and a key is not pressed for more than 15 minutes, the front panel LCD backlight and LCD heater are
turned off. The DGC-2020 resumes normal display operation when any front panel button is pressed or
the genset is started remotely via the ATS input. The DGC-2020 will not go to sleep while in an Alarm
state. If needed, Sleep mode can be permanently disabled via BESTCOMSPlus or the front panel.
