Max Run Time
Full name Maximum Generator Run Time
Purpose The Max Run Time setting allows you to set a limit on how long the
generator will run. This setting overrides any automatic start triggers. For
example, if the generator starts in response to low battery voltage, and
your batteries are not fully charged before “Max Run Time” is reached,
the generator will stop. In addition, when the generator is started
manually from the System Control Panel, the generator will stop when
“Max Run Time” is reached.
When started with an external manual on/off switch, the generator will
not stop when it reaches “Max Run Time”. You must stop the generator
with the external manual on/off switch, or by using the System Control
Panel to change the “AGS Mode” to ManualOff.
If the Auto Gen Start reaches “Max Run Time”, a warning message will
appear on the System Control Panel. The Auto Gen Start will stop
operating until you acknowledge the warning by pressing Enter on the
System Control Panel.
When to use You should adjust “Max Run Time” if you find that the maximum
generator run time:
• exceeds the fuel capacity of your generator.
• is not long enough to fully recharge your batteries under optimum
conditions.
Exercise Per
Full name Set Exercise Period (in days).
Purpose “Exercise Per” allows you to set the minimum time interval in between
each exercising of the generator.
The time interval defined by the Exercise Period setting begins with the
last time the generator was run for any reason, not with the last time the
Auto Gen Start exercised the generator.
For example, setting an exercise period of 30 days would start the
generator if it had not been run at all for 30 days.
Values Default
2hours to 8hours (increments of 1hour) 3hours
