I've been fighting with the gauges and transducer, so I took another approach. I added digital gauges to each leg. Works great. Also I modded the power box I have for a civy 50a outlet.
Next step is the hvac system.
Yeah I'll get pics of it today. I'm guessing you can command a little more clout when it comes to email, that'd be great if you could. I'll also post pics of the controller settings.
Yeah, the controller seems to run fine now that I dialed in the gain and stability. It's dark now, but I'll get the pointers tomorrow in daylight.
Do you have any wiring drawings for my unit's HVAC setup? I've got four wires (smaller) unplugged in the control box. Not sure what's going on...
After a bit of testing, we determined the transducer was inop, I bought another one, hope to see it soon. (And I hope it works!) Used a bottle to replace the puke tank that was busted. Topped off the coolant. Got the controller dialed in and holding the generator much better. Flipping the...
It's alive! I had already ordered a ESD5221 controller, it ended up working, just has extra functions I'm not using. A cheaper controller could be used. It wasn't running that well at first, lots of raw fuel out the exhaust. But that cleared up afterwards. Also I had to adjust the speed...
Thank you sir! I sent you a PM.
I've got the SE350 regulator installed. The Watt Transducer came in today as well. I haven't had time to wire that in. I have also gotten notice that the generator controller is stateside as well. Hopefully by the end of the week I'll have things wired up...
A little more info found. The generator head on this unit is a Marathon unit. The model number is 282PSL1505. In this application it appears that it's wired into a low wye configuration. But it can be rewired to single phase. At least that's an option if the HVAC is inop to use all 20kw...
Ok, after a little bit of reading I bought a M100-WA5 transducer. With a little time I think I've sorted the pinouts of the wiring I have to it.

I actually gave HDT a call yesterday and they gave me a cell phone for someone. I left a message yesterday but haven't heard back yet. Dunno how inclined they'll be to giving over the TM to it, or let alone part numbers for it. Is there any chance you could pop open your generator and take...
I doubt they'd be able to help, they only made the generator head used. I've been trying to read up a little more though. I *think* a lot of this is off the shelf kind of parts. It looks like the generator controller is mainly there for overspeed and shutdown situations. I've found a few...
I just picked up a ECU from CARNAC at the rally. Does anyone have a TM for it? It appears to be missing a few things that I'm also looking for.
Here's the info from the placard:
Mfg Date: Sept 1997
FSCM: 05NF7
