AGS Remote Status Messages

A status message may be an operational or fault message. Access the AGS status menu (METER:
04A AGS Status menu) to view the AGS's current operating status. This menu is important when
determining if the AGS is working correctly, or for troubleshooting an AGS installation.
7.2.6.1 AGS Remote Operational Statuses
Table 7-3 below has a brief description of possible AGS operational statuses.

Table 7-3, AGS Remote Operational Statuses

Status
AC In
Gen Cooldown
Gen Warmup
Manual Run
Note: The AGS determines that the generator has been manually turned on by sensing a gen
run sense voltage to Terminal #2 on the AGS's 8-port terminal block. However, if the Gen Type
DIP switch is set to "2-Wire Standby" (which doesn't require a gen run sense voltage), manually
turning the generator on displays a status of "AC In" rather than "Manual Run".
No Comm
AGS not present
Off
Quiet Time
Note: The generator will not autostart during Quiet Time.

Using an AGS Module: Operation/Monitoring
The inverter/charger is connected to another source such as a grid or an
alternate generator, and is not controlled by the AGS. When AC In displays,
the AGS is prevented or locked out from all autostarting conditions, except
for when the generator needs to exercise—if enabled.
The autostop setting has been met in one of the generator autostart/au-
tostop menus and the generator has been disconnected from the inverter/
charger. However, the generator still runs until the cooldown time is met
(as per the SETUP: 04J Gen Cooldown Time setting).
The AGS is attempting to start the generator and a time period has been
set from the SETUP: 04I Gen Warm-up Time menu. Once the AGS status
indicates "Warm-up", the inverter/charger's AC input ignores any incoming
AC power. This prevents the inverter/charger from loading the generator
during warm-up. Once the AGS has determined that the generator is run-
ning, the warm-up time setting must be met before the generator can con-
nect to the inverter/charger.
Generator started manually from a start/stop switch directly connected to
the generator, or from the CTRL: 03 Gen Control menu.
The AGS is not communicating with the inverter/remote.
If an AGS is installed, then refer to Section 7.3.2 "Resolving AGS Opera-
tional Statuses" for assistance.
The CTRL: 03 Gen Control menu is set to OFF. This setting will not allow the
AGS to autostart the generator.
The AGS has entered Quiet Time per the SETUP: 04G Quiet Time setting.
The CTRL: 03 Gen Control menu is set to AUTO, and the AGS is ready to
autostart the generator based on the active autostart settings under the
SETUP: 04 AGS Setup menus.
