User Setting for Voltage & Frequency
Standard 3-Phase Sensing on 3 and 4 Pole Units
Source 1
Under Voltage “Restore”
Factory Default: 90%
This adjustment determines the minimum acceptable voltage
required to transfer to Source 1. Adjust via the SET menu.
Under Voltage “Fail”
Factory Default: 80%
This adjustment determines the low voltage threshold.
Adjust via the SET menu. Range is 75% to 98% in 1%
below “Restore” setting. Once voltage falls below threshold,
P timer begins timing to signal Source 2 Generator to start.
Under Frequency “Restore”
Factory Default: 95%
This adjustment determines the minimum acceptable
frequency required to transfer to Source 1. Adjust
via the SET menu. Range is 90% to 100% in 1%
timer will begin timing to transfer to Source 1.
