2. Product overview
LXC61X0Eseries of power plant automation controller for the automation and monitoring system of a
single diesel generator sets, use 32-bit microprocessor technology, achieve generator sets automatic
boot/shutdown, the precision measurement of various parameters, alarm protection and three remote
function. The controller uses a large-screen LCD (240*128LCD)graphics display, all the important
parameters can be displayed in page, save the page. At the same time can be displayed Chinese、English
and other languages, all parameters can be adjusted from the controller panel, can also be a PC through
a USB interface tweaks and RS485 or GPRS remote adjustment and monitoring. Its structure is compact,
simple wiring, high reliability, automation control systems are widely used in all types of generator sets
and fire pumps.
Main characteristics:
With ARM-based 32-bit CPU, highly integrated hardware, new reliability level;
240x128 LCD with backlight, multilingual interface(including English, Chinese or other languages)
which can be chosen at the site, making commissioning convenient for factory personnel;
All parameters can use the computer via USB, RS232, RS485 interface to connect and adjust, while
the internal FLASH memory within the controller in the system when power is not lost;
99% of the parameters can be set directly from the front panel for easy on-site commissioning;
RS485 communication port enabling remote control, remote measuring, remote communication via
Mod Bus protocol (controller with RS485 port only);
Equipped with SMS(Short Message Service)function. When genset is alarming, controller can send
short messages via SMS automatically to max.5 telephone numbers. besides, generator status can
be controlled and checked using SMS. With advanced networking capabilities, via GPRS mobile
network and Internet connectivity, in any place where the network can be remotely monitor;( Need to
install the GPRS module: LXI680);
Suitable for 3-phase 4-wire,3-phase 3wire,single phase 2-wire,and 2-phase 3-wire (120/240V)power
and 50/60Hz Systems;
Collects and shows 3-phase voltage, current, power parameter and frequency of generator or mains;
For Mains, controller has over and under voltage, over and under frequency, loss of phase and phase
sequence wrong detection functions; For generator, controller has over and under voltage, over and
under frequency, loss of phase, phase sequence wrong, over current functions;
3 fixed analog sensors(temperature, oil pressure and liquid level),more kinds of curves of
temperature,oil pressure, fuel level can be used directly and users can define the sensor curves by
themselves;
Protection: Automatic start/stop of the genset, ATS(Auto Transfer Switch)control with perfect fault
indication and protection function. When multiple warnings occur, the warning bar will rotate to
display them, so that we can analyze the reasons;
All output ports are relay-out, And the main output 16A relay outputs and three passive relay output,
more user-friendly;

LXC61X0E SERIES GENSET CONTROLLER
A variety of starting conditions for success (speed sensor, oil pressure, power generation) to select,
to facilitate the needs of special occasions;
Wide power supply range (8 ~ 35) VDC, can adapt to different environment starting battery voltage,
can under the low voltage of starting motor moment continue to work for 3 seconds;
Fault history with 200, and can record the fault instant oil pressure ,water temperature, voltage,
current and other important parameters;
Equipped with real-time clock,regular maintenance functions;
3 set of maintenance functions, can be set for the machine maintenance cycle .Maintenance time to
action can be set up(only warning or alarm stop);
Waterproof security level IP55 due to rubber seal installed between the controller enclosure and
panel fascia;
Improved LCD wear-resistance and scratch resistance due to hard screen acrylic;
Silicon panel and push buttons for better operation in high-temperature environment,and has a good
waterproof performance;
Modular design, anti-flaming ABS plastic enclosure, plug gable connection terminals and embedded
installation way, compact structure with easy mounting.

In the control panel buttons to view controller before abnormal downtime record, including the time of the
outage warning content display and the state, the controller can record 142 abnormal downtime record
recently.
Generator controller will fail instantly record all monitoring parameters, users can remotely view or
download, user analyze the cause, because a single record of data is very large, the controller can see
the main part of the parameters, other parameters need to access via PC connection . If you need remote
access monitoring software through GPRS wireless remote access to data.

NOTE:
1.Is there a difference if standard curve of sensor with the use of sensors, can be change by itself in the
custom curve, when the sensor selection is "no", the curve of sensor doesn't work.
2.If the corresponding sensors, only alarm switch, is the sensor must be set to "no", otherwise likely stop
alarm or warning.

LXC61X0E SERIES GENSET CONTROLLER
As shown above, check the desired options, multiple choice or do not choose.
1.There are 4 conditions to make starter disconnected with engine,that is,speed sensor, generator
frequency ,Charge D + and engine oil pressure. They all can be used separately. We recommend that
engine oil pressure should be using with speed sensor and generator frequency together, in order to
make the starter motor is separated with engine immediately and can check crank disconnect exactly.
2.Speed sensor is the magnetic equipment which be installed in starter for detecting flywheel teeth.
3.When set as speed sensor, must ensure that the number of flywheel teeth is as same as setting,
otherwise,“over speed stop”or“under speed stop”may be caused.
4.If genset without speed sensor, please don’t select corresponding items, otherwise, “start fail”or“loss
speed signal”maybe caused.
5.If genset without oil pressure sensor, please don’t select corresponding items.
6.If not select generator in crank disconnect setting, controller will not collect and display the relative
power quantity (can be used in water pump set);if not select speed sensor in crank disconnect setting,
the rotating speed displayed in controller is calculated by generator frequency and number of poles.
7.If the generator without magnetoelectric sensor and Oil pressure sensor,the“Charger D+”is optional as
a starter motor separation conditions.It is recommended to select“Oil Pressure+ Charger D+”for safety.
