The house batteries operate most of the interior lighting and appliances. As house battery power is
consumed, reserve battery capacity diminishes. The inverter can be programmed to automatically start
and stop the generator to keep up with the drain on the house batteries. All field reference points are
house battery indications or conditions. A wide field of parameters may be chosen for the genera-
tor start and stop points. These points may be set in three categories:
1. House battery voltage.
2. State of charge (SOC). The Fuel Gauge Cut-out affects SOC.
3. Absorb or Float point of the charge cycle.
Example: The inverter can be programmed to start the generator when house battery voltage drops
and to stop the generator when the house battery voltage obtains a pre-programmed state of charge
(SOC). When selecting field reference points, the start and stop points spread to prevent short cycling
of the generator.
NOTE:
If the generator is started manually from any remote switch other than the RC7 GS
remote while the automatic generator start feature is enabled, the generator may shut
down due to field parameter settings.
To override the automatic generator operation and operate the generator manually, use the RC7
GS remote Inverter button. Press the UP or DOWN arrows while in the Main Menu until Generator
Start/Stop: Press (ON/OFF) is displayed. Manually stop the generator using the ON/OFF button.
Re-booting the Inverter
The RC7 GS remote is a display only. If the inverter exhibits unusual symptoms, such as not
responding to commands or displaying erroneous error conditions, re-boot the inverter.
To Re-boot the Inverter:
1. Remove AC power from the inverter by disconnecting shore power and/or shutting the
generator off.
2. Turn the main switch on the inverter to the OFF position.
3. Switch house and chassis main battery disconnects to the OFF position.
4. Wait 30 seconds, allowing time for the capacitors to discharge.
5. Switch house and chassis main battery disconnects to the ON position.
6. Turn the main switch on the inverter to the ON position.
7. Connect the shore power cord or start the generator.
