07. Quiet Time: Choose
from a preset list of quiet
time hours during which
the AGS will not allow
the generator to start.
This function is only
active when the AGS
Control (menu 1) is set to
Enable w/Quiet Time.
08. AGS Tech: Used by
service personnel for
troubleshooting.
AGS Programming
The clock must be set and the
AGS feature enabled before the
generator will start based on
voltage. The default run time is
two hours. Default start voltage is
11.0 Volts DC.
Programming AGS:
1. Press the AGS button on
the inverter remote.
2. Rotate knob to menu 06,
Set Time.
3. Press knob to enter Set
Time menu. Rotate knob
to set hour of day, press

AGS menu 07. The clock
can also be set if Quiet
Time is enabled from this
menu.
Battery Temperature Sensor
A battery temperature sensor
(BTS) is affixed to one of the
house battery terminals to measure
battery temperature and send
that information to the inverter.
When battery temperature
rises, the inverter will decrease
charge voltage to prevent boiling
the batteries. When battery
temperature cools, the inverter
will raise charge voltage. Voltage
compensation with temperature
variation is necessary to keep
charge voltage at optimum values.
If the BTS cord is unplugged from
the inverter, the inverter will use a
temperature default setting of 77º
F./25º C. as a reference point.

Auto Generator Start (Optional)

The automatic generator start
(AGS) feature allows the inverter
remote to start the generator
when battery voltage or interior
motorhome temperature (ATS)
reaches a preset point. The
AGS parameters are set at the
inverter remote control. The AGS
controller carries out the AGS
functions.
The generator is now
programmed to start when house
battery voltage drops to 11.0
Volts DC then run for two hours.
Start voltage and run time can be
changed to suit needs. Remember
to disable the AGS feature when
performing service or placing the
motorhome in storage.
WARNING:
Disable AGS when
performing service
or when storing the
motorhome. The generator
produces high voltage and
combustion gases during
operation. High voltage
and/or combustion gases
can result in severe injury
or death.

ATS Programming

The clock must be set and the
AGS feature enabled before
Automatic Temperature Start
is enabled. The default start
temperature is 75° F. Default run
time is two hours. If after two
hours, interior temperature is
above default start temperature, the
generator will continue to operate
for another scheduled run time.
Preset thermostat temperature for
the roof air conditioner so when
the generator starts, the roof air
conditioner will begin cooling.
Programming ATS:
1. Press the AGS button
on the inverter remote.
Rotate knob to menu 04,
Start Temp.
2. Press knob to enter Start
Temp. Rotate knob to
Ext Temp then press.
The remote is now

sensor.
3. Rotate knob to select the
desired start temperature
(65°-95° F.) then press
knob to select.
