Capstone Communications Capstone Turbine Corporation MicroTurbine User’s Manual There are two ways for the user to communicate with the MicroTurbine, (1) either via the Display Panel, or (2) via the User Interface Port (UIP). The user may communicate directly through the display panel mounted on the MicroTurbine or through a personal computer connected to the User Interface Port. The PC may be connected to the User Interface Port directly (with an RS-232 null modem cable) or via a phone line and optional modem. Communication is then possible by use of the optional Capstone Remote Monitoring Software (CRMS) on the PC, or other program that uses Capstone’s open communication protocol. The set-up, control, and basic performance of the MicroTurbine can be monitored and adjusted through the display panel and the User Interface Port. Primary user communications include: • Start and stop functions • Adjustment of power output • Storage and display of operation history • The configuration of operational parameters • Battery management functions Routine Operation Data The Display Panel (or a computer connected directly or via modem) can be used to monitor many operational parameters during system operation. Some of the routine operation and performance data items available for monitoring are listed below: • Power Output (in kilowatts, or kW) • Turbine Speed (in revolutions per minute, or RPM) • Turbine Exit Temperature (in °C or °F) • Phase Voltages (in Volts) and Currents (in Amperes) Control Device Authority and Priority The display panel or a PC connected to the User or Maintenance interface ports can function as a control device for the MicroTurbine. Either device can view system data at any time, but only one device can control the MicroTurbine operation (that is, providing start / stop command or changes to power demand). The display panel has default control authority to issue operational commands to the MicroTurbine. The user can start and stop the MicroTurbine without logging on to the system (that is, no password is required). All other system adjustments require the user to log on to the system with the user password. The User Interface Port will take control when a password is entered either from the Capstone Remote Monitoring Software or other software using the Capstone open communication protocol. All system commands via the User Interface Port, such as start, stop, and adjustment of Power Demands, require entry of a user password. When the User Interface Port has control, the display panel does not have control and can only be used to view information. The system automatically cancels a log on after five minutes of inactivity. 400001-001 Rev. C (February 2005) Page 17 of 56 This information is proprietary to Capstone Turbine Corporation.
