Woodward’s LSM (Load Sharing Module) provides isochronous and droop load-sharing capability for engines in generator set applications. Additional equipment in the control system can include the Woodward SPM-A synchronizer, import/export control, AGLC (automatic generator loading control), and APTL (automatic power transfer and loading control).

ESEPRO is a Profibus gateway specifically designed to interface Woodward's Easygen series genset controls with Profibus-DP networks.

ESENET is an Ethernet gateway specifically designed to interface Woodward's Easygen series genset controls with Modbus/TCP networks.

The SPM-D2-10 series microprocessor-based synchronizers provide automatic frequency, phase and voltage matching using either analog or discrete output bias signals.

The SPM-D2-10 series are microprocessor-based synchronizers designed for use on three phase AC generators equipped with Woodward or other compatible speed controls and automatic voltage regulators.

The USB-UART Converter is used to connect a Woodward control or protection unit with a PC or laptop for configuration and monitoring purposes. It Interfaces with RJ45 Connector and Standard USB Port. The PC/laptop side is separated from the Woodward unit side through galvanic isolation.

DL-CANR allows the connection of CAN networks by using redundant fiber optic systems Received data telegrams are refreshed. This allows to built up structures with a high number of systems.

Caterpillar offers an option in the ADEM called Direct Fuel Control (DFC), which is available across multiple Caterpillar platforms, from the C27 to the CM product lines. Once enabled, DFC allows an external speed control (the actiVgen) to control fuel to diesel engines directly, based on a PWM input to the ADEM. DFC only disables the speed governing function of the ADEM -- engine protection and other functions are retained, and it does not affect emissions. The actiVgen control works with the ADEM module to provide accurate fuel control in order to maintain constant engine rpm. It accepts the engine speed signal and sends an actuator position signal to the ADEM for direct speed control. ActiVgen accepts a speed bias from secondary genset controls, like a Woodward easYgenTM, via CAN network. ActiVgen allows the user to tune the dynamics of the engine to provide stability at steady state and optimum response to large load steps, ensuring smooth synchronization, reduced engine hunting, and improved load sharing.

The SPM-A speed and phase matching synchronizer provides automatic frequency and phase matching when used with 2301, 2301A, and EPG (Electrically Powered Governor) electric load sharing control systems.
