Automatic Generator Start (AGS)
The Automatic Generator Start System (AGS) provides
optional automatic control of your onboard generator�
The purpose of an AGS system is to automatically start
and run the generator to charge the battery when the
State of Charge (SOC) drops to a predetermined level�
This feature protects the battery by ensuring it never
discharges to the point of a low-voltage disconnect�
Once the battery receives a sufficient charge, the
generator will automatically turn off�
To change generator start/stop settings and to set
predetermined quiet times so the generator will not
start during the night or during posted quiet times,
navigate to the electrical screen on the Multiplex
touchscreen panel; see Multiplex System on page
5-20�
NOTE
The system will only allow the generator to run
until the battery reaches a 95% SOC to avoid
running the generator indefinitely.
Once enabled, AGS will remain enabled until you cycle
the Ram ProMaster Ignition, disengage the AGS, or
until you manually operate the generator�
The generator produces Carbon Monoxide (CO), a
highly poisonous gas� Moving Parts and electricity
can cause severe personal injury or death� To reduce
exposure to these hazards, always disable AGS
before:
1� Sleeping in the vehicle, unless equipped with a
working Carbon Monoxide detector
2� Parking the vehicle in a garage or confined space
3� Parking the vehicle for storage
4� Servicing the generator, battery or other electrical
appliances
5� Fueling the vehicle
Automatic Transfer Switch
Your coach is equipped with an Automatic Transfer
Switch with shore power sensing capability that
automatically switches the 120 volt feed to the Energy
Management System from shoreline to generator and
back without input, as you choose which way to power
the touring coach�
The Automatic Transfer Switch automatically
determines the shore power connection amperage,
which means no manual setting is necessary�
In addition, the Automatic Transfer Switch protects
against the following:
• Power Surges
• Open ground
• Open neutral
• Low (<102V) and high (>132V) voltage
• Reverse polarity
• Miswired pedestals
• High and low frequency
• Multi-mode surge suppression
NOTE
Make sure to read and understand all electrical
Component owner’s manuals provided in the
owner’s Packet before operating the touring coach.
Observe all operating instructions and Warnings as
well as all recommended maintenance schedules
and procedures.
