Generator auto start/stop on CCGX and
Venus GX
Introduction
An internal relay on the CCGX/Venus GX can be used to automatically start and stop a generator. This
relay - or switch - can be 'tripped' by a number of user-defined conditions. This manual will explain
what conditions are available to you; and it will guide you through the steps required to set-up this
useful functionality.
Firstly, wire the relay to a genset. The relay is located on the back of the CCGX - marked Relay. If
using a Venus GX, two relays will be seen at the bottom of the unit - only Relay 1 can be used for the
generator automatic start/stop functionality.
Wiring between the CCGX/Venus GX needs to be 'permanent' in order for the generator to keep
running; and also to allow automatic 'Stop' when the parameters for auto-stop have been met.
Besides driving the internal relay, the auto start/stop functionality can be also enabled to directly
control supported Fischer Panda generators. For more information on how to connect Fischer Panda
generators, see GX - Fischer Panda generators.
Enabling the start/stop function
Go to: Setttings → Relay and set the Function options to “Generator start/stop”
Relay
Now that has been enabled, all the settings pertaining to the Automatic Generator Start/Stop function
will be found in the main Menu under: Settings → Generator start and stop.
