RC7 & RC7GS Remote Controls
RC7 and RC7GS System Status Displays
The RC7 and RC7GS remote controls display the operating mode and
system status by lighting one or more LEDs located on the front panel and/or by
displaying a message on the LCD display. The four LEDs reflect the same
information as the single tricolored LED on the inverter/charger.
There are four types of system messages:
• AC source messages
• Inverter messages
• Charger messages
• Error messages
AC Source Messages
AC source messages appear when alternating current (shore power) is
present. In addition, the RC7GS ac source messages describe the current
activity, if any, of the generator.
1. Waiting for AC
Anytime the inverter is OFF and ac is not present, the LCD screen displays
“Waiting for AC.”

Waiting for AC
2. Genset Status: Pending, Cranking and Genstart
When the RC7GS is setup to start the generator for a specified condition
(SOC or battery voltage) and that condition has been met, the LCD displays
“Pending Genstart.”
Genset Status:
Pending Genstart
Genset Status:
Cranking Genset
When the initiating condition (SOC or battery voltage) has occurred, the
Pending Genstart message is displayed for approximately two minutes awaiting
a change in the condition or a manual override. If neither condition occurs, the
RC7GS attempts to start the generator and displays “Cranking Genset.”
