The above sketches show general form / shape of the Electronic Control Panel
(ECP).
The panel housing is fabricated from MS sheet and powder coat painted. The
front plate is an aluminium plate coated with a plastic film, which bears legend for
each of the scan parameter LEDs, as well as the fault lamps.
Inputs
1. Battery supply
2. Coolant Water Temperature sensor
3. Auxiliary Temperature Sensor (Intake Manifold temperature Only on KTA-38
–G5 and KTA-50-G8 engines.)
4. Oil pressure sensor
5. Engine speed sensor i.e. Magnetic Pick up
6. Oil pressure safety control

Outputs
Key switch is used to turn on / off the 24 VDC battery supply to the ECP, to start
the engine and to stop the engine.
Turning ON the key switch will start the scanning of engine parameters, and will
open the Fuel shut down valve if no active High Water Temperature or Low
Coolant Water Level fault exists. Also the electronics in the panel looks for any
sensor fault / shorted LUB oil pressure safety control and indicates any fault
appropriately as described in detail in the diagnostic section.
When the key switch is taken to the spring loaded “START” position, the starter
solenoid will turn ON, causing the STARTER to engage the flywheel ring gear
and rotate the engine.
As the engine fires and picks up speed, the starter solenoid is de-activated
automatically, thereby disengaging the starter from the flywheel ring gear, thus
protecting the starter from “OVERCRANKING”.
As long as the engine is running, taking the key switch to “START” position will
not activate the starter solenoid. This feature prevents the starter damage that
can be caused by an attempt to engage the starter with flywheel ring gear when
the engine is already running.
There is also a built in timer mechanism that prevents starter damage due to
over-cranking. After 5 seconds from the instance the key is turned to “START”
position, the starter solenoid will automatically de-activate and will remain de-
activated at least for 5 seconds, even if the key remains in start position.
The starter interlock is speed based and not Lubricating Oil Pressure based as in
many other schemes, and therefore is independent of possible delays in oil
pressure build up.
The row of green LEDs on the left side of display is used to indicate which
parameter is being indicated at any given moment. Screen printed in front of
each of these LEDs, is the name of the parameter that the Display will indicate
when that LED is lit.
SCAN MODE: The display changes from one parameter to the next after
displaying each parameter for 2 seconds. After displaying the last parameter the
display rolls over to the first parameter and scanning goes on until the key switch
is ON.
CONTINUOUS DISPLAY MODE: The scanning can be stopped and any desired
parameter can be viewed in continuous mode as follows.
To start scanning again push the SCAN button momentarily and release.
Sensor Fault
Just below the row of green Parameter LEDs there is a red LED, which indicates
sensor faults. While scanning parameters if the corresponding sensor is found
faulty, the sensor fault LED glows while scanning that particular parameter.
Simultaneously, if the sensor is open, then the Display Window will indicate ‘O ’.
(O followed by three blanks). Similarly if the sensor is found shorted, then the
Display Window will indicate ‘ S ‘. (S followed by three blanks).
When the engine water temperature exceeds beyond 95° C the engine will shut
down and the HWT LED will keep glowing until the fault is acknowledged by turning
off the panel
When the engine speed goes beyond 1650 RPM and remains there for more than
10 seconds, the engine trips. Momentary overshoots of engine speed during start
up or those due to sudden load throw off will therefore not result in spurious engine
tripping. The OS LED will keep glowing until the fault is acknowledged by turning off
the panel.
The engine shuts down when the LLOP safety control opens and LUB oil pressure
goes below 15 PSI. The LLOP LED will keep glowing until the fault is
acknowledged by turning off the panel
When any of the above mentioned faults occur the engine will not fire (since the
Supply to the shut down coil is cut off) until the panel is reset. To reset the panel,
Turn the panel OFF by moving the key switch to OFF position. Restart the engine
After attending the fault.
There are four more diagnostic LEDs and associated events other than those
mentioned above. They are as follows
Charge:
This LED glows when there is no charging current flowing to the battery. Hence this
LED glows when the engine is not running. When the engine starts running and the
charging alternator starts supplying charging current to the batteries this LED will go
off.
Oil SW Fault:
The LUB oil pressure safety control is normally open. When oil pressure develops
the safety control changes over and closes. However, a shorted LUB oil pressure
safety control can go undetected. To detect this potentially dangerous fault, a
diagnostic LED has been added here.
This LED glows if, a shorted LUB oil pressure safety control is detected when key
Switch is turned on, but the engine is yet to be started. The logic that is used here is
that, with engine at stand still and the panel powered up, the LUB oil pressure
safety control should be open and with the engine running and LUB oil pressure
developed, the LUB oil pressure safety control should be closed.

3. Remote stop: Apply 24 volts DC at the pin J of the 10-pin connector, for
sufficient time to stop the engine from a remote external contact. This input will
not draw more than 10 mA from the 24 V source.

Mounting:
Temperature:
Do not splash water or other liquids directly on the panel. Use dry cloth first to
remove dust. The surfaces may then be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
Supply Voltage:
1) Battery supply should never be disconnected with key switch turned ON.
Turn Key switch OFF before removing any cables from battery or any other
cables, harness, connectors for maintenance, cleaning, troubleshooting
etc.
Tech. - Note: When the key switch is turned ON, the OIL SW FAULT lights for a
few seconds and goes OFF if the oil pressure safety control is OK. The panel
immediately enters the scan mode. The PARAMETER LEDs light one by one at
an interval of 2 seconds, displaying the values of the respective parameters one
by one.
- The engine harness connector (19 pin) may be loose or not connected.
Turn the key switch OFF. Tighten the 19-pin engine harness connector
securely.
- Engine harness wire A OR L broken OR loose OR the lugs broken.
Repair the wire connections.
2. Engine does not CRANK, display fades while key switch is turned to
“START”
Tech. - Note: The engine panel draws relatively very small current when the Key
switch is turned on. However, when one attempts to start the engine, the starters
would draw a much higher current. If the batteries are weak, then the battery
voltage will drop to a very low value and the engine will not crank. If batteries are
so week as to drop below 10 VDC then the display will appear to fade.
Tech. – Note: The ECP has a built in mechanism which provides for the function
of auto-bypass for the low lub oil pressure safety control for 5 seconds OR until
the key switch is in “START” position.
If the oil pressure safety control is faulty i.e. STUCK OPEN OR the harness
connector is not secured in position at the safety control, then an attempt to
“START” will result in engine firing up but subsequently stopping in a few
seconds.
To check on these aspects, press the scan button and release it when the
PARAMETER LED corresponding to lub oil pressure lights. This will display the
lub oil pressure in continuous mode.
Turn the manual over-ride screw on the SD coil in, and start the engine to check
the time it takes for the engine to develop lub oil pressure. If the oil pressure
does not build up to more than 1 kg / cm2 in 5 seconds, AND/OR the oil pressure
remains lower than normal, check for leakages.
If lub oil pressure is OK, clean the safety control connector contacts, reconnect,
and try again.
