ME-AGS-N Router Status Messages
A status message may be an operational or fault message. Access the AGS status menu (
METER
:
04A AGS Status
menu) to view the AGS’s current operating status. This menu is important when
determining if the AGS is working correctly, or for troubleshooting an AGS installation.
8.2.6.1
AGS Router Operational Statuses
See Table 8-3 for AGS operational statuses that may display (depending on your router’s version).
Status
Description
AC In
(ACIn)
The inverter/charger is connected to another source such as a grid or
an alternate generator, and is not controlled by the AGS. When
AC
In
displays, the AGS is prevented or locked out from all autostarting
conditions, except for when the gen needs to exercise—if enabled.
Note:
The AC In status prevents the AGS from autostarting. To enable the AGS to autostart the
generator, remove any AC power connected to the input of the inverter/charger.
Gen Cooldown
(Cooldown or Cool)
The autostop setting has been satis
fi
ed in one of the generator
autostart/autostop menus, and the generator has been disconnected
from the inverter. However, the generator still running until the
cooldown time is met (as per
SETUP: 04I Gen No-Load Time
setting).
Gen Off
(Off)
The
CTRL: 03 Gen Control
menu is set to
OFF
. This setting will not
allow the AGS to autostart the generator.
Gen Ready
(GenReady or Redy)
The
CTRL: 03 Gen Control
menu is set to
AUTO
, and the AGS is ready
to automatically start the generator based on the active autostart
settings under the
SETUP: 04 AGS Setup
menu.
Gen Warm-up
(Warmup or Warm)
The AGS is attempting to start the generator and a time period has
been set under the
SETUP: 04I Gen No-Load Time
setting. Once the
AGS status displays as “
Warm-up
”, the inverter/charger’s AC input
ignores any incoming AC power. This prevents the inverter/charger
from loading the generator during warm-up. Once the AGS con
fi
rms
the generator is running, the warm-up time setting must be met
before the generator can connect to the inverter/charger.
Manual Run
(Man Run or MnRn)
The generator was started manually, either by setting the
CTRL: 03
Gen Control
menu to “
ON
”, or by using the start/stop switch directly
connected to the generator.
Note:
The AGS determines that the generator has been manually turned on by sensing a gen run
sense voltage to Terminal #2 on the AGS’s 8-port terminal block. However, if the Gen Type DIP
switch is set to “2-Wire Standby”—which does not require a gen run sense voltage—manually
turning the generator on displays a status of AC In rather than Manual Run.
No AGS Comm
(No Comm)
The AGS is not communicating with the inverter/router. This is a
normal status if there is no AGS-N connected in the system.
Note:
If an AGS is connected, then ensure: the green READY indicator on the AGS module is on
(blinking or solid) to indicate that the AGS module is getting power, the communications cable
is connected from the Network port on the Magnum inverter to the NETWORK port on the ME-
AGS-N, and that you have the correct communications cable.
Quiet Time
(QuietTme or QT)
The AGS has entered Quiet Time per the
SETUP: 04G Gen Quiet Time
setting.
Note:
The generator will not autostart during Quiet Time.
Unknown ?##?
(Unk?##? or ?##?)
The generator failed to recognize the status information transmitted
by the AGS. This is normally due to an AGS module being a newer
version than that of the router.
