SYSTEM SETUP AND OPERATION GUIDE FOR THE SOLAR STIK USAF G-BOSS MEDIUM AND HEAVY HYBRID POWER SYSTEM
PRELIMINARY DRAFT
Generator Short-cycles
Causes
• Incorrect setup of the Inter-Connect Circuit
• Incorrect voltage setting in the Gen Run VDC menu
• Expander Pak(s) not turned on
• High heat causing AGS to trigger (normal)
Solution
1
Verify the Inter-Connect Circuit is in accordance with the schematic on the PRO-Verter I-Plate.
2
The Gen Run VDC should be set to values appropriate for the System.
3
Verify all Expander Pak switches are in the ON position.
4
If the internal transformer is in danger of overheating, the AGS will automatically start the
generator to ensure continuity of operations. The AGS will stop the generator after temperatures
have cooled.
Generator Fails to Stop
Causes
• Charge function in standby mode
• AC circuits running at the generator’s full-rated output (batteries not being charged)
• Gen Run VDC value altered from factory setting
• AC load too high—not enough power available from generator to support both charging and load
functions
Solution
1
Verify CHARGER LED is illuminated (not blinking).
2
Reduce AC loads.
3
Ensure the Gen Run VDC is set properly (SETUP: 04A).
4
AC Input (FAVS F3) setting is too low.
5
Charge Rate (SETUP 03E) setting is too low.
6
Battery capacity (FAVS F2) is too large.
7
Charger programming is not compatible with the battery type.
8
Battery Temp sensor is reading high temp. (Clean air filters.)
