AGS Voltage Start
There are three voltage start set points in AGS mode that the user can select.
 24 Hr Start
 2 Hr Start
 2 Minute Start
If the voltage drops below the voltage setting in these three menu items, a timer starts counting down.
When the timer reaches zero (0), a start command is sent to the generator. The Quiet Time settings
overrides the starting set points, preventing the generator from starting automatically. The exception is
2 Minute Start, which is considered an "emergency" start set point and which will start the generator
regardless of Quiet Time settings.
After a generator is started due to a Voltage Start setting, it will be stopped when the inverter completes
the absorb charge or based on the DC Genset setting in the AGS Setup menu.
IMPORTANT:
If the DC Genset is set to YES, the generator will only stop after the battery voltage has
reached the DC Genset voltage for 15 minutes, or the SOC Stop % setting.
To Enable the AGS to start the generator based on battery voltage:
1. Access the MATE menu as shown in Figure 113.
2. Use the control wheel to select the Advanced Generator Start menu option.
Press the button in the center of the control wheel to accept the selection.
3. Use the control wheel to highlight Voltage Start.
Press the button in the center of the control wheel to select the menu item.
4. Use the control wheel to select N for no (disabled) or Y for yes (enabled) for each set point.
Press the button in the center of the control wheel to accept the selection.
This should advance the highlighting to the next set point.
5. Press the TOP navigation key to return to the Main Menu screen.
