GSC CID 0858 - FMI 04
SMCS Code: 1420-035
Conditions Which Generate This Code:
The close breaker output drives the Circuit Breaker
Permissive Relay (CBPR). The CBPR activates the
Circuit Breaker Close Relay (CBCR) which energizes
the circuit breaker close coil on the circuit breaker,
closing the breaker connecting the generator to
the bus. The inactive level of this output is floating
(may range from approximately 5.2 DCV to battery
positive), and the active level is at battery negative
(“BATT-”).
For Automatic Synchronization, the close breaker
output is pulsed active for a programmed period
of time according to setpoint P 30 2. As long as
synchronization conditions are met, the close breaker
output will be activated repeatedly at one second
intervals until the breaker sensor input indicates the
generator circuit breaker is closed or setpoint P314,
Maximum Synchronization Time is exceeded.
For Perm iss ive synchronization, the Close Breaker
Output will be held active as long as synchronization
conditions are met.
A possible cause of a CID 0858 FMI 04 is a short
to (“BATT-”) of the Close Breaker Output signal. A
CID 0858 FMI 04 is only detected when the GSC+P
is NOT activating the Close Breaker Output. The
GSC+P treats a CID 0858 FMI 04 as an alarm fault.
CID 0858 FMI 04 will cause the GSC+P to stop the
synchronizatio n process until th e diagnostic code is
cleared and corrected.
Te st Step 1. CHECK THE INACTIVE
VOLTAGE LEVEL OF THE CLOSE
BREAKER OUTPUT.
A. Turn the “ECS” switch to STOP.
B. Locate the wire that connects pin 37 on the
GSC+P and terminal SIAR-10 on the System in
Auto Relay.
C. RemovethewirefromterminalSIAR-10onthe
System in Auto Relay only. GSC+P rema in s
connected to the wire.
D. Use a cable probe to measure the voltage at pin
37 on the GSC+P to BAT T-.
Expected Result:
The voltage should measure 5.2 ± 1.0 DCV.
Results:
•
OK –Thevoltagemeasures5.2±1.0DCV.The
voltage is correct. Proceed to test step 2.
•
NOT O K – The voltage is below 5.2 ± 1.0 DCV.
Repair: The GSC+P may have failed. It is u nlike ly
that the GSC+P has failed. Exit this procedure and
perform this entire procedure again. If the problem
remains, replace the GSC+P. Refer to Testing And
Adjusting, “EMCP Electronic Control (Generator
Set)-Replace”.
STOP.
Tes t Step 2. CHECK THE ACTIVE
VOLTAGE LEVEL OF THE CLOSE
BREAKER OUTPUT.
A. ThewirefromterminalSIAR-10ontheSystem
in Auto Relay remains disconnected. GSC+P
remains connected to the wire.
B. Start the engine and run the engine.
C. Perform the Manual Paralleling function.
If necessary, refer to Systems Operation,
“Synchronization Sequence Of Operation”.
D. Manually bring the engine into SYNC with the bus.
The synchroscope pointer will be at the top center
position indicating 0° phase angle.
Expected Result:
When the “ IN SYNC” symbol is tu rned ON, th e close
breaker output vo ltage level should read 0.0 ± 1.0
DCV.
Results:
•
OK – The voltage level is 0.0 ± 1.0 DCV. The
voltage level is correct. The GSC+P is operating
correctly.
Repair: The problem is in the wiring or a
component connected to the close breaker output.
Use the FMI information and th e close breaker
output system schematic to find the exact cause
of the diagnostic code.
STOP.
•
NOT OK – The voltage level is not 0.0 ± 1.0 DCV.
The voltage level is NOT correct.
