10.0 Using the ME-RTR Router
10.2.1.3 Starting the Generator from the Router
To con  rm that the generator will turn on and run from the router, you must
 rst ensure that the AGS status is “ Off ” or “ Ready ” (see Section 10.2.1.2).
From the AGS Home screen (see Section 10.2.1.1):
1. Press the CTRL button, and then turn the SELECT knob to the
03 Gen
Control menu.
2. Press the SELECT knob, and then rotate it to the ON setting.
3. Press the SELECT knob to turn on the generator.
Info:
Once the generator starts, it should run until you change the
03 Gen Control menu to “ Off ”.
After two minutes, view the STATUS LED on the AGS module and ensure it
turns solid green (a solid green STATUS LED means the generator has started
successfully and is providing the gen run sense signal to the AGS module).
Note:
If the generator attempted to start but did not run, continue to wait,
the AGS will attempt to start the generator 3 more times.
10.2.1.2 Determining AGS Status
Use your router to determine the AGS’s status by viewing the second line of
the AGS Home screen.
Info: The AGS status can also be viewed by accessing the AGS
Home screen, pressing the METER button, rotating the SELECT knob
to the 03A AGS Status menu, and then pressing the SELECT knob
(second line is the AGS’s current status).
The AGS’s status should be Off or Ready . If it displays either status, then the
remote/inverter is correctly communicating with the AGS. If the AGS status
displayed is not Off or Ready , then refer to Section 12.2 “Resolving Opera-
tional Statuses” or Section 12.3 “ME-AGS-N Faults using your Remote” for
assistance before continuing.
To access the AGS Home screen:
1. Press and hold the METER button for 3 seconds. The System Home
screen displays.
2. Rotate the SELECT knob to the port# to which the AGS is connected.
This should be the AGS Home screen (“ AGS Home” appears in the
bottom right corner of the router screen).
If your AGS/gen system started (may attempt an autostart four times), ran,
and the STATUS LED lit and stayed on (not blinking), then the wiring from the
AGS to the generator is correct. You are now ready to enable the AGS by set-
ting the
03 Gen Control menu to “ AUTO ” in your remote (see Section 10.3.1).
Info:
The AGS attempts to start the generator 4 times. If the gen-
erator fails to start after four attempts, the STATUS LED turns red
– indicating a fault.
If the router displays a generator fault or the AGS module’s STATUS LED shows
a fault condition (solid red LED indication), refer to Section 6.2 “Generator
Starting/Running Troubleshooting” for assistance.
