Electrical safety
✓ Electric shock can cause severe personal injury or death.
✓ Ensure the generator set must be grounded before performing any installation or service.
✓ Generators produce high electrical voltages, direct contact with it can cause fatal electrical shock.
Prevent contact with terminals, bare wires, connections, etc., while the generator and related
equipment are running. Do not tamper with interlocks.
✓ To handle the maximum electrical current, sizes of wire gauge used for electrical connections and
wirings must be appropriate to which they will be subjected to.

In operation safety
✓ Before installing AT1000, ensure that all power voltage supplies are positively turned off at their
source. Disconnect the generator’s battery cables and remove panel fuse to prevent accidental start
up. Disconnect the cable from the battery post, indicated by a NEGATIVE, NEG, or (–) first.
Reconnect the negative cable last. Failure to do so will result in hazardous and possibly fatal electrical
shock.
✓ Remove electric power supply before removing AT1000 or touching other electrical parts.
✓ Use extreme caution when working on electrical components. High voltage can cause injury or death.
✓ Use rubber insulative mats placed on dry wood platforms over floors that are metal or concrete when
working near generator set or other electrical equipment.
✓ Do not wear damp clothing (particularly wet shoes) or allow skin surface to be damp when handling
electrical equipment.
✓ Do not operate any electrical device or wires while standing in water, while barefoot, or while hands or
feet are wet. It may result in severe electrical shock.

✓ Do not wear jewellery. Jewellery can cause a short circuit within electrical contacts and cause shock
or burning.
✓ In case of an accident caused by electric shock, immediately shut down the electrical power source. If
this is not possible, try to release the victim from the live conductor. Avoid direct contact with the
victim. Use a non-conducting object, like, a rope or wooden stick, to release the victim from the live
conductor. If the victim is unconscious, apply first aid and get immediate medical help.

Accuracy ±2% of full scale

The sensor common point (SCP) terminal should be directly connected to an

electrically sound point on the engine body. This point on the engine body should
serve as a common reference point for all analog sensors such as those for
measuring shelter temperature. The electrical cable used for the connection should
not be shared with any other electrical connection. Such a wiring practice is strongly
recommended to ensure that there is negligible potential difference, if any, between
the engine body and SCP terminal, and, predictable and accurate analog sensor
measurements are always available in a wide variety of field conditions.

Module Operation
Different operating modes to be supported by AT1000 are defined below:
• Manual mode
• Auto mode
• Test mode

Manual Mode
In this mode, the operator can manually control the transfer of load using press keys available on front
fascia.
Start sequence: As the user enters in the manual mode, a start request is sent to S2. The starting
signal remains active during this mode. The request is sent via digital output “Start and Run S2’ If S2
fails to generate voltage or frequency within "S2 fail delay", then it is indicated on LCD screen with “Fail
to Start” alarm.
Load transfer: Load transfer on S2 takes place in either of the following conditions
a. An input is given to transfer load on S2 using "open/close S2".
b. The front fascia key S2 is pressed for latching load on S2
Similarly, load transfer off S2 takes place in either of the following conditions
a. An input given to transfer load to S1 source.
b. The front fascia key S2 is pressed for unlatching load from S2.
c. Mode is changed to Auto mode. If conditions are suitable, then the system transfers back to S1
supply automatically.
Stopping sequence:
a) To carry out stop sequence, user should change operating mode to auto.
b) In case of any electrical trip or shutdown, AT1000 starts stopping sequence of S2.

Page | 28
AT1000 SEDEMAC

Figure 14: SMD for Manual mode

Auto Mode
In auto mode, the controller monitors voltage and frequency of the incoming AC supply from two
different sources, S1 and S2 and transfers load on available source depending upon inputs and timers.
When S1 source fails, it issues a start command to the S2 source. Once the S2 is producing healthy
voltage and frequency, AT1000 switches the load to S2.
Load returns to the S1, when S1 is healthy. If a starting request is made and there is no input present
for “Auto start inhibit”, the starting sequence begins.
Starting sequence: Start request are given in following two cases.:
• S1 source failure occurs
• Input configured to S1 failure is activated.
• Input configured to start S2 is activated.
After S1 failure, start delay timer begins after which start command is given to S2. Given that any input
restricting the start of S2 is not available. Once S2 is available and healthy, load transfer on S2 takes
place. However, If S2 fails to generate voltage or frequency within "S2 fail delay", then it is indicated on
LCD screen with “Fail to Start” alarm.
Load switching: Once the S2 is healthy for the duration of “Warming up time”, the AT1000 transfers the
load to S2 source. Given that any input restricting load transfer is not available/inactive.
Stopping sequence: Stopping sequence begins when start request is removed.
a) When the start request is permanently removed, “Return delay” timer starts. After “Return delay”
time, when S1 is available, load transfer from S2 to S1 takes place. As soon as load transfer is
initiated, “Cooling timer” starts and allows the source S2 to run off load and cool sufficiently
before stopping.
b) In case of any electrical trip or shutdown, AT1000 starts stopping sequence of S2.

Page | 29
AT1000 SEDEMAC
Auto - Site Battery Monitoring Mode
This mode is used where the primary application of available sources is to supply power to converters
charging the site batteries of base transceiver station. This mode enables the controller to monitor the
health of the Site battery and accordingly control the power sources (S1/S2) to keep the battery charge
within the specified threshold. In most of the cases, S1 is considered as mains whereas S2 is
considered as genset.
This mode also supports partial healthy condition of primary source. Partial healthy is a state in which
S1 is not considered as failed even if one or two-phase failure take place. The S1 source keeps
supplying power through the available phase/s. S1 failure occurs only when all the three phases fail.
Upon S1 failure S2 shall receive start command only if either of following conditions occur
a) Site Battery voltage level has reached below its lower limits.
b) Shelter temperature has exceeded its upper threshold limits.
c) If either of a) or b) occur when source is partially healthy.
Start sequence: Start sequence of S2 takes place in either of the following conditions:
a) In this mode if the Site battery condition is healthy and the mains is unhealthy, the controller
keeps both the contactors (S1 and S2) open and waits till the Site battery gets discharged
below “Low Battery threshold”, after which start command is given to S2.
b) In this mode if the Site battery condition is healthy and the mains is unhealthy, the controller
keeps both the contactors (S1 and S2) open and waits till the shelter temperature exceeds its
pre-defined limit, after which start command is given to S2.
c) In this mode, if mains is partially healthy, at the same time if site battery voltage below threshold
point, AT1000 gives start command to S2. After S2 becomes healthy, AT1000 latches the load
to S2 contactor.
d) In this mode, if mains is partially healthy, at the same time, shelter temperature exceeds its pre-
defined limit, after which start command is given to S2.
e) The only source available is S2
Load transfer sequence: Whenever S2 is available, load will be transferred to S2.
Stop sequence:
a) Stop sequence of S2 takes place when S2 run duration is completed.
b) Stop sequence of S2 takes place when shelter temperature reaches below threshold point.
c) In case of any electrical trip or shutdown, AT1000 starts stopping sequence of S2.

Page | 30
AT1000 SEDEMAC

Figure 15: SMD for Auto mode

Test Mode
In the Test Mode, the AT1000 sends a start request to the S2 and places it ON/OFF load depending on
the configuration set. It continues to be in this state till mode is changed or “Test Mode Duration Ends”.
Load transfer through front fascia keys is not allowed in this mode.
Test mode on load: Availability of S2 is immediately followed by load transfer on it.
Test mode off load: Availability of S2 is not followed by immediate load transfer on it.
Start sequence: As the user enters in the test mode, a start request is sent to S2 via digital output “Start
and Run S2’ If S2 fails to generate voltage or frequency within "S2 fail delay", then it is indicated on
LCD screen with “Fail to Start” alarm. The starting signal remains active during this mode.
Load transfer: Load transfer on S2 takes place in either of the following conditions:
a) Test mode is configured “on load”
b) S1 failure occurs when test mode is configured “off load”.
Failure of either source transfers load on the other source, provided that the other source is healthy &
ready to take load.
Stopping sequence: Stop sequence carried out in either of the following conditions:
a) User should change operating mode to auto mode.
b) Test mode timer ends, post which the controller enters in its previous mode in which it was
present prior entering the test mode.
c) In case of any electrical trip or shutdown, AT1000 starts stopping sequence of S2.

Contactor latching sequence

In case of failure of S1 source, S2 source starts and load transfers to S2 source. When S1
becomes healthy again then load transfers to S1 source from S2. Following flowchart gives the
information about the contactor latching and load transfer sequence between the sources S1 & S2.

Control of 3 position motorized change over switch

AT1000 is designed to control and operate 3 position motorized changeover switch which is widely used
in control panels. The positions of the switch are S1 (Primary/Mains), 0 (Neutral/intermediate) and S2
(Auxiliary/genset).

Page | 33
AT1000 SEDEMAC
An intermediate phase is attained in between change of source during the operation, which is also
called as isolation. This is for safeguarding the contactors. The sequence followed for changeover is
S1-0-S2 and vice versa.
User needs to configure 3 dedicated outputs on the AT1000 for the S1, 0 and S2 pulses.
Following steps are followed for change of source from S1 to S2:
• If S1 becomes unhealthy, AT1000 issues a start command to S2.
• After warm–up delay, AT1000 starts load transfer delay and closes S2 contactor.
The warmup delay should be configured such that at the end of it, the S2 source should be healthy and
ready to take the load. Also, the Changeover switch requires 230V to operate, hence it is necessary
that the S2 source is healthy and starts powering the changeover switch to receive the input and take
the necessary action (change of position).
• AT1000 waits for “Contactor Output Wait Delay” to complete to give neutral position pulse.
• AT1000 waits for “Neutral Position Wait Delay” to complete and then gives “Close S2 Contactor
Pulse” to shift the load to S2 source.
Following steps are followed for change of source from S2 to S1
• When S1 source becomes healthy, AT1000 starts load transfer delay and closes S1 contactor.
• AT1000 waits for “Contactor Output Wait Delay” to complete to give neutral position pulse.
• AT1000 waits for “Neutral Position Wait Delay” to complete and then gives “Close S1 Contactor
Pulse” to shift the load to S1 source.
• Simultaneously, AT1000 sends stop command to S2 source for stopping.

Alarms
The AT1000 controller allows to configure several types of alarms.
An alarm condition occurs when the preconfigured parameter goes out of pre-set level. On initiation of
the alarm, the alarm LED starts blinking, and sounder alarm gets activated, if configured. The controller
displays name of alarms along with counts on “ALARMS” screen and the nature of alarm. Press DOWN
key for 3 sec to acknowledge the alarms. The controller does not perform the defined task if the
associated alarms are left unacknowledged. Kindly refer the alarm messages and their description for
further information in the Table 26 and Table 27.

Failure and opening the breaker.
Used to give a delay before starting S2. This timer is
activated upon the respective start command being
issued. Typically, this timer is applied to prevent 0 – 3600 sec
starting upon fleeting remote start signals or short

source.
Used to delay the S2 failure detection. The module
instructs that S2 is to start and waits for the period
of this timer for S2 to become available. If it is not 1 – 3600 sec
available when the timer expires, the S2 failure
alarm is triggered.
The time between S2 load switch being opened and
the S1 load switch being closed (or vice versa).
Used to give time for the load switches to move to
their correct positions and to prevent the mechanical
interlock from “jamming”. This timer can also be 2 – 600 sec
used to give a ‘dead time’ to ensure that any
machinery stops fully after removal of the supply,
before applying the new supply to the equipment
(for instance directly driven AC motors).
A delay, used in auto mode only, that allows for
short term removal of the request to stop the S2
before action is taken. This is usually used to ensure 0 – 18000 sec
the set remains on load before accepting that the
start request has been removed.
The amount of time that the set will be made to run 0 – 3600 sec
OFF LOAD before being stopped. This is to allow

Remedial Actions
• Check the battery voltage.
• Check the fuse on the battery supply.
• Check continuity between battery positive and
controller terminal # 2.
• Check continuity between battery ground and
controller terminal # 1.
• Check if the “Emergency Stop” switch is working
OK. Check its wiring also.
• Enter “configuration mode” in controller and
verify the configuration of “EMERGENCY STOP”
polarity.
• Check the respective switch/sensor and wiring.
• Enter “configuration mode” in the controller and
verify the respective threshold configuration.
• Check wiring of the respective alternator phase
voltage and the CT to the controller.
• Check the CT ratio (if kW or current reading is
faulty).
• Check the wiring of the respective phase to the
controller.
• If the problem is not resolved, replace the
controller and try again.
• Reset the controller power.

Communications Protocol
Introduction to Communication Protocol
The AT1000 Series controllers support two communication protocol: a custom protocol based on
MODBUS over a RS485 layer.

RS485 MODBUS Based Protocol

The AT1000 controller implement a custom protocol based on standard MODBUS protocol. It operates
in a slave mode and responds to commands received from an external MODBUS master. The details of
the protocol are as listed below:

Connection Details
The following section describes the connection details of RS485 MODBUS to SMPS MODBUS module.
On the AT1000, Pin 16 is represented as A and Pin 15 is represented as B.

Figure 19: RS485 MODBUS connection with the help of two core shielded twisted pair cable
The transmission mode used by AT1000 controller is MODBUS RTU (not
MODBUS ASCII). The byte format for communication is 1 start bit, 8 data bits,
with/without parity bit and 1 stop bit. The baud rate is selectable between 1200
kbps to 115200 kbps through the configuration options. Similarly, the slave ID can
be selected through the configuration options.

Precautions
• Keep the slave ID of the AT1000 controller and SMPS same, take the slave ID from the SMPS
and configure the same ID in AT1000.
• Enable the AT1000 in the configuration of the SMPS after hardware connections are made, so
the SMPS can communicate with the AT1000.
• Connect the Pin # 16 & 15 (A & B) of the AT1000 to the pin # A & B of the SMPS respectively
and not with any other pin.
• Use two core shielded cable for connection.
• Use different colour wires for Pin # 16 & 15 (A & B) for easy detection and connection.
• Route the Pin # 16 & 15 (A & B) wires properly ensuring they do not get short with any other
wires.
• Do not use multi strand wires for the connection.

Supported Functions
This AT1000 operates as a MODBUS slave that responds to certain commands (or functions, as
defined by MODBUS standard) received from the MOSBUS master in appropriate format. Supported

from the MODBUS master is other than the three functions mentioned below, an exception message is
generated.
