1. Introduction

The GCU (Genset Control Unit) configuration software is used to define and create a configuration for a TELYS control unit. It is used to
access the TELYS and to modify its parameters.
A blue dongle (or ‘Sentinel’ key) must be used to set parameters or create a configuration.
The blue dongle, which is designed for the After-Sales service and agents, has a one year term of validity.
The licence can be renewed using a computer file (enabling it to be sent by mail).

Each dongle is registered and protected against modifications to the operating system date and time.
The GCU configuration software and dongle can only be used after having completed appropriate training.

2. Installing the software

- Brackets:
The brackets are selected by clicking in the box before or after the variable. A single click opens a bracket, a second click in the same
box opens a second bracket and so on until 4 brackets have been opened. A fifth click clears the brackets.

- Configuring an equation:
To configure an equation, take the variables in the “Available Inputs” and “Available Outputs” tabs. Click on the component and drag
it to its position in the equation.

Warning! If a variable already exists, it will be replaced by the new saved variable.

To clear a variable, click in the box of the variable. To clear the comparison, click on “Clear”.

- Writing contact equations/logic:

Example of equations:

Note: on the basic board, an input variable takes the name of the input (e.g.: ELH02) whereas an output variable takes the output
function code (e.g.: CST_CFS).

Notes: on an I/O module, an input or output variable takes the input or output name (e.g.: M1E1 for an input and M1S2 for an output).
- Take care when writing the equation and positioning the brackets! (An “OR” sends the following variable to the next line whereas an
“AND” positions it after the previous).

The box in the “Conf.” column can only be activated by the software.
