Safety Instructions
General Instructions
✓ This document includes important instructions that should be followed during installation and
maintenance of the generator Set controller.
✓ For safety reasons, the manufacturer recommends that this equipment be installed and serviced by an
authorized service personnel. Follow all applicable state and local electrical codes.
✓ Efficient and safe operation of the controller can be acquired only if the equipment is correctly
operated, configured and maintained. Many accidents arise due to ignorance or illiteracy towards the
elemental rules of safety and precautions.
The following safety notations found throughout this document indicate potentially hazardous conditions
to the operator, service personnel or the equipment.
Electrical Safety
✓ Electric shock can cause severe personal injury or death.
✓ Ensure the generator set must be grounded before performing any installation or service.
✓ Generators produce high electrical voltages, direct contact with it can cause fatal electrical shock.
Prevent contact with terminals, bare wires, connections, etc., while the generator and related equip-
ment are running. Do not tamper with interlocks.
✓ To handle the maximum electrical current, sizes of wire gauge used for electrical connections and wir-
ings must be appropriate to which they will be subjected to.
In Operation Safety
✓ Before installing genset controller, ensure that all power voltage supplies are positively turned off at
their source. Disconnect the generator’s battery cables and remove panel fuse to prevent accidental
start up. Disconnect the cable from the battery post, indicated by a NEGATIVE, NEG, or (–) first.
Reconnect the negative cable last. Failure to do so will result in hazardous and possibly fatal electrical
shock.
✓ Remove electric power supply before removing controller or touching other electrical parts.
✓ Use extreme caution when working on electrical components. High voltage can cause injury or death.
✓ Use rubber insulative mats placed on dry wood platforms over floors that are metal or concrete when
working near generator set or other electrical equipment.
✓ Do not wear damp clothing (particularly wet shoes) or allow skin surface to be damp when handling
electrical equipment.
✓ Do not operate any electrical device or wires while standing in water, while barefoot, or while hands or
feet are wet. It may result in severe electrical shock.

✓ Do not wear jewellery. Jewellery can cause a short circuit within electrical contacts and cause shock
or burning.
✓ In case of an accident caused by electric shock, immediately shut down the electrical power source. If
this is not possible, try to release the victim from the live conductor. Avoid direct contact with the
victim. Use a nonconducting object, like, a rope or wooden stick, to release the victim from the live
conductor. If the victim is unconscious, apply first aid and get immediate medical help.

The Magnetic Pick Up (MPU) is an inductive sensor fitted on the engine flywheel for the engine
speed sensing. The output of MPU is a sine-wave signal.
Genset & mains contactor latching relays should be compiled against 4kVA surge as
per IEC-61000-4-5 standard.

below 3 watts)
Accuracy ±1% of full scale
The D+ CHG ALT is combine input and output terminal. When the genset starts, the terminal
provides controlled power output to excite the charging alternator. Once the charging alternator is
excited and starts providing voltage to battery, this terminal is used as input to sense the output
voltage of the charging alternator. In case of the charging alternator failure the GCU acts as per the
pre-configuration settings.
Important Note: The sensor common point (SCP) terminal (Pin # 41) of the
controller should be directly connected to an electrically sound point on the engine
body. This point on the engine body should serve as a common reference point for
all analog sensors such as those for measuring lube oil pressure, engine
temperature and fuel level. The electrical cable used for the connection should not
be shared with any other electrical connection. Such a wiring practice is strongly
recommended to ensure that there is negligible potential difference, if any, between
the engine body and the controller's SCP terminal, and predictable and accurate
analog sensor measurements are always available in a wide variety of field
conditions.

the preconfigured Remote start/stop input. The controller will latch genset contactor when controller
confirms that all the engine and genset parameters are within the configured thresholds. When the
preconfigured input is deactivated the controller will open the genset contactor.

Cyclic mode
This mode is used for running the genset for a pre-specified time for a cycle of max 12 hours each.
The time of genset to be kept ON & OFF is configurable.
Mains is being monitored in this mode. Load is on mains when mains is healthy. If mains is detected
unhealthy, genset will start for DG ON time. Genset contactor will get latched when the genset is

GC1100 SEDEMAC
healthy and the warm up time is elapsed. After completion of the ON time, genset turns OFF taking
cooling down time. Then controller will start DG off time.
After completion of DG OFF time, DG ON time will start and this cycle will continue until mains is
detected healthy. During any of the times, if mains is detected healthy, both the timers are reset to
zero and load will shift to mains after taking return delay. This process continues in cyclic mode.

Alarms
GC1100 controller allows to configure several Shutdown/Electrical trip, Warning and Notification alarms
such as Low Oil Pressure Shutdown, Over Load Warning and many more.
An alarm condition occurs when the preconfigured parameter is out of pre-set level. On initiation of an
alarm, the Alarm LED will start blinking and Sounder alarm will be activated if configured. The controller
will display name of alarms along with count on ALARMS screen and the nature of alarm on ENGINE
STATUS screen. For acknowledging the alarms, press “UP + DOWN” keys simultaneously. All the
alarms have activation from Engine ON i.e. after crank disconnect or Monitoring ON i.e. after
completion of safety monitoring timer or Always. The controller will not issue the start command if the
Warning, Electrical trip or shutdown alarm left unacknowledged. Table 27 shows the types of alarms
whereas Table 28 shows various alarms their probable causes and remedial action.

Communications Protocol
Introduction to Communication Protocol
GC1100 genset controller support two communication protocol: a custom protocol based on MODBUS
over a RS485 layer and a custom protocol over a CAN layer.
Figure 20: RS485 MODBUS connection with the help of two core shielded twisted pair cable
The transmission mode used by GC1100 controller is MODBUS RTU (not
MODBUS ASCII). The byte format for communication is 1 start bit, 8 data bits,
with/without parity bit and 1 stop bit. The baud rate is selectable between 1200
kbps to 115200 kbps through the configuration options. Similarly, the slave ID can
be selected through the configuration options.
SEDEMAC GC1100 genset controller operates as a MODBUS slave that responds to certain
commands received from the MODBUS master.
RS485 MODBUS communication is initiated by a Master with a query to a Slave. The Slave which is
constantly looking for Queries from master will recognise only the Queries addressed to it and will
respond either by performing an action or by returning a response. Only the Master can initiate a query.
Page | 43
GC1100 SEDEMAC
Precautions
• Keep the slave ID of the GC1100 controller and SMPS same, take the slave ID from the SMPS
and configure the same ID in GC1100.
• Enable the GC1100 in the configuration of the SMPS after hardware connections are made, so
the SMPS can communicate with the GC1100.
• Connect the Pin # 16 & 15 (A & B) of the GC1100 to the pin # A & B of the SMPS respectively
and not with any other pin.
• Use two core shielded cable for connection.
• Use different colour wires for Pin # 16 & 15 (A & B) for easy detection and connection.
• Route the Pin # 16 & 15 (A & B) wires properly ensuring they do not get short with any other
wires.
• Do not use multi strand wires for the connection.
