Remote Annunciator Alarm Kits: GM17071-KP1, GM17071-KP1S,

Introduction

The remote annunciator allows the operator to monitor
the generator set condition from a remote location.
When a generator alarm condition occurs, the remote
annunciator alerts the operator through visual and
audible signals. The remote annunciator kit includes a
14-relay dry contact box to isolate the annunciator from
the controller and to protect the controller from voltage
surges and stray voltage. See Figure 1.

When a generator alarm condition occurs, the
appropriate relay contacts close to activate the horn and
corresponding lamp on the remote annunciator. Mount
the remote annunciator in a location easily observable
by operating personnel at their work stations.

Read the entire installation procedure and compare the
kit parts with the parts list in this publication before

beginning installation. Perform the steps in the order
shown. Observe applicable national and local electrical
codes when installing the wiring system.

Features

The

following

paragraphs

describe

the

remote

annunciator specific features.

Alarm Horn

Alarm Horn.

The alarm horn sounds when a fault or

prealarm condition exists, except emergency stop,
battery charger fault, or low battery voltage. Silence the
alarm horn when the generator set master switch is in
the AUTO position. The alarm horn will not silence when
the NOT IN AUTO lamp is lit.

See the installation

procedure, step 8, for the resetting instructions.
