1.Introduction
The unit provides for automatic transfer of a load from mains to generator in the event of a mains
failure. Intended for unattended operation, it is able to detect failure of any phase of the mains and to
start and switch over to a generator if the mains voltage goes outside pre-set limits. Both automatic
and manual control is possible. A test mode is also available which allows the generator to be run
without taking the load.
The unit calculates engine RPM from Magnetic Pickup sensor input (Trans-MiniAMF.MPU devices
only) and/or generator voltage signal. At Trans-MiniAMF.CAN devices, unit gets engine RPM
information from J1939 ECU.
The unit monitors J1939 ECU messages and provides remote start/stop control via J1939 protocol at
only Trans-MiniAMF.CAN devices (supported ECUs: Volvo EMS2, Volvo EDC4, Perkins and standard
messages).
In the event that the engine fails to start on the first attempt, the attempt will be repeated a programmed
number of times or until successful.
The unit monitors generator operation and gives warning of any faults that are detected.
If a fault is detected, the unit shuts down the engine and shows the failure message on the LCD display.
