Passwords

Password for access to the genset controller by the Hybrid ControllerThe Hybrid Controller and communication processor of the IB-COM of a genset controller of the ComAp InteliGenNTC or ComAp InteliSys NTC series are communicating with each other via Modbus/TCP. For this communicationprocess, a shared password is necessary. The following requirements must be fulfilled when choosing a sharedpassword:



• The password must not exceed a maximum length of 16 bit.• The password must be preset in the genset controller.• The password settings must be adopted for the parameter ComAp access code of the Hybrid Controller.

Administrator password for write access to parameters of the genset controller by the Hybrid ControllerAn administrator password is necessary for write access to parameters of the genset controller by theHybrid Controller. The following requirements must be fulfilled when choosing an administrator password:

• The administrator password must not exceed a maximum length of 16 bit.• The administrator password must be preset in the genset controller.• The administrator password settings must be adopted for the parameter ComAp admin password of the

Hybrid Controller.

Assignment of the input signal ExtValue1 to the internal signal DynSpinResReqFor the remote start request by the Hybrid Controller and for the dynamic reserve power request of the PV power plant,genset controllers of the ComAp InteliGen NTC or ComAp InteliSys NTC series must be equipped with the ComApIGS-NT-Hybrid firmware. In addition, the requirements from the following table must be met.

Remote start request via Hybrid Controller The input signal ExtValue2 can be transferred to the in-ternal signal Sys start/stop. System-specific require-ments must be taken into account. This signal transfermust be set in the genset controller.

Dynamic reserve power requirement of PV power plant The input signal ExtValue1 must be transferred to the in-ternal signal DynSpinResReq. This signal transfer mustbe set in the genset controller. Depending on assembly ofthe hybrid system, the following variants must be se-lected:

• Signal transfer from Hybrid Controller to all gensetcontrollersThe Hybrid Controller transfers the ExtValue1signal to all genset controllers in the hybrid system.This variant is recommended since, in the event of agenset controller failure, all other genset controllersremain unaffected. The transmission of theExtValue1 input signal to the internalDynSpinResReq signal must be set on every gensetcontroller.

• Signal transfer from Hybrid Controller to 1 gensetcontrollerThe Hybrid Controller transfers the ExtValue1signal to 1 genset controller in the hybrid system.With this genset controller, the transmission of theExtValue1 input signal to the internalDynSpinResReq signal and the forwarding of theinternal DynSpinResReq signal to all other gensetcontrollers must be set.



Function "Password Break Protection"For write access to parameters of the genset controller by the Hybrid Controller, the "Password Break Protection"function must be disabled.

4.3.2 Settings on DSE8610 Genset Controllers or DSE8610 MKIIObserving manufacturer documentation of genset controllerWhen using a genset controller with the Hybrid Controller, the following settings must be made on the gensetcontroller.
