7.7.2
AGS Remote Start Statuses
The following "Start" statuses identify the condition that autostarted the
generator. If you determine that the autostart condition occurred sooner
than expected (or didn't want this autostart condition), refer to the Setup
section for that condition to change (or defeat) the autostart setting.
Table 7-4, AGS Remote Start Statuses
STATUS
Start Temp
The generator has started based on the AGS: 04 Start
Temp F setting.
Start Test
The AGS is in Test mode. Test mode may be started from
the red TEST button located on the AGS or by selecting
"Test" from the AGS: 01 AGS Control menu (refer to your
AGS Owner's Manual for further information).
Start VDC
The generator has started based on the AGS: 05 Start
Volts setting.
7.7.3
AGS Remote Fault Statuses
The following "Fault" statuses indicate that the generator wasn't able to start
based on an expected autostart condition. Refer to Section 7.8.3 "Resolving
Fault Statuses" for help in diagnosing the problem.
Table 7-5, AGS Remote Fault Statuses
STATUS
Fault Gen Run
The generator stopped before the autostop condition
was satisfi ed.
Fault Temp
The generator failed the autostart cycle in Start Temp
mode.
Fault Test
The generator failed the autostart cycle in Test mode.
Fault VDC
The generator failed the autostart cycle in Start VDC
mode.

General AGS Operational Notes
•
If a fault condition occurs, select the OFF setting from the 01 AGS
Control menu, and then select Enable or Test. If the problem persists,
refer to
your AGS Owner's Manual.
•
When the gen control setting in the remote is in the OFF position,
all generator autostart functions are disabled and the AGS module's
STATUS indicator will also be off.
•
When AGS control is set to Enabled and an autostart condition occurs,
it attempts an automatic generator start. This is done by closing its
internal relays (based on the Gen Type selection) to control the starter—
much like a person does when manually starting the generator. The
starter is turned on for short periods of time and then turned off. If the
AGS determines that the engine has started while cranking (STATUS
indicator lights solid green), the starter is turned off after a short delay.
If the engine does not start, another attempt is made to turn on the
starter after a long delay period. This is repeated until the generator
