OPERATIONNAL MODES
Once the SYNCHRO COMPACT is switched on, you can access the menu on 3 different levels ( To access the password page, press ESC.):
·Level 0 : No password required, just press «ENTER» to access the display,
·Level 1 : Just press «ENTER» to go to Display menu. Press «↓» to select «configuration or «system» of the SYNCHRO COMPACT. Press «ENTER» to switch to password
mode. Press «↑» to change the character; press «→» to move to the next character level 1 password «1».
NOTE : The level 1 password gives you access to minimum settings recommended to start your commissioning on your power plant, is the equivalent of standard mode on
the i4Gen Suite software.
·Level 2 : Just press «ENTER» to go to Display menu. Press «↓» to select «configuration or «system» of the SYNCHRO COMPACT. Press «ENTER» to switch to password
mode. Press «↑» to change the character; press «→» to move to the next character Level 2 password «1234»
NOTE : The level 2 password gives you access to maximum settings to commission your power plant, it is the equivalent of advanced mode on the i4Gen Suite software. For
complex settings use i4Gen Suite (analogue inputs, Easyflex, scheduler,etc ..).

Installation of the i4Gen Suite SOFTWARE
www.cretechnology.com/en/c/33/products/software
PC CONNECTION - WITH I4GEN SUITE SOFTWARE
Click on the icone
“AUTO CONFIGURATION” to adapt all IP’s
addresses
Open the i4Gen Suite
software and go to Easy
Connect menu
Click on the icone “SCAN”.
Your SYNCHRO COMPACT will appear
You can click to connect on the product.
ONCE CONNECTED, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO NAVIGATE THROUGH THE FOLLOWING MENUS
CONTROLLER SUPERVISION
APPLICATION SETTINGS
• Check the emergency stop button. Check if it’s possible to close the breaker on a dead bus. Try to open and close the breaker: then use one or several digital inputs for
which function ‘’Relay 1 forced’’ or ‘’Relay 2 forced’’ has been selected. Disconnect the breaker control output. Check phase direction and phase concordance. Check the
different voltage terminals assignment. Connect speed governor and AVR products, check if you can adjust at nominal value and amplitude at around + /- 8%.
• To increase or decrease the speed, use some digital inputs for which function: ’’ Increase speed in manual mode’’ and ‘’ Decrease speed in manual mode’’ has been
selected. To increase or decrease the voltage, use some digital inputs for which function: ’’ Increase voltage in manual mode’’ and ‘’Decrease voltage in manual mode’’
has been selected.
• Manage synchronization without connection with breaker, and check voltage difference <40Vac on breaker. If Ok, you can adjust the synchronization PID.
Your system is ready
WIRING CONNECTION
For the SYNCHRO COMPACT wiring and dimensions/panel cut out, please check on the website, (www.cretechnology.com/en/couplage/119/synchro-compact) in the technical
documentations section. File : # synchro-compact-hmi-core-standard-wiring-schematics-revision-xxxx.pdf #
PC CONNECTION
Switch on the controller. Connect the Ethernet port (RJ45-LAN) of your computer to the Ethernet port of the controller. To be able to establish communication between the i4Gen Suite
and the controller, the network addresses of both devices should be configured:
1. For PC network configuration, please refer to your Windows network settings.
2. The controller network configuration can be done from the controller front panel or via the i4Gen Suite software.
3. The network configuration of both devices has to be compatible: The IP address by default of CRE TECHNOLOGY controllers is: 192.168.11.1

CONTROLLER STATIC SETTINGS NOTE
Before the commissioning or the operation of your
equipment, please read carefully the user’s manual and
other related documentations. Carefully apply the safety
instructions. Not applying them may lead to human
and machine damages.
Engines, turbines or any other type of Generator must
be equipped with protections (over speed, tempera-
ture, and pressure… depending on your installation).
Any misuse of your equipment can lead to human or
machine damages.
We also offer personalized and specific training on our
product range and software, as well as additional ser-
vices such as: onsite support, application engineering
or specific support.
