The XW Automatic Generator Start
Some generators allow automatic starting. Connecting an Automatic Generator Start to
the generator and to the Xanbus network is required for the XW System to benefit from
automatic generator start/stop capability.

Before installing the XW Automatic Generator Start Module, consider how and where the
unit will be mounted. Pre-plan the connection routes between the XW Automatic
Generator Start, the generator, thermostats, and the XW Automatic Generator Start. Refer
to the XW AGS Owner’s Guide for additional information.
