFE
WARNING !
The unit may only be commissioned by a qualified technician. The "EMERGENCY-OFF"-funciton

must be safely working prior to the commissiong, and must not depend on the device.
ATTENTION
1. Prior to the commissiong make sure that all measuring voltages are connected in
correct phase sequence. The connect commands for the power circuit breakers
must be disconnected at the power circuit breakers. The rotating field must be
measured. Any lack or incorrect connection of measuring voltages or other signals may
lead to incorrect functions and damage the unit as well as engines and components
connected to the unit.
Procedure 2. After making sure that all measuring phases are connected in correct phase relation, the
supply voltage (8..36 V DC) may be applied to the device.
3. By simultaneously depressing the two buttons 13 "digit↑" and 14 "position→" you go to the
input and test mode. After inputting the code number, all parameters are first set. (See the
Chapter regarding input masks).
4. After applying the supply voltage do check if all measuring values ( voltages, currents,
power, responses of the power circuit breakers as well as the analog inputs) are correctly
indicated. The unit must only be started if the power circuit breaker replies are correct.
5. First start the driving genset via the operating mode "MANUAL" (depressing the button
25 "MANUAL") ( 20 "START") and then stop it ( 21 "STOP"). All generator measuring values
must be checked. Please check all error trippings.
6. Do check the automatic starting procedure via the operating mode "TEST" (depressing
the button 23 "TEST"). Test alarms caused by faults with shutoff.
7. Operating mode "AUTO" (Depressing the button 22 "AUTO"): An automatic start, followed
by a synchronization, can now be effected by applying the automatic control inputs and the
motor request.
Control of the synchronisation: Check the rotating field of the generator and the generator
busbar. Check the add-on command with a zero voltmeter (determination of the phase an-
gle) at the generator power circuit breaker. If several trouble-free synchronizing pulses
were output, switch to operating mode STOP and reconnect the add-on pulse "Command:
Close GCB" with the unit at a standstill.

Page 118/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
8. If points 1 to 7 have been carried out successfully, an operation in parallel with the mains
can be started with a fixed value power (approx. 25 % of the generator rated power).
Whilst this is being carried out, the displayed measuring values must be checked. Check
GCB shutoff. Check the active load controller and, if necessary, the cos ϕ-controller. Pre-
specify various setpoint values and check control.
9. If the operation in parallel with the mains is satisfactory, the synchronisation of the mains
circuit breaker has to be checked:
At this point at the latest, it has to be made sure that the device has cleared or responded
to a power failure. During operation in parallel with the mains the unit must be switched to
MANUAL operating mode; the mains power circuit breaker is then deactivated. (LED re-
sponse MCB ON goes out). Then switch back to the operating mode AUTOMATIC.
Check the rotating field of the generator bus bar and the mains. Check the connect com-
mand with a zero voltmeter (determination of the phase angle) at the mains power circuit
breaker. If several trouble-free synchronizing pulse were output, go to the operating mode
STOP, and reconnect the add-on pulse "Command: MCB close" with the unit at a stand-
still.
10. Check the emergency power functions.
NOTE
The function in automatic mode is influenced via the available input signals "Automatic 1" and
"Automatic 2". Please note, that the responses of the power circuit breakers have to processed
inverted, i. e., with the power circuit breaker closed, 0 V must be applied to the inputs "CB open"
(auxiliary contact of the power circuit breaker used as abreak contact! - please also see the
description of the auxiliary and control inputs in the annex of this operating manual). It is vital that
these replies be connected!
Isolation between power supply and digital control and response inputs
By means of an appropriate external wiring, the common reference point of the digital in-
puts can be galvanically isolated from the supply voltage (0 V, terminal 2) . This may be for
instance necessary, if the digital inputs are no longer to be controlled with 24 V= and a
galvanic isolation between the control voltage (e. g. 220 V=, 220 VAC) and the supply
voltage must be ensured.

to be detected.
77 Malfunction "Reply: MCB is open" - fault on opening 2 s following the "Command:
MCB open" a reply continues
to be detected.
78 Power supplied by the mains <> 0 In the event of interchange
synchronization, the incoming
power zero cannot be ad-
justed. As a result of this, the
MCB is prevented from open-
ing. Reset via acknowledg-
ment.
79 Isolated operation in parallel with other gensets /operatin in parallel with the mains
80 Synchronization on MCB and NPB Relay is set if,
1.) MCB synchronized
2.) if MCB + GCB are closed
(NPB)
3.) if GCB synchronized on
closed MCB
→ no synchronization on IPB
→ for voltage controllers which
are only operated in parallel
with the mains.

Page 136/153 g3/leo.3501.b/e
b.) Frame Data for the Hardware Handshaking RTS/CTS (RS232)
Data Length of characters 8 Bit

Stop bit .......................... 1 Bit
Parity bit......................... 1 Bit with even parity
Data format.................... 16 Bit binary values
Transmitting rate............ 9600 baud. Other baud rates on request. The records are
transferred cyclically.
Procedure If the transmitter is ready for the data transmission, it informs the receiver by setting
its control wire RTS into the "ON"-status. The prerequisite of this is that no data are
received (CTS = "OFF"). The receiver registers this status and indicates its readiness
for reception by switching its RTS line to "ON". The transmitter can then begin trans-
mitting when it detects this "ON" status on its CTS line. As soon as the receiver with-
draws its RTS signal (RTS = "OFF"), the transmitter interrupts its transmission and
waits until the receiver is ready to receive again. The initialization conflict (both sub-
scribers set the RTS line simultaneously) and time-out (one subscriber waits un-
sucessfully for a reply) must be taken into consideration.
c.) Encoding of the Current Direction
The current direction can be recognized via the code word prefix. A positive trans-
mitted value means outgoing supply (power output), a negative transmitted value
means power consumption (incoming supply).
d.) Encoding of the Power Default
The following power values may be prespecified: Fixed value power (F-power),
Lieferleistung (L-power) and incoming power (B-power) (see operating manual). The
active power setpoint is transmitted in binary form using bits 0..13. The control argu-
ment must be transmitted in the basis of bits 14 and 15. In this case, the following
coding applies:
Control argument Bit 15 = Bit 14

F power 0 1
L power 0 0
B power 1 1
Examples:
F power of 150 kW is to be compensated. The value transmitted is then:
01/00 0000 1001 0110 B Î 4096 H
L power of 300 kW is to be compensated. The value transmitted is then:

00/00 0001 0010 1100 B Î 012C H
B power of 600 kW is to be compensated. Negative power is transmitted. The value

transmitted is then:
11/11 1101 1010 1000 B Î FDA8 H
