- | ==== 1. Which relay and control | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Various Victron products have functions to automatically signal when to start and stop a generator. Here is advice on when to use which product and method. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | When there is a [[venus-os: | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The next most used option is a BMV-700 Battery Monitor or similar model. It can start the generator on low battery voltage and/or low battery state of charge. See the [[https:// | + | |
- | + | ||
- | The Multis, MultiPlus-IIs, | + | |
- | + | ||
- | | + | |
- | - [[assistants: | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Lastly, its of course also possible to combine above mentioned methods, by wiring the open contacts in parallel to each other, or in series, to the Generator. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | ==== 2. How to wire a a genset with three-wire interface ==== | + | |
- | + | ||
- | All above products and devices have a single relay; that require a generator that starts and keeps running when- and while the relay is closed; and stops again when opened. Or the other way around. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | When having a generator that requires a start pulse and a stop pulse, such as for example Cummins/ | + | |
- | + | ||
- | To start such a genset, the open/close contact needs to be converted into a start and stop pulse. Below solution, using standard available timing relays, does exactly that: when the open/close contact closes it generates the start pulse, and when the open/close contact opens again it generates the stop pulse. | + | |
- | + | ||
- | Note that this solution should only be used on gensets that have their OWN control panel monitoring and automatically stopping on loss of oil pressure and other sensors. In other words: do not wire this directly to the starter motor and fuel solenoid. | + | |

- | ==== Alternative using Assistants === | + | |
- | (provided by Thierry Cortasa) | + | |
- | + | ||
- | hy | + | |
- | + | ||
- | just for information, | + | |
- | i use k1 and k2 relais and relai programmable assistant | + | |
- | + | ||
- | first to close k1 if voltage under 24v (for exemple) | + | |
- | segond to open k1 if ac1 avalable | + | |
- | third to close k2 if voltage uper 27v (for exemple) | + | |
- | last to open k2 if ac1 not avalable | + | |
- | + | ||
- | in this case you have a three-wire system with out any think more needed ! | + | |
- | + | ||
- | i have some systeme using this solution and all looks ok | + | |
