Conformity declaration

Following described machine complies with the appropriate basic safety and health
requirement of the EC Low Voltage Directive No: 73/23 / EEC and EC
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 89/336 / EEC based on its design and type,
as brought into circulation by us.

!!!CAUTION!!!
Always properly connect grounding terminals!

Adjust set points


All parameters are preadjusted to their typical values. But the set points in the Basic settings
settings group !!must!! be adjusted before the first startup of the gen-set.
!!! WRONG ADJUSTMENT OF BASIC PARAMETERS
CAN DESTROY THE ENGINE!!!

The following instructions are for qualified personnel only.


To avoid personal injury do not perform any action not specified in the User guides for ID-
FLX-Lite!!!

WARNING VERY IMPORTANT!!!


Be aware that the binary outputs can change state during and after software reprogramming.
Before the controller is used again ensure that the proper configuration and setpoint settings
are set in the controller.

Disconnect the Binary outputs Starter and Fuel or press EMERGENCY STOP button to avoid
unexpected automatic start of engine during any work or maintenance on the engine or switchboard.

Note:
ComAp believes that all information provided herein is correct and reliable and reserves the right to

General description
Description of the controller system (with all options)
InteliDrive FLX Lite is a comprehensive controller for single engines with extended support of
electronic engines and extension modules.
InteliDrive FLX Lite controllers are equipped with a powerful graphic display showing icons, symbols
and bar-graphs for intuitive operation, which sets, together with high functionality, new standards in
engine controls.

InteliDrive FLX Lite provides gas engine support without ventilation.


The key feature of InteliDrive FLX Lite is its easy-to-use operation and installation. Predefined
configurations for typical applications are available as well as user-defined configurations for special
applications.

Controller supports WebSupervisor system. This system enables engine drive management and
assets management as well as pure monitoring. Visit www.comap.cz and
http://websupervisor.comap.cz/ for more details read WebSupervisor Reference Guide.

Function description
OFF mode
No start of the engine is possible. Outputs STARTER and FUEL SOLENOID are not energized.
No reaction if START, STOP buttons are pressed.

MAN mode
START - starts the engine.
STOP - stops the engine.

Hint:
The engine can run without load unlimited time.
The controller does not automatically stop the running engine in MAN mode.
The controller does not start the engine when binary input REM START/STOP is closed.

Hint:
Threshold level for D+ input is 80% supply voltage; activation delay is 1s (to override short firings
during cranking for example in cold conditions).

AUT mode

The controller does not respond to START, STOP buttons. Engine start/stop request is given by
binary input REM START/STOP.

Engine speed request is sourced from 3-PI function in AUT mode.

PI loop and Hysteresis comparator functions can be used both for Engine Load Limitation or any other
control function.

Speed request
Engine speed is adjusted automatically by internal PID loops (when active) Regulator setpoints
group.

Alarm management
Sensor fail (FLS)
Sensor fail is detected when measured value is 6% out of selected sensor characteristic. Sensor fail is
indicated by ##### symbol instead measured value.

Warning (WRN)
When warning comes up, only alarm outputs and common warning output are closed.

Possible warnings:
See List of possible events

Shut down (SD)


When the shut-down alarm comes up, ID-Lite opens outputs FUEL SOLENOID, STARTER and
PRESTART to stop the engine immediately. Alarm outputs and common shutdown output are closed.
Active or not reset protection disables start.
Hint:
Engine running only alarms are activated Engine protect: Eng prot del after the engine RPM >
Engine params: Starting RPM during the engine starting procedure.

Possible shut-down alarms:


See List of possible events

Sensor fail detection


Sensor fail Fls is detected when measured value is 6 percent out of range. Controller screen displays
in this case string #### instead measured value.

Direct connection to the PC


ID-FLX-Lite can be connected directly with PC via optional IL-NT RS232 interface.
Use the standard serial cable to connect PC with ID-FLX-Lite.

Hint:
Make sure the grounding system on controller and PC COM port (negative of the PC DC supply) are
identical before the first direct connection. There must not be any voltage between these two points
otherwise the internal reversible fuse in controller burns out. The simple solution is to assure, that the
PC supply 240/20V is ground free (GND terminal is not connected).

LiteEdit. (based on Windows 95 or newer platform)
LiteEdit enables:
read the quantities
adjust all set points
control the engine
configure the controller
select software configuration
modify alarm inputs and outputs
modify password, commands protections
direct, modem or Internet communication
language translator

Language translator
Default archive contains English and Chinesse languages. To change default Chinesse (Unicode) to
any latin language use Remove and Add buttons in LiteEdit Translator-Language window.

Modbus protocol
Select the ID-FLX-Lite serial ports function in the Basic settings: COM1 mode or COM2 mode =
MODEM.
Use LiteEdit: Controller - Generate Cfg image (Modbus registers) command to get registers list.

9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity


Transfer mode RTU
Function 3 (Read Multiply Registers) max length of block is 127 registers
Function 6 (Write Single Register)
Function 16 (Write Multiply Registers) max 16 registers
The response to an incoming message is sent with minimum 4.096 ms delay after message
reception

The complete description of Modbus communication protocol can be found in Modbus Protocol
Reference Guide PI-MBUS-300 and Open Modbus Specification Release 1.0. Both documents are
available from web site at http://www.modicon.com/openmbus/ .

Details of Modbus implementation and Modbus command examples see in


InteliDrive Communication Guide.pdf chapter Modbus protocol description.

Hint:
Download the actual controller Modbus registers list from controller or from (ail) archive - use
