BE124 TERMINAL DESCRIPTION

IN THIS PAGE ALL DETAILS ABOUT THE CONNECTIONS OF THE BE124 GENSET CONTROLLER
WARNING! By opening the secondary circuit of the C.T.’s you can generate a dangerous voltage. Never disconnect a connection of a CT when the generator is working. You can seriously damage the controller and putting yourself in a serious risk of electrical shock.

JC-1 |
Magnetic Pickup (-) / W |
You can connect a magnetic pickup to detect the speed of the engine. As option, if pickup is not available, you can connect the 'W' terminal of the charger alternator to JC-1. In this case connect terminals JC-2 & JC-3 together by using a short wire. You are required to set the number of teeth in the parameter [PICKUP/W RATIO] (see section11.5.5). |

JC-4 |
GND Compensation (Ground Sense)
|
This is a mandatory connection if the Be124 it is more than 5 meters away from the engine. You are required to connect terminal JC-4 to the body of the engine (a solid connection is required). If the engine is closer, you can connect JC-4 to battery minus. If you do not use an analog sensor (only digital inputs) you can leave this terminal open.
|
JC-5 |
Fuel Level Sensor or Switch
|
This input monitors the Fuel Level sensor. See section 11.6 to set an alarm and table 11.10 for the programmable response curve. Factory programming sets the input in digital mode (you are required to connect a switch). To enable the analog mode, you are required to set at least one alarm (Low/High fuel) and connect the ground sense JC-4.
|
JC-6 |
Temperature Sensor or Switch |
This input monitors the Temperature sensor. See section 11.4.10-11 to set an alarm and table 11.10 for the programmable response curve. Factory programming sets the input to digital mode (you are required to connect a switch). To enable the sensor mode you are required to set one alarm (Low or High temperature) and connect the ground sense JC-4. |
JC-7 |
Oil Pressure Sensor or Switch |
This input monitors the Oil Pressure sensor. See section 11.4.11 to set an alarm and table 11.10 for the programmable response curve. Factory programming sets the input to digital mode (you are required to connect a switch). To enable the sensor mode you are required to set one alarm (Low pressure warning or shutdown) and connect the ground sense JC-4. |
JC-8 |
Configurable Digital Input 3
|
You can connect switches. Each input can be configured via software: see table 11.8 for the available options. You have options for normally closed or normally open contacts. The other side of the switches must be connected to battery minus terminal (or ground, supposing that battery minus is properly grounded). |

WARNING! Do not disconnect this plug when the engine is running. By opening the secondary circuit of the C.T.’s you can generate a dangerous voltage. Never disconnect a connection of a CT when generator is working. You can seriously damage the controller and putting yourself in a serious risk of electrical shock. |

30 |
Plus Battery Vdc supply (DC plant supply) |
An internal Electronic 300mA Thermal Protection is provided. If you have provision to use the Manual Start (terminal 50) we recommend that you provide a proper size of the cable (4.0 up 6.0 sq.mm or 10-14AWG).
|
-BT |
Battery minus supply (DC plant supply) |
Should be connected straight to the battery minus. We recommend that you use a wire with minimum size of about 2.5 sq.mm.
|
15/54 |
Auxiliary Supply Output |
It could be used for ancillary circuits (dashboard). We recommend that you protect this connection using a 5A fuse (fast blow). It provides a voltage only when you turn the key to ‘ON’. |
50 |
Start (30Amps) output |
This should be connected in case you use only the manual mode (no provision of AUTO mode). The simultaneous use of terminal ‘50’ and a ‘Start Pilot Relay’ (connected to JF-7) may severely damage the engine. |
