PC Based HMI (Touchscreen)
The HMI is a combined industrial PC and 10.4’’ (264 mm) color touchscreen for monitoring and control of the
generator set. Data is displayed in layered menus. The screen is mounted on a console on the front of the GCP with
gaskets between the touchscreen and the enclosure for environmental protection. It is complete with a real time clock, with
separate battery backup and incorporates flash memory.
The HMI’s main role is to read and display data, the genset is still available and fully protected in the unlikely
event of any loss of communication or function. Fault information and real-time data originates from the PCS,
engine controller or PLC. The screens HMI will display a mixture of data from some or all of these devices.
There are nine application screens and 2 fault monitoring screens dedicated to displaying data about certain
aspects of the genset and their descriptions are:
The GENERATOR MAIN SCREEN is the HMI ‘home’ screen. Much of the principal data that an operator might
require is available from this screen and access to all other screens is provided from this location by selecting the
appropriate button.
The main screen is designed to enable the operator to determine the current genset status. It further allows access
to the data embedded in the layered screens.

Reset Switch
Clears the digital display and status panel and allows the genset to start after a fault condition has been corrected.
Adjustment Menu
Allows the operator to set basic genset parameters. Adjustments are limited to help prevent operator error and
potential damage to equipment. Critical parameters are adjustable only via a security access code.
Adjustments include:
• Voltage (+/- 5%)
• Automatic Voltage Regulator Gain (access code protected)
Critical service level adjustments are possible only after entering an access code. All adjustments are made
through digital raise/lower switches from the front of the facia.
The adjustment being digitally displayed.
Adjustments for automatic voltage regulation are performed directly at the control facia by using the security code
without the need to enter the GCP enclosure.
Status Indicators
Three dual element LED indicating lamps provide basic genset status data on the facia. Solid state indicators on
internal circuit boards provide further status and diagnostic data.
Non-Automatic Indicator
When the Run/Off/Auto switch is in the OFF or RUN position the red non-automatic indicator will flash on and off.
Warning Indicator
The amber light indicates the status screen is displaying a warning condition. The reset switch is used to clear the
message after the warning condition is corrected.
© 2004 Cummins Power Generation Specifications subject to change without notice S-1473 (11/04)
Shutdown Indicator
A red light indicates the status screen is displaying a shutdown condition. The reset switch is used to clear the
message after the shutdown condition is corrected.
The digital display provides status of the following critical engine functions :
• Battery voltage
• Speed
• Overspeed
• Magnetic pick up failure (shutdown)
On sensing a warning or shutdown condition the control displays the warning or shutdown message, lights the
warning or shutdown indicator lamp on the front of the facia and displays a code number which is interpreted by the
PLC and displayed at the HMI in an easy to understand format. These codes are also displayed on the PCC facia
and can be cross-referenced using the genset manual.
The control has provisions for four programmable fault conditions. These may be either warning or shutdown
conditions. Labels for customer faults can be programmed into the control.
The control maintains an historical data log of the latest alarm and status conditions on the genset.
Historical data
AC Output Metering
Combines digital and analog metering to provide accurate digital readouts plus analog indication of trends and operating
conditions.
Analog Meters
Analog metering on the control facia provides clear indication of generator set stability from a ‘walk by’ perspective to avoid
the requirement to start the HMI screen if it is in screen save mode.
The kilowatt meter and ammeter are scaled in percent of AC output for easy recognition of genset status and load level
0 - 90% of rating ; green, 90 - 100% of rating ; amber =100% of rating ; red.)
Kilowatt Meter
Indicates 3-phase AC power output as a percent of rated load. Provides a true indication of total kW load on the
genset, regardless of the load power factor.
Frequency Meter
Indicates genset output frequency in hertz. Calculated frequency is based on engine speed and alternator voltage
zero-crossing and is not affected by voltage waveform distortion caused by non-linear loads.
Scale is 45 - 65 Hz.
Accuracy is +/- 5%.
© 2004 Cummins Power Generation Specifications subject to change without notice S-1473 (11/04)
AC Voltmeter
AC Ammeter
Allows the operator to select the phase monitored by the analogue ammeter and voltmeter. LED indicators display
which phase is being monitored and which voltage scale is applied.
Digital Metering
The digital metering display provides access to alternator performance data and a more accurate readout of the AC
output information displayed on the analogue meters. The following outputs are displayed:
• Genset Output Voltage (3-phase, line to line or line to neutral)
• Genset output current (3-phase)
• Power factor (0 to 1, leading or lagging)
• AC kilowatts
• AC kilowatt-hours
• Alternator exciter duty and governor duty (%)
• Genset output frequency (Hz)
The voltage and current data for all three phases is displayed simultaneously on a single screen so lead and voltage
balance is readily apparent.

from 0.5 to 5 seconds.
Control System :
Automatically resets bus frequency and voltage to preset values after the paralleling breaker closes.
The control continually monitors the battery charging system for low and high DC
voltage and runs a battery load test every time the engine is started. Functions and messages include:
• Low DC voltage (battery voltage less than 25VDC except during engine cranking)
• High DC voltage (battery voltage greater than 32 VDC)
• Weak battery (battery voltage less than 14.4 VDC for more than 2 seconds during engine cranking).
The control batteries and charger unit are housed within the GCP.
Charger:
The 10 Amp charger is of the constant voltage, current limited type designed for the charging of vented or sealed
lead acid or NiCad batteries. It is capable of supplying a standing load whilst simultaneously maintaining the battery
to its fully charged state.
The battery chargers features include :
Batteries:
Two off sealed lead acid maintenance free batteries. These batteries use a thixotropic gel electrolyte which holds
the acid in contact with the flat plate electrodes, maximising the contact surface area therefore the available
capacity. They are supplied with safety vents which enable the battery to vent if misused and then re-seal
automatically.

AmpSentry Protection
AmpSentry protection is a comprehensive power monitoring and control system integral to the PCC that guards the electrical
integrity of the alternator and power system from the effects of overcurrent, short circuit, over/under voltage, underfrequency
and overload. Current is regulated to 300% for both single phase and 3 phase faults when a short circuit condition is sensed.
An overcurrent alarm will sound if the genset is operating for an extended period at a potentially damaging current level, to
warn the operator of an impending problem before it causes a system failure. If an overcurrent condition persists for the time
pre-programmed in the time current characteristic for the alternator, the PMG excitation system is de-energised to avoid
alternator damage.
The overcurrent protection is time delayed in accordance with the alternator thermal capacity allowing current to flow until
secondary fuses or circuit breakers operate, isolating the fault and thus achieving selective co-ordination (discrimination).
This enhances power service continuity by eliminating the need for a main line breaker mounted on the genset for genset
protection and the possibility of nuisance tripping of that breaker.

AmpSentry provides excellent, matched protection for the alternator without the danger of nuisance tripping. The exact time
current characteristics of AmpSentry are shown in the PowerCommand Control AmpSentry Time-Over-Current
Characteristic Curve, Form Number R-1053.
After the fault is cleared AmpSentry Protection softly loads the genset by a controlled ramping of output voltage to rated
level, allowing the genset to resume normal operation without potentially damaging voltage overshoot.
Fixed over/under voltage and under frequency time delayed set points also provide a degree of protection for lead
equipment. Over/under voltage conditions trigger a shutdown message on the digital display screen. Under frequency
condition prompts both a warning and shutdown message depending upon the length of time and magnitude of variance
under rated frequency.
AmpSentry Protection includes an overload signal that can be used in conjunction with proprietary transfer switches to
automatically shed load, preventing a potential genset shutdown. The overload signal is programmable for operation at a
specific kW level, on the basis of an under frequency condition, or both.
Overload
When total kW load exceeds 100% of the standby rating of the genset (110% of prime rating) for 5 seconds a load shed
signal is issued and a warning alarm activated.

Overcurrent (51)
When the current on any phase exceeds 110% of the genset rated current for more than 60 seconds a warning alarm is
activated.
Overcurrent (51)
The genset is shutdown when the current on any phase is between 110 - 175% of rated and the time/current integral
approaches alternator thermal limits.
The genset is shutdown when the current on any phase exceeds 175% of rated and the time/current integral approaches
alternator thermal limits.
Genset is shutdown when AC voltage exceeds 110% for 10 seconds or with no delay when voltage exceeds 130% of
nominal.
Genset is shutdown when AC voltage falls below 85% of rated voltage for more than 10 seconds.
UnderFrequency (81U)
Genset is shutdown when AC frequency fals below 90% of rated frequency for more than 20 seconds.
Genset is shut down when kW flow into the genset exceeds an adjustable set point (5 - 15% of genset rating) for an
adjustable amount of time (1 - 15 seconds).
Genset is shut down when kVAR is less than 0.16 - 0.41 per unit kVAR (adjustable) for more than 2 - 10 seconds
(adjustable).
Auxiliary control is provided for the following functions when they are included with the generator set:
• Engine heater control,
• Alternator heater control,
• Coolant circulation pump,
• Clean fuel pump,
• Oil priming pump,
• Alarm/data handling.
The PLC directly interfaces with the system touchscreen (HMI) as well as both the PCS and the engine protection module
(MCM700).
It interfaces with the PCS via a Cummins developed RS232 (MON) protocol and to the MCM700 module via MODBUS RTU
RS422 link. Communication to the HMI is provided by means of another MODBUS RTU, RS485 link.
The PLC uses a DIN rail mounted card and rack arrangement to allow easy servicing and identification of system
components.
Other features to enhance serviceability include:
• Capability for on-line program/data changes using a personal computer directly connected to the PLC,
• LED status indicators on each board for use in diagnosis of system condition and board level service,
• I/O cards include integral surge suppressors for greater system reliability,
