Information about Volvo Engine TAD734GE

The DU is an computerized instrument panel which shows engine working values on an LCD screen. In the display it is possible to show multiple windows with different information, i. g. Volvo engine rpm, coolant temperature, fuel consumption and fault messages.

At start up, the display performs a self-test. If an constant signal is heard, the system has discovered a malfunction. The display will work but may act in an unexpected way.

The DU is connected between the engine control unit and the CIU or DCU.

Contrast

In the display modes Engine, Trip and Graph, it is possible to adjust the contrast. Press button 5 outside the menu and then + (button 4) or - (button 3) to adjust the contrast.

CIU (Control Interface Unit)

The CIU is a "translator" between the control unit (EMS) and the customer's own control panel. The CIU has two serial communication links, one fast and one slow.

The fast one is a so-called CAN link. All data related to instruments, indication lamps, connectors and potentiometers is controlled by this link.

The slow link manages diagnostic information for flashing codes etc.

Easy Link Instruments

The following Easy Link instruments are available

- Tachometer / hours counter (fault codes are also displayed on the tachometer display when the diagnostic button is pressed)

- Coolant temperature

- Oil pressure

- Oiltemperature

- Batteryvoltage

- Alarm panel

- Turbo pressure



DCU (Display Control Unit)

The pre-heating time is adjusted to suit engine temperature, and may last up to 50 seconds both before and after starting.

The starter motor connection time is maximized to 20 seconds. After that, the starter motor circuit is cut for 80 seconds to protect the starter motor against overheating.

NOTICE! Preheat must be activated when the temperature is below o °C (32°F)

With preheating

1 Press the ON/OFF button (6)

2 Press the SEL button (7) to come to the main menu

3 Navigate to Preheat with the browse button (9). Press the SEL button (7)

4 In the Preheat menu, press the SEL button (7) to select pre-heating; the text "Preheat active please wait" is shown in the display.

5 Wait until the text disappears and then press the START button (2).

How to Read Alarm Codes From SmartGen Genset Controller

Auto Module Control Panel is the configuration for nobody on duty controlling generators. This kind of panel adopts auto module control system, with large LCD display to show the menu, such as SmartGen controller. Features:   1. SmartGen 6110 can receive remote output signal from ATS and realize auto start and stop of generators. 2. SmartGen 6310 can realize all functions of 6110, add RS232 interface which can communicate with PC to realize remote operation.  3. SmartGen 6410 Auto Mains Failure controller, can realize all functions of 6310, furthermore can detect  ATS and control directly. The alarm of diesel generator controller is not the amount of stop alarm, which does not affect the normal operation of diesel generator. When the alarm occurs, the unit will not stop, and when the alarm conditions do not exist, the amount of warning will automatically disappear.  Today Starlight manufacturer mainly shares alarm codes for diesel generato...

How to know and solve faults of genset voltage transformer

 Today Starlight Power shares the common faults for voltage transformer of diesel generator set. Hope it is helpful to you. 1) The insulation between iron chips is damaged. Fault phenomenon: temperature rises during operation. The possible causes of the failure are: poor insulation between iron chips, bad use of environmental conditions or long-term operation under high temperature, which promote the insulation aging between iron chips. (2) Poor contact between grounding plate and iron core. Fault phenomenon: there is discharge sound between iron core and oil tank during operation. Cause of failure: the grounding plate is not inserted tightly, and the mounting screw is not tightened. (3) The iron core is loose. Fault phenomenon: abnormal vibration or noise during operation. The cause of failure: the iron core clamp is not clamped, and the iron chip is loose. (4) Turn to turn short circuit of winding. Fault phenomenon: during operation, the temperature rises, there is ...
