SYSTEM SETUP AND OPERATION GUIDE FOR THE SOLAR STIK USAF G-BOSS MEDIUM AND HEAVY HYBRID POWER SYSTEM
PRELIMINARY DRAFT
Testing the AGS Function
Push the red AGS Test button at the AGS interface to confirm all wiring from the generator to the
AGS module is correct and the AGS circuit is configured correctly for a particular generator. When
pressed, the Status LED on the AGS module will begin to blink green and the generator should
start. (A blinking green Status LED means the AGS has initiated an automatic generator start/stop
sequence.)
Once the generator starts, view the Status LED 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.) It should run for approximately 30–60 seconds before automatically turning off.
Generator Having Difficulty Starting
Causes
• Generator starter battery voltage too low
• Low fuel
• Fuel / Air filters clogged
Solution
1
Charge the generator starter battery.
2
Add fuel.
3
Check air and fuel filters; replace if necessary.
Generator Will Not Start
Causes
• Out of gas (diesel fuel) (“OG”)
• Auto Gen Start (AGS) control module on generator in “fault” mode
• Gen Control (CTRL 03) function set to OFF
• Dead generator starter battery
Solution
1
Fill fuel tank and prime the lines.
2
Reset the AGS module by toggling the PRO-Verter power switch Off, then On.
3
Set the Gen Control to ON or AUTO.
4
Charge or replace generator starter battery.
Generator Starts, Shuts Down When Load Transferred
Cause
The motor in the generator cannot sustain a significant load until the engine is fully warmed up.
Solution
Gen warm-up and cooldown phases are critical for repetitive start/stop function. Make sure the Gen
Warm-up setting is at least 75 seconds in duration.
