02A Generator
The 02A Generator menu item provides three set points to choose from
for generator control.
OFF This set point disables the auto-start system or immediately turns
OFF a generator (without cooldown) started by the inverter. It is also used
to reset the automatic generator start system after an ERROR condition
occurs.
AUTO This set point enables the auto-start system features and allows
the generator to be started automatically based on battery voltage, load
amps, exercise time, or a preset time. The generator may be started based
on battery voltage, load amps, or exercise time with the following
distinctions:
• If the generator is started automatically based on battery voltage, it
will shut off after the charger completes its Bulk and Absorption
battery charging stages or if the 24H RN2/Max Gen Run Timer is
met.
• If the generator started automatically based on load amps, it will turn
off when the current, as shown on the 04E Load Amps AC display,
decreases below the 26A Load Start Amps setting for the 26C Load
Stop Delay Min period.
• If the generator started automatically based on exercise time, it will
turn off after the setting in menus 24F Exercise Time Min and
24G Gen Cooldown Time Min periods has been reached.
ON This set point turns on the generator connected to the GSMs
generator control relays. When ON is selected, the generator must be
stopped by selecting the OFF setting.
Generator Status
Menu Items
Menu Items 02B through 02F are generator status menus. They are Read-
Only displays for determining “why” the generator has started. They will
indicate either NO or YES depending on whether the generator has started
based on the parameters of time, voltage, or current.

Note: The “AUTO” generator start/stop function is disabled if the inverter is
OFF or Bypass Mode is selected.
Note:
By pausing the cursor at ON then selecting AUTO (Do not pass-
through OFF), the generator is manually turned ON and will be automatically
stopped after the Bulk/Absorption charge is finished.
