Once OnCue Plus is used to turn a PIM output on or off,
the output will no longer be controlled by the generator
set. For example, output 4 may initially be set to the
generator function Not in Auto. If OnCue Plus is used to
turn that output on or off, the output will no longer
operate when the generator's Not in Auto function
operates. The output must be operated through OnCue
Plus.
Use OnCue Plus to rename the output functions to
identify the equipment connected to each output. See
Section 2.14, Settings, for label renaming instructions.
