Flexible connection and communication options

The SGC 421 Mk II is a flexible controller that offers many options for your applications. It supports 1 and 5-ampere current transformers, and you can configure the controller for CAN bus and RS-485 Modbus communication. The controller has 9 digital inputs, 7 digital outputs, and 7 analogue inputs (RMI/4-20 mA/0-5 VDC) that you can also configure as digital inputs, and you can configure the analogue inputs for any function you require.

A world of configuration possibilities

The Smart Connect Mk II PC tool gives you easy access to a world of configuration options. Simply connect your PC using the USB port and customise the SGC 421 Mk II to your requirements. You can supervise and log live data and save it as a favourite data list for future use. You can calibrate sensor curves and configure up to 10 engine profiles. With the M-Logic functionality, you can design custom applications using predefined event and output lists (with logical and comparator rungs to define outputs, for example alarms). You can define on-screen texts in any language for both the unit LED and the Smart Connect Mk II tool itself. You can save your settings, back them up, and quickly propagate them to other controllers, and you can even compare your custom configuration with the factory defaults to identify changes, for example for troubleshooting purposes.

Easy control from the user interface

The backlit full-graphics LED display of the SGC 421 Mk II by default can show values and alarms in English, Chinese, and Spanish, and it can easily be adapted for other languages as described above. The user interface buttons offer easy control and configuration of the unit, including operating mode selection. The SGC 421 Mk II has three alarm indicators (showing shutdown and warning alarms plus notifications) plus convenient buttons for latching mains/genset contactors and acknowledging alarms.
