8.0 Operation.
DES-11 is an engine monitoring and supervisor unit.
The engine can be Started/Stopped from the front panel of DES-11 or externally by means of key
Switch etc. The start / stop from the front or remote is one touch operation, meaning that once the
switch is pressed the start /stop command shall be operational till the “Crank time or DG start
detection / Stop Sol Time” , as programmed, has expired . DES-11 automatically detects that the
engine on conditions by monitoring the generator voltage and starts monitoring the engine for
under/over voltage, LLOP, HWT and emergency faults. On detection of any of these faults for the
pre-programmed duration the engine is automatically shut down and fault along with run hour is
recorded in non-volatile memory.
The run hour time of engine is recorded in internal non-volatile memory.

9.2 Fault History.
To view the last 20 fault history enters in this mode as explained above. Maximum of last 20
faults along with Run Hour stamp shall be displayed on the LCD. The first row shall display
the fault and the next row shall display the run hour at which the fault has occurred. The next
fault can be viewed by pressing “NEXT”. The mode shall exit to normal mode after the last
fault recording is displayed. Absence of any fault recoding shall not display any fault data.
9.3 Resting Service Hours.
Service due, warning is issued by DES-11, by flashing the Ser LED. This LED shall keep
flashing till it is not reset by entering this mode.

9.4 Programming Solenoid Mode

For changing the solenoid mode first press (R) (reset) button, than press + button while
the reset button is pressed.
Fuel Solenoid In this mode fuel solenoid contact changes from Open to Close at the time
of cranking and remains close till the genset is running. For stopping the generator this
contact opens.
Stop Solenoid In this mode fuel solenoid contact remains open at the time of cranking
and till the genset is running. For stopping the generator this contact closes for a user
programmed time.
Don’t change the mode while generator is running. It’s a good practice to switch OFF
and than switch ON the battery supply after changing this mode.

10.0 Faults
There are two categories of faults
 Internal Faults
 External faults

10.1 Internal Faults

Internal faults are the faults, which do not need any external signals and are detected by the system
itself. They are:
 Generator Voltage Unhealthy.
 Generator Over & under frequency.
 Generator Over Load
 LLOP
 Fuel
 HWT (Model –A)
10.2 External Faults
Those faults which cannot be sensed by the unit itself (these faults are not reflected by the generator
voltage) and are to be provided externally. They are:
 Canopy Temperature (Model-B)
 RWL (Model-A)
 HCT (Model-B)
10.3 Fault Reset
All internal faults can be reset by pressing (R) switch after the generator is stopped. In case the
engine fails to stop “STOP KEY” can be pressed for manual attempt to stop engine.

11.0 Communication Setup.

DES-11 can be used in 2 modes of communication:
a) RS232 mode : For connection to a PC or a MODEM.
b) SMS Mode : If a GSM modem, with SIM, is connected to the RS232 link
of the unit, the unit shall be able to send alarm through SMS. The Genset can
also be controlled remotely via SMS.

11.1 SMS Operation

DES-11 can store up to five GSM enabled telephone numbers. In case of any fault,
or starting/stopping of the generator, a SMS shall be send to all the active telephone
numbers. This SMS shall include the fault details, the engine running/not running
information, the voltage, current, battery voltage and run hour information.
The owner of the first 2 telephone numbers can, on demand, access the above
information through SMS by sending an SMS toAC3. The SMS is “STATUS”,
without quotes and all capital.

11.2 Feeding Telephone numbers:

Up to five telephone numbers can be stored in DES-11.
To feed the numbers switch off DES-11, press the Reset and  Switch and while
they are pressed power on the unit.
The display shall display
X C.No
+91ZZZZZZZZZ
The first row “X” indicates the cursor position.
The second row displays the telephone number.
The first number is always +.

-
If the next digit is 0. It signifies that this particular number is not in use.
The digit at the cursor positions can be modified by pressing key. The digits shall
change from 0-9 and blank.
The blank digit signifies the end of the telephone number. The digits after this shall
be discarded.
To go to next digit press  key.
Continue till the desired number is programmed.
Make sure that the last digit after the valid number is a blank.
To go to next telephone number press Key.
The process can be terminated and all previous programmed numbers can be stored
by pressing R (Reset) Key
