Installation Guidelines for 60 Hz Air-Cooled Generators 35
Before Initial Start-up
NOTE: The unit has been run and tested at the factory
prior to being shipped and does not require any type of
break-in.
NOTE: The unit comes filled with 5W-30 weight organic
oil from the factory. Check the oil level and add the
appropriate viscosity and amount if necessary.
Installation Wizard
The Installation Wizard immediately appears upon initial
power-up. It allows the user to input generator settings.
See Figure 7-2.
The Installation Wizard starts every time AC and DC
power are removed and reapplied to the generator.
Interconnect System Self Test Feature
This controller goes through a system self test at power-
up, which will check for the presence of utility voltage on
the DC circuits. This check prevents damage if the
installer incorrectly connects AC utility power sense wires
into the DC terminal block. The controller will display a
warning message and lock out the generator, preventing
damage to the controller, if utility voltage is detected at
the DC terminal block. Power to the controller must be
removed to clear this warning.
Utility voltage must be turned on and present at the N1
and N2 terminals inside the generator control panel for
this test to be performed and pass.
NOTE: All appropriate panels must be in place during
any operation of the generator. This includes operation
by a servicing technician while conducting
troubleshooting procedures.
Before starting, complete the following:
1. Verify generator is OFF.
2. Set generator main circuit breaker to OFF (OPEN).
3. Turn OFF all breakers to be powered by the
generator.
4. Verify auxiliary shutdown switch(es) are CLOSED
(I).
5. Check engine crankcase oil level and, if necessary,
fill to the dipstick FULL mark with the
recommended oil. Do not overfill.
6. Check fuel supply. Gaseous fuel lines must have
been properly purged and leak tested in
accordance with applicable fuel-gas codes. All fuel
shutoff valves in the fuel supply lines must be
open.
NOTE: During initial start-up only, the generator may
exceed the normal number of start attempts and
experience an “OVERCRANK” fault. This is due to
accumulated air in the fuel system during installation.
Reset the control board by pressing the OFF mode
button and ENTER button, and restart up to two more
times if necessary. Contact an IASD for assistance if unit
fails to start.

CAUTION
Engine damage. Verify proper type and quantity of
engine oil prior to starting engine. Failure to do so
could result in engine damage.
