Configuration Manual - 200E Series Page 2
Overview of the 200
series
The drawing below shows a typical
layout.
DCU 210 E E n gin e P anel
The DCU 210E engine panel is the
main building block in the 200 Series.
Engine sensor values are displayed on
the color touch screen, and commands
and other user interaction is also here.
DCU 208 E En gin e P a nel
The DCU 208E is basically the same as
the DCU 210E, but without the color
touch screen.
It saves cost being used in smaller
engine rooms, where a remote panel is
all that is needed.
Con figu rat i on
An ordinary PC web-browser is used
to configure the DCU, using the inbuilt
web-server on the DCU.
RP 2 10E /22 0E Remo te P ane l
The optional RP remote panel brings
everything on the DCU to a remote
location, with the exact same user
interface. It does not need any
configuration, as it is reading the
configuration from the DCU.
As such, the RP can easily be
retrofitted.
The RP also supports one IP-camera to
be installed on the network.
Configuration Manual - 200E Series Page 3
Eth e rne t S w itc h
The Ethernet switch is not necessary if
only one DCU 210E and one RP
210E/220E is in use. These can then
be wired with an Ethernet cable
directly.
It is recommended to make use of an
Ethernet switch though, as it simplifies
PC configuration connection and
future expansion to remote panels
and/or camera interface.
Exp a nsi on
The basic system can be expanded
with more input and output channels
using the versatile RIO units (
Remote
I/O).
Currently, there are RIO units for
General I/O expansion, RIO 410
and RIO 210.
Exhaust temperature
monitoring, RIO 412
Generator monitoring, RIO 425
Load sharing, LSU 408
Configuration Manual - 200E Series Page 4
First Power-On
Pre para tio ns
First, make sure to consult the Quick
Installation Guide (QIG) that came with
the panel.
Installation
Install the panel according to
guidelines in the Installation manual.
Connections
Connect power to the panel according
to guidelines in the Installation
manual.
Fir st P ower -On Wi zar d
The DCU (not DCU 208E) will display
the
first power-on wizard
at the first
power up after delivery, or after a
factory reset of the panel.
All wizard settings can be changed
later.
Configuration Manual - 200E Series Page 5
Configuration
This section explains the configuration
of the DCU.
Configuration- and
Firmware files
The DCU may be configured either
using the built in web server, or by
inserting a USB memory stick with a
predefined configuration file.
DCU Web Ser ver Co n fig urat ion
Int erfa ce
The panel has a built in web server,
offering access to full configuration.
USB mem ory wi t h C onf i gur atio n
fil e
Insert a USB memory with the
configuration file(s) and follow the
guidelines appearing on the panel
screen.
Valid filename characters
a-z
A-Z
0-9
“_” (underscore)
“-“ (hyphen)
If other characters are being used,
then the panel may not “see” it.
Rename the configuration file to solve
the issue.
When the USB memory is inserted, the
panel asks for the administration
password (4 digits).
The panel then lists the configuration
file(s) available on the USB memory.
Select file(s) then select
COPY to copy
these files into the User Files area in
the panel. Note that this does not
activate the file; it is merely a copy of
the file into the panel.
Select a file, and then select
USE to
copy and activate this configuration
file.
Note! The DCU 208E does not have a
screen interface and hence this
method does not work on that unit.
USB memory with Firmware
file
A USB memory stick can be used to
install a new firmware in the DCU.
Note! If the memory unit has firmware
for both the DCU and the RP, and the
intention is to upgrade both panels,
then make sure to upgrade the RP
firmware first!
Con nect ing to t he D CU
It is possible to connect a laptop to the
DCU either directly or through a LAN
(Local Area Network).
Note! For use in an existing Ethernet
network, check the configuration of
the LAN with the LAN manager.
To connect to the DCU
Connect an Ethernet cable between the
laptop and the DCU port Ethernet port.
Configuration Manual - 200E Series Page 6
In the DCU menu, select Help –
Version Information. Note the IP
address. From factory, the IP

Fur th er con n ect ion set tin g s
Change the IP address of the
DCU
If necessary, the IP address of the DCU
can easily be changed.
Note! The last digit in the IP address
becomes the engine number.
The DCU has a fixed IP address that is
set during the first power-on set up.
The IP address may also be changed
later, in the DCU panel menu here:
Menu – Settings –
Administration – Network
Configuration
IP address convention
The factory default IP address of the
DCU is 192.168.0.101. The first three
groups must be the same for all
components in the LAN, for instance
192.168.0.x, where x is the other unit
in the LAN.
Note! The x-number must be unique
within the LAN. Also, the two last
digits in x will represent the engine
number.
Example: A DCU with the IP address
192.168.0.104 will be named “Engine
#4”.
Factory defaults for the DCU
Factory defaults are valid at initial
startup only.
IP address: 192.168.0.101
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1
The IP address configuration will not
be kept, if a Factory Reset operation is
performed.
DHCP IP addresses range: 101 – 199
within the subnet defined by the DCUs
IP address.

I/O Configuration
The I/O section is found under:
Home DCU I/O Configuration.
It has menu items for flexible I/O,
input and output signals. These are
separated into three sections.
Note! Always remember to press the
Submit button after each change on
the configuration pages. No changes
are saved until this button is pressed!
Fle x ibl e I / O
This is where the Flexible I/O channels
are defined. Each channel can be used
for a variety of input and output
functions, such as:
24VDC Supply
0VDC
Switch Input
Configurable Output
4-20mA sensor
Voltage sensor
5V (#6)
J1939#2 (#20 and #21)
Note! Making changes to the flexible
I/O configuration may result in
damage to sensors connected to the
panel. It is recommended to
disconnect all sensors from the panel
before making changes.
After a flexible I/O channel has been
defined it will appear in the respective
menu as enabled.
Eg. Connector C1P1 has been defined
as a “4-20mA” channel in the Flexible
I/O section. It will now be available in
DCU Config Inputs 4-20mA.
Con fig Inp uts
This is where the I/O input channels
are configured, such as 4-20mA,
PT100 and switch inputs.
Engine Speed
This is where engine speed sensors
are configured, and the overspeed
setpoint is set. The majority of the
configuration is synchronized with
SDU.
Note! This section is central to any
installation. It provides the DCU with
data required to form an exact and
reliable reading of the engine speed.
HomeDCUI/O ConfigurationEngine Speed
Configuration Manual - 200E Series
Page 11
Source
The Engine Speed is constructed by
reading data from up to three sources
simultaneously. These three sources
are prioritized by the DCU. As long as
the RPM Primary Source is functional,
it is used to form the actual Engine
Speed. Should the RPM Primary Source
fail, the DCU uses the RPM Secondary
Source if available. Finally, the RPM
Third Source is used only when both
Primary and Secondary fails.
Each of the RPM Sources can be
configured to receive data from a
number of possible sensors.

General Configuration
RPM Rounding rounds off the
displayed value to nearest 1, 5 or 10
RPM.
RPM Setpoint is the RPM at which the
DCU indicates the engine is running,
and disconnects the cranker.
RPM Setpoint 2-5 are optional
setpoints that can be used in
conjunction with other sensors.
RPM Ready to take Load is a signal
that can be configured to an output. It
activates when that RPM is reached. It
deactivates when a stop command is
given, OR the speed drops below the
threshold, minus 15%.
RPM Nominal Speed is the engines
nominal speed, and is used to lower
the RPM Overspeed on the Overspeed
test to 95 % of the nominal speed.
General
Channel Use is the selection for where
the signal shall be displayed.
Select

Display
These values define how the
instrument widget is presented.
Display Range Min is the minimum
value displayed, normally 0 (zero).
Configuration Manual - 200E Series
Page 12
Display Range Max is the maximum
value displayed. For an engine running
at 1500 rpm nominally, a typical
maximum setting would be 1800 RPM.
Display Major Divider is where the
instrument widget writes an RPM
value, normally every 500 RPM.
Display Minor Divider is the tickmarks
between the major divider marks,
normally every 100 RPM.
Display Multiplier is the multiplier
value. The value is printed in the RPM
meter.
Overspeed
RPM Overspeed is the setpoint where
the DCU indicates overspeed.
RPM Overspeed Delay is the delay – in
milliseconds – before alarm or
shutdown. Typical setpoint is 100ms.
RPM Overspeed Shutdown Enabled is
where the overspeed behavior is
selected. Select
Yes for the DCU to
shut down the engine. Select
No to
disable overspeed shutdown.
Individual Speed Sensors
Note that
any
speed signal can be
connected here, and that this is

If the requires above is set Yes, set the
persistence time after the engine is
running until the channel is enabled.
This field is only available if all
requires that is selected are fulfilled.
Use as Additional Run
If the DCU has one pickup source only,
we recommend adding an engine oil
pressure switch as an engine running
indication.
Note! Do not use any other pressure
sensors – or any other signals – as
engine running
indication!
If two engine speed (pickup)
sources1 are in use, then we
recommend leaving this off for
all switches, i.e. set to No.

If one engine speed source only
is in use, then locate the engine
low oil pressure switch and use
this as the Additional Run
signal. Set to Yes.

highlights important configurations.
Ala rm C onf igur atio n
Configure how the SAE J1939 CANbus
acts alarming wise.
J1939 CANbus broken wire
alarm when engine not running
Some engines electronic control
modules (ECM) stops sending CAN
traffic when the engine is not running
or when stopping a running engine.
To avoid nuisance alarms in these
situations, set this setting to
No.
J1939 CANbus Red Lamp
Severity

Enabled
Select if the ECM Amber Lamp shall
indicate with a Warning or be disabled.
Cou nter s
The DCU calculates and stores engine
running hours.
Counter Source
Set the counter source to be either
from the J1939 CANbus, or from a
locally generated counter in the DCU.
Typically, on an electronic
engine this shall be set to
J1939.
Likewise, if there is no CANbus
on the engine, this setting must
be Local for the counters to
work.
Update Local Engine Hours
This updates the local counter to any
new value.
Note! This only works when the
Counter Source is Local. If the Counter
Source is J1939, the DCU counter
setting will be overwritten by new
values coming on the CANbus.
Fuel Consumption
The DCU can calculate
approximate
fuel consumption values.
The values must be completed from
the engine datasheet.
The signal is then to be configured
