LOGGING 
(TROUBLESHOOTING 
AID) 
Stepper Pos (steps) 
The 
throttle 
shaft 
is 
controlled 
by 
a 
stepper 
motor. 
The 
value 
displayed 
is 
in 
steps. 
Zero 
steps 
being 
the 
closed 
position. 
Most 
units 
will 
run 
at 
no 
load 
in 
the 20 to 30 steps 
rllnge. 
These 
values 
will 
vary 
from 
engine 
to 
engine. 
PulseWi.dth 
This 
is 
the 
fueling 
duration in milliseconds 
(ms). 
The 
value 
will 
be 
lower at 
no 
load 
than 
at 
full 
load. 
Main Fuel Comp 
(%) 
This 
is 
the 
fueling 
compensation that is derived 
from 
a value 
in 
the 
fuel 
table, 
which 
is 
based 
on 
the 
engine 
rpm 
and 
the 
MAP 
pressure. 
Air 
Temp 
and 
Engine 
Temp 
Comp 
(%) 
This 
is 
the 
fueling 
compensation 
based 
on the 
air 
temperature 
and 
engine 
temperature. 
This 
value 
can 
be 
both 
positive 
and 
negative. 
This 
value 
is 
added 
or 
subtracted 
from 
the 
Main 
Fuel 
Compensation 
value. 
Speed P, I & D Terms 
These 
values 
reflect 
the 
engine 
speed 
governing 
process. 
These 
values 
are 
constantly changing 
and 
it is 
very 
hard 
to 
get 
any 
information 
from 
them. 
The 
only 
thing I 
can 
say 
on 
the subject 
is 
that you 
should 
see 
these 
values 
constantly 
changing. 
If 
for 
some 
reason there 
are 
all 
zeroes 
in 
these 
columns 
than 
the 
engines 
is 
probably 
not 
running. 
Da-rated P Term 
The 
code 
provides 
for 
the 
P 
(Proportional) 
Term, 
in 
the 
Speed 
PID 
control, 
to 
be 
de-rated right 
after 
start-up 
for 
a short 
period 
of 
time. 
This 
allows 
the 
engine 
to 
warm 
up 
with 
out 
having 
an 
aggressive 
P 
value 
which 
could 
cause "hunting" or instability 
when 
the 
engine 
is 
cold. 
On 
some 
older 
units 
there 
is 
also 
a 
trim 
pot 
on the 
top 
on the 
ECU 
that 
can 
manually 
de-rate 
the 
P 
value. 
This 
will 
be 
reflected 
in 
this 
box. 
Frequency Option 
This 
is 
the 
value 
of the 
speed 
selector 
on 
the 
ECU, 
whether 
it 
is 
50 
or 60Hz. 
Some 
interfaces 
may 
not 
show 
this 
column 
but 
will 
display 
the 
Frequency 
Option 
in 
the Title area at 
the 
top 
on 
the 
data 
log. 
Gen. Frequency 
The 
Generator 
Frequency 
is 
a function of 
engine 
speed. 
For 
most applications, 
50 
Hz 
operation 
is 
with 
an 
engine 
speed 
of 
1500 
tpm, 
while 
60Hz operation 
is 
with an.engine speed of 
1800 
tpm. 
Note: 
Belt 
driv~ 
applications 
will 
be 
different, 
check 
your 
owner's 
manual 
for 
engine 
speed.
