How long should I set the generator run time?
This depends on whether
you are using the high temperature or low battery voltage autostart feature.
• Using high temperature to autostart:
When using the high tempera-
ture autostart feature, the generator autostarts and runs until the
AGS:
04 Start Temp F
setting is reached. This means you could set the time
to the lowest time setting (
0.5 Hrs
), knowing the generator will run until
the temperature setting is satis
ed.
• Using low battery voltage to autostart:
When using the low bat-
tery voltage autostart feature, the generator run time is normally set to
help re-charge the batteries. Use the table below to help determine the
generator run time setting based on the 20-hour AH capacity of your
inverters battery bank.

AGS: 04 Start Temp F Menu
This menu allows you to set and enable a temperature value that will cause
the generator to automatically start to power an air conditioner (A/C) unit
for cooling based on an increase in temperature, or by using an air condi-
tioning thermostat control.
Info:
The optional ME-PT1 or ME-PT2 pigtail adapters can be used
to connect an air conditioner control circuit or a relay control circuit.
For more information, refer to the instruction sheet for each pigtail
adapter; either part number 64-0025 (ME-PT1 Instruction Sheet),
or 64-0026 (ME-PT2 Instruction Sheet).
This temperature autostart feature requires that the AGSs remote tempera-
ture sensor cable (as shown in Figure 1-2) or an optional ME-PT1 or ME-PT2
pigtail adapter be connected to the REMOTE port on the AGS (see Figure
2-3). The location of the remote temperature sensor determines the area
being monitored for temperature. When the temperature around the remote
temperature sensor (based on the
AGS: 08 AGS TECH
menus
Temp
display)
increases to the
AGS: 04 Start Temp F
setting, the generator automatically
starts and runs based on the
AGS: 03 Run Time Hour
setting. When this run
time period is
nished, the temperature sensor reading is checked. If the
AGS: 03 Run Time Hour Menu
This menu provides the settings that determine the length of time the gen-
erator will run once it has been autostarted by the AGS.
Default setting:
Run Time = 2.0 Hrs
Range:
0.5 Hrs - 25.5 Hrs (0.5 hr increments)
