If the battery voltage falls below this set point, a

2-minute timer starts to count down. Upon reach- ing zero, a start command is sent to the generator even if it is currently Quiet Time. Use the <INC> and <DEC> soft keys to change the default set- tings. When finished, press the <DOWN> soft key to go to the end of VOLTAGE START menu.

Why you might want it: Instead of the generator starting only at preset times or according to battery voltage conditions, Load Start allows it to start because the demand for electricity is high. This should prevent the batteries from being depleted. As soon as the demand decreases and the batteries can adequately fulfill it, the generator will shut off.

Load Start will start a generator whenever the total system AC Load exceeds the set point for the programmed amount of time. The generator will then be stopped when the AC load has dropped below a Load Stop set point for a programmed amount of time.

When the generator is running because of Load Start, the FX system will charge the batteries. This charge might not be completed if the generator is disconnected because of Load Stop.

NOTE: Large instantaneous loads can still overcurrent the inverter prior to the generator starting and getting in sync with the inverter.
