DSE Model 5310 Automatic Mains Failure & Instrumentation System Operators Manual
Part No. 057-013 5310 OPERATING MANUAL ISSUE 7.1 18/06/2007 ADM 5
1 INTRODUCTION
The DSE 5310 autostart module has been designed to allow the user to start and stop the generator, and if
required, transfer the load to the generator either manually (via external push-buttons) or automatically. The user
also has facility to view all the system operating parameters via the LCD display.
The DSE 5310 module monitors the engine, indicating the operational status and fault conditions; automatically
shutting down the engine and giving a true first up fault condition of an engine failure by a COMMON AUDIBLE
ALARM. The exact failure mode is indicated by text messages on the LCD display on the front panel.
The powerful microprocessor contained within the module allows for a range of complex features to be
incorporated as standard:
•Text based LCD display (supporting multiple languages).
•Voltage, Current and Power monitoring.
•Engine parameter monitoring.
•Fully configurable inputs for use as alarms or a range of different functions.
•Extensive range of output functions using built in relay outputs or relay expansion modules available.
Selective operational sequences, timers and alarm trips can be altered by the customer via a PC using the 52/53xx
series configuration software and P810 interface. Additionally, a subset of this information can be adjusted from the
module’s front panel configuration editor.
The module is housed in a robust plastic case for front panel mounting. Connections to the module are via locking
plug and sockets.

3.1 AUTOMATIC MODE OF OPERATION
NOTE:- If a digital input configured to panel lock is active, changing module modes will not be
possible. Viewing the instruments and iis NOT affected by panel lock. If panel lock is active the
Panel lock indicator (if configured) illuminates.
This mode is activated by pressing the pushbutton. An LED indicator beside the button confirms this
action.
If the Remote Start input (if configured) is activated the relevant indicator (if configured) illuminates.
To allow for false remote start signals, the Start Delay timer is initiated. After this delay, if the pre-heat output option
is selected then the pre-heat timer is initiated, and the corresponding auxiliary output (if configured) will energise.
NOTE:- If the Remote Start signal is removed during the Start Delay timer, the unit will return to a
stand-by state.
After the above delays the Fuel Solenoid (or enable ECU output if configured) is energised, then one second
later, the Starter Motor is engaged.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, compatible ECU’s will receive the start command
via CAN.
The engine is cranked for a pre-set time. If the engine fails to fire during this cranking attempt then the starter
motor is disengaged for the pre-set rest period. Should this sequence continue beyond the set number of attempts,
the start sequence will be terminated and Fail to Start fault will be displayed.
Alarm
Shutdown
Failed to start
When the engine fires, the starter motor is disengaged and locked out at a pre-set frequency from the Alternator
output. Alternatively, a Magnetic Pickup mounted on the flywheel housing can be used for speed detection (This is
selected by PC using the 5xxx series configuration software). Rising oil pressure can also be used to disconnect
the starter motor; however, it cannot be used for underspeed or overspeed detection.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, speed sensing is via CAN.

After the starter motor has disengaged, the Safety On timer is activated, allowing Oil Pressure, High Engine
Temperature, Under-speed, Charge Fail and any delayed Auxiliary fault inputs to stabilise without triggering the
fault.
Once the engine is running, the Warm Up timer, if selected, is initiated, allowing the engine to stabilise before
accepting the load.
If an auxiliary output has been selected to give a load transfer signal, this then activates.
NOTE:-A load transfer will not be initiated until the Oil Pressure has risen. Thus preventing
excessive wear on the engine.
On removal of the Remote Start signal, the Stop delay timer is initiated, once it has timed out, the load Transfer
signal is de-energised, removing the load. The Cooling timer is then initiated, allowing the engine a cooling down
period off load before shutting down. Once the Cooling timer expires the Fuel Solenoid is de-energised, bringing
the generator to a stop.
Should the Remote Start signal be re-activated during the cooling down period, the set will return on load.

possible. Viewing the instruments and event logs iis NOT affected by panel lock. If panel lock is
active the Panel lock indicator (if configured) illuminates.
To initiate a start sequence in MANUAL, press the pushbutton. When the controller is in the manual mode
(indicated by an LED indicator beside the button), pressing the START (I) button will initiate the start sequence.
NOTE:- There is no Start Delay in this mode of operation.
If the pre-heat output option is selected this timer is then initiated, and the auxiliary output selected is energised.
After the above delay, the Fuel Solenoid (or ECU output if configured) is energised, then one second later, the
Starter Motor is engaged.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, compatible ECU’s will receive the start command
via CAN.
The engine is cranked for a pre-set time period. If the engine fails to fire during this cranking attempt then the
starter motor is disengaged for the pre-set rest period. Should this sequence continue beyond the set number of
attempts, the start sequence will be terminated and Fail to Start will be displayed.
When the engine fires, the starter motor is disengaged and locked out at a pre-set frequency from the Alternator
output. Alternatively, a Magnetic Pickup mounted on the flywheel housing can be used for speed detection (This is
selected by PC using the 52/53xx series configuration software). Rising oil pressure can also be used to
disconnect the starter motor; however, it cannot be used for underspeed or overspeed detection.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, speed sensing is via CAN.
After the starter motor has disengaged, the Safety On timer is activated, allowing Oil Pressure, High Engine
Temperature, Under-speed, Charge Fail and any delayed Auxiliary fault inputs to stabilise without triggering the
fault.
Once the engine is running, the Warm Up timer, if selected, is initiated, allowing the engine to stabilise before it
can be loaded.
The generator will run off load, unless the Remote Start on load signal is applied or, if Close generator has been
selected as a control source, the appropriate auxiliary output will then activate.
The generator will continue to run On load, until the Auto mode is selected.
If Auto mode is selected, and the remote start on load signal is not active, then the Stop Delay Timer begins,
after which, the load is disconnected. The generator will then run off load allowing the engine a cooling down
period.
Selecting STOP (O) de-energises the FUEL SOLENOID, bringing the generator to a stop.

4.5 HIGH CURRENT SHUTDOWN ALARM
GENERATOR HIGH CURRENT, if the module detects a generator output current in excess of the pre-set trip a
warning is initiated. This warning will continue for a period of time depending upon the level of overload that the
generator is subjected to, and the configuration setting for Generator High Current in the 5xxx series configuration
software.
Alarm
Shutdown
High current trip
For instance the factory default settings for Generator High Current allow for a loading of the generator to 110% for
one hour. That is to say if the generator load level exceeds the trip point by 10%, a warning alarm will occur while
the overload condition exists. If the load level does not drop to normal levels within one hour, the set is stopped,
the 5310 module displaying either shutdown alarm or electrical trip alarm depending upon module configuration.
NOTE:- Higher overload levels will result in a faster acting shutdown condition. For instance with
the factory default configuration, an overload level twice that of the trip level ( typically 200%) will result
in a Generator High Current shutdown condition after 36 seconds.
For details of the relationship between the overload and the shutdown time, please see the Appendix
section of this manual.
4.6 ELECTRICAL TRIPS
Electrical trips are latching and stop the Generator but in a controlled manner. On initiation of the electrical trip
condition the module will de-energise the ‘Close Generator’ Output to remove the load from the generator. Once
this has occurred the module will start the Cooling timer and allow the engine to cool off-load before shutting down
the engine. The alarm must be accepted and cleared, and the fault removed to reset the module.
AUXILIARY INPUTS, if an auxiliary input has been configured as an electrical trip the appropriate message will be
displayed as configured by the user.
Example
Alarm

Phase rotation
GENERATOR HIGH CURRENT. If the module detects a generator output current in excess of the pre-set trip a
warning is initiated. If this high current condition continues for an excess period of time, then the alarm is escalated
to either a shutdown or electrical trip condition (depending upon module configuration). For further details of the
high current alarm, please see High Current Shutdown Alarm.
