IL-NT RS232 is optional plug-in card to enable InteliLite
for computer or Modbus connectin. Card inserts into expansion slot back on the controller.
To insert the module, you must open the cover first (use screwdriver to open) and then insert the
module into slot. Once you have insert it, the module will snap under plastic teeth. It is supposed to be
installed permanently. Should you need to remove it, the safest way is to remove whole back cover
and than remove module manually.

6. Plug RS 232 communication module into the slot of the controller.
7. Put back the small cover.
:
Hint
When you insert RS 232 communication module, the boot jumper is hidden. For that reason we
recommend to use RS 232 communication module with the boot jumper placed on it. See pictures
below:

IL-NT AOUT8 gauge driver module
IL-NT AOUT8 is optional plug-in card. Through this card controller can drive up to 8 VDO style
industrial/automotive gauges. Gauge type and value are configured in LiteEdit software. Any analog
value from controller may be shown in that way.
To insert the module, you must open the cover first (use screwdriver to open) and then insert the
module into slot. Once you have insert it, the module will snap under plastic teeth. It is supposed to be
installed permanently. Should you need to remove it, the safest way is to remove whole back cover
and than remove module manually.
Installing IL-NT AOUT8 module is similar to installing RS 232 module. The difference is that after
installing IL-NT AOUT8 you do not put back the small cover.
IL-NT AOUT8 module:
IL-NT RD (SW) Remote display software
IL-NT RD (SW) is remote display software for a controller. Remote display provides the same control
and monitoring functions as controller itself. Remote display for IL-NT controllers uses standard IL-NT
controller with Remote display software. No further programing of the display is required – unit is self
configurable from the main controller. It is connected with the controller via RS232 line. Longer
distances (up to 1200m) are possible when RS232/RS485 converters are used. In the future will be
possible to use extension modules with RS485, specifically IL-NT-232-485 and IL-NT-ETH-485.
The IL-NT RD hardware version should fit to the master IL-NT, but it is also possible to use different
HW version for remote display and master controller, of course losing some features, which are not
present on the more simpler HW. For instance, if you use IL-NT AMF8 as a remote display for IL-NT
AMF25, you will miss the Horn button on AMF8. You can use IL-NT MRS4 as a remote display for
ILNT MRS16, but in case you would use IL-NT MRS3, you would miss the GCB control on MRS3.
:
Hint
The remote display software is supposed to be available in the second half-year of 2008.
Remote announciator IGL - RA15
The remote announciator IGL-RA15 can be connected to the IL-NT unit via CAN bus. Any of the
binary outputs can be configured (using LiteEdit software) to each LED diode on the RA15. The
module can be also enabled or disabled using LiteEdit software.
If IGL-RA15 remote announciator is not communicating with a controller via CAN bus, it activates a
warning.

IG IOM/PTM module
IG-IOM and IGS-PTM modules are I/O extension modules equipped with 8 binary inputs, 8 binary
outputs, 4 analogue inputs and one analogue output. The module can be used for AMF25, MRS15,
16, 19 only.
Binary inputs and outputs are configurable the same way like inputs and outputs on iL.
Analogue inputs are configurable like iL with the limitation that the binary and tristate mode
can not be used on PTM module.
The protection of analogue IOM/PTM inputs is activated by overcrossing the limits, active only
when the engine is running.
IG-IOM analogue inputs are resistive (the same parameters like IL-NT) 0 Ω-2,4 kΩ. The
module IOM is designed for especially VDO resistive sensors.
IGS-PTM analogue inputs are configurable by jumpers to ranges 0-250Ω, 0-100mV, 0-20mA.
The module can be used especially for Pt100 sensors and current sensors. The module PTM
is not suitable for VDO temperature sensor.

Getting Started
How to install
General
To ensure proper function:
Wiring for binary inputs and analog inputs must not be run with power cables.
Analog and binary inputs should use shielded cables, especially when length >3m.
Power supply
To ensure proper function:
Use min. power supply cable of 1.5mm
Maximum continuous DC power supply voltage is 36VDC. Maximum allowable power supply voltage
is 39VDC. The InteliLite’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.
:
Hint
The InteliLite controller should be grounded properly in order to protect against lighting strikes!!
The maximum allowable current through the controller’s negative terminal is 4A (this is dependent on
binary output load).
For the connections with 12VDC power supply, the InteliLite
the controller to continue operation during cranking if the battery voltage dip occurs. If the voltage
before dip is 10V, after 100ms the voltage recovers to 7 V, the controller continues operating. During
this voltage dip the controller screen backlight can turn off and on but the controller keeps operating.
It is possible to further support the controller by connecting the external capacitor and separating
diode:
2
NT
includes internal capacitors that allow
The capacitor size depends on required time. It shall be approximately thousands of microFarads.
The capacitor size should be
5 000 microFarad to withstand 150ms voltage dip under following conditions:
Voltage before dip is 12V, after 150ms the voltage recovers to min. allowed voltage, i.e. 8V.
:
Hint
Before the battery is discharged the message "Low BackupBatt" appears.
InteliLiteNT– AMF20/25, SW version 1.2, ©ComAp – March 2008 18
IL-NT-AMF-Reference Guide1.2.pdf
Or by connecting special I-LBA module:
Hint
:
I-LBA may not eliminate voltage drop when used with low temperature (-40°C) version of controller
and display heating element is on (below 5°C). Current drain of heating element exhausts LBA
capacitors very fast .
Power supply fusing
A one-amp fuse should be connected in-line with the battery positive terminal to the controller and
modules. These items should never be connected directly to the starting battery.
Fuse value and type depends on number of connected devices and wire length.
Recommended fuse (not fast) type - T1A. Not fast due to internal capacitors charging during
power up.
InteliLiteNT– AMF20/25, SW version 1.2, ©ComAp – March 2008 19
IL-NT-AMF-Reference Guide1.2.pdf
Binary output protections
Hint
Do not connect binary outputs directly to DC relays without protection diodes, even if they are not
connected directly to controller outputs.
Grounding
To ensure proper function:
Use as short as possible cable to the grounding point on the switchboard
Use cable min. 2,5mm
The “-“ terminal of the battery has to be properly grounded

Be aware of interference signal from Speed governor when one speed pick-up is used.
If engine will not start:
- Check ground connection from pick-up to controllers, eventually disconnect ground connection
to one of them
- Galvanically separate InteliLite RPM input using ComAp separation transformer RPM-ISO
(1:1)
- Use separate pick-up for Speed governor and InteliLite
NT
:
Hint
In some cases the controller will measure a RPM value even though the gen-set is not running:
RPM is measured from the generator voltage (Gear Teeth = 0)
IL-NT is measuring some voltage value on input terminals due to open fusing.
If RPM > 0 the controller will be put into a Not ready state and the engine will not be allowed to start.

Standard connection of three resistive sensors
to analog inputs.
Mixed connection of InteliLite analog inputs:
AI1 – binary input
AI2 – three state input
AI3 – analog resistive input
Analog inputs are designed for resistive sensors with resistance in range of 0
To ensure a proper function use shielded cables, especially for length over >3m.
Ω to 2,4kΩ.
As binary input
Open, close state are detected, threshold level is 750 Ω.
As three state input
Open, close and failure state are detected. Threshold level is 750 Ω, failure is detected when circuit
resistance is <10
Hint:
Protections on binary and three state inputs are following:
IL-NT: AI1 Shutdown IG-IOM: AI1 Shutdown
AI2 Shutdown AI2 Shutdown
AI3 Warning AI3 Shutdown
AI4 Shutdown

Example of analog input configuration
Configure Oil press input for measuring in Bar, VDO oil pressure sensor, range 0 to 10.0 bars. Alarm
protection level set to 3.5 bars, shut down level 1.2 bars.
Start LiteEdit and select – Controller - Configuration – Modify – Oil Press.
Set configuration for Oil Press analog input:
Type: selection between Not used and Alarm
“Not used” – analog input isn’t used
”Alarm” – analog input is used

Set to: Alarm
Config: selection between Analog, Binary Tri-state input.
“Analog” – resistor sensor is connected to Analog input.
“Binary” – open/close contact is connected between Analog input and COM terminal of Analog inputs.
Analog input detects only open/close state.
“Tri-state” – open/close contact is connected parallel to one of two serial resistors between Analog
input and COM terminal of Analog inputs.
Set to: Analog
Dim: Physical dimension of measured value (°C, %, Bar, ..) Maximal dimension length is three
characters.
Set to: Bar
Contact type: selection of polarity only when analog input is configured as Binary or Tri-state. When
is analog input configured as analog this setting has no sense.
„NC“ – polarity of binary or tri-state input
„NO“ – polarity of binary or tri-state input
Sensor: selection of sensor characteristic
„Unused input“ - when Analog input is not used. On the InteliLite screen is displayed „####“ value, no
alarm is detected.
„VDO 10 Bar“ – VDO pressure sensor
„VDO 40-120 °C“ – VDO temperature sensor
„VDO level %“ – VDO level sensor
Set to: VDO 10 Bar
Decimals: setting of number of decimal points of measured value.
„0“ - e.g. 360 kPa, 100%, 50
„1“ – e.g. 3.6 Bar
„2“- e.g. 0.36 MPa
„3“ - e.g. 0.366 MPa
Set to: 1
