Introduction
2 INTRODUCTION
This document does not contain operating instructions for the DSE7500 series synchronising and load sharing
controllers. This is contained within DSE publications - part numbers 057-088 (DSE7510), 057-089 (DSE7520) and
057-090 (DSE7560).
This document details the installation and operation requirements of the DSE7200 and DSE7300 Series modules,
part of the DSEGenset® range of products.
The manual forms part of the product and should be kept for the entire life of the product. If the product is passed or
supplied to another party, ensure that this document is passed to them for reference purposes.
This is not a controlled document. You will not be automatically informed of updates. Any future updates of this
document will be included on the DSE website at www.deepseaplc.com
The DSE7000 series is designed to provide differing levels of functionality across a common platform. This allows
the generator OEM greater flexibility in the choice of controller to use for a specific application.
The DSE7000 series module has been designed to allow the operator to start and stop the generator, and if
required, transfer the load to the generator either manually (via fascia mounted push-buttons) or automatically.
Additionally, the DSE7320 automatically starts and stops the generator set depending upon the status of the mains
(utility) supply.
The user also has the facility to view the system operating parameters via the LCD display.
The DSE7000 module monitors the engine, indicating the operational status and fault conditions, automatically
shutting down the engine and giving a true first up fault condition of an engine failure by a COMMON AUDIBLE
ALARM. The LCD display indicates the fault.
The powerful ARM microprocessor contained within the module allows for incorporation of a range of complex
features:
• Text based LCD display (supporting multiple languages).

• True RMS Voltage, Current and Power monitoring.
• Engine parameter monitoring.
• Fully configurable inputs for use as alarms or a range of different functions.
• Engine ECU interface to electronic engines.
Using a PC and the Configuration Suite software allows alteration of selected operational sequences, timers and
alarms.
Additionally, the module’s integral fascia configuration editor allows adjustment of a subset of this information.
A robust plastic case designed for front panel mounting houses the module. Connections are via locking plug and
sockets.

3.10 COMMUNICATION PORT USAGE
3.10.1 CAN INTERFACE
Modules are fitted with the CAN interface as standard and are capable of receiving
engine data from engine CAN controllers compliant with the CAN standard.
CAN enabled engine controllers monitor the engine’s operating parameters such as
engine speed, oil pressure, engine temperature (among others) in order to closely
monitor and control the engine. The industry standard communications interface (CAN)
transports data gathered by the engine controller interface. This allows generator controllers such as the DSE7000
series to access these engine parameters with no physical connection to the sensor device.
NOTE: For further details for connections to CAN enabled engines and the functions available with
each engine type, refer to the manual Electronic Engines and DSE Wiring. Part No. 057-004
17
Specifications
3.10.2 USB CONNECTION
The USB port is provided to give a simple means of connection between a PC and the DSE7000 series controller.
Using the DSE Configuration Suite Software, the operator is then able to control the module, starting or stopping the
generator, selecting operating modes, etc.
Additionally, the various operating parameters (such as output volts, oil pressure, etc.) of the remote generator are
available to be viewed or changed.
To connect a DSE7000 series module to a PC by USB, the following items are required:
• DSE7200 or DSE73000 series module
• DSE 7000 series configuration software

(Supplied on configuration suite software CD or available from
www.deepseaplc.com).
• USB cable Type A to Type B.

(This is the same cable as often used between a PC and a USB printer)
DSE can supply this cable if required :

PC Configuration interface lead (USB type A – type B) DSE Part No 016-125
NOTE: The DC supply must be connected to the module for configuration by PC.
NOTE: Refer to DSE7000 series Configuration Suite Manual for further details on configuring,
monitoring and control.

Specifications
3.10.3 RS232
The RS232 port on the controller supports the Modbus RTU protocol.
The Gencomm register table for the controller is available upon request from the DSE Technical Support
Department.
RS232 is for short distance communication (max 15m) and is typically used to connect the controller to a telephone
or GSM modem for more remote communications.
Many PCs are not fitted with an internal RS232 serial port. DSE DOES NOT recommend the use of USB to RS232
convertors but can recommend PC add-ons to provide the computer with an RS232 port.

• Wavecom Fastrak Xtrend GSM modem kit (PSU, Antenna and modem)*
DSE Part number 0830-001-01
NOTE: *For GSM modems a SIM card is required, supplied by your GSM network provider :
• For SMS only, a ‘normal’ voice SIM card is required. This enables the controller to send SMS messages to
designated mobile phones upon status and alarm conditions.
• For a data connection to a PC running DSE Configuration Suite Software, a ‘special’ CSD (Circuit Switched
Data) SIM card is required that will enable the modem to answer an incoming data call. Many ‘pay as you
go’ services will not provide a CSD (Circuit Switched Data) SIM card.

Specifications
3.10.4 RS485
The RS485 port on the series controller supports the Modbus RTU protocol.
The DSE Gencomm register table for the controller is available upon request from the DSE Technical Support
Department.
RS485 is used for point-to-point cable connection of more than one device (maximum 32 devices) and allows for
connection to PCs, PLCs and Building Management Systems (to name just a few devices).
One advantage of the RS485 interface is the large distance specification (1.2km when using Belden 9841 (or
equivalent) cable. This allows for a large distance between the module and a PC running the DSE Configuration
Suite software. The operator is then able to control the module, starting or stopping the generator, selecting
operating modes, etc.
The various operating parameters (such as output volts, oil pressure, etc.) of the remote generator can be viewed
or changed.
NOTE: For a single module to PC connection and distances up to 6m (8yds) the USB connection
method is more suitable and provides for a lower cost alternative to RS485 (which is more suited to longer
distance connections).

Cable type Two core screened twisted pair

Cable characteristic impedance 120Ω
Recommended cable Belden 9841
Belden 9271
Maximum cable length 1200m (¾ mile) when using Belden 9841 or direct equivalent.
600m (666 yds) when using Belden 9271 or direct equivalent.
DSENet® topology “Daisy Chain” Bus with no stubs (spurs)
DSENet® termination 120Ω. Fitted internally to host controller. Must be fitted externally to the ‘last’
expansion module by the customer.
Maximum expansion modules Refer to host controller documentation.
NOTE : As a termination resistor is internally fitted to the host controller, the host controller must be
the ‘first’ unit on the DSENet®. A termination resistor MUST be fitted to the ‘last’ unit on the DSENet®. For
connection details, you are referred to the section entitled ‘typical wiring diagram’ elsewhere in this
document.
3.11.1 DSENET® USED FOR MODBUS ENGINE CONNECTION
As DSENet® utilises an RS485 hardware interface, this port can be configured for connection to Cummins Modbus
engines (Engines fitted with Cummins GCM (Generator Control Module)).
This leaves the RS485 interface free for connection to remote monitoring equipment (i.e. Building Management
System, PLC or PC RS485 port).
While this is a very useful feature in some applications, the obvious drawback is that the DSENet® interface is no
longer available for connection to expansion devices.

3.12 SOUNDER
DSE7000 Series features an internal sounder to draw attention to warning, shutdown and electrical trip alarms.
Sounder level 64db @ 1m
3.12.1 ADDING AN EXTERNAL SOUNDER TO THE APPLICATION
Should an external alarm or indicator be required, this can be achieved by using the DSE Configuration Suite PC
software to configure an auxiliary output for “Audible Alarm”, and by configuring an auxiliary input for “Alarm Mute”
(if required).
The audible alarm output activates and de-activates at the same time as the module’s internal sounder. The Alarm
mute input and internal alarm mute button activate ‘in parallel’ with each other. Either signal will mute both the
internal sounder and audible alarm output.
Example of configuration to achieve external sounder with external alarm mute button:

in the preceding section all show the CT measuring the generator load. For clarity, an example is shown
below.
2) Load : The CTs are used to measure and display generator current when the generator is on load and
mains current when the mains is on load. The module display automatically changes to display the current
in the relevant instrumentation page. This example shows the CTs in the ‘load’ for a three phase delta
system but the same philosophy is applicable to the other topologies.

5.4.5 SERIAL PORT

This section is included to give information about the currently selected serial port and external modem (if
connected).
The items displayed on this page will change depending upon configuration of the module. You are referred to your
system supplier for further details.
NOTE: Factory Default settings are for the RS232 port to be enabled (no modem connected), operating
at 19200 baud, modbus slave address 10.
Example 1 – Module connected to a RS232 telephone modem.
When the DSE7300 series module is power up, it will send ‘initialisation strings’ to the connected modem. It is
important therefore that the modem is already powered, or is powered up at the same time as the DSE7300 series
module. At regular intervals after powerup, the modem is reset, and reinitialised, to ensure the modem does not
‘hang up’.
If the DSE7300 series module does not correctly communicate with the modem, “Modem initialising’ will appear on
the Serial Port instrument screen as shown overleaf.
If the module is set for “incoming calls” or for “incoming and outgoing calls”, then if the modem is dialled, it will
answer after two rings (using the factory setting ‘initialisation strings’. Once the call is established, all data is passed
from the dialling PC and the DSE7300 series module.
If the module is set for “outgoing calls” or for “incoming and outgoing calls”, then the module will dial out whenever
an alarm is generated. Note that not all alarms will generate a dial out, this is dependant upon module configuration
of the event log. Any item configured to appear in the event log will cause a dialout.
Press down to view the modem status....
Indicates that a modem is configured. Shows ‘RS232’ if no

modem is configured or ‘RS485’ if the RS485 port is selected.
67
Example 1 continued – Modem diagnostics
NOTE: Modem diagnostic screens are available on 7300 module versions 5 and above only. The
modem screens appear only when the module has been configured for use with a modem.
Modem diagnostic screens are included; press when viewing the Serial Port instrument to cycle the available
screens. If you are experiencing modem communication problems, this information will aid troubleshooting.
Shows the state of the modem communication lines. These can

Serial Port help diagnose connection problems.

68
Modem Setup Sequence
1)
If the Modem and DSE7000 series communicate successfully:
2)
In case of communication failure between the modem and DSE7000 series module, the modem is automatically
reset and initialisation is attempted once more:
3)
In the case of a module that is unable to communicate with the modem, the display will continuously cycle
between ‘Modem Reset’ and ‘Modem Initialising’ as the module resets the modem and attempts to
communicate with it again, this will continue until correct communication is established with the modem.
In this instance, you should check connections and verify the modem operation.
Example 2 – Module connected to a modem.
Example 3 – Modem status of a GSM modem
Currently connected GSM

operator and signal strength.
Many GSM modems are fitted with a status LED to show operator cell status and ringing indicator. These can be a
useful troubleshooting tool.
In the case of GSM connection problems, try calling the DATA number of the SIMCARD with an ordinary telephone.
There should be two rings, followed by the modem answering the call and then ‘squealing’. If this does not happen,
you should check all modem connections and double check with the SIM provider that it is a DATA SIM and can
operate as a data modem. DATA is NOT the same as FAX or GPRS and is often called Circuit Switched Data
(CSD) by the SIM provider.
NOTE: In the case of GSM modems, it is important that a DATA ENABLED SIM is used. This is often a
different number than the ‘voice number’ and is often called Circuit Switched Data (CSD) by the SIM
provider.
If the GSM modem is not purchased from DSE, ensure that it has been correctly set to operate at 9600 baud. You
may need to install a terminal program on your PC and consult your modem supplier to do this. GSM modems
purchased from DSE are already configured to work with the DSE7300 series module.
69
Example 4 - Module RS485 port configured for connection to a

modbus master.
DSE7300 series modules operate as a modbus RTU slave device.

In a modbus system there can be only one Master, typically a PLC, HMI system or PC SCADA system.
This master requests for information from the modbus slave (DSE7300 series module) and may (in control
systems) also send request to change operating modes etc. Unless the Master makes a request, the slave is ‘quiet’
on the datalink.
The factory settings are for the module to communicate at 19200 baud, modbus slave address 10.
To use the RS485 port, ensure that ‘port usage’ is correctly set using the DSE Configuration Suite Software.
Required settings are shown below.
‘Master inactivity timeout’ should be set to at least twice the value of the system scan time. For example if a modbus
master PLC requests data from the DSE7300 modbus slave once per second, the timeout should be set to at least
2 seconds.
The DSE Modbus Gencomm document containing register mappings inside the DSE module is available upon
request from [email protected]. Email your request along with the serial number of your DSE module to
ensure the correct information is sent to you.
Typical requests (using Pseudo code)
BatteryVoltage=ReadRegister(10,0405,1) : reads register (hex) 0405 as a single register (battery volts) from slave
address 10.
WriteRegister(10,1008,2,35701, 65535-35701) : Puts the module into AUTO mode by writing to (hex) register 1008, the
values 35701 (auto mode) and register 1009 the value 65535-35701 (the bitwise opposite of auto mode)
Shutdown=(ReadRegister(10,0306,1) >> 12) & 1) : reads (hex) 0306 and looks at bit 13 (shutdown alarm present)
Warning=(ReadRegister(10,0306,1) >> 11) & 1) : reads (hex) 0306 and looks at bit 12 (Warning alarm present)
ElectricalTrip=(ReadRegister(10,0306,1) >> 10) & 1) : reads (hex) 0306 and looks at bit 11 (Electrical Trip alarm

5.5 VIEWING THE EVENT LOG

The DSE7000 series modules maintain a log of past alarms and/or selected status changes.
The log size has been increased in the module over past module updates and is always subject to change. At
the time of writing, the 7300 series log is capable of storing the last 250 log entries.
Under default factory settings, the event log only includes shutdown and electrical trip alarms logged (The event
log does not contain Warning alarms), however this is configurable by the system designer using the DSE
Configuration Suite software.
Example showing the

possible configuration of the
DSE7000 series event log
(DSE Configuration Suite
Software)
This also shows the factory
settings of the module (Only
shutdown alarms and the
mains status are logged).
Once the log is full, any subsequent shutdown alarms will overwrite the oldest entry in the log.
Hence, the log will always contain the most recent shutdown alarms.
The module logs the alarm, along with the date and time of the event (or engine running hours if configured to do
so).
If the module is configured and connected to send SMS text
To view the event log, repeatedly press the next page button until the LCD screen displays the Event log :

5.7 CONTROLS
Stop / Reset
This button places the module into its Stop/Reset mode. This will clear any alarm conditions for
which the triggering criteria have been removed. If the engine is running and the module is in Stop
mode, the module will automatically instruct the changeover device to unload the generator (‘Close
Generator’ becomes inactive (if used)). The fuel supply de-energises and the engine comes to a
standstill. Should a remote start signal be present while operating in this mode, a remote start will
not occur.
Manual
This mode allows manual control of the generator functions. Once in Manual mode the module will
respond to the start button, start the engine, and run off load. If the engine is running off-load in
the Manual mode and a remote start signal becomes present, the module will automatically instruct
the changeover device to place the generator on load (‘Close Generator’ becomes active (if used)).
Upon removal of the remote start signal, the generator remains on load until either selection of the
‘STOP/RESET’ or ‘AUTO’ modes.
For further details, please see the more detailed description of ‘Manual operation’ elsewhere in this
manual.
Auto
This button places the module into its ‘Automatic’ mode. This mode allows the module to control the
function of the generator automatically. The module will monitor the remote start input and mains
supply status and once a start request is made, the set will be automatically started and placed on
load.
Upon removal of the starting signal, the module will automatically transfer the load from the generator
and shut the set down observing the stop delay timer and cooling timer as necessary. The module will
then await the next start event. For further details, please see the more detailed description of ‘Auto
operation’ elsewhere in this manual.
5.7.1.1 TEST (DSE7220/DSE7320 ONLY)

Operation
6 OPERATION (STANDALONE)
The following description details the sequences followed by a module containing the standard ‘factory configuration’.
Remember that if you have purchased a completed generator set or control panel from your supplier, the module’s
configuration will probably have been changed by them to suit their particular requirements.
Always refer to your configuration source for the exact sequences and timers observed by any particular module in
the field.
6.1 ALTERNATIVE CONFIGURATIONS

Depending upon the configuration of your system by the generator supplier, the system may have selectable
configurations (for example to select between 50Hz and 60Hz running). If this has been enabled your generator
supplier will advise how this selection can be made (usually by externally operated selector switch or by selecting
the required configuration file in the DSE7000 series front panel configuration editor).
77
Operation
6.2 DUMMY LOAD / LOAD SHEDDING CONTROL
NOTE: Dummy Load / Load Shedding Control is only available on DSE7300 series controllers V4 or
above and DSE7200 Series V11.0.6
This feature may be enabled by the system designer to ensure the loading on the generator is kept to a nominal
amount. If the load is low, ‘dummy loads’ (typically static load banks) can be introduced to ensure the engine is not
too lightly loaded. Conversely as the load increases towards the maximum rating of the set, non-essential loads can
be shed to prevent overload of the generator.
6.2.1 DUMMY LOAD CONTROL
The dummy load control feature (if enabled) allows for a maximum of five dummy load steps.
When the set is first started, all configured Dummy Load Control outputs are de-energised.
Once the generator is placed onto load, the generator loading is monitored by the Dummy Load Control scheme.
If the generator loading falls below the Dummy Load Control Trip setting (kW), the Dummy Load Control Trip Delay
is displayed on the module display. If the generator loading remains at this low level for the duration of the timer, the
first Dummy Load Control output is energised. This is used to energise external circuits to switch in (for instance) a
static load bank.
The generator loading has now been increased by the first dummy load. Again the generator loading is monitored.
This continues until all configured Dummy Load Control outputs are energised.
Should the generator loading rise above the Dummy Load Return level, the Dummy Load Return Delay begins.
If the loading remains at these levels after the completion of the timer, the ‘highest’ active Dummy Load Control
output is de-energised. This continues until all Dummy Load Control outputs have been de-energised.
Example screen shot of Dummy Load Control setup in the DSE Configuration Suite
78
Operation
6.2.2 LOAD SHEDDING CONTROL
The Load Shedding Control feature (if enabled) allows for a maximum of five load shedding steps.
When the generator is about to take load, the configured number of Load Shedding Control Outputs at Startup will
energise. This configurable setting allows (for instance) certain loads to be removed from the generator prior to the
set’s load switch being closed. This can be used to ensure the initial loading of the set is kept to a minimum, below
the Load Acceptance specification of the generating set.
The generator is then placed on load. The Load Shedding Control scheme begins.
When the load reaches the Load Shedding Trip level the Trip Delay timer will start. If the generator loading is still
high when the timer expires, the first Load shedding Control output will energise. When the load has been above the
trip level for the duration of the timer the ‘next’ Load shedding Control output will energise and so on until all Load
Shedding Control outputs are energised.
If at any time the load falls back below the Load Shedding Return level, the Return Time will start. If the load
remains below the return level when the timer has expired the ‘highest’ Load Shedding Control output that has been
energised will be de-energised. This process will continue until all outputs have been de-energised.
When the set enters a stopping sequence for any reason the Load Shedding control’ outputs will de-energise at the
same time as the generator load switch is signalled to open.

Operation
6.3 SMS CONTROL
NOTE: Only available in version DSE7300 version 8+ modules with a suitable GSM modem connected
to the RS232 port and configured to receive the control commands.
The SMS Control feature (if enabled) allows the user to send control commands to a DSE7200 via SMS message.
There are five control commands that the user can send to the module, these control commands are in the table
below.
NOTE: Multiple SMS Control Commands CANNOT be sent in a single SMS message.
Control Command Module Action

1 Start the generator off load if in the ‘Auto’ position.
2 Start the generator on load if in the ‘Auto’ position..
3 Cancel an SMS start request.
4 Put the module into the ‘STOP’ position.
5 Put the module into the ‘AUTO’ position.
To send an SMS command, the user will need (if configured) the SMS Control Pin Number and the Control
Command Number. Only these numbers must be included in the SMS, the module will not respond to any SMS with
extra characters or missing PIN number (if configured). Below is an example how to start and run the generator on
load by SMS message.
NOTE: There must be a space between the SMS PIN Number and the Control Command Number

Operation
6.4 STOP MODE

STOP mode is activated by pressing the button.
In STOP mode, the module will remove the generator from load (if necessary) before stopping the engine if it is
already running.
If the engine does not stop when requested, the FAIL TO STOP alarm is activated (subject to the setting of the Fail
to Stop timer). To detect the engine at rest the following must occur :
• Engine speed is zero as detected by the Magnetic Pickup or CANbus ECU (depending upon module
variant).
• Generator frequency must be zero.
• Oil pressure switch must be closed to indicate low oil pressure (MPU version only)
When the engine has stopped, it is possible to send configuration files to the module from DSE Configuration Suite
PC software and to enter the Front Panel Editor to change parameters.
Any latched alarms that have been cleared will be reset when STOP mode is entered.
The engine will not be started when in STOP mode. If remote start signals are given, the input is ignored until AUTO
mode is entered.
When configured to do so, if the generator has been on load, pressing the stop button will open the generator
breaker and force it to do a cooling run. If the stop button is activated again during the cooling run, the generator will
stop instantly.
When configured to do so, When left in STOP mode for five minutes with no presses of the fascia buttons, the
module enters low power mode. To ‘wake’ the module, press the button or any other fascia control button.

Operation
6.4.1 ECU OVERRIDE
NOTE: ECU Override function is only applicable when the controller is configured for a CAN engine.
NOTE: Depending upon system design, the ECU may be powered or unpowered when the module is in
STOP mode. ECU override is only applicable if the ECU is unpowered when in STOP mode.
When the ECU powered down (as is normal when in STOP mode), it is not possible to read the diagnostic trouble
codes or instrumentation. Additionally, it is not possible to use the engine manufacturers’ configuration tools.
As the ECU is usually unpowered when the engine is not running, it must be turned on manually as follows :
• Select STOP mode on the DSE controller.

• Press and hold the START button to power the ECU. As the controller is in STOP mode, the engine will
not be started.
.
• The ECU will remain powered 2 minutes after the START button is released.
This is also useful if the engine manufacturer’s tools need to be connected to the engine, for instance to configure
the engine as the ECU needs to be powered up to perform this operation.
82
Operation
6.5 AUTOMATIC MODE
NOTE: If a digital input configured to panel lock is active, changing module modes will not be
possible. Viewing the instruments and event logs is NOT affected by panel lock.
Activate auto mode be pressing the pushbutton. An LED indicator beside the button confirms this action.
Auto mode will allow the generator to operate fully automatically, starting and stopping as required with no user
intervention.
6.5.1 WAITING IN AUTO MODE
If a starting request is made, the starting sequence will begin.

Starting requests can be from the following sources:
• Mains supply out of limits (DSE7220/7320 only)

• Activation of an auxiliary input that has been configured to remote start on load or remote start off load.
• Activation of the inbuilt exercise scheduler.
• Instruction from external remote telemetry devices using the RS232 or RS485 interface
(DSE7310/DSE7320 only).
6.5.2 STARTING SEQUENCE
To allow for ‘false’ start requests such as mains brownouts, the start delay timer begins. There are individual start
delay timers for each of the different start request types.
Should all start requests be removed during the start delay timer, the unit will return to a stand-by state.
If a start request is still present at the end of the start delay timer, the fuel relay is energised and the engine will be
cranked.
NOTE: If the unit has been configured for CAN, compatible ECU’s will receive the start command via
CAN.
If the engine fails to fire during this cranking attempt then the starter motor is disengaged for the crank rest duration
after which the next start attempt begins. Should this sequence continue beyond the set number of attempts, the
start sequence will be terminated and the display shows Fail to Start.
The starter motor is disengaged when the engine fires. Speed detection is factory configured to be derived from the
main alternator output frequency, but can additionally be measured from a Magnetic Pickup mounted on the
flywheel (Selected by PC using the 7000 series configuration software).
Additionally, rising oil pressure can be used to disconnect the starter motor (but cannot detect underspeed or
overspeed).
NOTE: If the unit has been configured for CAN, speed sensing is via CAN.
After the starter motor has disengaged, the Safety On timer activates, allowing Oil Pressure, High Engine
Temperature, Under-speed, Charge Fail and any delayed Auxiliary fault inputs to stabilise without triggering the
fault.
83
Operation
6.5.3 ENGINE RUNNING
Once the engine is running, the Warm Up timer, if selected, begins, allowing the engine to stabilise before accepting
the load.
DSE7210/DSE7310 - The generator will be placed on load.

DSE7220/DSE7320 - Load will be transferred from the mains supply to the generator
NOTE: The load transfer signal remains inactive until the Oil Pressure has risen. This prevents
excessive wear on the engine.
As the load increases and decreases, the DSE7300 series module (available on DSE7200 series v12+) may
(depending upon configuration) add dummy loads or remove non-essential loads. This is configured as part of the
Load Shedding and Dummy Load control settings in the DSE Configuration Suite Software.
See section entitled Dummy Load / Load Shedding elsewhere in this document for further details.
If all start requests are removed, the stopping sequence will begin.
6.5.4 STOPPING SEQUENCE
The return delay timer operates to ensure that the starting request has been permanently removed and isn’t just a
short term removal. Should another start request be made during the cooling down period, the set will return on
load.
If there are no starting requests at the end of the return delay timer, the load is transferred back from the generator
to the mains supply and the cooling timer is initiated.
The cooling timer allows the set to run off load and cool sufficiently before being stopped. This is particularly
important where turbo chargers are fitted to the engine.
After the cooling timer has expired, the set is stopped.

Operation (Dual Mutual Standby)
7 OPERATION (DUAL MUTUAL STANDBY)
NOTE: Dual Mutual Standby is only available in DSE7210 and DSE7310 series V2.0 or above.
Load Balancing is only available in DSE7000 series V4 or above.
The following description details the sequences followed by a module containing the standard ‘factory configuration’
modified to allow two controllers to operate in Dual Mutual Standby.
The operating modes are as per Standalone operation with the dual mutual functions detailed below.
Remember that if you have purchased a completed generator set or control panel from your supplier, the module’s
configuration will probably have been changed by them to suit their particular requirements.
Always refer to your configuration source for the exact sequences and timers observed by any particular module in
the field.
Screen shot from DSE Configuration Suite PC Software showing the configuration of the Master and Slave controllers.
Dual Mutual Standby will allow the generators to operate fully automatically, starting and stopping as required with
no user intervention, with the master backed up by the slave. It is also possible to configure the master to change
duty based upon a scheduler, to allow for ‘load balancing’ (V4 or above only)
If a starting request is made, the starting sequence will begin.

Starting requests can be from the following sources:
• Activation of an auxiliary input that has been configured to remote start

o It is usual that one remote start signal controls both modules In this instance, the Master will start
its generator. Should the Master fail, it instructs the Slave to start and take the load.
o If the Master running and the remote start signal is given to the Slave, the Slave will not start its
generator until the Master generator fails.
• Activation of the inbuilt exercise scheduler.
o In dual mutual standby operation the scheduler operates totally independently to the Master/Slave
scheme. Both generators could start, but only one will be allowed to close its load switch to power
the load.
NOTE: In all operating modes, only one module will be permitted to close its load switching device.

Protections
8.1 PROTECTIONS DISABLED
NOTE: This feature is available in module versions 4 and above.
User configuration is possible to prevent Shutdown / Electrical Trip alarms from stopping the engine.
Under such conditions, Protections Disabled will appear on the module display to inform the operator of this status.
This feature is provided to assist the system designer in meeting specifications for “Warning only”, “Protections
Disabled”, “Run to Destruction”, “War mode” or other similar wording.
When configuring this feature in the PC software, the system designer chooses to make the feature either
permanently active, or only active upon operation of an external switch. The system designer provides this switch
(not DSE) so its location will vary depending upon manufacturer, however it normally takes the form of a key
operated switch to prevent inadvertent activation. Depending upon configuration, a warning alarm may be generated
when the switch is operated.
The feature is configurable in the PC configuration software for the module. Writing a configuration to the controller
that has “Protections Disabled” configured, results in a warning message appearing on the PC screen for the user
to acknowledge before the controller’s configuration is changed. This prevents inadvertent activation of the feature.
8.1.1 INDICATION / WARNING ALARMS
Under Indication or Warning alarms :
• The module operation is unaffected by the Protections Disabled feature. See sections entitled Indications
and Warnings elsewhere in this document.
8.1.2 SHUTDOWN / ELECTRICAL TRIP ALARMS
NOTE: The EMERGENCY STOP input and shutdown alarm continues to operate even when Protections
Disabled has been activated.
Under Shutdown or Electrical Trip alarm conditions (excluding Emergency Stop) :
• The alarm is displayed on the screen as detailed in the section entitled Shutdown alarms elsewhere in this

8.6 ELECTRICAL TRIPS
NOTE: Shutdown and Electrical Trip alarms can be disabled by user configuration. See the section
entitled Protections Disabled elsewhere in this document.
Electrical trips are latching and stop the Generator but in a controlled manner. On initiation of the electrical trip
condition the module will de-energise the ‘Close Generator’ Output to remove the load from the generator. Once
this has occurred the module will start the Cooling timer and allow the engine to cool off-load before shutting down
the engine. The alarm must be accepted and cleared, and the fault removed to reset the module.

8.7 HIGH CURRENT SHUTDOWN / ELECTRICAL TRIP ALARM

The overcurrent alarm combines a simple warning trip level with a fully functioning IDMT curve for thermal
protection.
8.7.1 IMMEDIATE WARNING
If the Immediate Warning is enabled, the controller generates a warning alarm as soon as the Trip level is reached.
The alarm automatically resets once the generator loading current falls below the Trip level (unless All Warnings are
latched is enabled). For further advice, consult your generator supplier.
8.7.2 IDMT ALARM
If the IDMT Alarm is enabled, the controller begins following the IDMT ‘curve’ when the trip level is passed.
If the Trip is surpassed for an excess amount of time the IDMT Alarm triggers (Shutdown or Electric trip as selected
in Action).
High current shutdown is a latching alarm and stops the Generator.

Remove the fault then press Stop/Reset to reset the module.
High current electrical trip is a latching alarm and removes the generator from the load, before stopping the
Generator after the off load cooling timer.
Remove the fault then press Stop/Reset to reset the module.
The higher the overload, the faster the trip. The speed of the trip is dependent upon the fixed formula:
T = t / ((IA / I T) – 1) 2
Where: T is the tripping time in seconds
IA is the actual current of the most highly loaded line (L1 or L2 or L3)
IT is the delayed over-current trip point
t is the time multiplier setting and also represents the tripping time in seconds at twice full load (when IA / IT = 2).
100
Protections
Factory settings for the IDMT Alarm when used on a brushless alternator are as follows (screen capture from the
DSE Configuration Suite PC software :
IT (Trip setting value)
t (time multiplier)
These settings provide for normal running of the generator up to 100% full load. If full load is surpassed, the
Immediate Warning alarm is triggered, the set continues to run.
The effect of an overload on the generator is that the alternator windings begin to overheat; the aim of the IDMT
alarm is to prevent the windings being overload (heated) too much. The amount of time that the set can be safely
overloaded is governed by how high the overload condition is.
With typical settings as above, the tripping curve is followed as shown below.
This allows for overload of the set to the limits of the Typical Brushless Alternator whereby 110% overload is
permitted for 1 hour.
If the set load reduces, the controller then follows a cooling curve. This means that a second overload condition
may trip much sooner than the first as the controller knows if the windings have not cooled sufficiently.
For further details on the Thermal damage curve of your alternator, you are referred to your alternator manufacturer
and generator supplier.

8.8 EARTH FAULT SHUTDOWN / ELECTRICAL TRIP ALARM

When the module is suitably connected using the ‘Earth Fault CT’. The module measures Earth Fault and can
optionally be configured to generate an alarm condition (shutdown or electrical trip) when a specified level is
surpassed.
If the Earth Fault alarm is enabled, the controller begins following the IDMT ‘curve’. If the Trip is surpassed for an
excess amount of time the Alarm triggers (Shutdown or Electric trip as selected in Action).
The higher the Earth Fault, the faster the trip. The speed of the trip is dependent upon the fixed formula :
T = K x 0.14 / ((I / Is) 0.02 -1)

Where: T is the tripping time in seconds (accurate to +/- 5% or +/- 50ms (whichever is the greater)
K is the time multiplier setting
I is the actual earth current measured

8.9 SHORT CIRCUIT ALARM

If the Short Circuit alarm is enabled, the controller begins following the IDMT ‘curve’. If the Trip is surpassed for an
excess amount of time the Alarm triggers (Shutdown or Electrical trip as selected in Action).
The higher the Short Circuit, the faster the trip. The speed of the trip is dependent upon the fixed formula :
T = K x 0.14 / ((I / Is) 0.02 -1)

Where: T is the tripping time in seconds (accurate to +/- 5% or +/- 50ms (whichever is the greater)
K is the time multiplier setting

Maintenance Alarm
9 MAINTENANCE ALARM
Depending upon module configuration one or more
levels of maintenance alarm may occur based upon a
configurable schedule.
There are three maintenance alarms in the
DSE7200/DSE7300 series V3 and above, and one
level of maintenance alarm in prior versions.
Example 1
Screen capture from DSE Configuration Suite

Software showing the configuration of Maintenance
Alarm 1 and Maintenance Alarm 2.
When activated, the maintenance alarm can be either

a warning (set continues to run) or shutdown
(running the set is not possible).
Resetting the maintenance alarm is normally actioned
by the site service engineer after performing the
required maintenance.
The method of reset is either by:
• Activating a input that has been configured to maintenance x reset, where x is the number of the
maintenance alarm (1 to 3).
• Pressing the maintenance reset button in the DSE Configuration Suite, Maintenance section.
• Pressing and holding the stop button when the module’s display is on the maintenance alarm section.

Scheduler
10 SCHEDULER
DSE7000 Series contains an inbuilt exercise run scheduler, capable of automatically starting and stopping the set.
Up to 16 scheduled start/stop sequences can be configured to repeat on a 7-day or 28-day cycle.
Scheduled runs may be on load or off load depending upon module configuration.
Example

Software showing the configuration of the Exercise
Scheduler.
In this example the set will start at 09:00 on Monday

and run for 5 hours, then start at 13:30 on Tuesday
and run for 30 minutes.
10.1.1 STOP MODE
• Scheduled runs will not occur when the module is in STOP/RESET mode.
10.1.2 MANUAL MODE
• Scheduled runs will not occur when the module is in MANUAL mode.
• Activation of a Scheduled Run ‘On Load’ when the module is operating OFF LOAD in Manual mode will
have no effect, the set continues to run OFF LOAD
10.1.3 AUTO MODE
• Scheduled runs will operate ONLY if the module is in AUTO mode with no Shutdown or Electrical Trip alarm
present.
• If the module is in STOP or MANUAL mode when a scheduled run begins, the engine will not be started.
However, if the module is moved into AUTO mode during a scheduled run, the engine will be called to start.
• Depending upon configuration by the system designer, an external input can be used to inhibit a scheduled
run.
• If the engine is running OFF LOAD in AUTO mode and a scheduled run configured to ‘On Load’ begins, the
set is placed ON LOAD for the duration of the Schedule.

12.1.1 PRE-COMMISSIONING
Before the system is started, it is recommended that the following checks are made:-
10.1. The unit is adequately cooled and all the wiring to the module is of a standard and rating compatible with the
system. Check all mechanical parts are fitted correctly and that all electrical connections (including earths)
are sound.
10.2. The unit DC supply is fused and connected to the battery and that it is of the correct polarity.
10.3. The Emergency Stop input is wired to an external normally closed switch connected to DC positive.
NOTE: If Emergency Stop feature is not required, link this input to the DC Positive. The module will not
operate unless either the Emergency Stop is fitted correctly OR terminal 3 is connected to DC positive.
10.4. To check the start cycle operation, take appropriate measures to prevent the engine from starting (disable the
operation of the fuel solenoid). After a visual inspection to ensure it is safe to proceed, connect the battery
supply. Select “MANUAL” and then press “START” the unit start sequence will commence.
10.5. The starter will engage and operate for the pre-set crank period. After the starter motor has attempted to start
the engine for the pre-set number of attempts, the LCD will display ‘Failed to start. Select the STOP/RESET
position to reset the unit.
10.6. Restore the engine to operational status (reconnect the fuel solenoid). Select “MANUAL” and then press
“START”. This time the engine should start and the starter motor should disengage automatically. If not then
check that the engine is fully operational (fuel available, etc.) and that the fuel solenoid is operating. The
engine should now run up to operating speed. If not, and an alarm is present, check the alarm condition for
validity, then check input wiring. The engine should continue to run for an indefinite period. It will be possible
at this time to view the engine and alternator parameters - refer to the ‘Description of Controls’ section of this
manual.
10.7. Select “AUTO” on the front panel, the engine will run for the pre-set cooling down period, then stop. The
generator should stay in the standby mode. If not check that there is not a signal present on the Remote
start input.
10.8. Initiate an automatic start by supplying the remote start signal (if configured). The start sequence will
commence and the engine will run up to operational speed. Once the generator is available a load transfer
will take place (if configured), the Generator will accept the load. If not, check the wiring to the Generator
Contactor Coil (if used). Check the Warming timer has timed out.
10.9. Remove the remote start signal. The return sequence will begin. After the pre-set time, the generator is
unloaded. The generator will then run for the pre-set cooling down period, then shutdown into its standby
mode.
10.10. Set the modules internal clock/calendar to ensure correct operation of the scheduler and event logging
functions. For details of this procedure see section entitled Front Panel Configuration – Editing the date and
time.
10.11. If, despite repeated checking of the connections between the 7000 series controller and the customer’s
system, satisfactory operation cannot be achieved, then the customer is requested to contact the factory for

Accuracy of the controller is better than 1% of full scale. Ie Gen volts full scale
is 333V ph-n so accuracy is ±3.33V (1% of 333V).
NOTE: The above fault finding is provided as a guide check-list only. As the module can be configured
to provide a wide range of different features, always refer to the source of your module configuration if in
