SMARTBOX™ Controller for HONEYWELL™ Wind Turbine WT6500 Owner's Manual - Rev14
The SMARTBOX™ Controller constantly monitors the status of the turbine. Any
time the turbine senses a fault, the dynamic brake will stop the turbine and the
SMARTBOX™ Controller will stop producing energy from the turbine. "TURBINE
FAULT" will be displayed on the LCD screen along with the fault detected. The user
must clear any faults in order to restart the turbine.
If a fault occurs, follow these steps to clear it:
1. View the faults listed and correct the fault.
2. Press ENTER on the front panel. If the fault is fixed the controller will go to
stop state. If the system finds any other faults, the next fault will be displayed.
3. When all faults are clear, go to start/stop turbine in the menu and restart the
turbine.
