1 INTRODUCTION
The DSE 5310 autostart module has been designed to allow the user to start and stop the generator, and if
required, transfer the load to the generator either manually (via external push-buttons) or automatically. The user
also has facility to view all the system operating parameters via the LCD display.
The DSE 5310 module monitors the engine, indicating the operational status and fault conditions; automatically
shutting down the engine and giving a true first up fault condition of an engine failure by a COMMON AUDIBLE
ALARM. The exact failure mode is indicated by text messages on the LCD display on the front panel.
The powerful microprocessor contained within the module allows for a range of complex features to be
incorporated as standard:
• Text based LCD display (supporting multiple languages).

• Voltage, Current and Power monitoring.
• Engine parameter monitoring.
• Fully configurable inputs for use as alarms or a range of different functions.
• Extensive range of output functions using built in relay outputs or relay expansion modules available.
Selective operational sequences, timers and alarm trips can be altered by the customer via a PC using the 52/53xx
series configuration software and P810 interface. Additionally, a subset of this information can be adjusted from the
module’s front panel configuration editor.
The module is housed in a robust plastic case for front panel mounting. Connections to the module are via locking
plug and sockets.

3 OPERATION
The following description details the sequences followed by a module containing the standard ‘factory
configuration’. Always refer to your configuration source for the exact sequences and timers observed by any
particular module in the field.
FIG 1
3.1 AUTOMATIC MODE OF OPERATION
NOTE:- If a digital input configured to panel lock is active, changing module modes will not be
possible. Viewing the instruments and i

is NOT affected by panel lock. If panel lock is active the
Panel lock indicator (if configured) illuminates.
This mode is activated by pressing the pushbutton. An LED indicator beside the button confirms this
action.
If the Remote Start input (if configured) is activated the relevant indicator (if configured) illuminates.
To allow for false remote start signals, the Start Delay timer is initiated. After this delay, if the pre-heat output option
is selected then the pre-heat timer is initiated, and the corresponding auxiliary output (if configured) will energise.
NOTE:- If the Remote Start signal is removed during the Start Delay timer, the unit will return to a
stand-by state.
After the above delays the Fuel Solenoid (or enable ECU output if configured) is energised, then one second
later, the Starter Motor is engaged.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, compatible ECU’s will receive the start command
via CAN.
The engine is cranked for a pre-set time. If the engine fails to fire during this cranking attempt then the starter
motor is disengaged for the pre-set rest period. Should this sequence continue beyond the set number of attempts,
the start sequence will be terminated and Fail to Start fault will be displayed.
Alarm
Shutdown
Failed to start
When the engine fires, the starter motor is disengaged and locked out at a pre-set frequency from the Alternator
output. Alternatively, a Magnetic Pickup mounted on the flywheel housing can be used for speed detection (This is
selected by PC using the 5xxx series configuration software). Rising oil pressure can also be used to disconnect
the starter motor; however, it cannot be used for underspeed or overspeed detection.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, speed sensing is via CAN.
After the starter motor has disengaged, the Safety On timer is activated, allowing Oil Pressure, High Engine
Temperature, Under-speed, Charge Fail and any delayed Auxiliary fault inputs to stabilise without triggering the
fault.
Once the engine is running, the Warm Up timer, if selected, is initiated, allowing the engine to stabilise before
accepting the load.
If an auxiliary output has been selected to give a load transfer signal, this then activates.
NOTE:-A load transfer will not be initiated until the Oil Pressure has risen. Thus preventing
excessive wear on the engine.
On removal of the Remote Start signal, the Stop delay timer is initiated, once it has timed out, the load Transfer
signal is de-energised, removing the load. The Cooling timer is then initiated, allowing the engine a cooling down
period off load before shutting down. Once the Cooling timer expires the Fuel Solenoid is de-energised, bringing
the generator to a stop.
Should the Remote Start signal be re-activated during the cooling down period, the set will return on load.
3.2 MANUAL OPERATION
NOTE:- If a digital input configured to panel lock is active, changing module modes will not be
possible. Viewing the instruments and event logs i

is NOT affected by panel lock. If panel lock is
active the Panel lock indicator (if configured) illuminates.
To initiate a start sequence in MANUAL, press the pushbutton. When the controller is in the manual mode
(indicated by an LED indicator beside the button), pressing the START (I) button will initiate the start sequence.
NOTE:- There is no Start Delay in this mode of operation.
If the pre-heat output option is selected this timer is then initiated, and the auxiliary output selected is energised.
After the above delay, the Fuel Solenoid (or ECU output if configured) is energised, then one second later, the
Starter Motor is engaged.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, compatible ECU’s will receive the start command
via CAN.
The engine is cranked for a pre-set time period. If the engine fails to fire during this cranking attempt then the
starter motor is disengaged for the pre-set rest period. Should this sequence continue beyond the set number of
attempts, the start sequence will be terminated and Fail to Start will be displayed.
When the engine fires, the starter motor is disengaged and locked out at a pre-set frequency from the Alternator
output. Alternatively, a Magnetic Pickup mounted on the flywheel housing can be used for speed detection (This is
selected by PC using the 52/53xx series configuration software). Rising oil pressure can also be used to
disconnect the starter motor; however, it cannot be used for underspeed or overspeed detection.
NOTE:- If the unit has been configured for CAN, speed sensing is via CAN.
After the starter motor has disengaged, the Safety On timer is activated, allowing Oil Pressure, High Engine
Temperature, Under-speed, Charge Fail and any delayed Auxiliary fault inputs to stabilise without triggering the
fault.
Once the engine is running, the Warm Up timer, if selected, is initiated, allowing the engine to stabilise before it
can be loaded.
The generator will run off load, unless the Remote Start on load signal is applied or, if Close generator has been
selected as a control source, the appropriate auxiliary output will then activate.
The generator will continue to run On load, until the Auto mode is selected.
If Auto mode is selected, and the remote start on load signal is not active, then the Stop Delay Timer begins,
after which, the load is disconnected. The generator will then run off load allowing the engine a cooling down
period.
Selecting STOP (O) de-energises the FUEL SOLENOID, bringing the generator to a stop.

4.2 ANALOGUE PRE-ALARMS

The following alarms are termed ‘pre-alarms’ as they pre warn the operator of a potentially more serious alarm
condition. For instance, if the engine temperature rises past the pre alarm level, a warning condition will occur to
notify the operator. If the temperature falls below this level, then the alarm ceases, and the set will continue to run
as normal. However if the temperature continues to rise until the coolant temperature trip point is reached, the
warning is escalated and a high coolant temperature shutdown is initiated.

4.4 SHUTDOWNS
Shutdowns are latching and stop the Generator. The alarm must be cleared, and the fault removed to reset the
module.
NOTE:- The alarm condition must be rectified before a reset will take place. If the alarm condition
remains it will not be possible to reset the unit (The exception to this is the Low Oil Pressure alarm and
similar ‘delayed alarms’, as the oil pressure will be low with the engine at rest).
FAIL TO START, if the engine does not fire after the pre-set number of attempts has been made a shutdown will
be initiated. Alarm Shutdown Fail To Start will be displayed.
Alarm

4.5 HIGH CURRENT SHUTDOWN ALARM

GENERATOR HIGH CURRENT, if the module detects a generator output current in excess of the pre-set trip a
warning is initiated. This warning will continue for a period of time depending upon the level of overload that the
generator is subjected to, and the configuration setting for Generator High Current in the 5xxx series configuration
software.
Alarm
Shutdown
High current trip
For instance the factory default settings for Generator High Current allow for a loading of the generator to 110% for
one hour. That is to say if the generator load level exceeds the trip point by 10%, a warning alarm will occur while
the overload condition exists. If the load level does not drop to normal levels within one hour, the set is stopped,
the 5310 module displaying either shutdown alarm or electrical trip alarm depending upon module configuration.
NOTE:- Higher overload levels will result in a faster acting shutdown condition. For instance with
the factory default configuration, an overload level twice that of the trip level ( typically 200%) will result
in a Generator High Current shutdown condition after 36 seconds.
For details of the relationship between the overload and the shutdown time, please see the Appendix
section of this manual.
4.6 ELECTRICAL TRIPS
Electrical trips are latching and stop the Generator but in a controlled manner. On initiation of the electrical trip
condition the module will de-energise the ‘Close Generator’ Output to remove the load from the generator. Once
this has occurred the module will start the Cooling timer and allow the engine to cool off-load before shutting down
the engine. The alarm must be accepted and cleared, and the fault removed to reset the module.
AUXILIARY INPUTS, if an auxiliary input has been configured as an electrical trip the appropriate message will be
displayed as configured by the user.
Example
Alarm
Electrical trip
Phase rotation
GENERATOR HIGH CURRENT. If the module detects a generator output current in excess of the pre-set trip a
warning is initiated. If this high current condition continues for an excess period of time, then the alarm is escalated
to either a shutdown or electrical trip condition (depending upon module configuration). For further details of the
high current alarm, please see High Current Shutdown Alarm.

5.5 CONTROLS
Stop / Reset
This button places the module into its Stop/reset mode. This will clear any alarm conditions for
which the triggering criteria have been removed. If the engine is running and this position is selected,
the module will automatically instruct the changeover device to unload the generator (‘Close
Generator’ becomes inactive (if used)). The fuel supply will be removed and engine will be brought
to a standstill. Should a remote start signal be present while operating in this mode, a remote start
will not occur.
If configured, the 5310 controller will enter sleep mode after 60 seconds of inactivity as a power
saving feature.
Manual
This mode is used to allow manual control of the generator functions. Once in Manual mode the
module will respond to the start (I) button and start the engine and run off load. If the engine is
running off-load in the Manual mode and a remote start signal becomes present, the module will
automatically instruct the changeover device to place the generator on load (‘Close Generator’
becomes active (if used)). Should the remote start signal then be removed the generator will
remain on load until either the ‘STOP/RESET’ or ‘AUTO’ positions is selected.
Auto
This button places the module into its ‘Automatic’ mode. This mode allows the module to control the
function of the generator automatically. The module will monitor the remote start input and once a
start condition is signalled the set will be automatically started and placed on load (‘Close
Generator’ becomes active (if used)). If the starting signal is removed the module will automatically
transfer the load from the generator and shut the set down observing the stop delay timer and
cooling timer as necessary. The module will then await the next start event. For further details
please see the more detailed description of ‘Auto Operation’ earlier in this manual.
Test
This button places the module into its ‘Test’ mode. This mode allows the operator to perform an ‘on
load’ test of the system. Once in Test mode the module will respond to the start I button and start
the engine, and run on load (‘Close Generator’ becomes active (if used)). The generator will
continue to run on load until Auto mode is selected. Then, If the starting signal is removed, the
module will automatically transfer the load from the generator and shut the set down observing the
stop delay timer and cooling timer as necessary. The module will then await the next start event.
For further details please see the more detailed description of ‘Test Operation’ earlier in this manual.
Start
This button is only active in STOP/RESET , MANUAL or TEST mode.
Pressing this button in manual or test mode will start the engine and run off load (manual) or on load
(test).
Pressing this button in STOP/RESET mode will turn on the CAN engine ECU (when correctly
I
configured and fitted to a compatible engine ECU)
Mute / Lamp Test
This button silences the audible alarm if it is sounding and illuminates all of the LEDs. If there is no
audible alarm this button will only illuminate all the LEDs.
When correctly configured and fitted to a compatible engine ECU, pressing this button in
STOP/RESET mode after pressing the START I button (to power the ECU) will cancel any
“passive” alarms on the engine ECU.

10 COMMISSIONING
10.1.1 PRE-COMMISSIONING
Before the system is started, it is recommended that the following checks are made:-
10.1. The unit is adequately cooled and all the wiring to the module is of a standard and rating compatible with the
system.
10.2. The unit DC supply is fused and connected to the battery and that it is of the correct polarity.
10.3. The Emergency Stop input is wired to an external normally closed switch connected to DC positive.
NOTE:- If Emergency Stop feature is not required, link this input to the DC Positive. The module will
not operate unless either the Emergency Stop is fitted correctly OR Pin 3 is connected to DC positive.
10.4. To check the start cycle operation take appropriate measures to prevent the engine from starting (disable the
operation of the fuel solenoid). After a visual inspection to ensure it is safe to proceed, connect the battery
supply. Select “MANUAL”, the unit start sequence will commence.
10.5. The starter will engage and operate for the pre-set crank period. After the starter motor has attempted to
start the engine for the pre-set number of attempts the LCD will display ‘Failed to start. Select the
STOP/RESET position to reset the unit.
10.6. Restore the engine to operational status (reconnect the fuel solenoid), again select “MANUAL”, this time the
engine should start and the starter motor should disengage automatically. If not then check that the engine is
fully operational (fuel available, etc.) and that the fuel solenoid is operating. The engine should now run up to
operating speed. If not, and an alarm is present, check the alarm condition for validity, then check input
wiring. The engine should continue to run for an indefinite period. It will be possible at this time to view the
engine and alternator parameters - refer to the ‘Description of Controls’ section of this manual.
10.7. Select “AUTO” on the front panel, the engine will run for the pre-set cooling down period, then stop. The
generator should stay in the standby mode. If not check that there is not a signal present on the Remote
start input.
10.8. Initiate an automatic start by supplying the remote start signal. The start sequence will commence and the
engine will run up to operational speed. Once the generator is available a load transfer will take place, the
Generator will accept the load. If not, check the wiring to the Generator Contactor Coil (if used). Check the
Warming timer has timed out.
10.9. Remove the remote start signal, the return sequence will start. After the pre-set time period, the load will be
removed from the generator. The generator will then run for the pre-set cooling down period, then shutdown
into it’s standby mode.
10.10. Set the modules internal clock/calendar to ensure correct operation of the scheduler and event logging
functions. For details of this procedure see section entitled Front Panel Configuration – Editing the date and
time.
10.11. If, despite repeated checking of the connections between the 5310 and the customer’s system, satisfactory
operation cannot be achieved, then the customer is requested to contact the factory for further advice on:-

13 TYPICAL WIRING DIAGRAM
14 APPENDIX
14.1 ALTERNATIVE WIRING TOPOLOGIES
The 53xx series controllers can support many different wiring topologies (AC systems) to suit the many systems in
use worldwide. The ‘Typical connection diagram’ details how to connect the module when used in a 3 phase, 4
wire system (3 phase star connected alternators). Changes to this typical wiring diagram for other AC systems are
detailed below.
NOTE:- The factory default configuration for the 5310 module is for use with the 3 phase, 4 wire AC
system. If another system is to be used, the controller must be reconfigured using the 5xxx series
configuration software.

NOTE:- . It is important that terminal 47 ( sender common ) is soundly connected to an earth point
on the ENGINE BLOCK, not within the control panel, and must be a sound electrical connection to the
sender bodies.
NOTE:- . If you use PTFE insulating tape on the sender thread when using earth return senders,
ensure you do not insulate the entire thread as this will prevent the sender body from being earthed via
the engine block.

14.4.3 FUEL LEVEL SENDERS

The resistive fuel level senders supported by the 5300 series controllers are devices that translate fuel level into
resistance. A change in fuel level translates directly to a change in the resistance of the sender. In the case of a
parallel sided fuel tank, an accurate measure of the fuel level can easily be made, however as shown in the
example below, this is not the case with non-parallel sided fuel tanks. Therefore it is recommended that only
parallel sided fuel tanks are used to ensure correct fuel level detection.
The fuel sender measures

the distance between the top
of the tank and the fuel level.
Typically, they use a ball
float.
In this example, the distance
between the top of the tank
and the level of the fuel is
50% of the height of the
tank. The fuel level sender
will report the tank correctly
as being 50% full.
For a parallel-sided tank like

this one, 50% distance
and the level of the fuel will
occur when the tank is 50%
full of fuel.
In this example, the distance
and the level of the fuel is
again 50% of the height of
the tank, the fuel level
sender will report the tank as
being 50% full.
However, as the bottom of

the tank is curved, the actual
amount of fuel in the tank is
only about 40%. The fuel
sender is incorrectly
reporting the amount of
remaining fuel.
14.5 CAN INTERFACE

Modules are fitted with the CAN interface as standard and are capable of receiving engine data from
engine CAN controllers compliant with the CAN standard.
CAN enabled engine controllers monitor the engines operating parameters such as engine speed, oil
pressure, engine temperature (among others) in order to closely monitor and control the engine. The data that is
gathered by the engine controller is then transmitted on an industry standard communications interface (CAN). This
allows generator controllers such as the DSE 53xx range to access these engine parameters with no physical
connection to the sensor device.
NOTE:- For further details for connections to CAN enabled engines refer to the manual CAN and
DSE Wiring Part No. 057-004
14.6 OUTPUT EXPANSION

There are several methods of output expansion available for the 5xxx module:-
14.6.1 RELAY OUTPUT EXPANSION (157)

An expansion module is available, which connects to the configuration socket and enables the 53xx to use eight
additional relays on the 157 relay module, providing Volt-free contacts for customer connection. A maximum of 2
off 157 relay modules can be connected, there are identified as ‘A’ and ‘B’ and give a total of 16 extra relay
outputs.
Refer to technical data sheet on the 157 relay module for further details.
14.6.2 LED OUTPUT EXPANSION (548)

An expansion module is available, which connects to the configuration socket, and enables the 53xx to use eight
additional LED’s on the 548 module, providing remote LED’s indication up to 50 metres away. A maximum of 2 off
548 LED modules can be connected, there are identified as ‘A’ and ‘B’ and give a total of 16 extra LED outputs.
It is possible to use a mix of 157 and 548 modules to give both relay and LED expansion if required (Please refer to
our Technical Support department for details.).
14.7 INPUT EXPANSION

It is possible to increase the number of monitored inputs available by utilising either :
¾ DSE P130 input expansion

¾ 54x Protection Expansion/Annunciator.
Please refer to the relevant product documentation for further details.
14.8 COMMUNICATIONS OPTION CONNECTIONS

14.8.1 DESCRIPTION
The 5xxx series configuration software allows the 5310 controller to communicate with a PC. The computer can be
connected to the module either directly (P810 shown to the right), via a modem (RS232)* or via an RS485 link**.
The operator is then able to remotely control the module, starting or stopping the generator, selecting operating
modes, etc. The various operating parameters (such as output volts, oil pressure, etc.) on the remote generator
can also be viewed.
The information contained in this manual should be read in conjunction with the appropriate module
documentation. This manual only details the operation of the communications software and how it should be used.
The operation of the module is detailed in its own relevant manual.
NOTE: - *If modem communications is a requirement, then it is important to order the correct 5310
module with the RS232 communications board fitted. This provides a 9-way D-type connector suitable
for connection to the modem. Please refer to the comms section of this manual for details of how the
system should be configured.
**If RS485 communications is required, then it is important to order the correct 5310 module with the
RS485 communications board fitted. This provides a 3-way terminal block for connection of the RS485
link.
14.8.2 PC TO CONTROLLER (DIRECT) CONNECTION
To connect a 5310 to a modem the following items are required: -

• Any 5310 Module (RS232 or RS485)
• 5xxx series configuration software (Supplied on DSE software
CD).
• P810 interface (USB or RS232 as required)
14.8.3 MODEM TO CONTROLLER CONNECTION
To connect a 5310 to a modem the following items are required: -
• 5310 Module with RS232 Communications Interface

• Compatible RS232 Modem (PSTN or GSM)
• Suitable connection leads
• Power supply for the modem
• 5xxx series configuration software (Supplied on DSE software CD).
• Access to a PSTN Line or GSM network.
CAUTION! - The modem must be powered from a suitably stabilised supply, preferably supplied with
the modem (see below). Failure to ensure continuity of supply will result in communication difficulties at
such times as Mains failure or during cranking. An uninterruptible power supply arrangement is
recommended (AC or DC depending on modem power requirement).
14.8.4 RS485 LINK TO CONTROLLER
The RS485 enabled 5310 modules are able to communicate with a PC or other RS485 enabled device over a
standard RS485 connection. Typical uses of RS485 are:
• Direct connection to a remote PC running the 5xxx series configuration software. RS485 is capable of
communication over a distance of 1.2km where suitable 120Ω RS485 cable is installed.
• Connection to a building management to allow mains, generator and engine parameters/alarm conditions to be
displayed along with information from other devices (air conditioning, fire alarm system etc).
Typical connections of
RS485 PC system
(master) to RS485 DSE
controller (slave)
NOTE: - The RS485 system will comprise of one MODBUS master (typically a PC) and up to 31
MODBUS slaves. The 5310 modules are always MODBUS slave devices. To ensure correct operation a
suitable 120Ω terminal resistor must be fitted to each end of the RS485 connection bus.
Caution! - The A and B lines of the 485 network should be terminated at each end with a 120Ω
resistor.
Some RS485 devices (PC cards in particular) are already fitted with a terminating resistor. However if
they are not installed as an ‘end of line’ device then such terminating resistors must be removed. Other
RS485 devices may be fitted with a ‘switchable’ resistor, again this must be switched out if the device is
not installed as an ‘end of line’ device.
TYPICAL BUILDING MANAGEMENT SCHEME USING RS485 MONITORING
CAUTION! -. RS485 cabling must be 120Ω impedance cable, specified for use with RS485. 120Ω
terminating resistors must be fitted to the first and last devices on the bus. Some PC RS485 cards are
already fitted with this resistor, and in this case should not be fitted externally. If in doubt, consult the
supplier of your PC RS485 card.
If the 5310 controller is the ‘last’ device on the bus, then it’s RS485 connection must be suitably
terminated with a 120Ω resistor as detailed in the specification laid out in the RS485 standard.
Recommended cable BELDEN 9841 120Ω RS485 cable.

DSE part number 016-030.
NOTE: - The RS485 output uses ‘MODBUS’ protocol. It is possible to use third party software to
monitor and control the 5310 module via this protocol.
Please refer to Deep Sea Electronics Plc for details.
14.8.5 MODBUS™
The RS485 output uses Modbus™ communications protocol. This uses a master-slave technique to communicate.
Only the Master can initiate a packet transaction, called a ‘query’. When appropriate the slave (5310 Module)
responds to the query and provides the information requested by the master.
All supported data can be read and written as specified in the register table (documentation is available from Deep
Sea Electronics Plc.).
When the 5310 Module receives a query it will respond by either supplying the requested register data or
performing the requested action. A slave device (the 5310 module) will never initiate communications on the
Modbus™ link. The 5310 can only be configured as a slave device. The Master can only query individual slaves.
Refer to the Modbus™ protocol document for more details.
