Wiring to a Thermostat

With the RC/GS remote control, you can enable the RV Series Inverter/Charger AGS to
start the generator in response to 5 to 30 V output signal from a thermostat. Once
connected and enabled, the AGS will automatically start the generator when the air
conditioner or furnace needs to be run. You cannot program the thermostat itself with the
RC/GS. Thermostat connections are made on the terminal block (see Figure 2-8 on page
2–19).
For specific information about thermostat wiring and where AGS connections should be
made, please consult your thermostat documentation or contact the thermostat
manufacturer.
