Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Technical Reference: Stand Alone Operation – Capstone Model C30 and C60 Stand Alone Operation System Sleep in Stand Alone Mode The MicroTurbine enters Sleep Mode to conserve battery power during prolonged periods of inactivity. This reduction in battery draw can significantly extend the MicroTurbine battery charge. Sleep Mode inactivity time can be adjusted, and this feature may be configured to activate automatically. If the battery isolation switch is set to ON, and the display panel is dark, the system is most likely in Sleep Mode. To manually place the MicroTurbine in a sleep mode: • CRMS: Not Applicable • Display panel: Pressing the INTERLOCK and DISABLE buttons simultaneously after the MicroTurbine has transitioned to Standby mode also results in system sleep. Waking a Stand Alone MicroTurbine If the Stand Alone system is in Sleep Mode, pressing the BATT START button at the far left of the Display Panel (for less than or equal to 2 seconds) will wake it up. If using remote communication, the modem ring indicator will wake up a sleeping Stand Alone system. Alternately, momentarily closing the battery start contacts in the communications bay will also wake up the system. This must be a momentary closure of 0.1 to 2.0 seconds only, as permanent closure of these UCB wakeup contacts will completely discharge the battery. See Figures 1 and 2 for location of battery start momentary contacts on the UCB. Stand Alone Mode Enable If the Stand Alone Interlock is open, the system will accept the command but post an SA Interlock Fault. If no battery is detected, a No Battery Fault is reported. The MicroTurbine can be configured to recognize Stand Alone mode using the display panel or CRMS. To configure the MicroTurbine to operate in Stand Alone mode: • CRMS: Select Settings > Control Settings, and set Power Connect slider to Stand Alone. • Display panel: Enter the user password (default is 87712370), and navigate as follows - System Data > System Configuration > Power Connect. Select Stand Alone mode, and then press the ACCEPT button. Starting a Stand Alone System After the BATT START wakes the MicroTurbine, the Stand Alone system may be started. A Start can be performed one of three ways: 1) Display panel, 2) CRMS or 3) A signal received through external switch contacts on the UCB. For external switch contacts to work properly, wiring connections to the attached device must be established before MicroTurbine software is configured to enable the switch (see “Configuring the Dispatch Modes – External Switch”) • CRMS: From the main panel, click on the Start button. • Display panel: Press and hold the INTERLOCK and START buttons simultaneously. 410028-001 Rev.
