System Status Displays

When the initiating condition (battery voltage or thermostat signal) has occurred, the Pending Genstart message is displayed for approximately two minutes, awaiting a change in the condition or a manual override. If neither condition occurs, the inverter/charger attempts to start the generator and the RC/ GS displays “Cranking Genset.”

Genset Status:

Cranking Genset

Once the generator starts, there is a brief delay to allow the generator to reach operating speed and for the inverter/ charger to synchronize to the generator, at which point the screen shows that AC is again available.

Genset Status:

AC Available

Starter Cooldown and Gen Start (RC/GS Only)

If the generator does not start within 60 seconds, a two- minute starter cooldown message is displayed after which another attempt to start the generator occurs.1 The RC/GS will make a total of three start attempts.

Genset Status:

Starter Cooldown

1.These are maximum times. They vary according to the Genset you have selected.
