engine temperature, fuel level and more
user-friendly interface and full graphics LCD.
• Event log for 30 events
It includes engine safety monitoring, genset voltage and
frequency measurement (true RMS). • Counters for engine starts, stops and running hours

Fully configurable analogue and digital inputs/outputs are • Multiple level passwords to protect against unauthorised
provided for various features. changes to the configuration

Start and stop gensets remotely using the Remote start/stop

function.

Deep sleep mode is a useful feature that extends the battery

lifetime by suspending the normal controller functions of when the
genset is off.

Configure parameters from a PC using DEIF’s configuration

software (Microsoft Windows based). Connect to the PC through
the controller’s USB Type-B port.

The sensor common point (SCP) terminal 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 analogue 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 analogue sensor measurements are always available in a wide variety of field conditions.

• Do not connect the Starter motor relay and the Stop solenoid directly to the controller's output terminals.
• Genset and mains contactor latching relays should be compiled against 4 kVA surge as per IEC-61000-4-5 standard.
