Introduction
Diesel engine fire pump controllers are designed to automatically start a diesel engine driven fire pump upon
detection of a pressure drop in the fire protection system. A diesel engine fire pump controller provides automatic
& manual starting and stopping. An automatic start is controlled by a pressure transducer or by remote automatic
devices such as a deluge valve. A manual start is controlled by remote manual button or by controller pushbutton.
The automatic shutdown option provides a 30-minutes automatic stop after automatic start once all starting
causes have returned to normal. The diesel engine fire pump controller includes two battery chargers to ensure
the engine batteries are continuously charged.
Types of Diesel Engine Fire Pump Controllers
FIRE PUMP CATALOG NUMBER
MODEL N° EXAMPLE: GPD-12-120
Model Prefix: GPD, GPDFM
Battery Voltage: 12=12v, 24=24v
Incoming Voltage: 120=110/120V 50/60Hz, 220=208/240V 50/60Hz
Methods of starting/stopping
The controllers are available as combination automatic / non-automatic with provision for manual or automatic
shutdown (automatic shutdown only possible after automatic start).
METHODS OF STARTING
AUTOMATIC START
The controller will start automatically on low pressure detection by the pressure sensor when the pressure drops
below the cut-in threshold.
MANUAL START
The engine can be started by pressing the CRANK 1 or and/or CRANK 2 push button, regardless of the system
pressure, when the Main Selector switch is in the HAND position. The Fuel Solenoid Valve will open as soon as a
CRANK button is pressed and will remain in this state.
REMOTE MANUAL START
The engine can be started from a remote location by momentarily closing a contact of a manual push button.
REMOTE AUTOMATIC START, DELUGE VALVE START
The engine can be started from a remote location by momentarily opening a contact connected to an automatic
device. The controller must be in automatic mode.
SEQUENTIAL START
In case of a multiple pump application, it may be necessary to delay the starting of each motor when there is a
water pressure drop to prevent simultaneous starting of all motors.
FLOW START, HIGH ZONE START
The controller can be started by opening/closing a contact on the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input.
WEEKLY START
The engine can be started (and stopped) automatically at the preprogrammed time.
TEST START
The motor can be started automatically for a preprogrammed time by pressing the run test button.
METHODS OF STOPPING
MANUAL STOP
Manual stop is done by pressing the STOP push button. Note that pressing the stop push button will stop the
engine only if all starting causes have disappeared.
AUTOMATIC STOP
The automatic stop is possible only after an automatic start and this function has been activated. When this
function is Enabled, the motor is automatically stopped 30 minutes (adjustable) after the restoration of the
pressure (above the cut-out threshold) given that no other run cause is present.
FLOW STOP, HIGH ZONE STOP
If the controller has been started by the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input and the signal has returned to normal,
the motor will be stopped given that no other run cause is present.
EMERGENCY STOP
The emergency stop is always possible in any running condition and is done by positioning the main selector
-switch to the OFF position.
Installation

C- Displays the date, time and exterior temperature.
D- The battery charger state: It may become one of three colors and also explicitly describes the current battery
charger state.
POWER UP – Green
BULK* – Green
OVER_CHARGE – Green
FLOAT – Green
CHARGER_FAIL – Red
NO_AC – Grey
BOOST_FAULT- Red
*The Bulk charging mode enables the boost function on the charger, allowing highier voltage that shorten the
charging time of the battery.
E- AC status: Red when there is a failure and green otherwise.
F- Amp meter: Displays the actual current between the charger and the battery in amps.
G- The battery: The battery will be red if it is in failure and green otherwise. The data shows the actual voltage of
the battery and the charger in volts.
H- Starter contactor: Grey when non active (open) and green when they are activated (closed) during a crank.
I- Starter state window: This window only appears during a cranking cycle. The counter inside indicates the step
timer, ranging from 15 to 0 seconds. As there are two cranking modes, “waiting for crank” and “cranking”, two
symbols will alternate: a gear during cranking mode and an hourglass during the waiting mode.
J- The starter gear: Grey when non active and green when activated during cranking.
K- The diesel engine: It will be grey if the engine is stopped, green if an “Engine Run” signal is detected and red if a
“Fail to start” occurred, after 6 unsuccessful cranking attempts. Inside the engine two major alarms are represented;
the “low oil pressure” alarm and the “engine high temperature” alarm. These alarms will stop the engine only if it is
running in test mode. When active, the appropriate alarm symbol will turn red.
L- Fuel solenoid valve: This valve controls the flow of fuel to the engine. When the fuel solenoid is activated, the
valve will be horizontal, green and the yellow representation of the fuel will flow through the entire pipe. When the
“Stop Solenoid valve” is activated, the valve will rotate vertically, become red and the yellow representation of the
fuel will stop at the valve, indicating that the fuel does not flow through anymore.
M- Motor starting or stopping cause: A grey box will indicate the reason why the motor is running.
Starting reasons:
LOCAL: This start cause is triggered if the engine is locally started directly from its own control panel and the option
is Enabled.
MANUAL: The controler receives a manual crank request from one or both of the manual crank membrane buttons
while the selector switch is the “HAND” position.
REMOTE MANUAL: Manual engine starting is activated by a remote start contact.
DELUGE: Automatic engine starting is activated by a deluge valve.
AUTO: Automatic engine starting is activated by pressure drop.
REMOTE AUTO: Automatic motor starting is activated by remote equipment
23
FLOW: Automatic motor starting is activated by a signal in the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input.
HIGH ZONE: Automatic motor starting is activated by a signal in the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input.
WEEK TEST: Automatic motor starting is activated by a scheduled test.
MANUAL TEST: Automatic motor starting is activated by the run test pushbutton.
AC FAIL: AC Fail will count the time following an AC Failure and at the end of a predetermined time, will start the
engine with an AC FAIL request.
A red rectangular box will indicate the reason why the engine is not running despite the fact that a request is being
made. Possible choices are:
OVERSPEED: This start cause happens when the controller receives a request to start, but the engines sends an
“Overspeed” signal, thus preventing its ability to effectively start the engine.
FAILSTART: This start cause happens when the controller receives a request to start, but a “Fail To Start” alarm is
active after a cranking sequence failure, thus preventing its ability to effectively start the engine.
LOW ZONE: A not running lower zone controller prevents the motor from running. This functionality is optional.
LOCKED: An interlock signal is preventing the motor from running.
N- Operations timers: This includes the sequential start timer, the run period shutdown timer, the manual test timer,
the weekly test timer and the AC Fail timer.
O- The pressure gage: It allows for a precise reading of the actual system pressure. The cut-in and cut-out are
represented by a red and green line on the gage, allowing a quick comparison between the actual pressure and the
set points. At the center of the gauge, a digital indicator shows the actual discharge pressure represented also by
the needle of the gauge. Just under of the digital pressure indicator, the actual pressure unit is shown. The
maximum allowable pressure is also indicated on the gauge and will scale the gauge accordingly.
P- HOA Indicator: Displays the current mode. Hand, Off, Automatic.
Q- Actuation Mode: Displays if the controler is Pressure Actuated or Non-Pressure Actuated.
R- Controler type: Displays if the controler is an Automatic or Non-Automatic type.
S- Shutdown mode: Displays if the shutdown on this controler is Automatic or Manual.
Screen Saver
The screen saver's goal is to expand the lifetime of the LCD screen. The screen saver will be instantly deactivated if
the engine is running or if an alarm is activated. To manually deactivate it, simply touch the screen or any
membrane button. After deactivation, the screen saver will always redirect to the “Home” page. It will also log off
any user by resetting the security level to 0.

Advanced Configuration Page
Config > Advanced
32
This page is the portal to all the advanced configuration parameters of the ViZiTouch. It leads to 10 other pages:
Update Program Page
Config > Advanced > Software Update
This page is used to update the controller software. A USB key or a network connection with the software update is
needed. The controller cannot update to an older version.
Sensor Selection
Config > Advanced > Sensors
Five analogue sensors, an AC voltage sensor, two battery current sensors and two battery voltage sensors can be
calibrated by accessing this page. The Analogue Input 1 is dedicated to the Pressure Transducer. The other Analog
Input depends on the controller options.
33
Every sensor, except the AC Voltage can be calibrated the same way. The Signal destination, the Unit type, the
Unit, the Min and Max value are variables that are set in factory but the calibration can be made in the field.
There are three ways of calibrating a sensor that can be chosen in the windows below “Sensor value”.
-Sensor value: Use an external mean of measurement that is already calibrated. Bring the sensor to a low value
and take a measurement with the calibrated instrument. Enter that value in the “Low” window below the “Desired
value” and press the window on the right (with the circular arrow). Repeat with a higher value of the sensor. Then
press compute.
-Theorical voltage: Use a graphic of the theorical sensor’s voltage response (usually given in the datasheet of the
sensor). Enter a low point (value, voltage) and a high point. Then press compute.
-Theorical current: Same as the theorical voltage, but with amperes.
For better results, use two points that are far apart, but in the normal range of the sensor.
For the AC voltage, only one point is needed.
Alarms
Config > Advanced > Alarms
34
Most alarms are not configurable in the field, but some are with the appropriate password level. If it’s configurable,
the boxes will be in white. Otherwise the boxes will be grey. Also, the two last fields: Value Usage and Analog Value
are not always visible.
Text: This field can be used to change the name of the alarm that will be displayed while this alarm is active.
Start Alarm Test: The alarm can be tested using this button.
Enable: Check this box to enable the Alarm and to make this signal an alarm (red display). Otherwise, it will be a
warning (yellow display).
Audible: Check this box to make the bell ring while this alarm is active.
Unsilenceable: Check this box to make the bell unsilenceable while the alarm is active.
Annunciate when occurred: Check this box to create a new state for the alarm. After it has been “Active”, the alarm
will appear as “Occurred” in the alarm list when the condition triggering the alarm is no longer present.
Acknowledgeable: Check this box to make the alarm acknowledgeable. If an alarm is ackowledged, the bell will be
silenced and the alarm IO board Output will stop being active. To acknowledge an alarm, go to the alarm list page
and press the blue “Active” status on the right of the alarm. The “Active” status should change to “Acknowledge”.
Press again on the status to return to “Active”.
Timer on: It is the time delay between the triggering of the condition and the activation of the alarm.
Timer off: It is the time delay between the stoping of the condition and the deactivation of the alarm.
Value Usage, Analog Value: It is used to describe the activation range of the alarm. “Lower Than”, “Higher Than”
and “Between” can be selected. The coresponding value has to be entered.
35
Control Timers
