That would be great. if you can make an ISO image of the disk would make this nice and easy.

I ended up pulling the contractor and found major arc damage on the left most contact load side. Replaced the contractor plates and lubricated the selinoid. Now works pretty. Still slow to close when cold ( less than 70f ) but once it has cycled a few times it is fine. Used 3 in one light...

Had some nice weather today went out and checked the toggle switch, it tests ok. The K1 looks easy enough to get at, all the control leads are close to the case no easy way to get a meter in to them. with out taking it out of the set completely. I have played with it now, and it appears to only...

Here are photos of the wiring out of alternator and drawings , To cold for me to put my hands on the wire going to the control box

in MMR i had the nice big cavernous hot (100+ F) engine room, and a nice large library with every schematic i needed... and things all in the books, i was just used to working on bigger systems these little guys you cant climb inside to trace stuff :) checking piston rod involved opening a...

that would be great thanks

if there is no logic check (IE freq good, volt in range) then basically it is just repeatedly trying the breaker close toggle switch (3 position on the control board) UP to close, neutral , Down to Open It will always open on first try, just not close the reaction time varies, i can hold the...

the unit looks solid, the IT guy in me wants to make sure i have what i need to fix the computer just incase.... I am using the unit as a backup for my home and home office. So far quite impressed with it.

I just have not ventured outside -10 air temp right now :) the diagrams i have been looking at indicate it comes from the BCT. I wanted to note that even though the CIM indicates a draw i was not seeing the effects of one, hence i think it is in the monitoring components. I am going to try...

They are on the wiring diagram I am not having a problem with draw down just the gauge shows a draw on the battery when none is present. i can start the unit up no problem, let it run for a little bit and shut it down. been doing it weekly for a few weeks and it has not given me trouble.

I cant find a fuse just the 50 amp breaker (CB1) connected directly to the output of the alternator the wire to the 50 amp breaker passes through the current transformer before going to CB1, Right after CB1 is the branch to the control box, then down to the batteries.

The question then is what to check to find out why it takes so long, some kind of logic check, bad switch?

Anybody out on the interwebs lucky enough to have a copy of the restore CD for the CIM on the 805B? Want to get a copy of it for a backup incase something happens to the unit Thanks

Quick note, in multiple runs the issue still presents it self but i have not had to charge the battery, my guess is a sensor is miss-wired showing a negative draw on the battery when it should be positive that or the field in the CIM is mislabeled and that should read alternator current draw...

Hi, another question on my 805b my assumption is it is it slow to close, i let the unit run for 5 mins no load, then go to close the output breaker, pushing the toggle to close and nothing happens for 3 - 5 mins adjusting the frequency and/or voltages do not make a difference holding the switch...
