Figure 3-17Effect of Changing the System Voltage Setting

Auto Stop Load: The auto stop load is set as a percentage of full load. As the battery bank approaches the fully charged state, the charge rate slows, and the load on the generator set decreases. The 6VSG will automatically stop when the load has reached or fallen below the Auto Stop Load setting for 180 seconds (3 minutes). The default setting is 40% load.

Load Limit (%): This setting limits the current output to the maximum charge rate specified by the battery manufacturer or load in the application. The default setting is 100%, which gives the maximum current values shown in Figure 3-18.Refer to the battery manufacturer's recommended maximum charge rate and contact an authorized Kohler distributor or dealer if the setting needs to be changed.
