Setting the Exercise Timer
This generator is equipped with a configurable exercise
timer. Configuration can be performed directly at the control
panel or though the Mobile Link™ application. There are two
settings for the exercise timer:
Day/Time: The generator will start and exercise for the
period defined, on the day of the week and at the time of day
specified. During this exercise period, the unit runs for
approximately five minutes then shuts down.
NOTE: The exercise timer does not automatically adjust for
Daylight Savings Time.
Exercise frequency: Exercise frequency can be set to
Weekly, Biweekly, or Monthly. If Monthly is selected, the day
of the month must be selected from 1-28. The generator will
exercise on that day each month. Transfer of loads to the
generator output does not occur during the exercise cycle
unless utility power is lost.
NOTE: If the installer tests the generator prior to
installation, press the ENTER button to skip setting up the
exercise timer.
NOTE: The exercise feature will operate only when the
generator is in AUTO mode, and will not work unless this
procedure is performed. The current date/time will need to
be reset every time the 12 volt battery is disconnected and
then reconnected, and/or when the fuse is removed.
Table 3-1 details the exercise information and programming
options.
Figure 3-9 illustrates the engine speed profile
during a typical exercise cycle.
The exercise timer must be reset if the 7.5 amp fuse is
removed.
