1. INSTALLATION
1.1 Introduction to the Control Panel
The unit is a control and protection panel used in gensets. It shows the measured values on its
displays. The unit is designed to provide user friendliness for both the installer and the user.
Programming is usually unnecessary, as the factory settings have been carefully selected to fit most
applications. However programmable parameters allow the complete control over the generating set.
Programmed parameters are stored in a Non Volatile Memory and thus all information is retained even
in the event of complete loss of power.
The measured parameters are:
Mains voltage phase L1 to neutral

Mains voltage phase L1-L2
Gen voltage phase L1 to neutral
Gen current phase L1
Gen frequency
Engine speed (rpm)
Gen phase L1 KW
Gen phase L1 cos

1.2 Mounting the Unit
The unit is designed for panel mounting. The user should not be able to access parts of the
unit other than the front panel.
Mount the unit on a flat, vertical surface. The unit fits into a standard panel meter opening of
92x92 millimeters. Before mounting, remove the mounting brackets and connectors from the unit, then
pass the unit through the mounting opening. The unit will be maintained in its position by the mounting
brackets spring.
Engine body must be grounded for correct operation of

the unit, otherwise incorrect voltage and frequency
measurements may occur.
The output of the current transformers shall be 5 Amperes. The input current rating of the current
transformers may be selected as needed (between 10/5 and 9000/5 amps). Current transformer outputs
shall be connected by separate cable pairs from each transformer, to related inputs. Never use common
terminals or grounding. The power rating of the transformer should be at least 5 VA. It is recommended to
use 1% precision transformers.
If analogue senders (e.g. temperature, oil pressure or fuel level) are connected to the unit, it is not
possible to use auxiliary displays, otherwise the unit may be damaged. If temperature or oil pressure or
fuel level displays are already present on the generator control panel, do not connect the senders to the
unit. The unit is factory programmed for VDO type senders. However different types of senders are
selectable via programming menu. Please check the programming section.
The programmable digital inputs are compatible with both normally open and normally
closed contacts, switching either to BAT- or BAT+.
The charge alternator connection terminal provides also the excitation current, thus it is not
necessary to use an external charge lamp.
1.3 Wiring the Unit
WARNING: THE UNIT IS NOT FUSED.

Use external fuses for Mains phases: L1,L2,L3,
Generator phase: L1, Battery positive: BAT(+).
Install the fuses as nearly as possible to the unit in a
place easily accessible for the user.
The fuse rating should be 6 Amps.
WARNING: ELECTRICITY CAN KILL

ALWAYS disconnect the power BEFORE connecting the unit.
1) ALWAYS remove the plug connectors when inserting wires with a screwdriver.
2) An appropriate and readily accessible set of disconnection devices (e.g.
automatic fuses) MUST be provided as part of the installation.
3) The building mains supply MUST incorporate appropriate short-circuit backup
protection (e.g. a fuse or circuit breaker) of High Breaking Capacity (HBC, at
least 1500A).

4. ALARMS AND WARNINGS

Alarms indicate an abnormal situation in the generating set are divided into 3 priority levels:
1- ALARMS: These are the most important fault conditions and cause:
- The ALARM led to be on steadily,
- The genset contactor to be released immediately,
- The engine to be stopped immediately,
- The Horn, Alarm, Alarm+Load_dump and Alarm+Load_dump+Warning digital
outputs to operate, (if selected via programming menu)
2- LOAD_DUMPS: These fault conditions cause:

- The ALARM led to flash,
- The genset contactor to be released immediately,
- The engine to be stopped after Cooldown period,
- The Horn, Alarm+Load_dump and Alarm+Load_dump+Warning digital outputs to
operate, (if selected via programming menu)
3- WARNINGS: These conditions cause:

- The WARNING led to be on steadily,
- The Horn and Alarm+Load_dump+Warning digital outputs to operate, (if selected
via programming menu)
If the ALARM MUTE button is long pressed, the Horn output will be deactivated; however
the existing alarms will persist and disable the operation of the genset.
Alarms operate in a first occurring basis:

-If an alarm is present, following alarms, load_dumps and warnings will not be accepted,
-If a load_dump is present, following load_dumps and warnings will not be accepted,
-If a warning is present, following warnings will not be accepted.
Alarms may be of LATCHING type following programming. For latching alarms, even if the alarm
condition is removed, the alarms will stay on and disable the operation of the genset. The existing alarms
may be canceled by pressing one of the operating mode buttons ( TEST / OFF / AUTO).
Most of the alarms have programmable trip levels. See the programming chapter for adjustable
alarm limits.
LOW OIL PRESSURE: Set if a signal is detected at the Low Oil Pressure Switch input or the oil
pressure value measured from the sender is below the programmed limit. Warning and alarm limits are
separately programmable for the oil pressure sender input. This fault will be monitored with Holdoff
Timer delay after the engine is running. Also if the oil pressure switch is open at the beginning of a start
attempt, then the engine will not be started and Oil Pressure Exists! information is displayed. When
the oil pressure switch closes, normal operation will be resumed.
HIGH TEMPERATURE: Set if a signal is detected at the High Temperature Switch input or the coolant
temperature value measured from the sender is above the programmed limit. Warning and alarm limits
are separately programmable for the temperature sender input.
LOW TEMPERATURE (warning) : Set if the coolant temperature value measured from the sender is
blow the Engine Heating Temperature limit.
LOW FUEL: Set if the the fuel level measured from the sender is below the programmed limit. Warning
and alarm limits are separately programmable for the fuel level sender input.
EMERGENCY STOP: Set if a signal is detected at the emergency stop input.
SPARE-1 / SPARE-2: Set if a signal is detected from the related spare fault input.

DKG-109 User Manual V-27 (14.04.2011)
LOW SPEED / HIGH SPEED: Set if the generator frequency is outside programmed limits. These faults
will be monitored with Holdoff Timer delay after the engine is running. Low and high limits for warning
and alarm are separately programmable. Another high frequency shutdown limit which is 12% above the
high limit is always monitored and stops the engine immediately.
START FAIL (alarm): Set if the engine is not running after programmed number of start attempts.
STOP FAIL (warning): Set if the engine has not stopped before the expiration of the Stop Timer.
OVERLOAD (load_dump): Set if the genset phase current goes over the Overcurrent Limit for
Overload Timer. If the current goes below the limit before expiration of the timer then no alarm will be set.
EXCESS POWER (load_dump): Set if the genset phase power (KW) supplied to the load goes over the
Excess Power limit for Overload Timer. If the power goes below the limit before expiration of the timer
then no alarm will be set.
GENSET LOW VOLTAGE: Set if any of the generator phase voltages goes outside programmed limits
for Overload Timer. This fault will be monitored with holdoff timer delay after the engine is running.
GENSET HIGH VOLTAGE: Set if any of the generator phase voltages goes outside programmed limits
for Overload Timer. This fault will be monitored with holdoff timer delay after the engine is running.
LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE (warning): Set if the battery voltage goes below the programmed limit.
During engine cranking this fault is not monitored.
HIGH BATTERY VOLTAGE: Set if the battery voltage goes above programmed limits. Both warning and
alarm levels for high battery voltage are programmable.
CHARGE: Set if a charge alternator failure (or broken belt) occurs. This fault condition may result to a
warning or alarm following programming.
MAINS PHASE ORDER FAIL (warning): Set if the mains phase order checking is enabled, mains
phases are present and mains phase order is reversed. This fault prevents the Mains Contactor to close.

DKG-109 User Manual V-27 (14.04.2011)
5. MODES OF OPERATION
The modes of operation are selected by pushing the front panel keys. Changing the operation
mode while the genset is running will result into a behavior suitable for the new operating mode. For
example, if the AUTO mode is selected when genset is running at RUN mode, if mains phase voltages
are present then the genset will stop.
STOP: In this mode, the mains contactor will be energized if mains phase voltages are within the
programmed limits. The engine will be stopped.
AUTO: It is used for genset and mains automatic transfer. If at least one of the mains phase voltages is
outside limits, the mains contactor will be deactivated.
The diesel will be started for programmed times after the preheat timer. When the engine runs, the crank
relay will be immediately deactivated. The engine will run without load during engine heating period. After
this, if alternator phase voltages and frequency are within limits, then the unit will wait for the generator
contactor period and the generator contactor will be energized.
When all the mains phase voltages are within the limits, the engine will continue to run for the mains
waiting period. At the end of this period the generator contactor is deactivated and the mains contactor will
be energized. If a cooldown period is given, the generator will continue to run during cooldown period. At
the end of the period, the fuel solenoid will be de-energized and the diesel will stop. The unit will be ready
for the next mains failure.
RUN: It is used to test the generator when the mains are on, or keep the generator running in the
emergency backup mode. The operation of the generator is similar to the AUTO mode, but the mains
contactor will not be deactivated if the mains are not off. If the mains are off, mains contactor will be
deactivated and the generator contactor will be activated. When the mains are on again, a changeover to
the mains will be made, but the engine will be kept running unless another mode is selected. To stop the
engine, select AUTO or STOP mode.
6. OTHER FEATURES
6.1 Remote Start Operation
The unit offers the possibility of REMOTE START mode of operation. Any digital input may be
assigned as Remote Start Input using Input Function Select program parameters.
The REMOTE START signal may be a NO or NC contact, switching to either battery positive or
battery negative. These selections are made using programming menu.
It is also necessary to set the ACTION program parameter of the related input to 3 in order to
prevent any alarm from this input.
In this mode the mains phases are not monitored. If the REMOTE START signal is present
then the mains will be supposed to fail, inversely if the REMOTE START signal is absent, then mains
voltages will be supposed to be present.

DKG-109 User Manual V-27 (14.04.2011)
6.2 Sender type Selection
The unit has the ability to adapt to any type of oil pressure and temperature senders. The
commonly used standard sender characteristics are recorded in memory and selectable from a list.
However non standard senders may also be used by entering their characteristics to the table.
Oil Pressure Sender Type Selection:

Selectable sender types are:
0: Sender characteristics are defined in Sender Characteristics table.
1: VDO 0-7 bars (10-180 ohms)
2: VDO 0-10 bars (10-180 ohms)
3: DATCON 0-7 bars (240-33 ohms)
Temperature Sender Selection:

Selectable sender types are:
0: Sender characteristics are defined in Sender Characteristics table.
1: VDO
2: DATCON DAH type
3: DATCON DAL type
Fuel Level Sender Selection:

The Fuel Level Sender Ohms is also programmable.
6.3 Engine Heating Operation
Especially on engines without a body heater, or with a failing one, it may be desired that the
genset should not take the load before reaching a suitable temperature. The unit offers 2 different
ways of engine heating.
1. Timer controlled heating:

This operation mode is selected when the Engine Heating Method parameter is set to 0. In this
mode, the engine will run during parameter Engine Heating Timer, and then the genset will take the
load.
2. Timer and temperature controlled heating:

This operation mode is selected when the Engine Heating Method parameter is set to 1. In this
mode, at first the engine will run during parameter Engine Heating Timer, then it will continue to run
until the measured coolant temperature reaches the limit defined in parameter Engine Heating
Temperature. When the requested temperature is reached, the load will be transferred to the genset.
This operation mode may be used as a backup to the engine body heater. If the engine body is warm
the heating will be skipped.

DKG-109 User Manual V-27 (14.04.2011)
6.4 Engine Idle Speed Operation
It may be required that the engine runs at the idle speed for a programmed duration for engine
heating and cooldown. The idle operation duration is adjusted with the parameter Idle Speed Timer.
The idle speed will be set by the governor control unit of the engine.
Any of the spare relay outputs may be assigned as IDLE output using Relay Definition
program parameters. Also relays on an extension module may be assigned to this function.
The Idle speed operation is performed both in engine start-up and cool-down sequences.
Speed and voltage protections are disabled during idle speed operation.
6.5 Engine Block Heater
The unit is able to provide a relay output in order to drive the block heater resistor.
The temperature reference is the coolant temperature measured from the the analog sender
input.
The block heater relay function may be assigned to spare relays using Relay Definition
The engine body temperature limit is adjusted using the parameter Engine Heating
Temperature. The same parameter is used for engine heating operation.
The relay will become active if the body temperature falls to 4 degrees below the limit set by
Engine Heating Temperature. It turns off when the body temperature exceeds Engine Heating
Temperature.
6.6 Fuel Pump Control
The unit is able to provide a relay output in order to drive the fuel pump motor. The fuel pump
is used in order to transfer fuel from the large capacity main tank (if exists) to the genset daily tank
which is generally integrated in the chassis and has a limited capacity.
The fuel level reference is measured through the analog fuel level sender. When the
measured fuel level falls below Fuel Pump Low Limit parameter, the fuel pump relay output will
operate. When the fuel level reaches Fuel Pump High Limit parameter, the relay will turn off. Thus
the chassis fuel tank level will be always kept between Fuel Pump Low Limit and Fuel Pump High
Limit parameters.
The fuel pump relay function may be assigned to spare relays using Relay Definition program
parameters. Also relays on an extension module may be assigned to this function.

6.7 Mains Simulation (Disable Start)
The unit offers an optional SIMULATE MAINS signal input. Any digital input may be assigned
as Simulate Mains using Input Function Select program parameters.
prevent any alarms generated from this input.
The SIMULATE MAINS signal may be a NO or NC contact, switching to either battery positive or
battery negative. These selections are made using the programming menu.
If the Simulate Mains input is defined and the input signal is active, the mains phases are not
monitored and supposed to be inside limits. This will prevent the genset from starting even in case of a
mains failure. If the genset is running when the signal is applied, then usual Mains Waiting and
Cooldown cycles will be performed before engine stop. When the SIMULATE MAINS signal is present,
the front panels mimic diagrams mains LEDs will reflect the mains voltages as present.
When the signal is passive, the unit will revert to normal operation and monitor the mains
voltage status.
The REMOTE START operation overrides SIMULATE MAINS and FORCE

TO START operations.

DKG-109 User Manual V-27 (14.04.2011)
6.8 Delayed Mains Simulation, Battery Charging
The Delayed Mains Simulation feature is used in battery backed up telecom systems where
batteries are able to supply the load during a certain period. The genset is requested to run only when
battery voltage drops below the critical level. Once the engine runs, the rectifier system starts charging
the batteries and the battery voltage goes up immediately. Thus the engine should continue to run a
programmed period for effective charging. The critical battery voltage level will be detected by an
external unit which provides the digital Simulate Mains signal for the genset control unit.
The unit offers an optional SIMULATE MAINS signal input. Any digital input may be assigned
as Simulate Mains using Input Function Select program parameters.
The SIMULATE MAINS signal may be a NO or NC contact, switching to either battery positive or
battery negative. These selections are made using the programming menu.
If the Delayed Simulate Mains program parameter is set to 1 and the input signal is active
when the genset is not feeding the load, the mains phases are not monitored and supposed to be
inside limits. This will prevent the genset from starting when the simulate mains signal is present
(batteries charged). The genset will start when mains voltages are out of limits and the simulate mains
signal not present.
If the genset is running when the signal is applied, then MAINS SIMULATION will be
prevented during Flashing Relay Timer program parameter. After this, usual Mains Waiting and
Cooldown cycles will be performed before engine stop. When the SIMULATE MAINS signal is present,
the front panels mimic diagrams mains LEDs will reflect the mains voltages as present.
When the signal is passive, the unit will revert to normal operation and monitor the mains
voltage status.
The REMOTE START operation overrides DELAYED SIMULATE MAINS

operation. When both parameters Remote Start Operation and
Delayed Simulate Mains are set then REMOTE START operation mode
is performed.

DKG-109 User Manual V-27 (14.04.2011)
6.9 Dual Genset Mutual Standby Operation

Dual genset intermittent operation consists of regular switching of the load between 2 gensets.
The use of 2 gensets instead of one is due either to safety purposes in case of a genset failure or to a
continuous operation requesting service stops.
The running period for each genset is adjustable using Flashing Relay Timer program
parameter. If the time is adjusted as 0 hours, it will be actually set to 2 minutes for faster testing
purposes.
A flashing relay output function is provided, based on the parameter Flashing Relay Timer.
Each time the period programmed using Flashing Relay Timer elapses, the relay output will change
position.
The flashing relay function may be assigned to spare relays using Relay Definition program
parameters. Also relays on an extension module may be assigned to this function.
The dual genset intermittent operation uses also the Mains Simulation feature. Please review
chapter 6.7 for a detailed explanation of this feature.
Priority In Dual Genset Mutual Standby Operation:

It may be required that the dual genset system starts the same genset at every mains failure.
This is achieved using the PRIORITY input.
Any digital input may be assigned as Priority using Input Function Select program
parameters.

6.10 Periodic Service Request Monitoring
The periodic maintenance is basically carried out after a given engine hours (for example 200
hours), but even if this amount of engine hours is not fulfilled, it is performed after a given time limit (for
example 12 months).
The SERVICE REQUEST function has no effect on the genset

operation.
The unit has both programmable engine hours and maintenance time limit. The engine hours is
programmable with 50-hour steps, the time limit is programmable with 1 month steps. If any of the
programmed values is zero, this means that the parameter will not be used. For example a maintenance
period of 0 months indicates that the unit will request maintenance only based on engine hours, there will
be no time limit. If the engine hours is also selected as 0 hours this will mean that the SERVICE
REQUEST function will be inoperative.
When the engine hours OR the time limit is over, the SERVICE REQUEST warning will occur and
the display will switch to the ALARM LIST.
The service request relay function may be assigned to spare relays using Relay Definition
To reset the service period, press together the ALARM MUTE

and OFF keys for 5 seconds.
The remaining engine hours and the remaining time limit are kept stored in a non-volatile memory
and are not affected from power supply failures.
The time and engine hours to service are displayed in the STATISTICAL COUNTERS menu.
6.11 Engine Hour Meter
The unit features a non-erasable incremental engine hour meter. The hour meter information is
kept in a non-volatile memory and is not affected from power supply failures.

6.13 SMS Message Sending
The GSM SMS sending is activated by setting the SMS Enable program parameter to 1.
If SMS Enable or MODBUS Address parameters are different from zero, the local
PC connection will not work.
When a fault condition occurs, the unit will compose an SMS message and will send it to up to 6
phone numbers.
The unit is also able to send SMS messages in below conditions, without creating a visible alarm
or warning:
Mains Fail, Mains Restored (enabled via SMS on Mains Change program parameter)
Fuel Theft, Fuelling (enabled by setting the Fuel Consumption / Hour parameter to other than 0)
When SMS sending is in progress, an (SMS) icon will appear at the upper right corner of the
screen.
The maximum number of alarms transmitted in a SMS message is 4. This limitation is due to the
maximum length of an SMS message which is 160 characters.
A sample GSM SMS message is given below:
DKGxxx <SITE-ID>
STOP :LOW OIL PRESSURE SW.
END OF ALARM LIST
The first line of the message carries information about the unit type and the site identity string.
This line is intended for the identification of the genset sending the SMS message.
Each following line will give one fault information. The message will always be terminated by the
END OF ALARM LIST string.
When the message is sent, the existing alarms will be masked, causing the audible alarm relay to
release and preventing consecutive GSM SMS messages. Any new upcoming alarm will result in a new
GSM SMS message. The new message will indicate all existing alarms, even masked ones.
A logic level to RS-232 converter is necessary in order to connect the unit

to modem.
The necessary GSM modem cable will be supplied by DATAKOM. This is the same cable as

The fuel solenoid of a gas engine is different from a diesel engine. It should be opened after
the cranking has been started and should be closed between crank cycles. The delay between the
crank start and solenoid opening is adjusted using the Gas Solenoid Delay program parameter.
The gas engine fuel solenoid relay function may be assigned to spare relays using Relay
Definition program parameters. Also relays on an extension module may be assigned to this function.
6.18. Load Shedding / Dummy Load

The load shedding feature consists on the disconnection of the least crucial loads when the
genset power approaches to its limits. These loads will be supplied again when the genset power falls
below the programmed limit. The internal Load Shedding function is always active. Any of the auxiliary
relays may be used as the load shedding output.
The dummy load function consists on the connection of a dummy load if the total genset load
is below a limit and to disconnection of the dummy load when the total power exceeds another limit.
The dummy load function is the inverse of the load shedding function, thus the same output may be
used for both purposes.
The parameters used in Load Shedding feature are in the Electrical Parameters Group:
Load Shedding Low Limit: If the genset active power output goes below this limit, then the Load
Shedding relay will be deactivated.
Load Shedding High Limit: If the genset active power output goes above this limit, then the Load
Shedding relay will be activated.

12. TROUBLESHOOTING
The genset operates while AC mains are OK or continues to operate after AC mains are OK:
-Check engine body grounding.

-AC mains voltages may be outside programmed limits, measure the phase voltages.
-Check the AC voltage readings by pressing the MENU button.
-Upper and lower limits of the mains voltages may be too tight. Check the parameters Mains Voltage
Low Limit and Mains Voltage High Limit. Standard values are 170/270 volts.
-The hysteresis voltage may be given to excessive. The standard value is 8 volts.
AC voltages or frequency displayed on the unit are not correct:
-Check engine body grounding, it is necessary.

-The error margin of the unit is +/- 3 volts.
-If there are faulty measurements only when the engine is running, there may be a faulty charging
alternator or voltage regulator on the engine. Disconnect the charging alternator connection of the
engine and check if the error is removed.
-If there are faulty measurements only when mains are present, then the battery charger may be
failed. Turn off the rectifier fuse and check again.
KW and cos readings are faulty although the Amp readings are correct:
-The current transformer is connected with reverse polarity. Reverse the CT terminals.
When the AC mains fails the unit energizes the fuel solenoid, but does not start and OIL
PRESSURE EXISTS ! message is displayed:
The unit is not supplied with battery (-) voltage at the oil pressure input.
-Oil pressure switch not connected.
-Oil pressure switch connection wire cut.
-Oil pressure switch faulty.
-Oil pressure switch closes too lately. If oil pressure switch closes, the unit will start. Optionally oil
pressure switch may be replaced.
The engine does not run after the first start attempt, then the unit does not start again and OIL
PRESSURE EXISTS ! message is displayed:
-The oil pressure switch closes very lately. As the unit senses an oil pressure, it does not start. When
oil pressure switch closes the unit will start. Optionally the oil pressure switch may be replaced.
- 43 -
DKG-109 User Manual V-27 (14.04.2011)
When the AC mains fails, the engine starts to run but the unit gives START FAIL alarm and
then the engine stops:
-The generator phase voltages are not connected to the unit. Measure the AC voltage between
terminals GEN L1 and Generator Neutral at the rear of the unit while the engine is running. A fuse
protecting the generator phases may be failed. A misconnection may be occurred. If everything is OK,
turn all the fuses off, and then turn all the fuses on, starting from the DC supply fuse. Then test the
unit again.
The unit is late to remove engine cranking:
-The generator voltage rises lately. Also the generator remnant voltage is below 20 volts. The unit
removes starting with the generator frequency, and needs at least 20 volts to measure the frequency.
If this situation is to be avoided, the only solution is to add an auxiliary relay. The coil of the relay will
be between BATTERY (-) and charging alternator D+ terminal. The normally closed contact of the
relay will be connected serially to the unit's START output. So the starting will also be removed when
the D+ pulls to battery positive.
The unit is inoperative:
Measure the DC-supply voltage between terminals 19 and 22 at the rear of the unit. If OK, turn all the
fuses off, then turn all the fuses on, starting from the DC supply fuse. Then test the unit again.
Some program parameters are skipped:
These parameters are reserved for factory setting and cannot be modified.
