10.0 Using the ME-RTR Router
•
Set Gen Warm-up Time
– This setting is the amount of time the gen-
erator is allowed to warm up before connecting to the inverter/charger.
Default setting:
Set Gen Warm-up Time = 60 sec.
Range:
OFF, 1 - 120 Seconds, 3 - 127 Minutes
Where should I set Gen Warm-up Time?
Check with your generator manu-
facturer. Typically, smaller generators (~2-3 KW) need at least 60 seconds
before applying a load; larger generators require a longer warm-up time.
SETUP: 04J Gen Cooldown Time
This menu allows the generator to continue to run after it disconnects from
the inverter/charger and prior to autostopping (i.e., cool down). Allowing
the generator to cool down after the load is disconnected helps to prolong
generator engine life (especially diesel engines w/turbos).

Set Gen Cooldown Time
– This setting is the amount of time the genera-
tor is allowed to cool down after it disconnects from the inverter/charger.
Default setting:
Set Gen Cooldown Time = 60 sec.
Range:
OFF, 0 - 120 Seconds, 3 - 127 Minutes
Where should I set Gen Cooldown Time? Check with your generator
manufacturer. Typically, smaller generators (~2-3 KW) need at least 60 sec-
onds to cool down after being disconnected from a load; larger generators
require a longer cooldown time.
Info:
The warm-up and cooldown features prevent the generator
from connecting to the inverter’s AC input. Since the inverter only
has a single-source input, it can not distinguish between grid or
generator input. So, during warm-up or cooldown, the inverter will
prevent any AC input from connecting. When either warm-up or
cooldown is activated, it will disconnect any AC source connected to
the inverter’s AC input (i.e., grid or generator) until the time period
(warm-up or cooldown) is over.
SETUP: 04I Gen Warm-up Time Menu
This menu allows the generator to run (i.e., warm up) before it connects to
the inverter/charger, or powers the battery charger and any pass-thru loads.
Most generators need to warm up before a load is supplied – similar to warm-
ing up your car before driving it.
10.2 ME-AGS-N Functional Tests using the ME-RTR
Once you have used your ME-RTR router to establish all the autostart/autostop
settings you need, perform the following tests to verify that the AGS system
is functioning correctly and the communication from the remote/inverter to
the ME-AGS-N is correct.
10.2.1 Router to Generator Communication Test
This section describes how to: access the AGS Home screen, determine the
current AGS status, and use the ME-RTR router to start the generator.
10.2.1.1 Accessing the AGS Home Screen
In order to access the AGS’s CTRL, METER, and PORT menus, you must
 rst ensure that you are on the port that displays the AGS Home screen.
Once the AGS Home screen displays, press the particular router button to
access the desired AGS menu.
