Operation
The generator should run for approximately 30-60 seconds before
automatically turning off (ensure it does not try to restart within the
next two minutes).
Note: If the generator attempts to start but does not run, continue to
wait, the AGS will attempt to start the generator 3 more times.
If your AGS/generator system passes all steps (may attempt an
autostart x4), then the wiring from the AGS to the generator is
correct. Set up and activate the AGS using your remote control.
Info: If after 4 attempts the generator fails to start, the
STATUS LED turns red—indicating a fault. See Section 5.0.
4.3
AGS-N Controller LED Indicators
The controller has two LED indicators for viewing system operation.
4.3.1 STATUS LED Indicator
Flashing Green: Indicates the AGS system is initiating a generator
start sequence. This happens when the AGS’s TEST button has
been pressed and released, or a remote control AGS setting has
autostarted the generator.
Solid Green: Indicates the generator has started successfully and
is providing the gen run sense signal/voltage to the AGS controller.
Solid Red: Indicates a fault condition in which the generator either
has not started, or has not provided the correct run gen sense
signal/voltage to the AGS controller—after four start attempts.
4.3.2 READY LED Indicator
Solid Green: Indicates the AGS controller has power and the
temperature sensor cable is detected. This indicates normal AGS
system operation.
Flashing Green: Indicates AGS controller has power, but the temp
sensor is not detected. This can mean the temperature sensor cable
is either not connected, incorrectly connected, or is defective.
Note: The temperature sensor is not required to be connected unless
the temperature autostart feature is needed.
