NOTE:
Engine speed signal is derived from the frequency of generator output
voltage, it is used for control and failure protection parameters, for the
convenience of user, some data is expressed by RPM, RPM = Hz * 60 /
pair of poles.
While the Genset is running, if there are high coolant temperature, low oil
pressure or over speed failure occurs, the controller will shutdown it
immediately without delay. During the cool down period, if there is low oil
pressure failure, the alarm will be active no matter if there is idle function.
CAUTION:
During the period of safety-on delay, low oil pressure protection is
inactive. To avoid starting an engine with no oil, you must make sure the
oil levels are normal and the safety-on delay shall be carefully and
properly set for the first commissioning.

I try to start a 60 kva generator with DCP 10 but it doesn't start but bypass the DCP and start direct from the kick starter and the generator start.

The FG Wilson 60 kVA generator may not start with the DCP-10 for several reasons based on the provided context:

1. Incorrect Mode Selection – If the generator is in Auto mode, the Start and Stop buttons will not work manually. Ensure it is in Manual mode if manual starting is required.

2. Remote Start Wiring Issue – The remote start connections are made using wires 24 and 5, which must be correctly connected to the terminal block as per the genset’s wiring schematic. If these connections are incorrect, the generator may not start.

3. Fault Conditions – If there is an active fault buzzer, it may indicate an issue preventing the generator from starting. The mute/lamp test button can be used to check for faults.

4. Parameter Settings – If the parameters are not correctly set, the generator may not function as expected. The scroll button allows access and modification of parameters.

5. Safety Shutdowns – The system may have triggered a shutdown due to overspeed, high temperature, or low pressure. These must be checked and resolved before restarting.

Checking these factors should help diagnose why the generator is not starting.

I try to start a 60 kva generator with DCP 10 but it will not start, but bypass the DCP 10 and start direct from the Kickstarter and the engine started, what could have happened. But the code it shows is the failed to start . What do i do.

A FG Wilson 60 kVA generator with a DCP-10 controller may fail to start when using the Kickstarter due to several possible reasons:

1. Fuel Relay Not Energizing – If the fuel relay does not energize, the fuel solenoid will not operate, preventing fuel flow to the engine.

2. Start Relay Not Activating – If the start relay does not energize after the 300ms delay, the starter motor will not engage to crank the engine.

3. Crank Cutout RPM Not Reached – If the engine does not reach the required crank cutout RPM, the start relay will not de-energize, and the engine may fail to start.

4. Controller Not in Manual Mode – The generator must be in "MANUAL" mode for the Kickstarter to initiate the start sequence.

5. Safety-On Delay Failure – If the safety-on delay does not time out properly or detects an issue, the controller may prevent the engine from running.

6. Battery or Electrical Connection Issues – A weak or disconnected battery could prevent the starter motor from engaging.

7. Stop Failure Condition – If a previous stop failure has not been resolved and the controller has not been reset, the crank relay output will not energize.

Checking these factors can help diagnose the issue and restore normal starting operation.

Hi, can you advise on which page, section, and parameter I can go to and set up our generator ( FG Wilson , Model P2003) to shut down on no- laod
