Adjustable Fields (no alarms):

Click on any of the value fields for Genset RPM, Cylinder Exhaust Temperatures, and Phase A/B/C process

conditions. See picture below. These are for display only. Typical values are loaded initially when project is run.

Genset Operating Parameters:

Click on any of the value fields for Lube Oil Pressure,

Fuel Oil Pressure, Fuel Rack Load, Jacket Water

Temperature, and Bearing Temperature and enter

new value to demonstrate alarm conditions on values

rising or falling. A popup of Trip Points is shown and

are accessed from the Alarm Screen. General location

Alarm screen – Trip Points

The alarm screen is the standard iX alarm template with the exception of the addition of the “Manage Trip

Points” button which will take you to the Trip Points screen. This allows the user to adjust the trip points

rising (High) or falling (Low) for the various analog sensors represented on this particular genset demo.

Along the bottom of the screen are the Interlocks (permissibles) which prohibit the starting of the genset or will

cause the genset to shut down should any of those conditions exist. These are typically discrete switches

(pressure, temperature, etc.). These buttons are to help demonstrate the alarm conditions (acknowledge, clear,

filter, etc.). In addition, the main screen will also show which of these interlocks was activated first (“first out”)

and shut the genset down. This can aid the operator in troubleshooting the genset. The “first out” feature will

show on a later slide.

Alarm Screen - Interlocks

At the bottom of the alarm screen, select as many of the interlocks as desired. You will see that the discrete

button will toggle the respective permissive as in alarm or not in alarm. The corresponding alarm will activate

in the standard alarm table above, as well. These can be acknowledged and cleared (when alarm condition is

off) as is the case with any iX project.

Main Screen - Interlocks

When the interlocks are activated from the Alarm Screen, each of the lamp indicators will change from green

(off) to red (on). In addition, a YELLOW highlight box will illuminate around the particular interlock which

activated first and shuts the genset down (in best practice). As long as the interlock is active, the red lamp will

stay lit. Once ALL alarm conditions are no longer in alarm for the interlocks, the First Out yellow box will

clear. Acknowledging the alarms will not clear the First Out indicator.

Features of the Genset template for X2 Pro 7”

There is also a separate iX template genset file for the 7” HMI’s which has essentially the exact

same information and functionality but which was condensed and rearranged a bit so it would fit

on a 7” HMI and be legible. Of course, the 15” project file can be targeted to any of the X2 HMI

sizes, the buttons and text are very small when targeting the 15” project to a 7” HMI.

Below you will see that the information is exactly the same with the most noticeable change being

the size of the genset info-graphic which is now located at the bottom right of the main screen.

The Alarm and Trend buttons are also in a different place, as well.

are easily controlled and supervised, both

locally and remotely. Our solutions offer

seamless integration with end user systems

by industrial grade networking devices for

remote access, redundant network

communications, and high-power devices

like cameras. With global support and

application teams we are here to help you

minimize any potential downtime. The

perfect solution for operations such as manufacturing, data centres and hospitals.

The overview you need for optimal performance

How are your generators working today?

Our solutions give you diagnostics about

operating time and performance,

maintenance scheduling, just-in-time

servicing and when to replace

consumables. All the data you need for

accounting and predictive maintenance.

We offer several different ways to

remotely access information, as well as

Ethernet network switches, 5G gateways,

Cloud VPN gateways and converters to

integrate other devices for all your critical power requirements.

The right data to the right people for the right decisions

A direct response to power failure is

crucial for so many facilities. Our user-

friendly solutions for gensets give you the

option of on-site and remote supervision

and control to get power up and running

immediately. Our top-class graphics and

smart functions provide intuitive user

experiences. The right people get the right

data so they can make the right decisions

– through standard SMS or email alerts or

detailed dashboard information.
