Xantrex Technology 809-0915 manual Restore Defaults, GenMode, Automatic Mode

Configuration of the Xanbus AGS

Restore Defaults

The "Restore Defaults" returns the AGS to the factory default settings.

GenMode

Purpose The "GenMode" menu item controls the current operating mode of the AGS.

Value	Description
Automatic	Automatic mode
ManualOn	Manual on mode
ManualOff	Manual off mode (default mode)

Considerations Use GenMode when it is necessary to switch between automatic generator control and manual generator control.

When the Xanbus system powers up all network-enabled devices, the AGS is in ManualOff mode. To enable automatic generator starts, the AGS must be put in “Automatic” mode.

Automatic Mode

To have the AGS start and stop the generator automatically, select Automatic. The generator can start and stop automatically in response to low battery voltage, AC loads on the inverter, thermostat triggers, or exercise time. Automatic mode also has a Quiet Time feature, which prevents the generator from starting during evening hours or other inconvenient times (see “QT Begin” on page 41, “QT End” on page 42, and “Using Quiet Time” on page 66).
