Safety Rules THESE INSTRUCTIONS – This manual is in addition to the Owner's Manual for the generator. All nSAVE warnings and recommendations in the manufacturer's manuals bust be strictly adhered to for safe use. THESE INSTRUCTIONS – The manufacturer suggests that these rules for safe operation be copied and nSAVE posted in potential hazard areas. Safety should be stressed to all operators, potential operators, and service and repair technicians for this equipment.
Safety Rules SAFETY RULES Study these SAFETY RULES carefully before installing, operating or servicing this equipment. Become familiar with this Owner’s Manual and with the unit. The generator can operate safely, efficiently and reliably only if it is properly installed, operated and maintained. Many accidents are caused by failing to follow simple and fundamental rules or precautions. The manufacturer cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a hazard.
Wireless Display System • Keep a fire extinguisher near the generator at all times. Extinguishers rated “ABC” by the National Fire Protection Association are appropriate for use on the standby electric system. Keep the extinguisher properly charged and be familiar with its use. Consult the local fire department with any questions pertaining to fire extinguishers. EXPLOSION HAZARDS • Do not smoke around the generator. Wipe up any fuel or oil spills immediately.
Wireless Display System INSTALLATION 7. GENERATOR SIDE TRANSCEIVER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 8. Remove the generator transceiver from the package and verify the gasket is properly located in its groove. Mount the generator transceiver to the generator using the two (2) screws and flat washers provided (Figure 3). Figure 3 — Mount Transceiver The following steps will illustrate how to mount the generator side transceiver to the generator.
Wireless Display System 10. Plug the other end of the wire harness into the 8-way connector at the bottom front of the control panel. The plug will only plug in one way (Figure 5A.) DO NOT force the plug into the header. Gently insert the plug until it locks into place. Figure 5B — Plug Wire Harness into 8-pin Header Figure 5A — Plug Wire Harness into 8-pin Header 11. Route the wire under the control panel (Figure 6A). Figure 6A — Route Wire 12.
Wireless Display System DISPLAY INSTALLATION 5. For easier installation, the batteries should first be fitted into the display unit (Figure 7). This will allow you to walk around and find the best location for the unit while still receiving good signal strength. Attach the other transceiver to the generator as described in the previous section. Figure 7 — Open Display Unit 6.
Wireless Display System 5. 6. 7. 8. Once a link is established, the display will "remember" its own generator and will not need to search for it again after it is turned off and back on. If the battery is ever disconnected at the generator end, the generator will search for the display when the battery is reconnected. It is important that the display is powered from the wall transformer at this time and not its internal battery.
Wireless Display System ALARM AND STATUS DISPLAY Figure 14 — Menu System The display will normally show the operating status of the generator or an alarm message if one is present.
