Switching from Electric to Diesel
Units equipped with the SMARTPOWER option only.
If the Electric to Diesel Auto-Switch Enabled feature in
Guarded Access is set YES then the unit will automatically
switch to Diesel Mode operation when standby power is turned
off or is no longer available.
If the Electric to Diesel Auto-Switch Enabled feature in
Guarded Access is set NO and standby power is disconnected
or fails, the unit will not automatically switch to Diesel Mode.
This is primarily designed to prevent unauthorized diesel
engine starts when the truck is indoors or on a ferry where
engine operation is strictly prohibited. If the Electric to Diesel
Auto-Switch Enabled feature in Guarded Access is set NO then
the prompt screen (Figure 61) will appear when standby power
is turned off or is no longer available.
Figure 61: Standby Power is Off
If YES is selected then the display will briefly show the screen
in Figure 62.
