VOLTAGE REGULATION
The electronic voltage regulator controls the output of the generator by regulating the current into the exciter field.
The regulator has six screwdriver adjustable potentiometers that may be adjusted for U/F dip, under frequency
protection (U/F), droop, stabilty, voltage, and trim. The voltage regulator on your unit is adjusted before shipment
from the factory. Contact Magnum Power Products LLC for additional information before attempting to adjust the
voltage regulator.
Note: For units equipped with a Marathon DVR2000E+ digital voltage regulator, please refer to the Marathon operating
manual provided with the unit.
CONTROL PANEL RECEPTACLES
The generator is equipped with five receptacles. The large receptacles are
240/120VAC twist-lock receptacles rated at 50A each. The smaller recepta-
cles are 120VAC duplex receptacles rated at 20A each with Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupt (GFCI) protection. These receptacles are not routed through
the main circuit breaker. Each receptacle has its own circuit breaker, located
directly above or next to the receptacle. Each breaker is sized to the maximum
rating of the corresponding receptacle.
Power to the receptacles is available any time the
generator is running, EVEN IF THE MAIN CIRCUIT
BREAKER IS “OFF/O”. MAKE SURE THAT ANY
EQUIPMENT CONNECTED TO THE RECEPTACLES
IS TURNED OFF BEFORE TURNING THE BREAKERS
ON. Make sure that the voltage selector switch is in the
proper position and that the output voltage is correct for
the equipment that is connected to the receptacles.
Improper voltage may cause equipment damage or
malfunction.
Note: When the voltage selector switch is in position for 480/277V 3Ø, voltage at the two GFCI duplex receptacles
is 139 volts and the voltage at the three twist-lock receptacles is 240/139 volts. When the shorting board is in position
for 208/120V 3Ø, voltage at the three twist-lock receptacles and the two GFCI receptacles is 208/120 volts.
DERATING FOR ALTITUDE
All units are subject to derating for altitude and temperature; this will reduce the available power for operating tools
and accessories connected to the receptacles. Typical reductions in performance are 2-4% for every 1000 ft. (305
m) of elevation and 1% per 10ºF (5.6ºC) increase in ambient air temperature over 72ºF (22ºC).
REMOTE START TERMINAL BLOCK
The remote start terminal block provides a connection for installation of a remote start
switch which will allow the unit to be started by a remote dry-contact closure switch.
For location of the remote start terminal block, refer to “Main Control Panel Features,
Standard” on page 14
Before entering Auto mode, verify that the contacts on any remote switch linked to the
unit are OPEN. If the contacts on a remote switch are closed, the engine will crank
and start when Auto mode is entered. Attach the switch leads to the two unused
terminals on the unit’s remote start terminal block. For additional information on, refer
to ““Auto” (Remote) Starting of the Generator” on page 28.
