easYgen-3000
Genset Control for
Multiple Unit Operation

The easYgen-3000 is a control unit for genset management applications. The numerous inputs and outputs,
along with a modular software structure, permit you to use the easYgen-3000 for a wide range of applications
with only a single part number. This includes stand-by, AMF, peak shaving, import-export, cogeneration or
distributed generation, among others. Also the easYgen-3000 is compatible for island, island parallel, mains
parallel and multiple unit mains parallel operations.
The easYgen-3000 is able to control up to 32 gensets connected in a network with automatic sequencing.
The easYgen-3000 is available in two variants, the easYgen-3100 for cabinet back panel installation, and the
easYgen-3200 with graphical display and soft keys for front panel mounting.
FlexAppTM – This feature provides the tools to easily configure the number of operated breakers: None, GCB,
GCB and MCB.
LogicsManagerTM – Woodward's LogicsManager software enables to change the operation sequences and
adapt them to specific needs. The LogicsManager accomplishes this by monitoring a range of measuring val
ues and internal states, which are combined logically with Boolean operators and programmable timers. This
enables to create and/or modify control and relay functions.
FlexInTM – The analog inputs are configurable to operate with VDO, resistive, and/or 0 to 20 mA senders.
Flexible Outputs – Speed and voltage bias outputs are configurable to function with all speed governors and
voltage regulators. The outputs can also be used as freely scalable outputs (e.g. for driving external meters).
FlexCANTM – Advanced network interfaces ensure unsurpassed control performance – from engine control up
to total plant operation. The easYgen-3000 is capable of working with all common industrial interfaces, includ
ing CAN, RS-232. and RS-485. The multiple communication protocols permit the easYgen-3000 to communi
cate with a vast majority of engine control units (ECUs), external I/O boards, PLCs, and modems. CANopen,
J1939. Modbus RTU, and Modem protocols are supported.
DynamicsLCDTM – The adaptive and interactive 5.7", 320x240 pixel graphical LC display with soft keys and a
clear menu structure ensures intuitive user operation and navigation.
