1 INTRODUCTION
GAC’s Enhance Electronic Governor EEG7000 digital speed controller is designed to regulate
engine speed on diesel and gaseous fueled engines. When paired with a GAC actuator the
EEG7000 is a suitable upgrade for any mechanical governor system that needs flexibility, pre-
cision, and accurate control of governed speed.
The EEG7000 is designed for industrial engine applications including generator sets, me-
chanical drives, pumps, compressors and off-road mobile equipment. The GAC EEG7000
Interface Tool adds the ability to set parameters values and troubleshoot from your PC. With
CAN J1939 capability it has the ability to accept TSC1 messages over USB as a mini engine
control module (ECM). It can be controlled directly over J1939 with aftermarket displays such
as ComAp, Dynagen, and Murphy – a solution for every application.

[mm] Avoid extreme heat. Do not mount next to turbo-
charger, exhaust manifold, or other high tempera-
ture equipment.
An overspeed shutdown device, independent of the governor system, should be used to prevent loss of
engine control which may cause personal injury or equipment damage.
Do not rely exclusively on the governor system electric actuator to prevent overspeed. A secondary shutoff
device, such as a fuel solenoid must be used.

5 EEG7000 WIRING OVERVIEW
14-pin AMPSEAL requires GAC mating connector kit EC1502 or cable harness CH1520.
Use a crimping tool to connect the connector and harness.
The auxiliary (AUX) terminal accepts input signals from load sharing units, auto synchronizers, and other governor system accessories.
The AUXILIARY input from Pin 4 is activated by selecting ON at the auxiliary input in the Interface Tool Main
menu.
The AUX function decreases engine speed with increasing input voltage, the polarity shift function increases engine speed with increas-
ing input voltage. Aux input is nominally 5.0 V +/- 5.0 V DC.

6 EEG7000 Basic Wiring (CONTINUED)
The EEG7000 has two inputs which, in various combinations, allow the user to use three fixed speed settings or the variable speed setting.
This is accomplished by tying inputs to ground or leaving them open. Fixed Speed 1 can be set to idle as required.
WIRING COMBINATIONS
PIN 5 PIN 6 Speed Mode
Open Open Variable Speed (or Fixed Speed)
Ground Ground Fixed Speed 1
Open Ground Fixed Speed 2
Ground Open Fixed Speed 3
Speed is set from the Interface Tool FIXED SPEEDS and VARIABLE
SPEED 4 blocks.
To set variable speed, select the analog mode for your variable
input signal, and input desired RPM.
See Section 11, Setting Variable Speed Parameters for more details
and details on using input range and INPUT CALIBRATION.
Pin 7 provides analog input from external trim or variable speed potentiometers. Use Pins 7 to create resistive input: Select 0 - 5 V /
Resistive and connect a 5 k Ω potentiometer between Pins 7, 9 and 12 (also see Pin 9 - Variable Speed).
When the EEG7000 detects engine speed has reached the user defined Limit / Threshold value, the EEG7000 controller changes the
state of Pin 8. The SSW can be used for overspeed protection, starter cutoff (crank termination), and other general auxiliary functions.
The SSW adjustment range is 100 to 6000 RPM. The default value is 1800 RPM and the default state (Mode) is NORMALLY
OPEN.
When NORMALLY OPEN is selected the SSW output on Pin 8 will energize at the set speed. When NORMALLY CLOSED is
selected output from Pin 8 will de-energize at the speed setting.
When the LATCHING box is checked the SSW output state is fixed until power to the unit is cycled. When the box is not checked
the output state automatically resets at 0 RPM. The default is checked (ON).

6 EEG7000 Basic Wiring (CONTINUED)
Variable speed is enabled when Pins 5 and 6 are not grounded. Connect a 5 kΩ
potentiometer,0 - 5 V DC or 4 - 20 mA speed input signal, to Pin 9. The default
setting is 0 - 5 V DC with variable speed available.
Variable Speed can be used as another fixed speed setting if both Min. Speed and
Max. Speed values are set to the same RPM and no potentiometer is connected.
For more details on setting variable speed see Section 11, Main Menu
Parameters.
Setting the Min Speed and Max Speed to the same value with no
NOTE input on Pin 9 enables you to use Variable Speed as an additional
fixed speed setting.

8 PRE-START
The following parameter values must be set before starting the engine. Values in black text are saved automatically as they are
changed. Blue text displays current read-only values and cannot be changed.
MAIN MENU
STARTING PARAMETERS
1. Enter values for all the STARTING PARAMETERS:
• Crank Termination
• Actuator Ramp Rate
• Actuator Begin Point
NOTE More details on these parameters are available in Section 11, Main Menu Parameters
Do not rely exclusively on the governor system electronic actuator to prevent overspeed. A secondary shutoff
device, such as a fuel solenoid must be used. STOP ENGINE shuts down the actuator, not the engine.
Crank the engine with DC power applied to the governor system. The initial amount of power to the actuator is determined by the AC-
TUATOR BEGIN POINT parameter (default is 100% open). ACTUATOR RAMP RATE will control the rate at which fuel is increased
to start the engine (default is 10%).

10 ADJUSTING FOR STABILITY
nce the engine is running at operating speed and at no load, the following governor performance adjustment can be made to increase
O
engine stability.
Parameter Adjustment Procedure
1. Increase the value until instability develops.
2. Gradually decrease the value until stability returns.
P
3. Decrease th value one increment further to ensure stable performance.
(GAIN)
If instability persists, decrease the stability value.
Follow the same adjustment procedure as the Gain parameter.
I
(STABILITY)
If instability persists, adjust the deadtime parameter.
D
Select either HI of LO (Default is HI)
(DEAD TIME)
P, I, & D parameter adjustments may require minor changes after engine load is applied. Normally, adjustments made
NOTE at no load achieve satisfactory performance. If further performance improvements are required, see Section 14, SYS-
TEM TROUBLESHOOTING.

An additional fixed speed setting can be created using the variable speed setting, when Min Speed and Max Speed are set to the
same value.
DROOP PARAMETERS
Droop minutely decreases frequency as load is increased, balancing power fluctuations. Interface Tool droop settings require both
load and no load values as well as the percentage of droop you want used.

11 MAIN MENU PARAMETERS (CONTINUED)
The NLCU entered must be less than the FLCU and the difference between the two must be at least 0.5 A. If an invalid combination
is entered a warning will be flagged and the values default to 0.5 A and 6.0 A.
• Both Min Speed and Max Speed settings have a range of 150 to 6000 RPM, the default value is 1500 RPM for both.
• When Min Speed and Max Speed parameters are set to the same value, with no input on Pin 9, Variable Speed 4 is used as an
additional fixed speed setting.
• If Min Speed setting is higher than the Max Speed, increasing the speed input signal / potentiometer position will decrease RPM.
Perform the following procedure with the speed controller powered on but the engine not running to set the variable
speed limits.
1. Variable Speed, Mode 4, is selected when pins 5 and 6 are open, as described
in Section 4 , Wiring. It is the default Mode when your unit is first powered on.
2. Select the correct variable speed input signal, either 0 - 5V / Resistive or 4 -
20 mA.
3. From Variable Speed 4 click Input Calibration. The setting sequence
will step through each parameter, click Continue after each step.
4. Set Droop with the range: 0.0 to 25%
5. Set Min Speed value with input signal at either 0 volts, 4 mA or with the poten-
tiometer in the full counterclockwise position.
• Min Speed Gain
• Min RPM
• Min Position %
6. Set Max Speed value with input signal at either 5 volts, 20 mA or with the
potentiometer in the full clockwise position.
• Max Speed Gain
• Max RPM
• Max Position
7. A new window displays, confirming the calibration is complete.

14 EEG7000 SYSTEM TROUBLESHOOTING (continued)
INSTABILITY
INSTABILITY SYMPTOM ACTION
1. Adjust P, I, and D
2. Check fuel system linkage during engine operation for:
An irregularity of speed below 3 Hz. • binding
Slow Periodic
(Sometimes severe) • high friction
• poor linkage
3. Add a small amount of droop.
Increasing Stability reduces instability but does not totally correct it.
If this is the case, there is most likely a problem with the engine itself.
Check for:
Non-Periodic Erratic Engine Behavior • engine mis-firings
• erratic fuel system
• load changes on the generator set voltage regulator
