CHAPTER 4 Capstone OPERATING MODES Table 4-1 summarizes the Dispatch modes to be described in detail below, and indicates which of these Dispatch modes apply to the two operating modes. Table 4-1. Dispatch and Operating Modes Manual (User) Yes Yes External Input (Remote) Yes Yes Load Management Yes No Manual (User) Manual Dispatch is the initial factory setting for a newly shipped microturbine. Manual Dispatch mode allows the microturbine to be commanded ON/OFF manually, and then commanded to an output power level (Grid Connect mode) or voltage level (Stand Alone mode). In this case, the term “manually” means commanded locally through the Display panel, or remotely or locally through the serial communications port. The requested output power and/or voltage will be retained in non- volatile EEPROM memory for an indefinite period and applied at the next microturbine start-up if the values are entered through the Display panel or through the serial communications port using a PC. Refer to the C200 User Manual (400008) and CRMS Technical Reference User’s Edition (410013) for setting the Manual Dispatch mode, Power Demand, and Voltage levels. Note that this Manual Dispatch mode is also referred to as “User”. External Input (Remote) The External Input mode allows an external signal to control the START/STOP status of the microturbine. Refer to the Chapter 10: Communications in this document for the specific User Connection Bay (UCB) pins and conditions required to start and stop the system. As with the Manual Dispatch mode, the power level (Grid Connect mode) or voltage level (Stand Alone mode) are stored in non-volatile memory. It is possible to set the External Input Control to have this input control both Grid Connect and Stand Alone modes (depending on which mode is enabled), or a mix of User and Remote control for the two operating modes Table 4-2 shows the four possible settings. Refer to the C200 User Manual (400008) and CRMS Technical Reference User’s Edition (410013) for setting the External Input Dispatch mode, Power Demand, and Voltage levels. Note that this External Input Dispatch mode is also referred to as “Remote”. Table 4-2.
