GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION This manual describes the Woodward 723PLUS Digital Control hardware,
9906-619 (low voltage) 9906-620 (high voltage), 9907-243 (Wärtsilä, low
voltage), and 9907-244 (Wärtsilä, high voltage). These part numbers are EU
Directive compliant components.
DECLARATION In accordance with the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC and its amendments, this
OF controlling device, manufactured by the Woodward Governor Company, is
INCORPORATION applied solely as a component to be incorporated into a prime mover system.
Woodward Governor declares that this controlling device complies with the
requirements of EN50081–2 and EN50082–2 when put into service per the
installation and operating instructions outlined the product manual.
NOTICE: This controlling device is intended to be put into service only upon
incorporation into a prime mover system that itself has met the requirements of
the above Directive and bears the CE mark.
APPLICATION The 723PLUS Digital Control can be programmed to suit applications requiring
two magnetic pickups (MPUs) or proximity switches (e.g. for torsional filtering)
as the hardware includes two speed inputs. It also includes four analog inputs,
three analog outputs, eight discrete inputs and three discrete outputs, all of which
can be programmed to satisfy the application. The control can be used in load
sharing systems as it contains circuitry and connections to support this.
The two LON channels can be used to support Woodward LonTalk® or LinkNet®
input/output nodes control functions.
The 723PLUS control (Figure 1-1) consists of a single printed circuit board in a
sheet-metal chassis. Connections are via three terminal strips and three 9-pin
subminiature D connectors.
CONTROL The 723PLUS control requires the following power supply input voltages, with 40
OPTIONS watts as the nominal power consumption at rated voltage:
• 18–40 Vdc (24 or 32 Vdc nominal)
• 90–150 Vdc (125 Vdc nominal)
Discrete input voltages provide on/off command signals to the electronic control.
Each discrete input requires 10 mA at its 24 Vdc nominal voltage rating (for 24
volt switching logic).
The control may be used with either proximity switches (see NOTE) or magnetic
pickups. The minimum frequency for steady state speed control is 30 Hz. For
more information see Control Specifications (inside back cover).
NOTE
EU Directive compliant applications are not currently able to use
proximity switches due to the sensitivity of the switches.
723PLUS • Hand Held Programmer (Figure 1-2), part number 9907-205, can be used
DIGITAL for adjusting the 723PLUS control. It plugs into serial port J1 of the
CONTROL control. This part is EU Directive compliant.
ACCESSORIES
• SPM-A Synchronizer, for synchronizing the generator phase to that of the
power bus. The synchronizer generates a close generator breaker signal to
parallel the generator with the power bus.
• Power Output Sensor, for load sharing or droop operation in mechanical
load applications.
• Real Power Sensor, for load sharing or droop-parallel generator
applications.
• Digital Synchronizer and Load Control (DSLC) for generator load
management.
• Rack Position Sensor, for mechanical load sharing.
• Load Pulse Unit, for improved system load transient response.

INSTALLATION
SCOPE This chapter contains general installation instructions for the 723PLUS control.
Power requirements, environmental precautions, and location considerations are
included to help you determine the best location for the control. Additional
information includes unpacking instructions, electrical connections, and
installation checkout procedures.
UNPACKING Before handling the control, read Chapter 2, Electrostatic Discharge Awareness.
Be careful when unpacking the electronic control. Check the control for signs of
damage such as bent panels, scratches, and loose or broken parts. If any damage is
found, immediately notify the shipper.
POWER The high-voltage versions of the 723PLUS Digital Speed Control require a
REQUIREMENTS voltage source of 90 to 150 Vdc. The low-voltage versions require a voltage
source of 18 to 40 Vdc.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the control, do not exceed the input voltage
range.
NOTE
If a battery is used for operating power, an alternator or other battery-
charging device is necessary to maintain a stable supply voltage.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the control, make sure that the alternator or
other battery-charging device is turned off or disconnected before
disconnecting the battery from the control.
LOCA TION Consider these requirements when selecting the mounting location:
CONSIDERATIONS
• adequate ventilation for cooling
• space for servicing and repair
• protection from direct exposure to water or to a condensation-prone
environment
• protection from high-voltage or high-current devices, or devices which
produce electromagnetic interference in excess of levels defined in
EN50082–2
• avoidance of vibration
• selection of a location that will provide an operating temperature range of
–40 to +70 °C (–40 to +158 °F)
WARNING
Explosion Hazard—Substitution of components may impair
suitability for Class I, Division 2.
Explosion Hazard—Do not disconnect equipment unless power has
been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous.
AVERTISSEMENT
Risque d’explosion—La substitution de composants peut rendre ce
matériel inacceptable pour les emplacements de Classe 1, Division 2.
Risque d’explosion—Avant de déconnecter l’équipement, coupler le
courant ou s’assurer que l’emplacement est désigné non dangereux.
NOTE
Installation wiring must be in accordance with Class I, Division 2
wiring methods in Article 501–4(b) of the NEC, and in accordance
with the authority having jurisdiction.
INTERNAL The 723PLUS control has ten, two-position internal jumpers (JPR1 through
JUMPERS JPR20) located on the top of the printed circuit board. If it is necessary to change
any jumper to match your control requirements, and this suits the nature of the
software, be sure to read Chapter 2, Electrostatic Discharge Awareness.
Remove power and all inputs. Wait 45 seconds, then remove cover. With your
fingers or a small pair of tweezers, carefully remove the appropriate jumper and
replace it securely over the proper two connectors (see Figure 3-1).
ELECTRICAL External wiring connections and shielding requirements for each installation are
CONNECTIONS shown in Chapter 5 of the software manual appropriate to the application.
Shielded Wiring All shielded cable must be twisted conductor pairs. Do not attempt to tin the
braided shield. All signal lines should be shielded to prevent picking up stray
signals from adjacent equipment. Connect the shields to the nearest chassis
ground. Wire exposed beyond the shield should be as short as possible, not
exceeding 50 mm (2 inches). The other end of the shields must be left open and
insulated from any other conductor. DO NOT run shielded signal wires along with
other wires carrying large currents. See Woodward application note 50532,
Interference Control in Electronic Governing Systems for more information.
Where shielded cable is required, cut the cable to the desired length and prepare
the cable as instructed below.
1. Strip outer insulation from BOTH ENDS, exposing the braided or spiral
wrapped shield. DO NOT CUT THE SHIELD.
2. Using a sharp, pointed tool, carefully spread the strands of the shield.
3. Pull inner conductor(s) out of the shield. If the shield is the braided type, twist
it to prevent fraying.
4. Remove 6 mm (1/4 inch) of insulation from the inner conductors.
Power Supply Power supply output must be low impedance (for example, directly from
(Terminals 1/2) batteries). DO NOT power the control from high-voltage sources with resistors
and zener diodes in series with the control power input. The 723PLUS control
contains a switching power supply which requires a current surge to start
properly.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the control, do not power a low-voltage control
from high-voltage sources, and do not power any control from high-
voltage sources with resistors and zener diodes in series with the
power input.
Run the power leads directly from the power source to the control. DO NOT
POWER OTHER DEVICES WITH LEADS COMMON TO THE CONTROL.
Avoid long wire lengths. Connect the positive (line) to terminal 1 and negative
(common) to terminal 2. If the power source is a battery, be sure the system
includes an alternator or other battery-charging device.
CAUTION
Do NOT apply power to the control at this time. Applying power may
damage the control.
To prevent damage to the engine, apply power to the 723PLUS
control at least 60 seconds prior to starting the engine. The control
must have time to do its power up diagnostics and become
operational. Do not start the engine unless the green POWER AND
CPU OK indicator on the 723PLUS control cover comes on, because
test failure turns off the output of the control.
Analog Outputs Use shielded twisted-pair wires to connect to terminals 15(+) & 16(–) and 17(+)
(#1 & #2) & 18(–). For an electrically isolated input device such as a 4 to 20 mA input
(Terminals 15/16 analog meter, the shield should be grounded at the control end of the cable. For
& 17/18) input to other devices, use the recommendation of the device manufacturer.
CAUTION
To prevent possible damage to the control or poor control
performance resulting from ground loop problems, we recommend
using current-loop isolators if the 723PLUS control's analog inputs
and outputs must both be used with non-isolated devices. A number
of manufacturers offer 20 mA loop isolators. Consult Woodward
Governor Company for further information.
Actuator Outputs The actuator wires connect to terminals 19(+) & 20(–) and 21(+) & 22(–). Use
(#1 & #2) shielded wires with the shield connected to chassis at the control.
(Terminals 19/20
& 21/22)
Speed Signal Connect a magnetic pick-up (MPU) or proximity switch (see NOTE on page 2) to
Inputs (Terminals terminals 11 and 12. You may need to connect a second MPU/proximity switch to
11/12 & 13/14) terminals 13 and 14 (see relevant application manual). Use shielded wire for all
speed sensor connections. Connect the shield to the chassis. Make sure the shield
has continuity the entire distance to the speed sensor, and make sure the shield is
insulated from all other conducting surfaces.
WARNING
The number of gear teeth is used by the control to convert pulses
from the speed sensing device to engine rpm. To prevent possible
serious injury from an overspeeding engine, make sure the control is
properly programmed to convert the gear-tooth count into engine
rpm. Improper conversion could cause engine overspeed.
Load Sharing Connect the output of a Woodward Load Sensor, or another 723PLUS control's
Lines Input load sharing lines, to terminals 9(+) and 10(–). Use a shielded twisted-pair cable.
(Terminals 9/10) Wire the remainder of the load sensor in accordance with the wiring diagram for
the sensor used.
Discrete Inputs For Lloyd’s Register of Shipping applications, use only isolated contacts (dry
(Terminals 29–36) or signal rated) for the discrete inputs. Power these contacts from the
control-supplied Aux Voltage.
Discrete inputs are the switch input commands to the 723PLUS control. In low
voltage systems, or other systems where nominal 24 Vdc is available, the discrete
inputs should be powered by this external voltage.
If you are using the control-supplied aux voltage, jumper terminal 37 to terminal
38. This connects the control's common to the discrete input common. Terminal
39 then supplies power (approximately +24 Vdc) to the discrete inputs. Since the
aux voltage is not isolated from other control circuits, use only isolated contacts
(dry or signal voltage rated) for the discrete circuits. DO NOT POWER ANY
OTHER DEVICES WITH THE AUX VOLTAGE SOURCE.
If you are supplying the discrete input voltage (24 Vdc), connect the voltage
source negative (–) to terminal 37 (DO NOT INSTALL THE JUMPER FROM
TERMINAL 37 TO 38). Then run the voltage source positive (+) to the
appropriate switch or relay contact and then to the corresponding discrete input.
Analog Inputs Use shielded twisted-pair cable to connect to terminals 42(+) & 43(–), 45(+) &
(#1, #2, #3, & #4) 46(-), 48(+) & 49(–), and 51(+) & 52(–). Ensure that a jumper is installed between
(Terminals 42/43, relevant terminals (41 & 42–#1, 44 & 45–#2, 47 & 48–#3, 49 & 50–#4) for the
45/46, 48/49, & 51/ mA input. These inputs are not isolated from the other control inputs and outputs
52) (except the power supply input and the discrete inputs). If any other analog input
or output is used in a common ground system, an isolator must be installed. A
number of manufacturers offer 20 mA loop isolators. Consult Woodward
Governor Company for further information.
INSTALLATION With the installation complete, do the following checkout procedure before
CHECKOUT beginning set point entry or initial start-up adjustments.
PROCEDURE
1. Visual inspection
A. Check the linkage between the actuator and fuel metering device for
looseness or binding. Refer to the appropriate actuator manual, and
Manual 25070, Electric Governor Installation Guide for additional
information on linkage.
WARNING
To prevent possible serious injury from an overspeeding engine, the
actuator lever or stroke should be near but not at the minimum
position when the fuel valve or fuel rack is at the minimum fuel
delivery position.
B. Check for correct wiring in accordance with the plant wiring diagram,
(see relevant Application Manual).
C. Check for broken terminals and loose terminal screws.
D. Check the speed sensor(s) for visible damage. If the sensor is a
magnetic pickup, check the clearance between the gear and the sensor,
and adjust if necessary. Clearance should be between 0.25 and 1.25 mm
(0.010 and 0.050 inch) at the closest point. Make sure the gear runout
does not exceed the pickup gap.
2. Check for grounds
Check for grounds by measuring the resistance from all control terminals to
chassis. All terminals except terminals 2 and 24 should measure infinite resistance
(the resistance of terminals 2 and 24 depends on whether a floating or grounded
power source is used). If a resistance less than infinite is obtained, remove the
connections from each terminal one at a time until the resistance is infinite. Check
the line that was removed last to locate the fault.
723PLUS I/O
SERIAL PORT The 723PLUS has two serial ports for communications. They may be software
COM MUNICATIONS configured as RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485. These ports may be software
configured to function as MODBUS communications ports at the time the
application software is written. If the J2 and J3 port are configured as a MODBUS
port, they will support either MODBUS ASCII or MODBUS RTU protocols.
Termination For RS-422, termination should be located at the receiver when one or more
transmitters are connected to a single receiver. When a single transmitter is
connected to one or more receivers, termination should be at the receiver farthest
from the transmitter. Figure 3-3 is an example.
For RS-485, termination should be at each end of the cable. If termination can’t be
located at the end of a cable, put it as close as possible to the ends. Figure 3-4 is an
example.
If you do not know if a master can put its transmitter into a high-impedance state,
terminate the line as shown in Figure 3-3. It does not hurt to terminate the line
even when it is not needed as in the case of the OpTrend operator interface.
Figure 3-5. 723PLUS RS-232 Connections Figure 3-6. 723PLUS RS-422 Connections with
Optional Termination at Receiver
Figure 3-7. 723PLUS RS-422 Connections with Figure 3-8. 723PLUS RS-485 Connections
Optional Termination at Transmitter with Optional Termination
Grounding and The RS-422 and RS-485 specifications state that a ground wire is needed if there
Shielding is no other ground path between units. The preferred method to do this is to
include a separate wire in the cable that connects the circuit grounds together.
Connect the shield to earth ground at one point only. The alternate way is to
connect all circuit grounds to the shield, and then connect the shield to earth
ground at one point only. If the latter method is used, and there are non-isolated
nodes on the party line, connect the shield to ground at a non-isolated node, not at
an isolated node. Figures 3-9 and 3-10 illustrate these cabling approaches.
NOTE
Non-isolated nodes may not have a signal ground available. If signal
ground is not available, use the alternate wiring scheme in Figure
3-10 with the signal ground connection removed on those nodes
only.
Figure 3-9. Preferred Multipoint Wiring Using Shielded Twisted-pair Cable with
a Separate Signal Ground Wire
NOTE
The SG (signal ground) connection is not required if signal ground is
unavailable.
Special Setup Node Addresses. The LinkNet modules each have rotary switches that set the
Procedures module address. Before installing or replacing the modules, insure that the
addresses are set to the value listed on the hardware description for that module.
CHAPTER 4
ENTERING CONTROL SET POINTS
INTRODUCTION Due to the variety of installations, plus system and component tolerances, the
723PLUS control must be tuned to each system for optimum performance.
This chapter contains information on how to enter control set points through the
control's menu system using the Hand Held Programmer. If you have access to the
Watch Window software tool and ServLink software, you can set up and tune the
723PLUS control from a PC (personal computer) using the instructions in Chapter
5 of this manual.
WARNING
An improperly calibrated control could cause an engine overspeed or
other damage to the engine. To prevent possible serious injury from
an overspeeding engine, read this entire procedure before starting
the engine.
HAND HELD The Hand Held Programmer is a hand-held computer terminal that gets its power
PROGRAMMER from the 723PLUS control. The terminal connects to the RS-422 communication
AND MENUS serial port on the control (terminal J1). To connect the terminal, slightly loosen the
right-hand screw in the cover over J1 and rotate the cover clockwise to expose the
9-pin connector. Then firmly seat the connector on the terminal into J1.
The programmer does a power-up self-test whenever it is plugged into the control.
When the self-test is complete, the screen will display two lines of information.
This is information relating to the application. Pressing the ID key will change the
display to show the part number of the software and version letter.
The 723PLUS has two sets of menus—the Service menus and the Configure
menus. The Service menus allow easy access and tuning while the engine is
running. The Configure menus may be entered only if the I/O is shutdown (hence
the engine stopped).
Configure Menus To access the Configure menus, the engine must be shut down. Press the • key.
The display will show, “To select configure, press enter”. Press the ENTER key
and the display will show, “To shutdown I/O, press enter”. Press the ENTER key
and this will allow you into the Configure menus.
NOTE
If the engine is running during this process, it will be shut down due
to shutting down the I/O of the control.
To move between the menus use the LEFT ARROW and RIGHT ARROW keys.
To move through the set points within a menu, use the UP ARROW and DOWN
ARROW keys. Once within a menu, to return to the menu header, press the ESC
key.
To leave the Configure menus press the ESC key. The set points will be
automatically saved when leaving Configure.
Service Menus To access the Service menus press the DOWN ARROW key. To move between
menus, and to move through set points within menus follow the instructions as for
the Configure menus. Also to return to return to the menu header, or to leave
Service, follow the Configure instructions.
Adjusting Set To adjust a set point, use the TURTLE UP or the RABBIT UP keys to increase the
Points value, and the TURTLE or RABBIT DOWN keys to decrease the value. The
RABBIT UP and RABBIT DOWN keys will make the rate of change faster than
the TURTLE UP and TURTLE DOWN keys. This is useful during initial setup
where a value may need to be changed significantly. Where necessary, to select
TRUE, use either the TURTLE UP or the RABBIT UP keys, and to select FALSE,
use the TURTLE DOWN or RABBIT DOWN keys.
To obtain an exact value, press the = key. Key in the required figure and press
ENTER.
NOTE
This may be done only if the figure is within 10% of the existing
value.
To save set points at any time, use the SAVE key. This will transfer all new set
point values into the EEPROM memory. The EEPROM retains all set points when
power is removed from the control.
CAUTION
To prevent possible damage to the engine resulting from improper
control settings, make sure you save the set points before removing
power from the control. Failure to save the set points before
removing power from the control causes them to revert to the
previously saved settings.
Hand Held The programmer keys do the following functions (see Figure 4-1):
Programmer (left arrow) Moves backward through Configure or Service, one menu at
Keys a time.
(right arrow) Advances through Configure or Service, one menu at a time.
(up/down arrow) Toggles between the two displayed items.
(up arrow) Moves backward through each menu, one step at a time.
(down arrow) Advances through each menu, one step at a time. Selects
Service from Main Screen.
(turtle up) Increases the displayed set point value slowly.
(turtle down) Decreases the displayed set point value slowly.
(rabbit up) Increases the displayed set point value quickly (about 10
times faster than the turtle keys).
(rabbit down) Decreases the displayed set point value quickly (about 10
times faster than the turtle keys).
– (minus) Increases set point values by one step at a time.
+ (plus) Decreases set point values by one step at a time.
(solid square) Not used.
ID Displays the 723PLUS control part number and software
revision level.
ESC To return to menu header or to main screen.
SAVE Saves entered values (set points).
BKSP Scrolls left through line of display.
SPACE Scrolls right through line of display.
ENTER Used when entering exact values and accessing Configure.
= (equals) For entering exact values (within 10%).
• (decimal) To select Configure.
CHAPTER 5
USING SERVLINK WITH WATCH WINDOW
USING WATCH Here are brief instructions for using the Watch Window in conjunction with
WINDOW ServLink to view the variables for your 723PLUS control on a PC (personal
computer). These instructions are meant to be introductory only. Full on-line help
is available in each application. It is assumed that you already have Servlink and
Watch Window installed. The default installation location can be found by
clicking the START icon (Microsoft Windows 95 or later) on the main menu bar
and then clicking the PROGRAMS menu item. Look for an icon called
WOODWARD WATCH WINDOW.
1. Make sure that all other programs that may access your computer
communications port are shut down.
2. Get the right cable to talk from your PC to the control (5416-614 will work for
J2 and J3, 5416-870 for J1).
3. Start the Servlink server and open a new file. Select the proper COM port for
your PC, verify that POINT TO POINT communications mode is selected,
and verify that the baud rate matches the baud rate of the 723PLUS. The
default baud rate is 19 200. See the on-line help file if you have been changing
the port settings of your control.
4. Select OK. If everything is working right, you should see an animated picture
of a string of “1”s and “0”s flying from the control to the PC on your screen.
You now have a network definition file whose default name is NET1. You
should save this file as “your filename.NET” (use FILE/SAVE AS). Link this
name to your control part number, as it will work only with that application.
For instance, if the upper level control number is 9907-031, you could save
the file as 9907031.NET. DO NOT DISCONNECT THE SERVER.
5. In the Servlink window you will now have another dialog window titled “your
filename.net”. In this window you will see a ballhead icon and a control
identifier name. Unless you have given the control a serial number (or name)
with the SLSN.EXE program, this name will display as “<unidentified>”.
6. Start the Watch Window application. When Watch executes, you will have a
screen displaying three windows entitled Watch Window, Explorer, and
Inspector.
7. The Explorer window will have two groups displayed, SERVICE and
CONFIGURE. Double clicking on either of these will expand them to show
groups of values. Explorer is used only to locate a tunable or monitor value. In
order to change a value or monitor a value, you must drag and drop a value
from the Explorer window into the Inspector window.
8. Once a value is displayed in the Inspector, you can see several blocks of
information. The most important blocks for a tunable value are the FIELD and
VALUE blocks. The FIELD block is used to identify a particular value, and
the VALUE block displays the current value of a variable. There are two
types of values available in Watch. One is a monitor value, which is marked
in the INSPECTOR window with a pair of glasses. This means it may only be
looked at. The other value is a read/write value, which is marked with a
pencil. The read/write type may be modified using the up and down arrows in
the value block.
DOWNLOADING NOTE that this is the only way to download to a 723PLUS, and it will not work
TO THE 723PLUS on a regular 723.
1. Make sure that all other programs that may access your computer’s
communication port are shut down.
2. Get the right cable to talk from your PC to the control J1 port (5416-870).
3. Start the Servlink server and open a new file. From the dialog window, select
the proper COM port for your PC, select POINT TO POINT communications
mode, and set the baud rate to 19200.
4. Select OK. If everything is working right, you should see an animated picture
of a string of “1”s and “0”s flying from the control to the PC on your screen.
You now have a network definition file whose default name is NET1. You
should save this file. Link this name to your control part number as it will only
work with that application. For instance if the upper level control number is
9907-031, you could save the file as 9907031.NET. DO NOT DISCONNECT
THE SERVER.
5. In the Servlink window you will now have another dialog window titled “your
filename.net”. In this window you will see a ballhead icon and a control
identifier name. Unless you have given the control a serial number (or name)
with the SLSN.EXE program, this name will display as “<unidentified>”.
6. Start the Watch Window program. Under the title bar in the Explorer window
you will find a tab with your network file and the control ID displayed. Right
click this tab to display the pop-up menu, and select LOAD APPLICATION.
This will close the Inspector window and open a new window where you will
enter the name of the file you want to download. Once the filename is correct,
click on the OPEN button. A Warning screen will ask you to make sure the
engine is shut down before downloading. Downloading will proceed
automatically once your accept the message to shut down the engine.

of knowing in advance what the cost will be. All repair work carries a 180-day
warranty on replaced parts and labor.
Flat Rate Flat Rate Remanufacture is very similar to the Flat Rate Repair option with the
Remanufacture exception that the unit will be returned to the user in “like new” condition and
carry with it a full 3-year warranty. This option is applicable to mechanical
products only.

ADDITIONAL Woodward Aftermarket Services offers the following after-sale support for all
AFTERMARKET Woodward products:
PRODUCT
• Customer Training
SUPPORT
SERVICES • Technical Assistance
• Field Service
• Specialized Services
Field Service engineers are dispatched from the Woodward facility in Colorado,
or from one of many regional or worldwide offices located near the customer to
provide prompt response. Woodward field engineers are experienced and are
continually updated on all Woodward products as well as much of the non-
Woodward equipment they interface with. The field engineers ensure that all
documentation is updated, and all field engineers are well informed as to new
problems which might arise. Woodward field service engineers are on-call 24
hours a day. Call the number above and ask for field service.
Specialized Services can be tailored to the specific needs of the customer. These
services can be based on a particular aspect of a single service or a combination of
services and are covered under one low-cost service contract. A contract may be
for regularly scheduled training courses or possibly to have a field engineer visit
the customer site at pre-determined intervals to provide a system analysis, verify
proper operation, and make recommendations for maintenance improvements,
enhancements, or other needs. These contracts are usually custom-designed and
structured to allow ultimate flexibility, thereby allowing the customer to plan and
budget more accurately. For more details, contact the Woodward sales
representative, or call the number above and ask for sales support to discuss
specific needs.
SYSTEM The following is a general troubleshooting guide for areas to check which may
TROUBLE- present potential difficulties. By making these checks appropriate to your engine/
SHOOTING turbine before contacting Woodward for technical assistance, your system
GUIDE problems can be more quickly and accurately assessed.
Valves • Does the valve move through it’s proper stroke smoothly?
• Does the valve travel it’s full stroke?
• Can mid-stroke be obtained and held?
• Does the valve fully seat (close) before the governor reaches full
minimum stroke?
• Does the valve fully open before the governor reaches maximum stroke?
• Is the bypass valve(s) (if any) in the proper position?
• If a steam turbine, are there nicks or contamination which allow steam to
pass when the valve is closed?
Control, Alarm, • Does the governor indicate it is in the correct control mode?
And Fault
• Is the governor issuing any alarms?
Indications
• Are any of the components of the governor indicating hardware faults?
• Does the actuator demand agree with the actual valve position?
• Are any shutdown conditions present?
• Have the control dynamics been tuned to match the system response?
Magnetic Pickups • Is the wiring between the speed sensing pickup and the control correct?
And Other Speed
• Are there any grounding problems or worn shields?
Sensing Devices
• Is the signal sufficient (at least 1.5 Vrms)?
• Is the signal a clean sine wave or square wave with no spikes or
distortions?
• Is the MPU head clean and free of oil or metallic particles?
• Is the MPU head free of any nicks or chips?
• Is the MPU or proximity probe correctly aligned with the gear?
• Is the speed sensing probe adjusted to the correct gap?
• Is the speed sensing probe head the correct size for the toothed wheel it is
being used with?
Input Voltage/ • Is the input power within the range of the control’s power supply input?
Power Supplies
• Is the input power free of switching noise or transient spikes?
• Is the power circuit dedicated to the governor only?
• Are the control’s supplies indicating that they are OK?
• Are the control’s supplies outputting the correct voltage?
External Devices • Are there external devices the control is dependent on for input signals?
• Are these devices providing the correct signal to the control?
• Is the external device configured or programmed to be compatible with
