7.6 Controller Application Program

This document provides instructions for testing the silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) module in a generator controller. The SCR module works with the controller to regulate generator output voltage. The test procedure involves using an ohmmeter and 12V DC power source to check resistance readings at various points on the SCR module. Any failures detected in the test indicate the SCR module needs replacement.
