• Start value during quiet hours: During Quite hours it may be desirable to delay an autostart until it really can't be avoided.
If Quiet hours has been defined, set a lower, more critical autostart level.
• Stop when Battery SoC is higher than: Set the recharge level for autostop.
• Stop value during quiet hours: If Quiet hours has been defined, set a lower autostop level to achieve a shorter generator
run-time.
16.6.3. Relays triggered by Battery Current
• Use battery voltage value to start/stop: Toggle the feature on or off.
• Start when battery voltage is lower than: When a high AC demand is experienced which will soon exhaust the battery, the
generator can be auto-started to assist in meeting that demand. Set the current-level at which this will occur.
• Start value during quiet hours: If Quiet hours has been defined, set a higher, more critical current value.
• Start after condition is reached for: Set a delay before autostart. Some AC device will draw a short-term, high-peak current
on startup. Instigating a delay before autostart will avoid starting the generator unnecessarily.
• Stop when battery current is lower than: Set the current for autostop.
• Stop value during quiet hours: If Quiet hours has been defined, set a higher current level to achieve shorter generator
run-times.
• Stop after the condition is reached for: Set a delay to ensure that the current-reduction condition is stable.
16.6.4. Relays triggered by Battery Voltage
• Use battery voltage value to start/stop: Toggle the feature on or off.
• Start when battery voltage is lower than: When battery voltage falls below the value entered, the relay will start the
generator.
• Start value during quiet hours: If Quiet hours has been defined, enter a lower (more critical) value to ensure the generator
will only autostart when absolutely necessary.
• Stop after the condition is reached for: This feature builds in a delay before stopping the generator after the 'stop' value has
been reached. This is to make sure that the voltage rise is stable.
16.6.5. Relays triggered by AC load
AC load triggers work similarly to other triggers but the feature is refined by a Measurement setting. The Measurement setting is
available on firmware v2.0 and later and has three possible values:
1. Total consumption (Default option)
2. Inverter total AC out
3. Inverter AC out highest phase
