1.INFORMATION ABOUT AMF 25
DESCRIPTION :
 InteliLite AMF 25 meets all possible requirements for
AMF applications, including modem control, user
configuration and full gen-set monitoring and protection.

 InteliLite controller is equipped with a powerful graphic

display. Icons, symbols and bar graphs for intuitive
operation together with high functionality set new
standards in gen-set control.

 AMF 25 is also available, allowing the display to work in

tepmperature between -20°C and +70°C.

 4. OPERATION MODES
 On AUT mode, we can not attend generator and main circuit breaker
by manual.

 On MAN mode We can attend generator and main circuit breaker by

manual. Before switching the circuit breaker voltage and frequency
have to be suitable rating. AMF 25 has got elecrical lock to stop
switching both circuit breaker.

OPERATION MODES

Ersin ERDALI 21
 4. OPERATION MODES
 OFF MODE :

 No start of the gen-set is possible. Outputs STARTER, GCB

CLOSE/OPEN and FUEL SOLENOID are not energized.
 No reaction if buttons START,STOP,GCB ON/OFF, MCB ON/OFF are
pressed.
 When power-cut comes, MCB CLOSE/OPEN opens. After mains
returns, MCB CLOSE/OPEN closes with MCB close del.

Ersin ERDALI 22
 4. OPERATION MODES
 MAN MODE :
START : starts the gen-set.
GCB ON/OFF :
• The controller closes GCB to dead bus.
• The controller opens GCB when closed.
• If the generator voltage is out of the limits, the controller does not to
respond to the GCB ON/OFF
MCB ON/OFF :
• The controller closes MCB to dead bus.
• The controller opens MCB when closed.
STOP : stops the gen-set.

Ersin ERDALI 23
 4. OPERATION MODES
 AUTO MODE :

The controller does not respond to buttons START, STOP, MCB

ON/OFF, GCB ON/OFF. Engine start/stop request is evaluated form
Mains failure/return.

Ersin ERDALI 24
 4. OPERATION MODES
 TEST MODE :

The genset starts automatically and is always running in TEST mode.

The controller does not respond to GCB ON/OFF , STOP, START.

The load is automatically transferred back to the mains when any
genset shut down protection activates.

5. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
 Binary Inputs :
BI1 GCB feedback
BI2 MCB feedback
BI3 Emergency stop
BI4 Access lock
BI5 Remote OFF
BI6 Remote TEST
BI7 Sprinkler

GCB feedback ;
Use this input for indication, whether the generator circuit breaker is open or
closed. If the feedback is not used, connect this input to the output GCB
CLOSE/OPEN
MCB feedback ;
This input indicate, whether the gen-sets group operate in parallel to mains
(MCB FEEDBACK is closed) or parallel isolated (MCB FEEDBACK is open) .
Emergency stop ;
If the input is opened, shut down is immediately activated. Input is inverted
(normally closed).
Ersin ERDALI 29
5. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
 Binary Inputs :

Sprinkler ;
If the input is closed all alarms are disabled except the binary input
EMERGENCY STOP and "engine overspeed protection".
Access lock ;
If the input is closed, no setpoints can be adjusted from controller front panel
and gen-set mode (OFF-MAN-AUT-TEST) cannot be changed.
Remote OFF ;
If closed, iL is switched to OFF mode (there are four modes OFF-MAN-AUT-
TEST). When opens controller is switched back to previous mode.
Remote TEST ;
If closed, iL is switched to TEST mode (there are four modes OFF-MAN-
AUT-TEST). When opens controller is switched back to previous mode.
Remote MAN ;
If the input is active, MAN mode is forced to the controller independently on
the position of the MODE selector. If another of „remote“ inputs is active,
then the Remote MAN input has the lowest priority.

Ersin ERDALI 30
5. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
 Binary Inputs :

RemControlLock ;
If the input is active, setpoints writing or command sending from the external
terminal is disabled.
Emergency manual ;
If the input is activated the controller behaves like when switched to OFF
mode. Opens all binary outputs. There is one exception – Stop solenoid
doesn’t activate on this transition.
TestOnLoad ;
Affects the behaviour in TEST mode. When input is closed, the controller
automatically transfers load from the mains to the genset. Setpoint
AutoMainsFail: Ret from test must be set to MANUAL. Load is automatically
transferred back to the mains when any genset shut down protection
activates.
Start button ;
Binary input has the same function as Start button on the InteliLite front
panel. It is active in MAN mode only.

Ersin ERDALI 31
5. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
 Binary Inputs :

Stop button ;
Binary input has the same function as Stop button on the InteliLite front
panel. It is active in MAN mode only.
FaultResButton ;
Binary input has the same function as Fault reset button on the InteliLite
front panel.
HornResButton ;
Binary input has the same function as Horn reset button on the InteliLite
front panel.
GCB button ;
Binary input has the same function as GCB button on the InteliLite front
panel. It is active in MAN mode only.
MCB button ;
Binary input has the same function as MCB button on the InteliLite front
panel. It is active in MAN mode only.

The output closes after reaching value of CrankRPM, fixed 30RPM. Opens
after stopping of the engine or in pause during repeated start.
Prestart ;
The output closes prior to the engine start (Prestart) and opens when START
RPM speed is reached. During repeated crank attempts the output is closed
too. The output could be used for pre-glow, pre-heat or prelubrication.
Ready to load ;
The output is closed if genset is running and all electric values are in limits no
alarm is active - it is possible to close GCB or it is already closed. The output
