ATS COM ERROR

UnclassifiedCooling

What This Code Means

AC Sensing Lost; Accessory Power Overload; High generator current detected; Generator set shuts down to protect the alternator from damage caused by overheating the windings; RXT interface connection is lost; Transfer switch phase rotation does not match; ATS will not transfer; Optional customer-connected input is closed; Battery charger fault; Engine starting battery voltage rises above 125% of the battery voltage setting for more than 10 seconds; Engine starting battery voltage falls below the battery voltage setting (typically 12.5 volts) for more than 90 seconds when the engine is not running

Possible Causes

  • Generator output AC sensing is lost
  • Over current fault (short circuit) on the accessory controller power output
  • High generator current
  • RXT interface connection is lost
  • Transfer switch phase rotation does not match
  • Optional customer-connected input is closed (Digital input from optional PIM.)
  • Input to PIM from an external battery charger (not the built-in battery charger)
  • High engine starting battery voltage
  • Low engine starting battery voltage

Suggested Actions

  1. 1Contact an authorized distributor/dealer for service
  2. 2Reduce the load
  3. 3Check communication wiring between transfer switch interface board and generator set
  4. 4Correct the ATS connection
  5. 5Refer to the ATS Installation manual, wiring diagrams, and labels on the transfer switch
  6. 6Check customer-supplied equipment
  7. 7Check external battery charger
  8. 8Check the battery rating and condition
  9. 9Check the battery charger operation
