1.1 INTRODUCTION
This new genset controller series consists of two products: Surf-AMF and Surf-Auto. The Surf-AMF monitors the
utility and controls the genset as well as the automatic transfer switch. The Surf-AUTO controls the genset only.
However, the two controllers share many common features. Physically, the Surf has a very attractive and slim
design. It features isolated measurement of the voltages and frequency on the two sources as well as the current
on the load side. It has four user-selectable operating modes: Off, Auto, Utility Only or Manual. Front panel
LEDs signal the installation status and operating mode. The user interface consists of an LCD display for the
measurements and faults. The front panel push buttons are provided to select the operating mode and to access
a menu of parameters. The menu gives access to all timers, set points and other parameters relevant to the
control and protection of the installation. The Surf series has a myriad of communication ports: CAN bus, Serial
RS232C, RS485 interface, USB type B, Ethernet and internet.
The SURF v1.3a features also a 4/8GB MicroSD card for data and event logging. Data and event retrieval is done
by either USB port or Internet through a dedicated website.
The firmware could be easily upgraded on site via the USB interface using a desktop application or any smart
phone with a free Android app.

3.2 PROGRAMMABLE INPUTS/OUTPUTS
3.2.1 PROGRAMMABLE INPUTS
SURF has a total of five digital inputs (Input 1 → 5) that could be programmed to any of these functions: Oil Pressure
Switch (Oil Press. SW), Engine Temperature Switch (Eng. Temp. SW), Oil Temperature Switch (Oil Temp. SW), Low
Fuel Level Normally Open (Lo Fuel SW-NO), Low Fuel Level Normally Closed (Lo Fuel SW-NC) , Lamp Test (Lamp Test)
and Engine Leakage (Engine Leak)1. Users can easily change the function of these inputs from the menu (parameters
I1 → I5). The user can also disable the input by setting the corresponding parameter to Not Assigned (Not Assigned).
• Preheat (Preheat) Function when one of the outputs is set to Preheat, the Preheat parameter in the menu
becomes visible and takes the default value 0. The preheat output is activated when the genset finishes counting the
fuel pump delay and remains on for a delay set by Preheat.
• Starter (Starter) Function is activated while cranking the genset and remains on for a delay set by Starter. The
minimum value of Starter is 1 sec if the oil pressure is bypassed otherwise the minimum value is the oil pressure bypass
delay plus one second (Bypass OPS+1).
• Electric Valve (Elec. Valve) Function if present should be defined at Output 2 since the dynamo excitation is
physically connected to this output. To configure the Electric Valve at another output, the dynamo input should be
connected to VBAT or the dynamo shutdown must be disabled (DynShutDown set to N) if dynamo excitation is not
required. Otherwise, the dynamo input should be externally excited.
• Utility Contactor (U-Contactor) Function if present should be defined at Output 3. This output is activated when
Utility engages the load and turns off when the load is released.
• Genset Contactor (G-Contactor) Function if present should be defined at Output 4. This output is activated when
the genset engages the load and turns off when the load is released.
• Alarm (Alarm) Function is activated when a genset fault occurs. This output is not activated on emergency stop
since it disables all outputs.
• Cut-Off (Cut-OFF) Function is activated when the genset should be shut down and it has finished cooling, when
a fault that does not require cooling has occurred and the load was released or when the SURF module is turned off
while the genset was on. When the cut-off output is activated, it will remain on until the delay set by Cut Off has
elapsed. If the SURF module was turned off, the module cannot be turned on until the cut-off delay has elapsed. The
parameter Cut Off is not visible in the menu unless this output is activated.
• Pre-alarm (Prealarm) Function is activated on a pre-alarm condition caused by the analog measurements oil
pressure/engine temperature dropping below/exceeding the pre-alarm level set in the parameters’ menu LOP Preal/
HET Preal.
• Genset Contactor 2 (G-Contactor 2) Function is activated five seconds after the first genset contactor is engaged
if the voltage and frequency readings are correct and there is no overload condition. If an overload occurs, this
contactor is disengaged first and the load is measured again, if the overload condition persists then the contactor G is
disengaged. Otherwise, Contactor G remains engaged. Contactor G2 re-engages when the load decreases.
• Dummy Load (Dummy Load) Function is activated when the load remains below the level specified by Dummyld
eng for a delay set by Dummyld del. This output is disengaged when the load current exceeds the level specified by
Dummyld dis. Parameters Dummyld eng, Dummyld del and Dummyld dis are not visible unless this output is
activated.

Depends on firmware version
• Overload (overload) Function is activated when the load exceeds the value set by overload and the module is
counting the overload delay set by overld del or if an overload fault occurs. The output will be turned off if the load
falls below oLd before the delay elapses.
• Start Fail (Start Fail) Function is activated when the genset fails to start. This output is turned off when the start
fail error is no longer present. The fault is removed when the Remote Control input is recycled or when Utility is
restored.
• Auto Mode (Auto Mode) Function is activated when the mode of operation is Auto. This output is turned off
when the mode of operation is changed from Auto.
• Manual/Stop Mode (Man. Stop) Function is activated when the mode of operation is Manual or Off. This output is
turned off when the mode of operation is changed from Manual and Off.
• Fuel Pump (Fuel Pump) Function is activated when the mode of operation is Manual or Off. This output is turned
off when the mode of operation is changed from Manual and Off.
• Fuel Warning (Fuel War.) Function is activated when a fuel theft or fuel end of filling event is detected. This
output is turned off when the fuel warning is reset.
• ATS Reset (ATS Reset) Function is activated from SNMP. This output is activated/de-activated from SNMP. Once
activated, this output remains On for 10 sec.
• Fuel Stop Solenoid (Fuel Stop Sol) Function2 is activated before cranking for a FSS preset time in sec .

5. COMMUNICATION PROTOCOLS
SURF supports communication with the electronic control unit (ECU) on the genset using the J1939 CAN Bus
protocol. Three different ECU types are supported: Standard Engine (STD ECU), Volvo Engine (VOLVO), Perkins
Engine (PERKINS) and Scania Engine (SCANIA). Parameter ECU type in the ECU submenu is used to select the
ECU type. If the genset does not contain an ECU, set this parameter to NO ECU. The SURF module reads the
following parameters from the CAN bus: oil pressure (PSI), engine coolant temperature ( oC), fuel consumption
(Liters/hour), engine speed (RPM), engine total hours of operation (Hr) and the engine total fuel consumption
(L).
Users can communicate with the SURF module by connecting it to a PC through USB Port, RS485 Serial Port
(Modbus) or Ethernet Port. When connecting from a PC.
To set up the SNMP communication, the following parameters must be set inside the ETHERNET submenu:
1. The DHCP Module (DHCP): If the network to which the SURF is being connected distributes IP
addresses automatically, then the DHCP Module on the SURF must be enabled (DHCP set to Y). If a
fixed IP should be assigned to the SURF, then DHCP should be set to N.
2. Network Configuration (IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway): If DHCP is set to No, the user must
specify to the SURF: the IP Address (IP Address), the Subnet Mask (Subnet Mask) and the Default
Gateway (Gateway).
3. The identification of the SURF module (SiteID): the SiteID is used by the SNMP module as a Community
name.
4. TRP1/TRP2 Enable Feature: If set to Yes, a trap packet is sent to a manager which IP address is
specified in TRP1IP/TRP2IP.2 managers can be informed. This trap packet is sent whenever a Fault
occurs on the SURF or when an attempt to connect to the SURF is detected with an erroneous
community name.

(for Utility) for a delay of OFreq del / UFreq del (for Utility). The Multifunction display indicates an over/under
frequency fault by displaying U-FX in the Utility Status page.
Overload Fault occurs when the load on the genset exceeds the value set by Overload for a delay set by Overld del.
The fault symbol ( ! ) turns on and the Multifunction display indicates an overload fault by displaying oVLoad in the
Genset Status page. Genset goes into cooling if HT/OVLD Cool is set to Y.
Tank Empty Fault occurs when the analog fuel level sensor reading goes below the Tank Empty value set by Tank
Empty in the menu. The Tank Empty symbol ( ) turns on and the Multifunction display shows Fault in the Genset
Status page.
UcShut occurs when the Genset shut down abnormally (SURF did not give shutdown order). The fault symbol ( ! )
turns on and the Multifunction display indicates an uncontrolled shut down fault by displaying UcShut in the Genset
Status page.
EngineLeakage10 occurs when the Input “EngineLeak” become active. The fault symbol ( ! ) turns on and the
Multifunction display indicates an Engine Leakage fault by displaying EngineLeakage in the Genset Status page.
ETSDisconnected occurs when the ETS Sensor Reading is “---” for 5 min and the ETS Alarm is not set to “N”. The fault
symbol ( ) turns on and the Multifunction display indicates an ETS Disconnection fault by displaying ETS
Disconnected in the Genset Status page.

6.4. LOGS
SURF has a Fault Log that can save the last 15 faults (last 100 faults are saved if optional SD card is installed) that
occurred on the genset. The Fault Log saves the type of error that occurred along with the voltages, frequency,
currents, oil pressure, engine temperature, battery voltage, hour meter, L/H, L, KW and KWHr. The Fault Log can
be accessed and erased through the SURF menu or remotely through the different communication protocols
supported.
