InteliLiteNT AC03 is a comprehensive AMF-controller for single generating sets operating in stand-by
mode. IL-NT AC03 features extended support of electronic engines and extension modules.
InteliLiteNT 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 Gen-set
controls.
InteliLiteNT automatically starts the Gen-set, closes the Gen-set C.B. when all conditions are met, then
stops the engine on external signal or by pressing push buttons.
InteliLiteNT provides gas engine support without ventilation.
The key feature of InteliLiteNT is its easy-to-use operation and installation. Predefined configurations
for typical applications are available as well as user-defined configurations for special applications.
*Remote display for IL-NT controllers uses standard IL-NT controller with Remote display software.
**Supported from version IL-NT-AMF26-P-2.0.
Hint:
For detailed information about extension modules used with IL-NT controllers, please see the IL-NT-
Accessory Modules manual.
IL-NT RS232 is optional plug-in card to enable InteliLiteNT for RS232 communication. This is required
for computer or Modbus connecting. Card inserts into expansion slot back on the controller.
To insert the module, you must open the cover first (use screwdriver to open) and then insert the
module into slot. Once you have insert it, the module will snap under plastic teeth. It is supposed to be
installed permanently. Should you need to remove it, the safest way is to remove whole back cover
and then remove module manually.
Hint:
The following procedure is analogic also for other communication modules.
Hint:
When you insert RS 232 communication module, the boot jumper is hidden. For that reason we
recommend to use RS 232 communication module with the boot jumper placed on it. See pictures
below:
IL-NT RS232-485 is optional plug-in card to enable InteliLiteNT the RS232 and RS485 communication.
This is required for computer or Modbus connection. Card inserts into expansion slot back on the
controller. The IL-NT RS232-485 is a dual port module with RS232 and RS485 interfaces at
independent COM channels. The RS232 is connected to COM1 and RS485 to COM2.
To insert the module, please follow the instructions for IL-NT RS232 module, procedure is analogous.
You must open the cover first (use screwdriver to open) and then insert the module into slot. Once you
have inserted it, the module will snap under plastic teeth. It is supposed to be installed permanently.
Should you need to remove it, the safest way is to remove whole back cover and than remove module
manually.

IL-NT S-USB is optional plug-in card to enable InteliLiteNT communication via USB port. This is
required for computer or Modbus connecting. Card inserts into expansion slot back on the controller.
To insert the module, please follow the instructions for IL-NT RS232 module, procedure is analogous.
You must open the cover first (use screwdriver to open) and then insert the module into slot. Once you
have inserted it, part of the module will remain over plastic box. It is supposed to be used as a service
tool. When you need to remove it, grab module in cutouts and pull it up manually.
IB-Lite is a plug-in card with Ethernet 10/100 Mbit interface in RJ45 connector. The card is internally
connected to both COM1 and COM2 serial channels and provides an interface for connecting a PC
with LiteEdit or InteliMonitor through ethernet/internet network, for sending active e-mails and for
integration of the controller into a building management (Modbus TCP protocol).
This card also enables to monitor and control the genset over web browser from any location with
internet access using appropriate security measures.
Card inserts into “extension module” slot back on the controller. To insert the module, please follow
the instructions for IL-NT RS232 module, procedure is analogical.
Use Ethernet UTP cable with RJ45 connector for connection of the module into your ethernet network.
The module can be also connected directly to a PC using cross-wired UTP cable.

Please see the “IL-NT-RD Remote display software” chapter for more details.
IL-NT-EFCPM
The IL-NT-EFCPM (Earth Fault Current Protection Module) is designed as extension unit for IL-NT
controller, connected in EXTENSION MODULE slot. This unit checks any leakage of current towards
earth (Earth Fault protection).
Installing IL-NT-EFCPM module is similar to installing RS 232 module. The difference is that module
fits to “extension module” slot and after installing IL-NT-EFCPM you do not put back the small cover.
The plug-in module also provides 1 binary input and 2 binary outputs, which are not configurable.
IL-NT-EFCPM presence and binary input/binary output logical functions assignment can be configured
within LiteEdit PC software. There is no more detection during controller start.
IL-NT-EFCPM2
IL-NT-EFCPM2 is optional plug-in card based originally on IL-NT-EFCPM (see more details in the
chapter above IL-NT-EFCPM), but enhanced regarding its inputs and outputs options. Through this
card controller can accommodate up to 7 binary inputs or outputs. It is possible to easily choose and
configure if particular I/O will be binary input or output in LiteEdit PC software configuration.
To insert the module, you must open the cover first (use screwdriver to open) and then insert the
module into slot. Once you have insert it, the module will snap under plastic teeth. It is supposed to be
installed permanently. Should you need to remove it, the safest way is to remove whole back cover
and than remove module manually.
Installing IL-NT-EFCPM2 module is similar to installing RS 232 module. The difference is that module
fits to “extension module” slot and after installing IL-NT-EFCPM2 you do not put back the small cover.

IG-IOM/PTM module
IG-IOM and IGS-PTM modules are I/O extension modules equipped with 8 binary inputs, 8 binary
outputs, 4 analog inputs and one analog output. The module can be used for AMF25, MRS15, 16, 19
only.
Binary inputs and outputs are configurable the same way like inputs and outputs on iL.
Analog inputs are configurable like iL with the limitation that the binary and tristate mode can
not be used on PTM module.
The protection of analog IOM/PTM inputs is activated by overcrossing the limits, active only
when the engine is running.
IG-IOM analog inputs are resistive (the same parameters like IL-NT) 0 -2,4 k. The module
IOM is designed for especially VDO resistive sensors.
IGS-PTM analog inputs are configurable by jumpers to ranges 0-250, 0-100mV, 0-20mA.
The module can be used especially for Pt100 sensors and current sensors. The module PTM
is not suitable for VDO temperature sensor.
Hint:
- For a description of setting IGS-PTM module with current/voltage sensors please see the Extension
modules manual.
- When module is not configured by LiteEdit SW, controller does not show related values and
setpoints
Hint:
If IGS-PTM is not communiating to a controller, ShutDown is activated.

Power supply
To ensure proper function:
Use min. power supply cable of 1,5mm2
Maximum continuous DC power supply voltage is 36VDC. Maximum allowable power supply voltage
is 39VDC. The InteliLite’s power supply terminals are protected against large pulse power
disturbances. When there is a potential risk of the controller being subjected to conditions outside its
capabilities, an outside protection devise should be used.
Hint:
The InteliLite controller should be grounded properly in order to protect against lighting strikes!!
The maximum allowable current through the controller’s negative terminal is 4A (this is dependent on
binary output load).
For the connections with 12VDC power supply, the InteliLiteNT includes internal capacitors that allow
the controller to continue operation during cranking if the battery voltage dip occurs. If the voltage
before dip is 10V, after 100ms the voltage recovers to 7 V, the controller continues operating. During
this voltage dip the controller screen backlight can turn off and on but the controller keeps operating.
It is possible to further support the controller by connecting the external capacitor and separating
diode or I-LBA module:
The capacitor size depends on required time. It shall be approximately thousands of microFarads.
The capacitor size should be 5 000 microFarad to withstand 150ms voltage dip under following
conditions:
Voltage before dip is 12V, after 150ms the voltage recovers to min. allowed voltage, i.e. 8V
Hint:
Before the battery is discharged the message "Low BackupBatt" appears.
The I-LBA module ensures min. 350ms voltage dip under following conditions:
RS232 and other plug-in module is connected.
Voltage before dip is 12V and after 350ms the voltage recovers to min. allowed voltage 5V.
The I-LBA enables controller operation from 5VDC (for 10 to 30 sec).
The wiring resistance from battery should be up to 0,1 Ohm for I-LBA proper function.
Hint:
I-LBA may not eliminate voltage drop when used with low temperature (-40°C) version of controller
and display heating element is on (below 5°C). Current drain of heating element exhausts LBA
capacitors very fast .
Hint
Do not connect binary outputs directly to DC relays without protection diodes, even if they are not
connected directly to controller outputs.
Grounding
To ensure proper function:
Use as short as possible cable to the grounding point on the switchboard
Use cable min. 2,5mm2
The “-“ terminal of the battery has to be properly grounded
Magnetic pick-up
To ensure proper function:
Use a shielded cable

Hint:
In some cases the controller will measure a RPM value even though the gen-set is not running:
RPM is measured from the generator voltage (Gear Teeth = 0)
IL-NT is measuring some voltage value on input terminals due to open fusing.
If RPM > 0 the controller will be put into a Not ready state and the engine will not be allowed to start.
Current measurement
To ensure proper function
Use cables of 2,5mm2
Use transformers to 5A
Technical characteristics
- Input current range up to 8,32 mA (IL-NT-EFCPM)
- Input current range up to 10 mA (IL-NT-EFCPM2)
- Measurement range from 0,03 to 5A
- Operating frequency 50 or 60 Hz
- Tripping current software programmable from 0,03 to 5 A or DISABLED
- Tripping delay software programmable from 0,03 to 5 seconds
- Included two binary outputs and one binary input (in case of IL-NT-EFCPM)
- Included seven binary inputs or seven binary outputs (in case of IL-NT-EFCPM2)
For more technical details see IL-NT-EFCPM interface and IL-NT-EFCPM2 interface parameters.
Opearting principle
The IL-NT-EFCPM uses toroidal transformer connected to the earth wire (Figure 2). When the
measured current exceeds the set value, this indicates that part of the current is dispersed to earth
and after the set Earth Fault Del then Earth Fault Sd protection, AL EARTH FAULT and BREAKER
TRIP output are activated. Earth Fault protection is not active when MCB is closed and also when EF
Protection: DISABLED.
For manual protection simulation can be used EF Prot Test or Earth Fault Protection Test function.

Configuration
Each analog input can be configured by LiteEdit software following way.
Each Analog input has separate set points for two level alarm setting. Analog input alarm levels and
delay adjust in Extension I/O and Engine Protect group.

SENSOR
AI3
AI2 – three state input
AI3 – analog resistive input
Analog inputs are designed for resistive sensors with resistance in range of 0 to 2,4k.
To ensure a proper function use shielded cables, especially for length over >3m.
As binary input
Open, close state are detected, threshold level is 750 .
Hint:
Protections on binary and three state inputs are following:
IL-NT: AI1 Shutdown IG-IOM: AI1 Shutdown
AI2 Shutdown AI2 Shutdown
AI3 Warning AI3 Shutdown
AI4 Shutdown
Alarm Properties: Selection between different direction of protection – Under Limit, Over Limit or
combination with Fail sensor.
“Engine running only” – check this setting if you wish to active protection on analog input only while
engine is running, not, when it stops.
Set to: Over Limit
When you choose the predefined or user curve the Sensor Name, Dim and Resolution are setted
automaticly according to curve, user modification is possible.
Dim: Name of measured unit (Bar, °C, %, …), up to 4 letters can be used.
When Analog input configuration is finished set the setpoints AI1 Wrn, AI1 Sd, AI1 Del in Engine
Protect group.
Each Analog input has separate triplet of setpoints: Wrn level, Sd level, AI del. Names of these
setpoints are fix defined
Number of decimal points of Wrn level and Sd level is the same as the configured number of decimal
points of measured value.

Connection rules
CAN bus line must be connected in series, from one unit to the next (no star, no cable stubs, no
branches) both ends must by the 120-ohm (internal or external) resistor terminated. Maximal CAN bus
length is up to 200 meters.
IL-NT contains internal fix 120-ohm resistor and must be located on the CAN bus end.
New IG-IOM and IGS-PTM units contain internal jumper removable 120-ohm resistor (in older IOM
types are fix resistors). To be sure check resistor presence by ohmmeter. Unit with internal resistor
connect to the end of CAN line.
Following connections are supported (IOM, PTM, ECU order is not important).
IL- NT – IG-IOM
IL- NT – IGS-PTM
IL- NT – IGL-RA15
IL- NT – IG-IOM – IGL-RA15
IL- NT – IGS-PTM – IGL-RA15
It is possible to connect only one IG-IOM or IGS-PTM and one IGL-RA15 to IL-NT.
Hint:
Any Binary input or output can be configured to any IL-NT controller terminal or changed to different
function by LiteEdit software. There is fix 1 sec delay when any binary input is configured as
protection.
Binary input has no function. Use this configuration when Binary input is not connected.
Alarm
There is a list of following (prearranged) logical binary inputs under Control option.
GCB Feedback
Use this input for indication, whether the generator circuit breaker is open or closed.
If the feedback is not used, connect this input to the output GCB CLOSE/OPEN
MCB Feedback
This input indicates whether MCB is closed or opened.
Rem Start/Stop
External request for engine run. AUT mode only.
Hint:
If the binary input Rem Start/Stop is active and mains failure occures, the MCB breaker opens, and
after FwRet Brk delay the GCB breaker is closed. Once the mains is OK, the RetTransf delay elaspes
and the GCB breaker is opened. Then after FwRet Brk delay is MCB breaker closed. Gen-set remains
running as long as Rem Start/Stop is active.
Emergency Stop
If the input is opened, shut down is immediately activated. Input is inverted (normally closed) in default
configuration.
Hint:
In case of controller hardware or software fail, safe stop of the engine doesn’t have to be ensured. To
back-up the Emergency Stop function it is recommended to connect separate circuit for disconnection
of Fuel Solenoid and Starter signals.
Sd Override
If the input is closed all alarms are disabled except the binary input EMERGENCY STOP and "engine
overspeed protection".
Hint:
Warning Sd Override is indicated in the AlarmList if Sd Override mode is active to inform the operator
that the engine is not protected.
Fr Sd Override
If the input is closed Engine Temp (AI2) Sd, High Eng Temp (BI2), Oil Pressure (AI1) Sd and Oil
Pressure (BI1) alarms are disabled. When AI1 or AI2 Wrn level is reached FrOvrrdNeeded output is
activated to inform that Fr Sd Override might be needed.
Hint:
Warning Fr Sd Override is indicated in the AlarmList if Fr Sd Override mode is active to inform the
operator that the engine is not protected against high engine temperature or low oil pressure.
Access Lock
If the input is closed, no setpoints can be adjusted from controller front panel and gen-set mode (OFF-
MAN-AUT-TEST) cannot be changed.
Hint:
Access Lock does not protect setpoints and mode changing from LiteEdit. To avoid unqualified
changes the selected setpoints can be password protected.
Also the button Fault reset is not blocked at all and buttons Start and Stop in MAN mode are not
blocked.
Remote OFF
If closed, iL is switched to OFF mode (there are four modes OFF-MAN-AUT-TEST). When opens
controller is switched back to previous mode.
Hint:
This binary input should be connected to schedule timer switch, to avoid start of engine.
Remote MAN
If the input is active, MAN mode is forced to the controller independently on the position of the MODE
selector.
Remote AUT
If the input is active, AUTO mode is forced to the controller independently on the position of the MODE
selector. If another of „remote“ inputs is active, then the REMOTE AUT input has the lowest priority.
Remote TEST
If closed, IL-NT is switched to TEST mode (there are four modes OFF-MAN-AUT-TEST). When opens
controller is switched back to previous mode.
RemControlLock
If the input is active, setpoints writing or command sending from the external terminal is disabled.
EF Prot Test
If the binary input is activated (edge 0 -> 1 on the binary input is detected) then EF Prot Test is
executed. This function is the same as the one which can be executed using EF Prot Test command
in Man Operations group or using controller buttons combination. For more details about these options
see Man Operations: EF Prot Test and Earth Fault Protection Test description.
Hint:
Any time binary input EF PROT TEST is activated “Wrn EFProtTest” message appears on controller
display to inform operator that the protection was activated manualy and also that the binary input EF
PROT TEST remains in active position. The message is active whole time the binary input is kept in
active position even if Fault Reset acknowledging the Earth Fault Sd protection is pressed. Wrn
EFProtTest message has only informative character and it is not recorded in the controller history.
Detection of "running" engine and subsequent alarm message "Sd Stop Fail" is blocked.
The controller shows “EmergMan” state and the engine can not be started.
Generator current and power measurement is active in this mode, regardless of the actual state of the
engine.
After the input is open again, the controller recovers to previous state and behaves according to the
actual situation .
Function is active in any controller mode.
Start Button
Binary input has the same function as START BUTTON on the InteliLite front panel. It is active in MAN
mode only.
Stop Button
Binary input has the same function as STOP BUTTON on the InteliLite front panel. It is active in MAN
Mode only.
Hint:
Changed function of Stop Button. After the first pressing from running state, there is a standard delay
and controller change state to cooling. After holding the button down for 2 seconds controller goes to
stop state. The same holds true for BI “Stop Button”.
FaultResButton
Binary input has the same function as FAULT RESET button on the InteliLite front panel.
HornResButton
This binary input can be used for horn resetting. When Horn binary output is active it can be
deactivated by activating HornResButton input.
GCB Button
Binary input has the same function as GCB button on the InteliLite front panel. It is active in MAN
mode only.
MCB Button
Binary input has the same function as MCB button on the InteliLite front panel. It is active in MAN
mode only.
MainsFailBlock
If the input is closed, the automatic start of the gen-set at Mains failure is blocked. In case of running
gen-set the GCB is opened, gen-set goes to Cooling procedure and stops.
The input simulates healthy Mains.
Lang Selection
Not configured
Language selection is done only through the controller display. Pressing ENTER and PAGE buttons
concurrently and then only PAGE button separately.
Hint:
To secure proper functionality of this function Engine Params: Prestart Time has to be set for at least
1 second (Prestart Time >= 1) otherwise there might be not enough time to block the start sequence.
Hint:
There is an analogical function implemented in Deutz EMR2 (ECU), where the information about
preheating is not shared through binary input but through CAN bus and J1939 protocol. The Deutz
EMR2 Preheating function is supported in the controller only in case EMR2Preheating setpoint is set
to ENABLED and Deutz EMR2 ECU is configured.
AltCfgSwitch A
If the input is closed and setpoint Alternate Cfg: Config Switch is set to BinSelect, the combination of
AltCfgSwitch inputs defines what Alternate Cfg group (of gen-set nominal values) is active.
AltCfgSwitch B
If the input is closed and setpoint Alternate Cfg: Config Switch is set to BinSelect, the combination of
AltCfgSwitch inputs defines what Alternate Cfg group (of gen-set nominal values) is active.
AltCfgSwitch A 0 1 0 1
AltCfgSwitch B 0 0 1 1
Chosen Configuration group Basic Settings* Configuration1 Configuration2 Configuration3
*In case of 0,0 combination values are not transfered between Basic Settings and Alternate Cfg groups.
For more details about Alternate Configuration see Alternate Cfg group setpoints description.
When the input is active it is not possible to change Nominal Freq and Nominal RPM parameters
values, neither from LiteEdit nor from controller display.
When the input is opened both parameters are switched back to their previous values (Nom Freq A
and Nominal RPM A) and it is again possible to change their values from LiteEdit and/or from
controller display.
Hint:
The most common example will be switching from 50 to 60Hz and 1500 to 1800 RPM.
Hint:
The description of binary outputs of a controller relates also to IOM/PTM modules.
Starter
The closed relay energizes the starter motor.
The relay opens if:
Battery B
This output should be used in case that two batteries for starting are used. Battery B output switches
between 2 alternative sources of power battery A and battery B. Battery B output is opened for the first
cranking cycle which is designated for Battery A and closes for the second cranking cycle which is
designated for Battery B (in case that 2 batteries for cranking are used).
Fuel Solenoid
Closed output opens the fuel solenoid and enables the engine start.
The output opens if:
Hint:
The engine can be started anytime, if all symptoms say the engine is steady regardless of the fact the
Stop Solenoid can still be active (in that case it is deactivated before cranking).
Stop Pulse
The output is active for 1 second after Stop Solenoid output activation. This signal is sent to ECU in
case of engine stop request.
Ignition
The output closes after reaching value of crank RPM, fixed 30RPM. Opens after stopping of the
engine or in pause during repeated start.
Prestart
The output closes prior to the engine start (Prestart) and opens when Starting RPM speed is reached.
During Crank Attempts the output is closed too.
The output could be used for pre-glow, pre-heat or prelubrication.
Hint:
For more information see picture describing Glow Plugs binary output.
Cooling Pump
The output closes when gen-set starts and opens after stop of the engine.
Idle/Nominal
The output IDLE/NOMINAL closes after the timer Idle Time elapses. The Idle Time counter starts to
countdown when Starting RPM reached. The Underspeed protection is not evaluated during fixed 5
seconds period after reaching Starting RPM. A Start Fail protection occurs if the RPM drop below
2RPM during idle.
Hint:
Connect Binary output Idle/Nominal to speed governor to switch the speed: opened = IDLE,
closed=NOMINAL. If the IDLE contact is not supported on the governor, set the Idle Time
nevertheless to minimum 5s to avoid Underspeed possibly caused by instability of the engine short
after start.
Air Valves
Closes together with Prestart. Opens after the engine is stopped.
Stopped engine conditions: RPM = 0, Engine Params: Starting Oil P, D+ (when enabled).
Alarm
The output closes if :
any alarm comes up or
the gen-set malfunctions
The output opens if
FAULT RESET is pressed
The output closes again if a new fault comes up.
Emergency Stop
The output closes if:
Emergency Stop is activated
The output opens if:

Basic Settings
Gen-set Name
User defined name, used for InteliLite identification at remote phone or mobile connection.
Gen-set Name is max 14 characters long and have to be entered using LiteEdit software.
CT Ratio [/5A]
Gen-set phases current transformers ratio.
Step: 1A
Range: 1 – 5000 A / 5A
Hint:
For firmware IL-NT-Pramac-1.0, 1.1, 1.2 and IL-NT-AMF26P-1.0:
For CT Ratio <= 250 the values of power and current are displayed in a controller with one decimal.
For CT Ratio > 250 the values of power and current are displayed in a controller with integral
numbers. If you change CT Ratio in LiteEdit or directly in the controller, decimal numbers will not be
changed immediately. The change will be executed only by reconfiguring in LiteEdit. The statistics of
power will be recounted at this time with regards to decimal numbers of power.
WARNING! When you change the firmware, statistics can be invalid!
WARNING! Change of CT ratio over value 250 without reconfiguring in LiteEdit can cause
overflow of current measurement and improper function of controller!
EF CT Ratio [/1A]
Gen-set earth fault current transformer ratio.
Step: 1A
Range: 1 – 2000 A / 1A
PT Ratio [/1]
Gen-set potential transformers ratio.
Step: 0,1 V / V
Range: 0,1 – 500,0 V / V
Hint:
There is a given ratio between NomVolts Ph-N and NomVolts Ph-Ph, based on ConnectionType
setting. Once you change either NomVolts Ph-N or NomVolts Ph-Ph value, the other value is
automatically recalculated. When you change ConnectionType setpoint new NomVolts Ph-Ph value is
calculated based on NomVolts Ph-N which stays still during switchover between different connection
types.
Hint:
Generator frequency can be used only when generator voltage (min 5V) is present before reaching of
the firing speed (Starting RPM) after start.
Hint:
Controller Mode change can be separately password protected.
Hint:
When opening connection to the controller it's address has to correspond with the setting in PC tool.
From LiteEdit it is only possible to connect to controllers with address 1.
Hint:
For details on communication speed and other technical parameters please see chapter Technical
Data.
For detail description see chapter Modbus protocol. Since IL-NT 1.3 controller support register

ModemIniString
If your modem needs some additional initialization AT commands (i.e. because of national telephony
network differencies), it can be entered here. Otherwise leave this setpoint blank.
Hint:
For more details about connection types see Voltage measurement and generator connection types.
For more details about current measurement location see Current measurement: CT location.
3CTs:
It means that there are 3 CTs used for current measurement. This is valid in case of 3Ph4Wire or
3Ph3Wire connection type. This setting should be also used in case of Split Phase connection type,
when there are just 2 CTs (as there are just two phases). This setting doesn’t make sense in case of
Mono Phase connection type (Even though you can use this setting in case of Mono Phase, but the
result is the same as for 1CT).
1CT:
When 1CT is used for current measurement.
For more details about CT connection see Current measurement: Number of CTs = 3CTs/1CT .
Engine Params
Starting RPM [%]
“Firing” speed when IL controller stops cranking (starter goes OFF).
Step: 1% of nominal RPM
Range: 5 – 50 %
Hint:
There are three conditions for stop cranking: Starting RPM, Starting Oil P and D+ (when enabled).
Starter goes off when any of these conditions is vaid.
Hint:
Set Prestart time >=1 when using PREHEATING binary input or Preheating within Deutz EMR2 ECU.

Hint:
If the IDLE function not supported on the governor, set the Idle Time nevertheless to minimum 5s to
avoid Underspeed possibly caused by instability of the engine short after start.
Hint:
When generator voltage within Max Stab Time does not reach defined limits (Generator protection
group) , an alarm occurs and the gen-set will shut down
Hint:
Binary output IDLE/NOMINAL must be configured and connected to speed governor. Engine Idle
speed must be adjusted on speed governor
Hint:
Cooling is executed at nominal speed and generator protections are active.
Hint:
Stop of engine is detected when all following conditions are met: RPM <2, Oil pressure < Starting Oil P
Generator voltage < 10 VAC and D+ input isn’t active.
Stop fail is detected when there is difference between those conditions, e.g RPM<2 and Generator
voltage > 10V.
Hint:
Fuel Solenoid - EFuelFPmp signal is used for feeding the fuel in engines that don’t have a manual fuel
pump (Electronic Fuel Feed Pump) when the gen-set is starting-up or when they run out of fuel.
Hint:
The magnetization current is provided independently on this setpoint value.
The D+ charge fail protection becomes active after Engine Params:Idle Time reaches zero.
Preheating ON [°C]
When the actual value of Water Temp (AI 2) is lower or equals to this value then the binary output
PREHEATING is activated.
Step: 1
Range: 0 – Preheating OFF °C
Hint:
Preheating function is switched off when Preheating ON = Preheating OFF.
The two setpoints above are compared to Analog Input 2 (usually used for Water Temp)
For more details about Preheating function see description of PREHEATING binary output
For more information about this function see also PREHEATING binary input description.
Dummy Ld 1 ON [A]
Limit for Dummy Load 1 activation.
Step: 1A
Range: 1 – 10000 A
Dummy Ld 2 ON [A]
Limit for Dummy Load 2 activation.
Step: 1A
Range: 1 – 10000 A
Evaluation of this function is based on L1 current value. There is fixed 15 seconds delay for function
activation after Dummy Load parameter conditions are fulfilled (GCB and/or MCB closing and
switching to Ready To Load state). Once the function is activated (after 15 seconds delay) Dummy
Load ON/OFF limits are evaluated immediately without any delay.
Hint:
Dummy Load function is primarily dedicated to secure healthy gen-set running in case gen-set load is
not sufficient (is too low). There are 2 independent parameters for two independent Dummy Load
levels. Using opposite logic, Dummy Load function can be also used for Load Shedding purpose. It
only depends on Dummy Ld ON and OFF values. When ON value is higher than OFF value, then the
function can be used for Load Shedding, when lower then fro Dummy Load. See the logic in pictures
below.
Overspeed [%]
Threshold for over speed protection
Step: 1% of nominal RPM
Range: 100 – 150%
Hint:
The Overspeed protection value is increasing from 115 % to 125% of nominal RPM for the duration
of 5sec (ProtectHoldOff delay). ProtectHoldOff delay takes place during the start of the gen-set when
some engine protections have to be blocked. This delay starts after reaching 25% of nominal RPM. It
holds true if the value GeerTeeth = 0.

Maintenance [h]
Counts down when engine running. If reaches zero, an alarm appears. When the value 10000 is set,
than the Maintenance function is disabled and counter does not count. Counter value disappears in
controllers statictics.
Step: 1h
Range: 0 –10000h
Gener Protect
Hint:
All electric protections when activated result in shutdown.
GShortCrct Sd [%]
Shutdown occurs when generator current reaches GShortCrct Sd limit.
Step: 1 % of Nominal current
Range: 100 - 500 %
IDMT is “very inverse” generator over current protection. Reaction time is not constant but depends on
generator over current level according following formula.
Hint:
Reaction time is limited up to 900 sec = 15 minutes. IDMT protection is not active for Reaction time
values longer than 15 minutes.
EXAMPLE of Reaction time for different over current levels. Values in column 200% are IDMT Curr

Hint:
Over- and undervoltage protection is evaluated according to Basic Settings: ConnectionType setting.
3Ph4Wire and 3Ph3Wire connections are evaluated according to Ph-Ph nominal voltage (NomVolts
Ph-Ph) and Split Phase and Mono Phase connections are evaluated according to Ph-N nominal
voltage (NomVolts Ph-N).
Hint:
Voltage unbalance protection is evaluated the same way as overvoltage (Gen >V Sd) and
undervoltage (Gen <V BOC) protections described above.
AMF Settings
RetFromIsland [MANUAL / AUTO]
MANUAL: After closing GCB, IL goes to MAN Mode automatically.
AUTO: No automatic switching to MAN Mode.
MainsReturnDel [s]
Delay after the mains return to the GCB opening.
Step: 1s
Range: 1 – 3600 s
Hint:
In case the LBI:MainsFailBlock is activated in AUT mode in Island Operation (IslOper) then AMF
Settings: MFB MReturnDel parameter is used instead of AMF Settings: MainsReturnDel parameter
for transition to Mains Operation (MainsOper).
In case both events (MainsFailBlock and Mains Return) appears concurrently (closely one after
another) and their delays could overlap each other then the manual control (BI: MainsFailBlock) has
higher priority comparing the real Mains return as shown in the following diagram.

Configuration Protection
Under Protection is activated only when measured value is under measured level.
Over Protection is activated only when measured value is over measured level.
Under+fls Level 2 protection is activated by Sensor Fail as well.
Over+fls Level 2 protection is activated by Sensor Fail as well.
To enable this function, you should select with setpoints Yel Alarm Msg and Red Alarm Msg, which
levels of alarms shall be announced (red/yellow/both) and also enter valid GSM phone number and/or
e-mail address to the setpoints TelNo/Addr Ch1 and TelNo/Addr Ch2. It is possible to put either a
GSM number or e-mail to both setpoints.
There is also possibility to control the unit (e.g. read and/or write setpoints, send commands, etc.)
using sms messages. For more details about this function see SMS Message Control and
SMS/Email: Report Period setpoint description.
NOTE:
An internet module must be available for sending of e-mails. Similarly, a GSM modem is necessary for
sending of SMS.
Hint:
There are 5 attempts for any active call (SMS/E-Mail). Timeout for connection is 90 sec and after 120
sec controller starts the next attempt. During the time the IL-NT is trying to send an active call type,
incoming calls are blocked.
Hint
The target address (GSM phone number or e-mail address) must be set correctly to the setpoint(s)
TelNo/Addr Ch1 resp. TelNo/Addr Ch2.
Hint
The target address (GSM phone number or e-mail address) must be set correctly to the setpoint(s)
TelNo/Addr Ch1 resp. TelNo/Addr Ch2.
TelNo/Addr Ch1, 2
Enter either a valid GSM phone number or e-mail address to this setpoint, where the alarm messages
shall be sent. Type of active call is considered from the value of this parameter. If it consist „@“ it is
supposed to be e-mail address and active e-mail is sent. If the value is number, without „@“, it is
supposed to be the telephone number and active SMS is sent.
Hint:
For GSM numbers use either national format (i.e. like number you will dial if you want to make a local
call) or full international format with "+" character followed by international prefix in the begin.
Phone numbers can be modified from controller display, but in case of email address this
setpoint can be modified from PC only!
For more details about this function see SMS Message Control.
EF Prot Test
This command is normally in OFF state. When you set this command to ON state Earth Fault
protection test is performed and command state is automatically returned to OFF state.
This test can be performed anytime (even in OFF mode), when Emergency Man mode is not active.
When the test is performed Earth Fault Sd protection, BREAKER TRIP output and Wrn EF Prot Test
alarm message are activated and stay active unless FAULT RESET is pressed.
Hint:
When Sd Override is active and EF Prot Test is set to ON, Sd Earth Fault is recorded into the history
file and appears on controller display, but gen-set remains running and Breaker Trip output is NOT
activated. If you deactivate Sd Override before Sd Earth Fault is acknowledged by pressing FAULT
RESET, then gen-set is immediately stopped and Breaker Trip output is activated.
EF Prot Test command may be also executed using controller buttons combination (see more in
chapter Earth Fault Protection Test) or by binary input EF PROT TEST.
RestoreDefault
This command works the same way as the previous one. Normally is in OFF state. When you want to
execute this command you have to change its value from OFF state either to SET1 or to SET2. There
are two sets of default parameters. Once you choose one SET controller setpoints are restored to
respective default setting and command state is automatically returned to OFF state.
Most of the setpoints are restored to default, but not all of them. There are following exceptions.
Hint:
These are the same setpoints which are not overwritten during configuration download.
In this particular cases it doesn’t make sense to change the setpoints because of following reasons.
GenSet name should be unique name, ControllerMode should stay the same to avoid any unwanted
action, communication setting is usually changed according to the particular application and returning
to the default setting would mostly cause lost of communication, time and date are usually up-to-date
and it would set it out-of-date, Maintenance setpoint shouldn’t be obviously changed at all and even if
it should be judged seriously and changed separately and not as a part of restore to default command.
MANUAL: Nominal values of the gen-set are defined by setpoints in Basic Settings group
AutDetect: Nominal values of the gen-set are chosen from Alternate Cfg group during gen-set
starting procedure. Autodetection process is described below.
BinSelect: Nominal values of the gen-set are chosen based on AltCfgSwitch binary inputs
combination.
There are three groups of nominal values. The valid nominal values configuration is evaluated during
gen-set starting procedure (just after MinStabTO elapses) in case Config Switch parameter is set to
AutDetect.
1) First detection of connection type is made. There are 3 possible groups: a) Mono Ph, b) Split Ph or
c) 3Ph4Wire / 3Ph3Wire. Every phase with Gen V < 40V is taken as phase without voltage. When
there is no suitable connection type found (within 3 Alternate Cfg groups) then autodetection fail is
announced (GAutDtcFail / MAutDetecFail). In case suitable Connection Type is found autodetection
process proceeds to the 2nd step.
2) Detection of nominal voltage. When the measured voltage is within +/- 10V of the nominal voltage
of respective group (where suitable Connection Type was found) then this configuration group is
considered as the valid configuration group and all the nominal values from this group are taken as
valid nominal values (and these values are then copied to the Basic Settings group). When there is
more groups which fit to this criteria then the one with the lowest ordinal number is chosen.
Autodetection procedure:
A) Detection is first made on Mains side. Once the detection is finished either one configuration is
chosen (then one of the following messages AlterCfg 1 Act, AlterCfg 2 Act or AlterCfg 3 Act is written
to the history and CONFIGURATION 1, 2 or 3 output is activated) or there is a Mains autodetection fail
(MAutDetecFail).
B) Then in case MAN mode is active the controller is waiting for manual request for the gen-set start
and in the meantime is periodically checking Mains status. In case the controller is in AUT mode gen-
set start request is automatically issued.
C) Once the gen-set is started (regardless if in MAN or AUT mode) autodetection on gen-set side is
started. Autodetection on gen-set side is made during every gen-set start regardless previous
(successful or unsuccessful) autodection made on Mains side.
D) Once the detection on gen-set side is finished either one configuration is chosen (AlterCfg 1 Act,
AlterCfg 2 Act or AlterCfg 3 Act written to the history and Configuration 1, 2 or 3 output is activated) or
there is a gen-set autodetection fail (Sd GAutDtcFail) and gen-set is shuted down.
Once the autodetection procedure is successfully finished values from chosen configuration group in
Alternate Cfg group are written to the Basic Settings group. The nominal values can be changed then
either from Alternate Cfg group (within the chosen group) or from Basic Settings group. When you
change the values either in Alternate Cfg chosen group or in Basic Settings the setpoints’ values are
automatically changed in both groups simultaneously (till new gen-set start request when new
evaluation is started).
Once the autodection is successful on gen-set side the chosen configuration is taken as valid
configuration for the Mains side till next gen-set start (when new evaluation is performed) or till the
controller is switched off. In case you need to make new autodetection on Mains side you have to
switch off and switch on the controller.

Hint:
There is a given ratio between NomVolts Ph-N and NomVolts Ph-Ph, based on ConnectionType
setting. Once you change either NomVolts Ph-N or NomVolts Ph-Ph value, the other value is
automatically recalculated. When you change ConnectionType setpoint new NomVolts Ph-Ph value is
calculated based on NomVolts Ph-N which stays still during switchover between different connection
types.
Hint:
For more details about connection types see Voltage measurement and generator connection types.
Presence of the ECU on the CAN bus/RS232 is configured via LiteEdit like other peripheries (IG-IOM,
IGL-RA15). Pressing the button in Configuration window of LiteEdit opens ECU dialog window
where the appropriate engine/ECU type should be selected. The actual list of ECU types is available
on ComAp website in "ECU list - x.y.iwe" package. Download this package and import it into LiteEdit in
the same way as standard firmware IWE package.
More information about ECU list packages, configuration and wiring recommendations can be found in
Comap Electronic Engines Support manual.
If the connected engine is Cummins with GCS engine control unit communicating via Modbus it is
necessary to set the setpoint Basic settings:COM1 Mode = ECU LINK or COM2 Mode = ECU LINK.
The output ECU PowerRelay closes at the beginning of prestart and opens if the engine shall be
stopped. It can be used to switch the ECU on and off. If the output is configured but not active the
ECU communication alarm is blocked.
The engine is started via standard contact output or via CAN bus depending on ECU capabilities.
When “ECU LINK”-Modbus option is selected, following values are read from Modbus Register Data
(for QSX15,QSK45, QSK60):
Engine Speed (Register Address:30001)
Oil Pressure (Register Address:30003)
Coolant Temperature (Register Address:30002)
Engine Running Time (Register Address:30008-30009)
Fuel Consumption Rate (Register Address:30018)
Intake Manifold Absolute Pressure (Register Address:30530 (QSK45, QSK60 only))
Intake Manifold Temperature (Register Address:30531 (QSK45, QSK60 only))
Hint:
Values read from ECU are not written to history besides the fault codes.
Complete list of text diagnostic messages for each ECU can be found in Comap Electronic Engines
Support manual.
Hint:
InteliLite controller doesn’t support J1587 diagnostic line on Volvo engines. This can cause in some
cases a J1939 alarm message FC:000608 due to missing J1587 bus. Contact your Volvo distributor to
update ECU firmware.
For Scania engines the fault codes are displayed in hexadecimal format.

To correct measuring error of each analog input (pressure, temperature, level) calibrating constants
within 10 % of measure range should be set. Two calibrating constants are set in physical units - bar,
o
C, % .Calibration is made by adding the value of setpoint AIxCalibration directly to the calculated
value at analog input.
Hint:
The calibration must be done at the operational point of the analog input (e.g. 80°C, 4,0Bar etc..)
There are 20 resistive curves available. The following table provides information on
minimum/maximum values of respective sensors. Actual values especially of temperature curves may
differ. Meaning is to prolong curve to the lower temperature values, so the cold engine will not raise
alarm fail sensor.
Hint:
When measured value is 6% out of range the Sensor Fail FLS is detected. You can find detailed
information on sensores in LiteEdit Reference Guide.
No start of the gen-set is possible. Outputs STARTER, GCB CLOSE/OPEN and FUEL SOLENOID are
not energized.
No reaction if buttons START,STOP,GCB ON/OFF, MCB ON/OFF are pressed.
When power-cut comes, MCB CLOSE/OPEN opens. After mains returns, MCB CLOSE/OPEN closes
with MCB close del.
MAN Mode
MCB ON/OFF
The controller closes MCB to dead bus.
The controller opens MCB when closed.
STOP stops the gen-set.
Hint:
The engine can run without load unlimited time.
The controller does not automatically stop the running gen-set in MAN Mode.
The controller does not start the gen-set when power cut comes.
!! The controller provides interlock between GCB and MCB, it means it is never possible to
close both CB together
1
if all generator parameters OK and Min Stab Time elapsed, indicates that GCB is possible to close.
In AUTO Mode closes in this moment GCB automatically.
2
If GCB output used GCB opens automatically
3
The start-up sequence can be interrupted in any time by comming stop request
4
Fuel solenoid is switched on with time advance of 1s fixed before starter motor is switched on.
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).
The controller does not respond to buttons START, STOP, MCB ON/OFF, GCB ON/OFF. Engine
start/stop request is evaluated form Mains failure/return.
TEST mode
Hint:
The controller does not respond to GCB ON/OFF , STOP, START
The load is automatically transferred back to the mains when any gen-set shut down protection
activates.
Test on load
When binary input REM TEST ONLD is closed, the controller automatically (if TEST mode selected)
transfers load from the mains to the gen-set. Setpoint AutoMainsFail: ReturnFromTEST must be set to
MANUAL.
Hint:
The controller does not respond to GCB ON/OFF , MCB ON/OFF , STOP, START
Mains fail is detected as Mains <V, Mains >V, Mains V Unbal, Mains <Freq, Mains >Freq. After
detection MCB is opened.
Hint:
When MCB feedback drop-out and measured mains electrical limits (voltage, frequency) are still in
limits, the controller switches MCB ON again.

Sensor Fail is detected when measured value is 6% out of selected sensor characteristic, or data from
ECU is missing. 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
When the BOC alarm comes up, InteliLite opens first output GCB CLOSE/OPEN (as well as binary
output BREAKER TRIP is activated) to unload the gen-set and then after cooling time it also stops the
gen-set. Alarm outputs and common shutdown output are activated. Active or not acknowledged
protection disables gen-set start.
When the shut-down alarm comes up, InteliLite opens outputs GCB CLOSE/OPEN, 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.
Mains failure detection depends on Auto mains failure setpoints (levels and delays) adjusting. When
the mains failure comes up, mains circuit breaker is opened.
Hint:
Mains failure is not written to alarm list!

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

General description
Remote display software works as “remote display and control” for the master InteliLite-NT or
InteliDrive Lite controller. Genset/Engines can be controlled from remote display as well as from
master controller. All remote display screens (Measure, Setpoints and History) displays the same data
like master controller. Front panel buttons on both controllers work the same way. All remote display
LED’s shows the same state as corresponding LED’s on master controller.
Warning !
It is highly recommended to use the same type and model of controller for master and remote
display. Only in such case is assured the proper function of all buttons, LED diods and display.
Another combinations of HW types and models from Master controller and remote display are
not supported nor tested!
However when there is IL-NT-RD firmware installed in the controller the procedure to install back the
original standard firmware is following:
Open any type of online connection.
DDE server will try to open the connection, but it will fail and write red error message in the
status bar.
In this moment go to CONTROLLER -> PROGRAMMING AND CLONING -> PROGRAMMING and select
proper! firmware you want program to the controller. Choosing the wrong type of firmware
may result in non-functional controller.
CAUTION!
Check the statistic value "Engine hours" after firmware upgrade. Readjust the value if necessary.
IL-NT-RD Wiring
IL-NT-RD can be connected to InteliLite-NT or InteliDrive Lite controller via RS232 or RS485
communication line. It is possible to connect only up to two remote displays to one master controller, if
they are using different communication COMs. It is not supported to connect two or more remote
displays to one communication line, eg. RS485. It is possible to monitor only one master controller
from one remote display at the time.
Connection process
Remote display after power on automaticaly starts to search for any master controller connected. It
starts to search on COM1 from master controllers address 1 to 32 and later on COM2 from address 1
to 32. Remote display tries two communication speeds 38400 bps and 56000bps.
During this process is displayed text “Detecting…” on screen and progress bar below counts from 0 to
100%. This process takes approx. 10-15 seconds. Then is 5 seconds pause and process continues
again until compatible master controller is found.
Not supported types of controllers, not supported application, or controllers that are not properly
comunicating are skipped during the search.
Any connected RS 232 to RS 422/485 converter has to be set to passive DSR signal (when DSR
connected) after switch on.
Function description
Remote display IL-NT-RD works as remote display and control of the master InteliLite-NT or InteliDrive
Lite controller. It is supposed and highly recommended that both, remote display and master are using
the same HW type and model of controller. Another types and models of master and remote display
are not supported nor tested. All remote display’s LEDs shows the same state as corresponding LEDs
on master controller. Front panel buttons on both controllers work in the same way. Genset/Engine
can be controlled from remote display as well as from master controller. User can switch screens, set
password, change setpoints and view history records.
All IL-NT-RD screens Init, Measure, Setpoints and History display the same data like in the master
controller.
Interruption of the serial line between master device and Remote display has no effect to the master
controller.
If the serial line between master device and remote display is interrupted, or communication cannot be
established, remote display shows it’s Init screen and message “Trying” and all LED’s are off.
Once remote display finds compatible master it shows “Preparing” and downloads configuration table
from master controller.
After the configuration from master is downloaded remote display jump to master controllers Init
screen and all LEDs and blinking.
It is possible to switch to remote displays Init screen to check it’s version and serial number of used
controller and communication status by pressing PAGE button for 3 seconds.
SW compatibility
IL-NT-RD sw. version 1.0 is compatible with masters SW:
Some of the future IL-NT, ID-Lite versions may require upgrade of the IL-NT-RD software.
The internal backup battery should be replaced approx. every 5-7 years. Replace the battery, if the
alarm Low BackupBatt occurs. Follow these instructions:
1. Disconnect all terminals from the controller and remove the controller from the switchboard.
2. Release the rear cover using a flat screwdriver or another suitable tool.
