In the Generator start/stop menu, scroll down and press the spacebar on Settings to bring up the Settings menu.
Conditions: See the Conditions [102] chapter.
Minimum run time: It's good practice for a generator, once started, to be allowed to reach its operating temperature. When
started manually, this setting is ignored.
Warm-up time and Cool-down time: Allows a configurable time to be set for the generator to warm up or cool down via relay
control while the AC input relay is open and the inverter/charger is not connected to it. Note that this feature requires an update of
the VE.Bus inverter/charger to firmware 502 or later.
Detect generator at AC input: Enabling this feature will raise an alarm on the GX device, as well as trigger an alarm email from
the VRM portal:
• whenever power is not detected at the AC input terminal of the Inverter/Charger. This function will bring attention to a wide
variety of problems; such as lack of fuel, or a mechanical or electrical fault at the generator. This functionality is not available for
VE.Can connected Multi/Quattros.
• It requires automatic alarm monitoring on VRM to be enabled, which it is by default.
Quiet hours: See the Quiet hours section [105] in the Conditions chapter [102].
Reset daily run time counters: Resets the 30 day run-time history.
Generator total run time: Reset or modify the total run-time hours.
