fault Detection system
The generator may have to run for long periods of time with
no operator present. For that reason, the system is equipped
with sensors that automatically shut down the generator
in the event of potentially damaging conditions, such as
low oil pressure, high temperature, over speed, and other
conditions. Refer to
Fault Detection System
in the operator’s
manual for more detailed information.
The owner will use the remote LED indicator to observe
the status of the home generator system. The remote LED
will turn on and off in a series of blinks if certain faults are
detected in the generator system. Consult with the owner
for a convenient location. Locate the electrical box in an
area visible by the home owner such as near a garage door
opener or security control panel.
to install the remote LeD indicator:
1. Push the LED through the mounting plate from
the front until it snaps in place. The LED is
polarity sensitive.
2. Using provided 10 pin connector and installer-
supplied minimum 18AWG wire, connect the remote
LED to the generator control board +LED and GND
connection. Use wire nuts to attach wire to LED leads.
3. Attach mounting plate to installer-supplied
electrical box.
utility circuit connection
“240V Utility” leads must be routed in conduit. The
“240V Utility” leads deliver power to the generator’s circuit
board, optional battery warmer and optional oil warmer. This
power also charges the battery. When power on these leads
is lost, the generator will start.
Using provided 2 pin connector plug and installer-supplied
minimum 300V, 14 AWG copper wire, connect each control
circuit terminal in the generator to the two-amp fuse
terminals in the automatic transfer switch.
When making connections, obey wire type and torque
specifications printed on the circuit breaker and neutral/
ground connector.
