1 INTRODUCTION
This document details the installation and operation requirements of the DSE8003 MKII module, part
of the DSEGenset®range of products.
The manual forms part of the product and should be kept for the entire life of the product. If the
product is passed or supplied to another party, ensure that this document is passed to them for
reference purposes.
This is not a controlled document. You will not be automatically informed of updates. Any future
updates of this document will be included on the DSE website at www.deepseaplc.com
The DSE8003 MKII is used in conjunction with the DSE73xx MKII (V4.2 and upwards), DSE74xx MKII
(V4.2 and upwards) and DSE8xxx MKII series of modules. The DSE8003 MKII is NOT a standalone
module.
The DSE73xx MKII, DSE74xx MKII and DSE8xxx MKII series are designed to provide differing levels
of functionality across a common platform. This allows the generator OEMs greater flexibility in the
choice of controller to use for a specific application.
The DSE modules have been designed to allow the operator to start and stop the generator, and if
required, transfer the load to the generator either manually (via fascia mounted push buttons) or
automatically.
Synchronising and Load Sharing features are included within the DSE8xxx MKII modules, along with
the necessary protections for such a system. This provides forward sync, back sync (no break
changeover) and start/stop upon changing load levels.
The user also has the facility to view the system operating parameters via the LCD display.
The DSE genset modules monitor 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 LCD display indicates the fault.
The powerful microprocessor contained within the module allows for of a range of enhanced features
when connected to a supported module:
•Text and image based colour 7” TFT LCD display (800 x 480 pixels)
•True RMS Voltage, Current and Power display.
•Engine parameter display.
Using a PC and the DSE SCADA Suite software allows alteration of the graphical interface.
Additionally, the DSE8003 MKII integral front panel configuration editor allows adjustment of
connected modules.
A robust plastic case designed for front panel mounting houses the module. Connections are via
locking plug and sockets.
Access to critical operational sequences and timers for use by qualified engineers, can be protected
by a security code. Module access can also be protected by PIN code. Selected parameters can be
changed from the module’s front panel.
The module is housed in a robust plastic case suitable for panel mounting. Connections to the module
are via locking plug and sockets.

2.6 COMMUNICATION PORT USE
2.6.1 USB CONNECTION
2.6.1.1 USB SLAVE PORT (FIRMWARE UPDATE)
NOTE: For further details of module configuration, refer to DSE Publication: 057-128
DSE8005 SCADA Suite Software Manual.
NOTE: DSE stock 2 m (6.5 feet) USB type A to type B cable, DSE Part Number: 016-125.
Alternatively, they are purchased from any PC or IT store.
The DSE8003 MKII requires a different firmware version to communicate to the DSE73xx MKII and
DSE74xx MKII units compared with the DSE86xx MKII units.
Using the DSE Configuration Suite Software, the USB slave port provides a simple means of
connection between a PC and the controller to change the firmware version in the controller.
To connect a module to a PC by USB, the following items are required:
•DSE8003 MKII Controller
•DSE Configuration Suite PC Software
(Available from www.deepseaelectronics.com).
•USB cable Type A to Type B.
(This is the same cable as often used between a PC and
a USB printer)
2.6.1.2 USB HOST PORT (CONFIGURATION)
NOTE: For further details of module configuration, refer to DSE Publication: 057-128
DSE8005 SCADA Suite Software Manual.
USB Type A connection for connection to an external USB storage device with a maximum size of
16 GB to provide a means of uploading the configuration file to the module

057-276 ISSUE: 1.3
2.6.2 RS232 PORT
NOTE: For direct connection an RS232 null modem (crossover) cable is required. This is
rated to a maximum cable length of 15 m (49 feet).
RS232 is for short distance communication of maximum 15 m (49 feet) and is typically used to
connect the DSE8003 MKII to a single module for remote communications.
The various operating parameters (such as mains voltage, bus frequency, load kW, etc.) of the
system are available to be viewed.
2.6.3 RS485 PORT
NOTE: For a single module to module connection and distances up to 15 m (49 feet) the
RS232 connection method is more suitable and provides for a lower cost alternative to RS485
(which is more suited to longer distance connections).
NOTE: The DSE8003 MKII Colour Display Module supports maximum a combination of
FOUR DSE73xx MKII and DSE74xx MKII modules.
RS485 is used for point-to-point cable connection of more than one device (maximum 20). One
advantage of the RS485 interface is the large distance specification which is 1.2 km when using
Belden 9841 (or equivalent) cable. This allows for a large distance between the DSE8004 and
multiple modules.
2.6.3.1 CABLE SPECIFICATION
NOTE: DSE recommend Belden 9841 (or equivalent) cable for RS485 communication. This
is rated to a maximum cable length of 1.2 km. DSE Stock Belden 9841 cable, DSE Part Number:

2.6.4 ETHERNET PORT
NOTE: DSE stock 2 m (6.5 feet) Ethernet Cable, DSE Part Number: 016-137. Alternatively,
they can be purchased from any PC or IT store.
NOTE: The DSE8003 MKII Colour Display Module supports maximum a combination of
FOUR DSE73xx MKII and DSE74xx MKII modules.
Ethernet is used for point-to-point cable connection of more than one device (maximum 20). One
advantage of the Ethernet interface is the ability to interface into an existing LAN (Local Area
Network) connection for remote connection via an internet connection. This allows for a large distance
between the DSE8003 MKII and multiple modules.

2.6.4.5 FIREWALL CONFIGURATION FOR INTERNET ACCESS
NOTE: For further details of module configuration, refer to DSE Publication: 057-128
DSE8005 SCADA Suite Software Manual.
As modems or routers differ enormously in their configuration, it is not possible for DSE to give a
complete guide to their use with the module. However it is possible to give a description of the
requirements in generic terms. For details of how to achieve the connection to the modem or router
refer to the supplier of the modem or router equipment.
The module makes its data available over Modbus TCP and as such communicates over the Ethernet
using a Port configured via the DSE SCADA Suite software.
Configure the modem or router to allow inbound traffic on this port. For more information refer to the
WAN interface device (modem/router) manufacturer.
It is also important to note that if the port assigned (setting from software “Modbus Port Number”) is
already in use on the LAN, the module cannot be used and another port must be used.
Outgoing Firewall Rule
As the module makes its user interface available to standard web browsers, all communication uses
the chosen port. It is usual for a firewall to make the same port outgoing open for communication.
Incoming Traffic (Virtual Server)
Network Address and Port Translation (NAPT) allows a single device, such as the modem/router
gateway, to act as an agent between the Internet (or "public external network") and a local (or
"internal private") network. This means that only a single, unique IP address is required to represent
an entire group of computers.
For our application, this means that the WAN IP address of the modem/router is the IP address we
need to access the site from an external (internet) location.
When the requests reach the modem/router, we want this passed to a ‘virtual server’ for handling, in
our case this is the module.
Result: Traffic arriving from the WAN (internet) on port xxx is automatically sent to IP address set
within the configuration software on the LAN for handling.

2.7 SOUNDER
The module features an internal sounder to draw attention to warning, shutdown and electrical trip
alarms.
Description
Specification
Sounder Level
64 db at 1 m
2.7.1 ADDING AN EXTERNAL SOUNDER TO THE APPLICATION
Should an external alarm or indicator be required, this can be achieved by using the DSE8003 MKII
running editor to configure an auxiliary output for “Audible Alarm”. See section entitled Front Panel
Configuration for further details.
The audible alarm output activates and de-activates at the same time as the module’s internal
sounder. The monitored DSE controllers alarm mute input and alarm mute button activate ‘in parallel’
with each other. Either signal will mute both the internal sounder and audible alarm output.
