7.0 Using an AGS

AGS Remote Status Messages

A status message may be an operational or a fault message. Access the AGS

status menu (AGS button’s

02 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.

7.7.1 AGS Remote Operational Statuses

Refer to Table 7-3 for a brief description of the possible AGS operational

statuses that may display.

Table 7-3, AGS Remote Operational Statuses

STATUS

DESCRIPTION

AC In

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 generator

needs to exercise—if enabled.

Lock-

out

Lockout occurs when the AGS system is automatically disabled

because the generator has been started or stopped for any

condition outside the control of the AGS.

Note:

When a Lockout status occurs, the AGS: 01 AGS Control menu

automatically changes from Enable (or Enable w/QT) to OFF. For

assistance in clearing or disabling this status, refer to Section 7.8.2.

Note:

This lockout is a requirement for RV installations—per RVIA. For

installations where the requirement to automatically disable the AGS

system is not needed, the AGS mode can be changed to “Other”. For

information, refer to Section 7.8.2 and on the AGS Mode under the AGS:

08 AGS TECH menu on page 74.

Manual

Run

Generator was started manually from a switch directly

connected to the generator, and the

AGS Mode

Other

(if the

AGS Mode=RV

, a Lockout fault displays instead).

Note:

The AGS determines that the gen has been manually turned on

if the gen run sense voltage is detected on Terminal #2 of the AGS’s

8-port terminal. However, if the Gen Type DIP switch is set to “2-Wire

Standby”—which does not require the gen run sense voltage—manually

turning the gen on displays “AC In” rather than “Manual Run”.

Comm

The AGS is not communicating with the inverter/remote. This is

a normal status if there is no AGS (Network version) connected

in the system. If an AGS is installed, then refer to Section 7.8.2

“Resolving Operational Statuses”.

Off

The

AGS: 01 AGS Control

menu is set to

OFF

. This setting will

not allow the AGS to autostart the generator.

Quiet

Time

The ME-AGS-N has entered Quiet Time per the

AGS: 07 Quiet

Time

setting.

Note:

The generator will not autostart during Quiet Time

Ready

The

AGS: 01 AGS Control

menu is set to

Enable

Enable w/

, and the AGS is ready to automatically start the generator

based on the AGS button’s active autostart settings.
