We start gen for test run via CCGX and the only condition to stop is when battery SOC is 100%. When battery reaches 100% the generator does not stop. We've also had the same behaviour when using battery voltage as the only condition.
I've read elsewhere that if we stop the gen manually (ie not with CCGX, but on the gen) then there may be a sync problem. Is there a way to start from scratch as it were? Do we reset the CCGX or turn off the Multiplus, or both?
Keep a eye on why its running under autostart. by changing to the generator view page and reading the reason its started , then the only way to stop it is to use the same stop trigger procedure as that that started it.
if you stop the gen manually then as far as the ccgx is concerned its still running and no other restart will occur.
you must stop it using the CCGX stop sequence.
and no that wont cause a sync issue
The autostart function will only start and stop under the same condition, You cant start under one condition and the stop under another
IE SOC start ar 40% Turn off Stop at 80%
if you manually start then only manual stop will stop the generator
Also read the lines carefully as SOC stop says stop when higher than, so stopping at 100% would not work as you cant get higher so use start at 40% and stop at 99%
Is there a method to clear the stored conditions, ie start/stop SOC etc, in the CCGX? Some sort of hardware reset?
Your can turn all the auto start off here
Or just the SOC here
Just to close the thread: I updated the CCGX firmware and turned off the Multiplus then turned it on again, after which the generator now stops when reaching the SOC stop value. Can't believe it was the firmware update.
