If you want to change the day and time the unit exercises, simply perform the procedure again.
To turn off the generator exercise cycle, go to the OFF selection within the day of the week menu and press OK. The display will then scroll: EXERCISE CYCLE OFF.

Automatic Operation

The generator’s control board constantly monitors utility voltage. Should utility voltage drop below a preset level, the control board will signal the engine to crank and start.

When utility voltage is restored above a preset voltage level, the engine is signaled to shut down.

The actual system operation is not adjustable and is sequenced by sensors and timers on the control board, as follows:

Utility Voltage Dropout Sensor

•This sensor monitors utility source voltage.

•If utility source voltage drops below about 70 percent of the nominal supply voltage, the sensor energizes a 3 second timer. The timer is used to ‘sense’ brown‑outs.

•Once the timer has expired, the engine will crank and start.

Utility Voltage Pickup Sensor

This sensor monitors utility voltage. When utility voltage is restored above 80 percent of the nominal source voltage, a time delay starts timing and the engine will go to engine cool-down.

Engine Cool-down Timer

When utility power is sensed and the load transfers back to the utility source, the engine will go into a cool down period as described below:

•If the generator has run for MORE than 5 minutes, once the utility transfer occurs, the engine will continue to run for about 1 minute before shutting down.

•If the generator has run for LESS than 5 minutes, once the utility transfer occurs, the engine will continue to run until 5 minutes has elapsed before shutting down.
