Considerations If "Temp1" is enabled, the generator will start in response to a signal from the thermostat. Everything related to setting the thermostat must be done on the thermostat. For example: setting the temperature at which the furnace or air conditioning system comes on must be done on the thermostat. There are no thermostat temperature settings on the AGS or the Xanbus System Control Panel (SCP).
