System Schematic For Spare Fault InputsA spare fault informs the operator of an undesirable condition (fault) that exists. The spare inputs are programmed into the GSC+ to meet the requirements of the customer or application. An active spare input causes an alarm fault or a shutdown fault. For programming of the spare inputs, see System Operation, "Spare Input/Output Programming OP6". The programmer (customer, operator or service personnel) should make a note of the actual conditions that cause an SP fault code to be shown on the upper display. The GSC+ does not diagnose the spare inputs. Spare faults are not recorded in the fault log.The GSC+ treats an active input state as a fault. The active state can be programmed on the GSC+ as a high voltage level or a low voltage level. The factory default is a low voltage level. A high level is within the range of +5 DCV to + battery. If the input remains floating, the GSC+ pulls up the input voltage to 10.5 DCV. In this case, the input is treated as high level. An example of a floating input would be an open switch. A low level on the input is "B-" (ground).When a spare fault occurs, the GSC+ determines the type of fault. There are two types of faults: alarm and shutdown. Then, the GSC+ FLASHES the corresponding fault alarm indicator or fault shutdown indicator. The SP fault code is immediately shown on the upper display for a shutdown type of fault. For an alarm type of fault, the alarm codes key is pressed first. Then, the SP fault code is shown on the upper display. After a spare fault is corrected or a spare fault is not present, the SP fault code is no longer shown on the upper display.

( 1 ) See Systems Operation, "Spare Input/Output Programming OP6".SP fault codes are associated with the spare inputs. The SP fault code that is shown on the upper display identifies the spare input that caused the alarm fault or the shutdown fault. The spare inputs are accessed on the terminal strip within the control panel on an inside wall.When an SP fault code is showing on the upper display, check the notes which were made by the service personnel in order to determine the cause.The spare fault inputs can be used with the factory installed options and the customer installed options. The following items are the factory options for the spare fault input: ground fault, low fuel level, high fuel level, high generator winding temperature and high generator bearing
