Zofunika Kwambiri:

• 32-bit ARM Micro-processor: For precision parameter measurement and control.
• 4.3-inch TFT-LCD Display: With backlight and optional Chinese/English interface.
• Kuyimitsa / Kuyimitsa Mokhazikika: For genset automation.
• Data Measurement: Comprehensive monitoring of engine parameters.
• Alarm Protection: Integrated system for engine safety.
• "Three Remote" Functions: Remote control, remote measuring, and remote communication.
• SAE J1939 Interface: For communication with ECU engines, reducing wiring complexity.
• Chiyankhulo cha RS485: For communication and module expansion.

4. Kukhazikitsa ndi Kuyika

The HMC9000A is designed for compact installation and simple connections. Follow these guidelines for proper setup:

4.1 Kukwera

Mount the controller in a secure, vibration-free location, protected from direct sunlight and excessive heat. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.

4.2 Kulumikizana

All wiring should comply with local electrical codes and marine standards. Refer to the detailed wiring diagrams provided in the separate installation guide for specific connections.

• Magetsi: Connect the controller to a stable DC power source within the specified voltage osiyanasiyana.
• Engine Sensors: Connect engine sensors (e.g., oil pressure, water temperature, engine speed) to the designated input terminals. For ECU engines, the SAE J1939 interface can transmit these parameters, potentially eliminating the need for additional sensors and complex wiring.
• Othandizira: Connect start/stop solenoids, fuel solenoids, and other actuators to the appropriate output terminals.
• Communication Interfaces:
  • SAE J1939: Connect to compatible ECU engines for data exchange.
  • Mtengo wa RS485 Use for PC communication, remote control modules, or other module expansions.

Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated to prevent short circuits or interference.

5. Malangizo Ogwiritsira Ntchito

The HMC9000A controller is operated via its push-button interface and 4.3-inch LCD display.

5.1 Kuyatsa/Kuzimitsa

To power on the controller, ensure the DC power supply is connected and switched on. The controller will perform a self-test and display the main interface. To power off, disconnect the DC power supply.

5.2 Kuyenda pa Interface

Use the push-buttons on the front panel to navigate through menus, view parameters, and adjust settings. The LCD display provides clear visual feedback. The interface supports both Chinese and English languages, which can be selected in the system settings.

5.3 Automatic Start/Stop

The controller can be configured for automatic engine start and stop based on predefined conditions or remote commands. Refer to the system settings for configuring auto-start/stop parameters, including crank attempts, cool-down times, and protection delays.

5.4 Data Monitoring

The HMC9000A continuously monitors various engine parameters, including:

• Liwiro la Injini (RPM)
• Kutentha kwa Madzi
• Kuthamanga kwa Mafuta
• Kutentha kwa Mafuta
• Battery Voltage
• Maola Ogwira Ntchito
• And other relevant parameters depending on connected sensors and ECU.

These values are displayed on the LCD and can be accessed through the monitoring menus.

5.5 Alarm Protection

The controller provides comprehensive alarm protection for the engine. When an abnormal condition is detected (e.g., low oil pressure, high water temperature), the controller will trigger an alarm, display the fault on the LCD, and may initiate an automatic shutdown sequence to protect the engine. Alarm thresholds can be configured in the settings.

5.6 Ntchito Zakutali

The HMC9000A supports "three remote" functions:

• Kuwongolera kutali: Allows remote start, stop, and other operational commands.
• Remote Measuring: Enables remote viewing of all monitored engine parameters.
• Kulumikizana Kwakutali: Facilitates data exchange and configuration from a remote location, typically via the RS485 interface connected to a PC or a dedicated remote control module.

Configuration for remote functions is done through the communication interface or specific remote module settings.

5.7 Kusintha kwa Parameter

Most operational parameters, such as fixed values, time settings, and set values, can be configured directly from the front panel using the push-buttons. For more advanced configuration or bulk parameter adjustments, a PC can be connected via the communication interface (e.g., RS485) using SMARTGEN's proprietary software.

6. Kusamalira

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable operation of your HMC9000A controller.

• Kuyeretsa: Keep the controller's display and casing clean using a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Kulumikizana: Periodically check all wiring connections for tightness and signs of corrosion. Re-tighten or clean as necessary.
• Zosintha pa Mapulogalamu: Check the SMARTGEN webtsamba lawebusayiti kuti mupeze zosintha zilizonse za firmware zomwe zilipo kuti muwonetsetse kuti zikuyenda bwino komanso kuti mupeze zinthu zatsopano.
