Faults and Warnings
Under certain conditions, the Auto Gen Start generates a fault or warning
message. These messages appear on the System Control Panel. This
section describes how to respond to fault and warning messages when
they appear.
Acknowledging
messages
When a fault or warning message appears, you can acknowledge the
message by pressing Enter on the System Control Panel. This action
removes the message from the screen. After acknowleding the message,
you can proceed configuring or operating the Auto Gen Start.This action
does not clear the condition that caused the fault or warning, however.
Consult Table 5-1 and Table 5-2 for suggested actions to take after you
have acknowledged the message.
You can acknowledge warnings that are in the form of a Yes/No question
by pressing Enter for Yes and Exit for No.
Self-clearing
warnings
If unacknowledged, some warnings may clear themselves if the condition
that generated the message goes away. For example, if the Auto Gen Start
fails to start the generator, warning message W202 appears. However, if
the generator starts on the next start try, the message goes away.
Clearing faults To clear active Auto Gen Start faults, highlight Clear Faults on the Auto
Gen Start menu and press Enter.
Multiple faults
and warnings
If several fault or warning messages occur before you can acknowledge or
clear them, they are displayed together on a fault list or a warning list.
These lists contain messages from every Xanbus-enabled device, not just
the Auto Gen Start. You can select a message and view its details from the
fault list or warning list.
To view a message from a fault list or warning list:
1. On the list, use the up arrow or down arrow button to highlight the
message you want to view.
2. Press Enter.
The complete message appears.
After viewing the message, you can return to the fault list or warning list
by pressing Exit or continue to the menu for the device that caused the
fault or warning by pressing Enter. Each time you return to the list after
viewing a complete message, the viewed message is removed from the
list.
If you have left the fault list or warning list, you can view them at any
time from the System Settings menu.
