REMOTE CONTROL CONNECTIONS
Onan offers three varieties of remote control panel:
• Remote start/stop switch with indicator lamp
only (Figure 10).
• Remote start/stop switch with indicator lamp
and hour meter (Figure11).
• Remote start/stop switch with indicator lamp
and DC voltmeter (Figure12).
The genset has an 8-pin connector for remote con-
trol connections (Figure 13). Remote control wiring
harnesses in several lengths are available sepa-
rately. To make connections to a remote control
panel:
1. Snap the connector together with its mate in the
wiring harness from the remote panel. If the wir-
ing harness is made up by others, insulated 18
AWG copper conductors should be used for
distances up to 30 feet (9 meters) and heavier
gauge conductors for distances that are great-
er. Use flexible sheathing to protect remote
control wiring. Figure 14 is a schematic of typi-
cal remote control connections. It identifies the
function of each connector pin number. The re-
mote panel end of each lead should be marked
to identify the connector pin number.
2. Route control leads separately from AC power
leads to reduce the possibility of erratic opera-
tion due to false induced signals.
3. Seal the opening where the leads enter the
vehicle interior with silicone rubber or an equiv-
alent type of sealant to keep out exhaust gas.
WARNING
EXHAUST GAS IS DEADLY!
Seal all wiring openings into the vehicle
interior to keep out exhaust gas.
