Pre-Start
If desired, cranking can be delayed after initiating engine startup. During this delay, the Pre-Start output
closes to energize glow plugs or pre-start lubrication pumps. The Pre-crank Delay setting accepts values
from 0 to 30, in increments of 1 second.
The Pre-Start output can be configured to open upon conclusion of engine cranking or remain closed
while the engine is running.
The Pre-Start output can be configured during the resting state. If Preheat Before Crank is selected, the
Pre-Start output is closed for the duration of the Pre-crank Delay time prior to re-entering the cranking
state. If the Pre-crank delay setting is longer than the rest interval, the Pre-Start output is closed for the
entire duration of the rest time.
Restart
Attempting to start an engine after a normal shutdown but before the engine RPM has settled to zero can
stress an engine in certain situations. The Restart Delay inhibits attempts to start the engine immediately
after a normal shutdown for the duration of the Restart Delay timer. This delay should allow an engine to
