Starting and Stopping the Generator
Use the Xantrex XW AGS to start or stop the generator manually using
the Xantrex XW System Control Panel or automatically in response to an
electrical system condition.
To set the Xantrex XW AGS to start and stop the generator
automatically:
1. On the Xantrex XW AGS menu, highlight GenMode and press Enter.
2. Use the arrow button to select [Automatic].
3. Press Enter.
To start the generator manually:
1. On the Xantrex XW AGS menu, highlight GenMode and press Enter.
2. Use the arrow button to select [ManualOn].
3. Press Enter.
To stop the generator manually:
1. On the Xantrex XW AGS menu, highlight GenMode and press Enter.
2. Use the arrow button to select [ManualOff].
3. Press Enter.
Important: To avoid Xantrex XW AGS faults, try not to combine
automatic and external manual starts and stops.
When the generator has been started automatically, allow it to stop
automatically unless a situation occurs that requires the generator to be
stopped urgently.
Likewise, if the generator has been started manually, ensure that it is
stopped manually. Only the “Max Run Time” setting can automatically
stop the generator after it has been started manually.
