AL Fault Code
Description Troubleshooting
AL13
Generator Total Overcurrent Fault
Total current ri
ses above the P13 1 or P136
setpoints.
Check for a cause of the overcurrent. Check
setpoint P029 a
nd setpoints P128 throug h P137.
AL14 Phase A No Voltage Input Fault
Phase A voltage
not being received at GS C+P
input.
Check for an open circuit on the wire that is
connected to t he GSC+P connector pin 10. Check
for a short on the wire that is connected to the
GSC+P connector pin 10. Refer to the Testing And
Adjusting, “Schematics and Wiring Diagrams”.
AL15
GSC+P Configuration Error
Frequency of generator output voltage do es not
match engine s
peed.
Check setpoints P009 and P033. Setpoint P0 09
represents the number of ring gear teeth. Setpoint
P033 represen
ts the number of generator poles.
Correct the setpoint value, if necessary.
Additional AL Fault Codes (for GSC+P)
AL16
Incorrect Ph
ase Sequence
The generator and the bus have a phase mismatch.
Check for the
cause of the ph ase sequence
mismatch. Check wiring to the bus tran sformer box
(BTB +) and the AC transformer bo x (ATB +).
AL17 Improper gen
erator or bus v oltage
The generator voltage or the bus voltage are either
too low or the voltages do not match.
1. The genera
tor voltage and the bus voltage
must be above 10% of the nameplate voltage in
P028 when setpoint P020 is set to 700. Generator
voltage and
bus voltage must be above 50% of the
nameplate v oltage in P028 wh en setpoint P020 is
set to any other value than 700.
2. Check Set
points P303 and P304 in o r der to
determine whether the generator volta ge and the
bus voltage match within the toleranc e that is
specified.
AL18
Synchronizer Time-Out
[CTE_CURSOR]The GSC +P is una ble t o compl ete
automatic synchronization or dead bus paralleling
within the time allowed in P314.
Check for cause o f synchronization time-out.
Ensure that the engine is responding prope r ly to the
GSC+P Speed Adjust 1 Output signal. Check for
wiring errors. Check setpoints P313 a nd P314 for
proper values. Increase the values, if nece ssary.

Upper Display With AL Fault Code AL3 Showing
AL Fault Codes are shown as “AL1” through “AL15”
on the upper display. The fault codes include specific
engine fau
lt conditions. An example of a specific
engine fault condition is the low engine oil pressure
alarm. An exam p le of a pr otective rela ying function is
the under
frequency fault.
AL fault codes depend on certain setpoints. For
more informa tion on s etpo in ts, refer to the Syste m s
Operation, “Service Mode”. AL fault codes are not
diagnosed by the GSC+P. These codes are not
stored in the fault log. Many of the AL fault codes are
programmable as a fault alarm or as a fault shutdown.
The AL fault codes are accompanied by either the
fault alarm indicator or the fault shutdown indicator on
the GSC+P in order to show the severity of the fault.
