Content Function
Press the key, when the above green LED keep bright, the controller is in “start” state,
start the genset in manual and keep running.
Press the key, when the above yellow LED keep bright, the controller is work in “auto”
state, once the “Remote start” switch input turn off and mains get right, the genset will
be stopped after delay. When “Remote start” switch input turn on the genset delay start
otherwise it’s delay cool down; If the genset reset by “remote reset”, once the “remote

Users according the error value of the controller measuring data and the real data
to decide whether you need to data adjust. The controller already adjusted before leave
factory, but it may be some warp in the use environment, if the warp is in the error
range, we suggest not adjusting the data, especially the three phases current. If the
error over too much and need to adjust, please read the <MINCO 820B Genset

battery voltage keep one decimal).Coolant temp.. oil pressure,oil temp.,fuel level
option input are different, MINCO820B controller provide coolant temp.adjust, oil
pressure adjust,oil temp./fuel level adjust to adjust the measuring data. For the possible
error of the coolant temp.,oil pressure, oil temp./fuel level ,MINCO820B provide ±10
％adjusting range。Special explain, for coolant temp. , oil pressure ,oil temp./fuel
level sensors maybe positive modulus (it means the sensor output added along with
input added), it maybe negative modulus (it means the sensor output minish along with
input added), add or minish adjust value lead to adjust effect decide by the real
situation.

Trip speed When start the genset, if examine the genset rotate speed >trip speed, it considers the genset start successful and stop the crank output (trip speed generally setting to 1/3 of
genset normal working rotate speed )
CT ratio CT rate setting correspond ratio is 5, for example the current rate setting in 500, it’s
correspond with 500:5

5.3．Delay time instruction
Delay of “cool
stop(down)” When the controller is in “Auto” state, once the “Remote start” switch input turn off and mains get right, the genset will be stopped after delay.
Delay of
“genset start” When the controller is in “Auto” state, once the “Remote start” switch input turn on or mains failure , the genset will be started after delay.
Delay of
“cranking
time”
When the genset start and begin to delay,if the start succeed condition is
satisfied(genset rotate speed>trip speed) it’s consider to be genset start successful and
stop delay.
Delay of
“Crank
INTerval”
When the cranking time delay ended, if the start succeed condition is not satisfied and
not reach the crank times limit, the delay will be repeated and crank times added 1.
Delay of
“bypass time”
After the gen-set start successfully, that begin to start delay of the bypass. The term
of delay, not monitor "low oil pressure", "high coolant temperature " etc, to avoid
mistake alarm when gen-set in start early.
Delay of
“ETS fuel”
ETS setting in “0”, controller work as Energize to run (ETR),the fuel supply will have
output until stop; “ETS fuel” delay setting in is not in “0”, the controller work as
energize to stop (ETS), the fuel supply act as stop. The fuel supply relay also have
output when the delay start, the fuel supply relay stop output when delay ended and the
oil pressure be lowed.
Delay of
“pre-fuel”
Before the gen-set to start, that begin the delay of pre-fuel. At the same time, the relay
of “pre-fuel” to closed. After the delay be over, the relay of pre-fuel to open, the
gen-set start to crank.
Delay of “idle
(start) ” After the gen-set start successfully, the delay of idle (start) is begin, in the term of delay, the relay of “idle ” begin to work.
Delay of “idle
(stop)” When stopping machine, the delay of idle (stop) is begin. In the term for delay, the relay of “idle ” begin to work.

- 8 -
Delay of
“ACC”
Genset start successful and idle (start) over, it’s beginning ACC delay, ACC relay
closed, if the delay ended but still not get the ACC in the right position signal, it will
be a “ACC failure” alarm.
Delay of “low
oil pressure ”
When genset running, if the pressure of oil is over low, the delay is begin. In the term
of delay, if the oil pressure comeback normal state, the delay will be interrupt. After
the delay is over, if the oil pressure is over low yet, that will appear the alarm of “low
oil pressure”.
Delay of
“high coolant
temp.” It is similar to the delay of “low oil pressure alarm”.
Delay of
“over speed”
Start when the genset rotate speed is over the upper limited. If the speed of gen-set
comeback in normal state, the delay will be interrupt. If the speed still over limit when
delay ended, It will be a “ over speed” alarm.
Delay of high
oil temp./low
fuel level
Similar to the delay of “ low oil pressure”
Delay of “loss
speed”
If not detect the speed signal in the term of starting or running, the delay of “lose
speed” is begin. If no yet detect the speed signal, when the delay is over, that will
appear the alarm of “lose speed”.
Delay of “low
battery ” Similar to the delay of “low oil pressure alarm”.
Delay
“transform”
When the normal supply comeback normal state after gen-set onload it’s action. The
normal supply must be stable for period of time, until the delay retransform is over that
switch to normal supply on load.
Delay of
“ over
current”
It is similar to the delay of “low oil pressure alarm”.
Delay of
“over voltage” Similar to the delay of “low oil pressure alarm”.
Delay of
“over
frequency” Similar to the delay of “low oil pressure alarm”.
Delay of
“Dec.time” Delay of Dec start when the genset stop,Deceleration relay closed,if the delay ended but still not get the Dec in the right position signal, it will be a “Dec failure” alarm.
Delay of
“warm up”
Happenned during the time when the gen-set starting successfully. To extend the time
of power supply swiching to genset on load. Power supply until the gen-set reach to
optimal state if not emergency, and availably reduce the abrasion.
