Warning
1. The installation of this equipment must be carried out by professionals.
2. When installing and operating the controller, please read the entire instruction
manual first.
3. Any maintenance and commissioning of the equipment must be familiar with all the
equipment.
4. Safety standards and precautions in advance, otherwise it may cause personal
injury or damage to related equipment.
5. The engine must have an overspeed protection device independent of the
controller system to avoid casualties or other damage caused by engine out of
control.
6. After the installation of the controller is completed, please verify that all protection
functions are valid.

Be Care
1. Please keep the good connection of the power supply of the controller. Do not
share the connection lines of the positive and negative electrodes of the battery
with the floating charger.
2. During the operation of the engine, do not disconnect the battery, otherwise it may
cause damage to the controller.

1. Summary
This series controller is specialized for Diesel / Gasoline / Gas Genset Start,
Stop, Parameters monitoring, faults-checking as well as data setting.
2.8 inch LCD screen display with brand new UI design is adapted in this
controller that the relative failures can be displayed directly. All the parameters can
be displayed by simulated indicators and words. Besides, LCD screen can display
various faults in the same time that the genset will be stopped once it can’t work
smoothly.
There are Chinese/English interface options, more language can be set
according to user’s request. All the parameters can be configured through the front
face buttons or use programmable interface by RS485 or USB to adjust via PC. It can
be widely applied for all kinds of auto control system of gensets.
2. Main Features

7. Installation instruction
 The controller is fixed by two special fixing members and screws, and the screws
of the metal fasteners cannot be too tight.
 Panel Cutout: W1160mm*H90mm.

Note: If the controller is installed directly in the genset shell or other fluctuated
equipment, the rubber pad must be installed.
Battery Voltage Input
DC4xS/C controller is suitable for 8-36V DC battery voltage. Battery negative must
be reliably connected to the enclosure of the engine. The controller power supply B+
and B- must be connected to battery positive and negative, and the wire size must
not be less than 2.5mm2.

NOTE:
In case of floating charger connect charger output to battery positive and negative
directly, then, connect battery positive and negative poles to controller positive and
negative power supply.
Output and relay expansion

Note: All outputs of the controller are relay contacts. The maximum current
capacity is described in the "Parameters" in this manual. Please use it in the relay
current capacity. If an extended relay is needed, add a continuous current diode
(when the extended relay coil is DC) or a resistance-capacitance loop (when the
extended relay coil is AC) to both ends of the coil to prevent interference with the
controller or other equipment.
 AC current input
Current transformer with rated secondary current 5A must be externally connected
to the controller current input.
17
 DC4xS/C GENSET CONTROLLER USER MANUAL

WARNING: When generator is on-load, C. T. secondary must not be open

circuit, Otherwise, the high voltage generated will pose a danger to personal safety.
Withstanding voltage test

If withstanding voltage test is conducted after the controller has already been
installed onto the control panel, please unplug all controller terminal connections in
order to prevent high voltage from damaging it.

 Notices in Starting Process

Note 1: During the Cranking time, the controller automatically detects the speed
signal, frequency signal and oil pressure value or the charging voltage (according to
the parameter setting) to reach the judgment condition of successful start, then the
judgment is that the start is successful and the motor relay is closed.

Note 2: Within the safety delay, only respond to emergency stop, immediate
stop, over speed, over frequency, Over voltage, ECU communication Failure,shutter
open abnormal, other alarms are not responded to.

Note 3: No response to alarm and warning of under speed, low frequency,

under voltage, over current, over power,non-balance of current,external instant
unloading shutdown,during start idle time.

Note 4: No response to low frequency, under voltage, over current non-balance

of current,external instant unloading shutdown and over power is required when
entering the RPM-up time.

Note 5: No response to low frequency, under voltage, over current non-balance

of current,external instant unloading shutdown and over power is required when
entering the temperature-up time.

Note 6: No response to low frequency, under voltage, over current non-balance

of current,external instant unloading shutdown and over power is required when
entering the Voltage-up time.

Note 7: No response to low frequency, under voltage, over current non-balance

of current,external instant unloading shutdown and over power is required when
entering the Warming-up time.

Note 8: After entering rated operation, the Gens load relay output.

Note 9: In the process of shutdown, if the remote starting signal is restored to

be valid within the " Cooling time", the rated operation will be entered again.

Note 10: If the stop key is pressed again during idle time, the idle time will be
canceled and the stop operation will be executed directly.

10. Warnings and Shutdown Alarms
