General Guidelines
What is in this manual?
This manual describes the InteliATSNT PWR (IA-NT-PWR) software, which is designed for automatic
transfer switch applications and provides general information on how to install and operate the
InteliATSNT controller.
This manual is dedicated for
Automatic transfer switch panel builders
Operators of remote gen-sets (started remotely from InteliATSNT)
For everybody who is concerned with installation, operation and maintenance of the gen-set
InteliATS controller SW and HW versions compatibility
Software InteliATSNT is compatible with the InteliATSNT hardware v. 1.3 and higher.
There are two modifications of the InteliATSNT HW - STD and PWR and two modifications of the
InteliATSNT SW –STD and HW which together with the appropriate archive file (IA-NT-STD-HW_1.3-
X.X.AIL for STD HW 1.3, IA-NT-STD-X.X.AIL for STD HW > 1.3 and IA-NT-PWR-X.X.AIL) form the
InteliATSNT PWR or STD controller.
Beside that the InteliATSNT software is compatible with IL-NT AMF HW 1.3 and higher too, which is
used when a low temperature ATS application is needed. In this case the InteliATSNT SW must be
combined (purchased) with the IL-NT AMF 25 LT HW to obtain the low temperature ATS controller.
NOTE:
Because of large variety of InteliATSNT parameters settings, it is not possible to describe all
combinations. Some of InteliATSNT functions are subject of changes depend on SW version.
The data in this manual only describes the product and are not warranty of performance or
characteristic.
CAUTION!
SW and HW must be compatible (e.g. IA-NT firmware and IA-NT HW) otherwise the function will be
disabled. If wrong software is downloaded, message HARDWARE INCOMPATIBLE appears on
controller screen. In this case use Boot load (jumper) programming –close Boot jumper and follow
instructions in LiteEdit, download correct software.
NOTE:
ComAp believes that all information provided herein is correct and reliable and reserves the right to
update at any time. ComAp does not assume any responsibility for its use unless otherwise expressly
undertaken.

Description
Description of the controller system
InteliATSNT is a comprehensive Automatic Transfer Switch controller designed to monitor the incoming
AC mains supply (1 or 3 phases) for under & over voltage, under & over frequency and voltage
unbalance. In the case of any mains supply disproportion it will send a remote start command to the
gen-set and make changeover for both generator and mains contactors. The gen-set requires a
remote start type control unit (e.g. the ComAp InteliLiteNT MRS 10 controller), at least a key-start box
with an external input for the start/stop signal.
The controller is capable of providing the following three different types of changeover (transition)
open delayed transition
open in-phase transition with synch check
closed short-time (100ms) parallel transition with synch check
In order to provide “synch check” the controller has been enhanced by the feature called passive
synchronization. The passive sync (sync check) offers possibility to “synchronize” mains and gen-set
without the need to use speed regulation or - better to say - it offers possibility to wait for the both
sources to get in phase.
System is evaluated as to be in sync according to the predefined parameters –voltage and frequency
difference –if the both sources will get in-phase before the synchronization timeout expires.
Parameters defining breaker delay are taken into the account when the system computes/predicts
exact moment when the both sources are “in phase”.
InteliATSNT controllers are equipped with a powerful graphic display showing icons, symbols and bar-
graphs for intuitive operation, which sets, together with high functionality, new standards in Gen-set
controls & ATS Breaker.
The key features are:
Easy-to-use operation and installation. Factory default configuration covers most of
applications
Different customer changes are possible thanks to the configurability
Excellent remote communication capabilities
High reliability

IA-NT- PWR-2.5-Reference Guide.pdf
Configurability
One of the key features of the controller is high level of adaptability of the system to the needs of
every particular application. The way, how to achieve this, is the configuration.
NOTE:
Use LiteEdit PC software to read configuration from the controller or disk, view it, modify it and write
the configuration to controller or disk.
The firmware contains a number of binary inputs and outputs needed for all necessary functions
available in the firmware. But not all functions are required at the same time on different gen-sets and
also the controller hardware does not have so many input and output terminals. One of the main tasks
of the configuration is mapping of "logical" firmware inputs and outputs to the "physical" hardware
inputs and outputs.
Configuration parts:
1. Mapping of logical binary inputs (functions) or assigning alarms to physical binary input
terminals
2. Mapping of logical binary outputs (functions) to physical binary output terminals
3. Changing language of the controller texts
The controller is delivered with a default configuration, which should fit to most standard
applications. This default configuration can be changed only using PC and LiteEdit software. See
LiteEdit documentation for details.
NOTE:
You need one of communication modules to connect the controller to a PC with LiteEdit. There is a
special easy removable service module for cases, where there is no communication module
permanently attached.
Once the configuration is modified, it can be stored in a file for later usage with another controller or
for backup purposes. The file is called archive and has file extension ".ail". An archive contains full
image of the controller at the moment of saving (if the controller is online to the PC) except firmware,
i.e. besides configuration there are also current adjustment of all setpoints, all measured values, a
copy of history log and a copy of alarm list.
The archive can be simply used for cloning of controllers, which means preparing controllers with
identical configuration and settings.

IL-NT-GPRS GSM and GPRS plug-in modem
CAUTION!
Any manipulation with plug-in module shall be done with disconnected power supply to both controller
and module. Power supply shall be switched on also is same time to both module and controller. Fail
to follow these instructions (power supply active only in controller or only in module) can lead to
module or controller failure!
This plug-in module is a GSM/GPRS modem which can work in two modes of operation based on the
settings in the setpoint COM1 Mode.
Settings DIRECT = the module works in a GPRS network and enables connection via AirGate
to LiteEdit and WebSupervisor as well as sending SMS alarms.
Settings MODEM = the module works as a standard GSM modem enabling a CSD (Circuit
Switch Data) connection to the controller with LiteEdit or InteliMonitor and sending SMS
alarms.
The communication module IL-NT GPRS works with:
WebSupervisor –internet-based remote monitoring solution
AirGate –powerful connection technology to make internet access as simple as possible
Locate –localization technology
HINT:
Quick guide how to start using this module is in chapter Remote Communication - Short guide how to
start using IL-NT-GPRS module or on ComAp webpage http://www.comap.cz/products/detail/IL-NT-
GPRS.
GPRS and CSD services must be provided by your GSM/GPRS operator for successful operation.
The GPRS and CSD connection should not be used for the firmware update process. Use instead a
wired connection like RS232, USB, RS485 or Ethernet via IB-Lite!
IL-NT-GPRS module doesn’t support a sending of e-mails.
It is necessary to power the controller and individually the IL-NT GPRS module as well.

IL-NT AOUT8 Gauge driver module
IL-NT AOUT8 is optional plug-in card. Through this card controller can drive up to 8 VDO style
industrial/automotive gauges. Noncompensated gauges like 0-10V or 0-20mA are not supported.
Gauge type and value are configured in LiteEdit software. Any analog value from controller may be
shown in that way.
To insert the module, you must open the cover first (use screwdriver to open) and then insert the
module into slot. Once you have insert it, the module will snap under plastic teeth. It is supposed to be
installed permanently. Should you need to remove it, the safest way is to remove whole back cover
and then remove module manually.
Installing IL-NT AOUT8 module is similar to installing RS 232 module. The difference is that module
fits to “extension module” slot and after installing IL-NT AOUT8 you do not put back the small cover.
PC Installation Suite consist a set of prepared converting curves for basic usage of PWM outputs with
automotive gauges.
