Note: Manually stopping the generator will set the Generator Start selection to Manual (Push On), disabling any automatic start settings. The generator will no longer automatically start after it is manually stopped with the RC/GS.

Thermostat Start Enable and Disable (RC/GS Only)

The RC/GS can be configured to enable the RV Series Inverter/Charger to start and stop the generator in response to a signal from a thermostat. The RV Series Inverter/Charger must have its Automatic Generator Start connections wired to a thermostat. For more information, see the Installation chapter in the RV Series Inverter/Charger Owner’s Manual.

Enabling this setting allows the generator to automatically power an air conditioner or heater after receiving a signal from a thermostat. Each generator start and stop has a time delay of 30 seconds after the RV Series Inverter/Charger receives the thermostat signal.
