2 System Overview
2.1 General description
NT
The InteliNano Plus is an Automatic Mains Fail or Manual Remote Start controller for single
NT
generating sets operating in stand-by mode or as a prime mover. The InteliNano supports electronic
engines.
NT
InteliNano controllers are equipped with an intuitive graphic display, which together with extensive
functionality set the new standard in gen-set controls.
NT
The InteliNano Plus can automatically starts the gen-set, opens the MCB and closes the GCB upon
mains failure. When the mains is restored, the controller automatically opens the GCB, closes the
MCB, and stops the engine. This controller can also work as a controller for prime mover systems.
NT
InteliNano Plus supports diesel and gasoline engines.
NT
The key features of InteliNano are easy installation and intuitive operation. Users may choose
between predefined configurations for typical applications and user-defined configurations for special
applications.

2.2 Configurability
One of the key features of the controller is high level of adaptability to the needs of every particular
application. This customization is accomplished in the configuration.

NOTE:
Use NanoEdit PC software to the read configuration from the controller or disk, view it, modify it, and
write the configuration to the controller or disk.

The firmware contains large number of binary inputs and outputs for all available. Configuration will
be determined by application and hardware constraints. One of main tasks of the configuration is
mapping of "logical" firmware inputs and outputs to the "physical" hardware input and output terminals.

A complete configuration consists of the following:

1. Mapping of logical binary and analog inputs (functions) to physical binary input terminals
2. Mapping of logical binary outputs (functions) to physical binary output terminals
3. Assigning sensor characteristics
4. Selecting of ECU type if an ECU is connected

The controller is delivered with a default configuration, which should fit most standard
applications. The default configuration can be changed from controller’s front panel or by using
NanoEdit PC software. See NanoEdit documentation for details.

NOTE:
For connection with PC use integrated USB module. The controller can be powered directly from USB
communication port. In this case the LCD backlight is turned off and all outputs are open

Once the configuration is modified (using PC) it can be stored in a file for reference or use with
another controller. This configuration file is called the archive and has file extension ".ain". If the
archive is saved while the PC is online with the controller, it will contain a full image (setpoints,
measured values, and history log) of the controller at the moment of saving (except firmware).

The archive can then be used for the cloning of controllers, which means preparing controllers with
identical configuration and settings.

 3.3 True RMS measurement
This controller measures AC values based on True RMS principle. This principle corresponds exactly
to the physical definition of alternating voltage effective values. Under normal circumstances the mains
voltage should have a pure sinusoidal waveform. However some nonlinear elements connected to the
mains produce harmonic waveforms with frequencies of multiplies of the basic mains frequency and
this may result in deformation of the voltage waveforms. The True RMS measurement gives accurate
readings of effective values not only for pure sinusoidal waveforms, but also for deformed waveforms.

 4.4 Power supply
To ensure proper function:
2
It is strictly recommended to use power supply cable 2,5mm !
NT
Maximum continuous DC power supply voltage is 36 VDC. The InteliNano ’s power supply terminals
are protected against large pulse power disturbances. When there is a potential risk of the controller
being subjected to conditions outside its capabilities, an outside protection devise should be used.
NT
For the connections with 12VDC power supply, the InteliNano includes internal capacitors that allow
the controller to continue operation during cranking if the battery voltage dip occurs. If the voltage
before drop is 10V, after 100ms the voltage recovers to 5 V, the controller continues operating.

 7.1 Normally Open Contact
Normally Open Contact represents a standard opened contact – no voltage on output terminal and no
passing current from/to binary input terminal. When the contact is opened the controller reads logical 0
(L) on the binary input. When contact is closed the controller reads a logical 1 (H).

In this case 0V on the binary output represents a logical 0 (L) Battery positive voltage on the output
represents a logical 1 (H).

Normally Open Contact – output

Normally Open Contact – input button

7.2 Normally Closed Contact

Normally Closed Contact (inverted) represents a closed contact – positive voltage on output terminal
or passing current from/to binary input terminal. When the contact is opened the controller reads
logical 1 (H) on the binary input. When the contact is closed the controller reads a logical 0 (L).

In this case 0V on binary output represents a logical 1 (H). Battery positive voltage on the output
represents a logical 0 (L).

The Remote Start/stop can be configured only on terminal T11 This is also used for waking the
controller from “Zero Power” mode.

I03 Remote Start And Load

9.2.2
The Remote Start And Load input can be used only when the controller is in Auto mode.

In AMF mode this input starts the engine and transfers the load to the generator after all engine and
generator parameters are within tolerance (open MCB and close GCB). When this input is
deactivated the controller will transfer the load back to mains and stop the engine.

In MRS mode this input starts engine and closes the GCB (only when is configured). When this input
is deactivated the controller will open the breaker (only when is configured) and stop the engine.

NOTE:
The Remote Start And Load can be configured only on terminal T11. This is also used for waking

 12.3.5 Inactive confirmed shutdown
O04 Alarm output is opened. It is possible to start engine when all shutdowns are inactive and
confirmed.

Figure 12.9
INACTIVE CONFIRMED SHUTDOWN – EMERGENCY STOP

12.3.6 Possible shutdown alarms

Emergency Stop
The binary input Emergency Stop was activated.

Overspeed
The protection comes active if the speed is greater than 115% of nominal engine
RPM, which is derived from generator frequency.

Underspeed
Low engine RPM. This alarm will be issued when the gen-set is running and then
stops by itself, i.e. the RPM drops under the nominal engine RPM.
The underspeed alarm starts to be evaluated 5 sec after successful gen-set start and
is being evaluated all the time the Fuel Solenoid is on.

Low Oil Pressure

Engine will stop when oil pressure declined to or less than 1 bar or binary input I22
Low Oil Pressure is active.

High Coolant temperature

Engine will stop when temperature of coolant exceed Coolant Temperature Shutdown
threshold.

External Shutdown 1

External Shutdown 2
