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 shutdown fault. For programming of the spare inputs, see System Operation, "Spare Input/Output Programming OP6". It is the responsibility of the programmer (customer, operator, or service personnel) to 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 is programmable on the GSC+ to be either a high or low (factory default) voltage level. A high level is within the range of +5 DCV to battery positive. If the input is left floating (for example an open switch), the GSC+ pulls the input voltage up to 10.5 DCV and the input is treated as high level. A low level on the input is "B-" (ground).When a spare fault occurs (is active), the GSC+ determines the type of fault (alarm or shutdown) and FLASHES the corresponding fault alarm indicator or fault shutdown indicator. For a shutdown type of fault, the SP fault code is immediately shown on the upper display. For an alarm type of fault, the alarm codes key is pressed first and then the SP fault code is shown on the upper display. After a spare fault is corrected or is not present, the SP fault code is no longer shown on the upper display.

( 1 ) See System Operation, "Spare Input/Output Programming OP6".SP fault codes are associated with the spare inputs. The SP fault code shown on the upper display, identifies the spare input that caused the alarm fault or shutdown fault. The spare inputs are accessed on the terminal strip within the control panel on the rear wall.When an SP fault code is showing on the upper display, check the programming notes (made by the customer, operator, or service personnel) to determine the cause.The spare fault inputs can be used with factory and/or customer installed options. The factory options for the spare fault input are: ground fault, low fuel level, high fuel level, high generator winding temperature and high generator bearing temperature. Each of these options will include a dedicated indicator and a label on the custom alarm module.Troubleshooting Procedure
In order to troubleshoot spare faults, use the following general procedure.
