EL240™ Panel Operation
and Troubleshooting
463-3000-05 Rev B. 23-Sep-2013 1 © 2006-2013 LOFA Industries, Inc. All rights reserved.
LOFA, the LOFA logo, CANplus and EL240 are trademarks of LOFA Industries, Inc. All rights reserved.

Introduction
This document provides general information on LOFA™ EL240 panel operation and troubleshooting. EL240
control panels are a flexible platform for diesel engine control, monitoring, and protection, featuring LOFA’s
powerful First Fault Diagnostics (FFD). After pinpointing the initial failure, FFD stores it in memory and alerts
the end user via a single bright LED. FFD monitors battery charge, low oil pressure, high temperature and up
to two additional contact closure inputs. The microprocessor-based solid-state design uses high-power
semiconductors instead of outdated electromechanical relays to ensure reliable high-current switching.
The EL240 can be factory configured with specific preheat and afterglow requirements. Alternately preheat
can be factory configured for indication from external preheat control. If preheat is not required, this output
can function as an alarm.
All standard panels include feature a 12 inch wiring harness terminating into a sealed weather proof plug. This
robust universal wiring connection performs well in harsh environments and allows interchanging a number
of different panels and harnesses. This design allows for simplified installation as well as a flexible means to
incorporate custom plug-and-play engine wiring harnesses and standard harness extension
Note
The engine harness is not included with the panel.
A number of standard engine harnesses are available or
LOFA can develop a custom harness for you exact needs.
Generic harnesses in various lengths are available for field customization.
Warning!
When replacement parts are required, LOFA Industries recommends using replacement parts
supplied by LOFA or parts with equivalent specifications.
Failure to heed this warning can lead to premature failure,
product damage, personal injury or death.

Important Safety Information The warnings in this publication are not all inclusive.
LOFA Industries cannot anticipate every potential hazard.
Appropriate safety rules and precautions should be followed with any
tool, work method or operating procedure.
Improper procedures, tools and materials may cause
damage or make the equipment unsafe to operate.
Only persons with appropriate training, skills and tools
should perform these functions.
Improper operation, maintenance or repair of this product can be
dangerous and may result in injury or death.
Do not operate or perform any maintenance or repair on this product until all operation,
maintenance and repair information is read and understood.
The information, specifications, and illustrations in this publication are based on information
available at the time of publication.
All items are subject to change at any time without notice.
EL240 Panel Operation and Troubleshooting
463-3000-05 Rev B. 23-Sep-2013 3
Operation
Turning the panel key to the run position starts a self-test which causes all LEDs to illuminate once and
enables the fuel run/stop solenoid output. After self-test, the LEDs indicate the state of the inputs they
monitor. The normal indications are battery charge and oil pressure on most applications. If these LEDs are
not illuminated at this time it may indicate the inputs are not properly connected.
The Preheat LED is illuminated when the key switch is turned to the run position if automatic preheat is
configured or if an external preheat control is connected (See Preheat Options). Preheat time varies from
application to application. After waiting for the Preheat LED to extinguish, the engine is cranked by turning
and holding the key switch in the start position until the engine starts. The key switch is spring loaded to
return automatically to the run position when released. The Preheat LED is illuminated during afterglow if
enabled.
Note
The key switch is equipped with a mechanical start locking device.
An attempt to crank the engine again can only be made by turning the key switch
to the off position to reset the start locking mechanism.
If the engine is not started within 10 seconds of turning on the panel, the fuel run/stop solenoid output is
turned off to prevent battery discharge when the key switch is left in the run position. The fuel run/stop
solenoid output is turned off after 10 seconds even if preheating. As soon as the key switch is turned to the
start position the solenoid output is enabled. The afterglow cycle begins when the key switch returns to the
run position.
Note
If conditions do not warrant preheat, the engine may be started by turning the key to the start
position without waiting for the preheat time to expire.
Panel instrument power, including the hour meter and voltmeter, is provided by the fuel run/stop solenoid
output. If the instruments do not power up when the key is turned to the run position, this indicates a
problem with the solenoid circuit (see Troubleshooting).
After the engine starts, the panel electronics ignore all shutdown conditions for the first 10 seconds. This delay
eliminates the requirement to hold a by-pass override button during starting and allows the engine
conditions such as oil pressure to normalize. The 10 second timer starts when the key switch returns to the run
position.
Note
Starter input is required for correct panel operation. If the starter motor input is not activated
(connected to battery positive) and the engine is started through another means (i.e. air
starter) the engine will shutdown 10 seconds after the key switch is turned to the run position.
EL240 Panel Operation and Troubleshooting
4 463-3000-05 Rev B. 23-Sep-2013
To prevent unintentional engine shutdowns caused by intermittent conditions (i.e., pressure spikes, coolant
movement) the panel requires a constant 1 second fault input to cause engine shutdown.
Warning!
When used in combination with mechanical float type switches
engine vibrations may prevent constant contact closure.
The panel is factory configured to shutdown with
no delay for the auxiliary shutdown inputs.
Preheat Options
Preheat Output
Preheat is a 750 mA output for control of an external power relay with predetermined preheat and afterglow
times. A relay should be selected with appropriate amperage capacity for the installed cold starting aid
(glowplug, intake air heater, etc.). Applications using multiple cold starting aids may require multiple relays.
This output provides low side (ground) preheat control.
Note
Consult engine documentation when selecting cold starting aid,
power relay and heating specifications.
Preheat Indication Input
This optional factory configuration, the preheat LED provides indication for an external preheat control. This
input accepts high side (battery positive) control to indicate preheat.
Indicators
Battery LED (Red)
A solidly illuminated Battery LED indicates a battery charge failure. A battery charge failure may be caused by
a faulty alternator, broken drive belt or the alternator not excited. A battery voltage reading of approximately
14 volts on 12 volt systems (28 volts on 24 volt systems) while the engine is running indicates the battery is
charging properly. Irregular blinking of the Battery LED may indicate a failing charge circuit. The panel can be
factory configured for battery charge failure to indicate only.
Oil Pressure LED (Red)
A solidly illuminated Oil Pressure LED indicates low oil pressure failure. The panel typically senses low oil
pressure from a ground contact switch on the engine. When a sender/switch combination is used on the
engine, the marking WK generally indicates the switch terminal. This input typically expects a normally closed
switch (ground contact when oil pressure is low). A defective switch or shorting the shutdown input to ground
can cause low pressure fault indication. Additionally, when using sender/switch combinations, swapping the
WK and G terminal can cause unintended shutdowns. The panel can be factory configured for oil pressure
failure to indicate only.
EL240 Panel Operation and Troubleshooting
463-3000-05 Rev B. 23-Sep-2013 5
Warning!
Low oil pressure is not an indication of low oil level.
For best possible protection LOFA recommends using
our solid-state oil level shutdown switch.
Note
Most shutdown switches are grounded through the switch body.
Do not use insulating sealant (i.e. Teflon tape) when installing switches.
Temperature LED (Red)
A solidly illuminated Temperature LED indicates high engine temperature failure. The panel typically senses
high temperature from a ground contact switch on the engine. When a sender/switch combination is used on
the engine, the marking WK or W generally indicates the switch terminal. This input typically expects a
normally open switch (ground contact when engine temperature is too high). A defective switch or shorting
the shutdown input to ground can cause over temperature fault indication. Additionally, when using
sender/switch combinations, swapping the WK or W and G terminal can cause unintended shutdowns. The
panel can be factory configured for temperature failure to indicate only.
Warning!
If the temperature switch is not in contact with coolant due to
coolant loss the engine is not protected from overheating.
For best possible protection, LOFA recommends using
our solid-state coolant level shutdown switch.
Note
Most shutdown switches are grounded through the switch body.
Do not use insulating sealant (i.e. Teflon tape) when installing switches.
Some thermostat housings are composites and do not provide ground for the switch.

A solidly illuminated AUX 1 LED indicates auxiliary 1 failure (i.e., coolant level, oil level, belt breakage, hydraulic
pressure, etc.). The panel typically senses failure using a ground contact switch. Auxiliary inputs are equipment
specific and determined by the equipment manufacturer. A defective switch or shorting the shutdown input
to ground can cause fault indications. The panel can be factory configured for auxiliary 1 failure to indicate
only.
AUX 2 LED (Red)
A solidly illuminated AUX 2 LED indicates auxiliary 2 fault (i.e., air flow restriction, fuel level, etc.). The panel
typically senses failure using a ground contact switch. Auxiliary inputs are equipment specific and determined
by the equipment manufacturer. A defective switch or shorting the shutdown input to ground can cause fault
indications. The panel can be factory configured auxiliary 2 for shutdown.

Warning
When used in combination with mechanical float type switches
engine vibrations may prevent constant contact closure. The panel is factory configured to
shutdown with no delay for the auxiliary shutdown inputs.
Preheat LED (Red)
A solidly illuminated Preheat LED is the panel preheat indication. When the LED extinguishes the preheat
period is complete and the engine may be cranked. The LED illuminates again to indicate afterglow.

Gauges
Voltmeter
The voltmeter is connected to the fuel run/stop solenoid output. If the voltmeter does not indicate in the run
position, this indicates a problem with the solenoid circuit. A battery voltage reading of approximately 14 volts
on 12 volt systems (28 volts on 24 volt systems) while the engine is running indicates the battery is charging
properly.
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine RPM using a frequency signal derived from the engine. This signal may be
provided by an alternator frequency tap, proximity switch. An optional amplifier/divider can be added for use
with a magnetic pickup.
Note
If the alternator is not excited (not charging),
no frequency is generated and the tachometer will indicate 0 RPM.
The tachometer must be calibrated to accurately indicate RPM (see Tachometer Calibration Instructions for
details).
Oil Pressure Gauge
The gauge measures oil pressure with a resistance sender on the engine referenced to ground. When a
sender/switch combination is used on the engine, the marking G generally indicates the gauge terminal. The
gauge expects a low resistance for low pressure and a higher resistance for higher pressure. If a powered
gauge is not connected to the sender, the gauge will read full scale (pegged). A defective sender or shorting
the gauge input to ground will cause the gauge to read no pressure. When using sender/switch
combinations, swapping the WK and G terminal prevents the gauge from working and may cause unintended
shutdowns.
Warning!
Low oil pressure is an indication of engine wear,
not an accurate indication of low oil level.
Note
Senders and gauges must be matched to indicate correctly.
Most senders are grounded through the sender body.
Do not use insulating sealant (i.e. Teflon tape) when installing senders.
Temperature Gauge
The gauge measures engine temperature with a resistance sender on the engine referenced to ground. When
a sender/switch combination is used on the engine, the marking G generally indicates the gauge terminal.
The gauge expects a high resistance for low temperatures and a lower resistance for higher temperatures. If
the gauge is not connected to the sender, the will be on read the minimum reading. A defective sender or
shorting the gauge input to ground will cause the gauge to read full scale (pegged). When using
sender/switch combinations, swapping the WK and G terminal prevents the gauge from working and may
cause unintended shutdowns.
EL240 Panel Operation and Troubleshooting
8 463-3000-05 Rev B. 23-Sep-2013
Warning!
If the temperature sensor is not in contact with coolant due to coolant loss
the gauge will not accurately indicate engine temperature.
Note
Senders and gauges must be matched to indicate correctly.
Most senders are grounded through the sender body.
Do not use insulating sealant (i.e. Teflon tape) when installing senders.
Some thermostat housings are composites and do not provide ground for the sender.
Hourmeter
The hourmeter is connected to the fuel run/stop solenoid output. If the hourmeter does not count in the run
position, this may indicate a faulty hourmeter or a problem with the solenoid circuit. If the engine shuts down
or is not started within 10 second the hourmeter stops counting.
Additional Gauges
Additional gauges can be added by removing blind covers and installing the gauge. Power connections are
provided with the standard configuration.
Harness
Sealed Connectors
The provided sealed weather proof plug includes a grey locking device which must be released to separate
the connectors. Press the tab on the connector housing to release the connectors.
Warning!
LOFA does not recommend using dielectric grease or sealant with sealed connectors.
These chemicals may cause seal damage and allow water entry.
Use LOFA provided cavity plugs to seal the connector if wires are removed.
Unsealed Connectors
For unsealed connectors exposed to the elements, LOFA recommends using dielectric grease to protect
contacts.
Warning!
LOFA does not recommend using sealant with unsealed connectors.
Sealant traps moisture in the connector and encourages corosion.
Harness Routing
The minimum routing of radius of the wiring harnesses should be at least two times the diameter of the
wiring harness. Bends should be avoided within 1 inch (25 mm) of any connector in order to avoid seal
distortion allowing moisture to enter the connector.

Welding on Equipment with Electronic Controls
Proper welding procedures are required to avoid damage to electronic controls, sensors, and associated
components. The component should be removed for welding if possible.
The following procedure must be followed if the component must be welded while installed on equipment
with electronic controls. This procedure will minimize the risk of component damage.
Warning!
Do not ground the welder to electrical components such as the control ground or sensors.
Improper grounding can cause damage to electrical components
Clamp the ground cable from the welder to the component being welded. Place the clamp as
close as possible to the weld to reduce the possibility of damage.
1. Stop the engine. Turn the key switch to the OFF position.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery.
3. Open any installed battery disconnect switch.
4. Unplug the panel if possible.
5. Connect the welding ground cable as close as possible to the area to be welded.
6. Protect the wiring harness from welding debris and spatter.
7. Use standard welding methods to weld the materials.
