9287500995 Rev B 31
Preliminary Setup
Before starting the generator and BE2000E for the first time, proceed as follows.
Warning!
Use caution when working around the rear of the BE2000E.
Dangerous voltage levels are present at the exposed heatsinks when
the unit is energized.
1. Tag and disconnect all wiring to the BE2000E. Be sure to insulate the wire terminals to prevent a short.
2. Start the prime mover and perform all engine governor adjustments.
3. After all initial governor adjustments have been made, shut down the prime mover.
4. Connect only the power input terminals of the BE2000E to an auxiliary power source in the specified
power input range. An ICRM (Inrush Current Reduction Module) may be required.
5. Perform all initial BE2000E settings by using the front panel HMI, connecting a handheld operating with
BESTCOMS
™-BE2000E software, or connecting a PC operating with BESTCOMS-BE2000E to the rear
communications port of the BE2000E.
6. Connect the rest of the BE2000E leads using the tagged identification.
7. Start the prime mover/generator and perform the final adjustments at rated speed and load.
8. After the initial startup, the BE2000E should not require any further adjustments unless there is a
change in the system.
Adjustments
All adjustments are made using external switching, the front panel HMI or with BE2000E software via the
rear panel communication port. See the BESTCOMS Software chapter for more information about making
adjustments with BESTCOMS-BE2000E.
Storage
This device contains long-life aluminum electrolytic capacitors. For devices that are not in service (spares
in storage), the life of these capacitors can be maximized by energizing the device for 30 minutes once
per year.
