Meter Button And Menus - Magnum Energy ME-ARC Series Owner's Manual

is installed in the system, the generator can be manually started and stopped,
or set to start and stop automatically from this menu.
Info: If a ME-ARC is connected directly to one of the communication
ports on a router (P1-P6) it can be used in a remote location as a re-
mote on/off switch, as well as to assist in monitoring the system and
to control a generator that is connected to an ME-AGS-N.
Info: The ME-AGS-N must be installed in order for the 03 Gen Con-
trol menu to control a standby generator. Refer to the ME-AGS-N
Owner's Manual (PN: 64-0039) for installation information.
• OFF – The OFF selection will stop the generator by sending a 'stop' com-
mand from the ME-AGS-N control module (can be running from either
a manual start or an autostart command from the AGS). When the OFF
setting is selected, the generator will not start automatically.
Info: If DC power is lost to the remote, this menu resets to the
default OFF selection for safety.
• ON – The ON selection starts the generator by sending a 'start' command
from the ME-AGS-N control module. Once the generator is started, it
may be stopped by selecting OFF from the 03 Gen Control menu, which
sends a stop command from the ME-AGS-N.
Info: Manually start the generator by selecting ON from the 03
Gen Control menu; change the selection to AUTO to automatically
stop the generator. When the AUTO setting is selected after the
generator has been manually started, it uses the stop setting from
the SETUP button's 04A Gen Run VDC (using the Set Stop Gen Volts
setting—even if not enabled) or 04F Max Gen Run Time menu item,
whichever occurs fi rst.
Info: The ON selection uses warm-up time. The OFF selection stops
immediately and does not use the cooldown time.
• AUTO – This selection uses the settings from the SETUP button's 04 AGS
Setup menus to automatically start and stop the generator based on
battery voltage, time of day, AC load on the inverter, high temperature,
or battery state of charge (requires a ME-BMK/ME-BMK-NS accessory).
Refer to the Section 7.0 "Using an AGS Module" to set the start and stop
parameters for the generator.

3.3.3 METER Button and Menus

The METER menu button gives you access to the various meters which help
determine the status of the inverter/charger and battery system.
Info: Depending on the inverter, some meter functions may not
display or be accessible. If some meters do not display, refer to
Section 3.2.
Info: Most displays automatically return to the remote's home
screen fi ve minutes after the last button push. When using the
METER button, the selected menus stay and do not return to the
remote's home screen. This feature is useful for displaying com-
monly used meter readings.
