If the generator can run at a low speed (Quiet Test
QT), this option is available. If there is an automatic
transfer switch, there is the option to run the genera-
tor and transfer onto generator power. Once the gen-
erator is started or stopped, the state of the generator
will be shown by a “*” symbol next to the command
issued. For example:
Normal Start* You started the generator at
normal speed.
Start & transfer* You started the generator
& transferred to generator
power
Low speed start* You started the generator at
low speed (Quiet Test)
Stop generator* You stopped the generator
There is a one minute cooldown time after you stop
the generator, so it will continue to operate for one
minute after the stop command is issued. In the event
that the stop command fails (such as if you take the
display out of range, you can either retry the stop
command or manually stop the generator by switch-
ing it to the “off” position.
HISTORY MENU
L
O
G
The history log is a chronological list of
“events” that have occurred to the generator.
An event is any change in status such as an
alarm, a start or stop, the keyswitch being operated,
etc.. These events are permanently stored inside the
display module along with a time and date stamp
when they occurred. They will not be lost even if the
battery goes dead, but there is the option to erase the
log.
When entering the history menu, the most recently
logged event (Event 1) will be displayed. The actual
event will be shown as a message on the left hand
portion of the screen (Figure 10). The time and date
of the event will be shown on the right hand part of
the screen, and the event number displayed on the
underlined title bar. By using the arrow keys, navigate
through the events which are stored in chronological
order. Event 1 is the most recent and event 100 is the
oldest. The events are stored in a circular fashion so
it's possible to scroll from Event 1 back to event 100
by using the “UP” arrow key. The history log can be
cleared from the “SETTINGS” menu.

ADJUST CONTRAST
The display contrast can be adjusted using the
two arrow keys. Once the desired contrast level is
reached, press the enter key to store it.
VAC THRESHOLD
Adjust the AC voltage level used by the generator to
determine if the utility is bad. If the utility voltage
falls below this level, the generator will start. Note
that if the generator battery is ever disconnected or
goes dead, this setting will need to be re-entered.
The range of adjustment is limited by the generator
(for example – a maximum of 170 VAC on air-cooled
units) even though the display allows a larger range.
This is to accommodate different models.
SERVICE SCHEDULE
The display can be set to alarm on a specific date
for an alert that a service is required. The date is
set using the two arrow keys. Setting the month to
zero disables this whole function. When the alarm
occurs, it can be cancelled by re-setting the service
date only.
