Spare Input/Output
Programming O P6
SMCS Code: 4490
OP6 is the option for the programming of the following
parameters: Spare Inputs, Spare Indicators, Spare
Outputs, and Programmable Spare Relay Outputs.
These spare inputs and outputs are provided in order
to satisfy the needs of the customer.
OnEMCPII+Ppanels,spareinput1,spareinput3
and spare input 4 are not available for use by the
customer. Any other fault signals can be connected
to spare input 2. Multiple signals can be separated
using diodes provided that all signals are switched
negative or all signals are switched positive. A
mixture of both types of signals is incorrect.
Spare Inputs
The spare inputs are referred to a s SP1, SP2, SP3
and SP4. The spare inputs are accessed through
the termina l strip. The t erm inal strip is located within
the control panel on the rear wall. The terminations
for the spare inputs that are located on the terminal
striparelistedbelow.
The active input state, the response that is taken and
the time delay for each spare input is programmable.

and the response can be delayed. Setpoints SP01
through SP12 are used for the programming of the
spare inputs. Table 9 describes each of the setpoints.

active input state or a LOW active input state. A
HIGH active input state is +5 DCV to the voltage of
the batteries. A LOW active input state is “BATT-”.
When an input is programmed for a H IGH active input
state, a HIGH signal at the input creates a spare fault
condition. When an input is programmed for a LOW
active input state, a LOW signal at the input creates a
spare fault condition. When an input is programmed
for a LOW active input state, a LOW signal at the
input is considered as a spare fault condition. A
HIGH signal at the input is considered as a normal
condition. Setpoints SP01, SP04, SP07 and SP10
areusedtoprogramtheactiveinputstateofthe
spare inputs. Table 9 describes each of the setpoints.
Note: If an inp ut is left floating, the internal circuitry
of the GSC+P pulls the input high and the GSC+P
responds accordingly.
The GSC+P must be programmed for a response
to an active spare fault. The GSC+P responds by
treating the condition as a fault shutdown or a fault
alarm. Setpoints SP02, SP05, SP08 and SP11 are
used for the programming of the response. Table 9
describes the setpoints below.
Note: Spare faults that are programmed to shutdown
are ignored by the GSC+P when engine speed is
less than crank termination speed.
The GSC+P must be programmed for the amount of
time to delay the response to a spare fault (active
input). After a spare fault occurs, the GSC+P does
not respond. Indicators are not activated and codes
are not shown until the time delay has elapsed. Also,
engine operation is not changed until the time delay
has elapsed. Setpoints SP03, SP06, SP09 and SP12
are used for the programming of the time delay. The
time delay is selectable from 0 to 250 seconds. Table
9 describes the setpoints.
