Checking Automatic Operation
To check the system for proper automatic operation,
proceed as follows:
I. Check thatAUTO/OFF/MANUAL is set to OFF.
2. Apply utility power to the Automatic Transfer Switch
by turning ON the main distribution panel circuit
breaker.
3. Set the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to AUTO.The
Automatic Power System is now ready for automatic
operation.
4. Turn OFF the main distribution panel circuit breaker
sending power to the automatic transfer switch.
The engine will crank and start after sensors havetimed
out, After starting, the Automatic Power Transfer System
will transfer essential circuit loads to the generator. Let the
system go through its entire automatic operation sequence.
5. With the generator output supplying its loads,turn
ON the main distribution panel circuit breaker that
supplies utility power to the Automatic PowerTransfer
Switch.
6. After about 6 seconds,the automatic transfer switch
will transfer loads back to the utility power.
7. About one minute after re-transfer, the generator will
stop.
This completes the test procedures for the automatic
operation of the Home Generator System.
SETTING EXERCISE TIMER
The Home Generator System is equipped with an exercise
timer that will start and exercise the system once every
sevendays.During this exercise period, the unit runs for
approximately 12 minutes and then shuts down. Electrical
load transfer DOES NOT occur during the exercise cycle
(unless an utility power outage occurs).
A switch on the control panel is labeled"Set Exercise" (see
Figure 16).The specific day and the specific time of day this
switch is pressed is programmed into the control board
memory.This date and time isthen used to automatically
initiatethe system exercise cycle.
To perform the Set Exercise procedure:
I. Choose the day and time you want your Home
Generator Systemto exercise.
On that day and time, set the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL
switch to OFF.
2.
3. Pressand hold clown the "Set Exercise" switch until
the Diagnostic LED turns on (about five seconds).
4. Hold the switch down until the Diagnostic LED turns
off. Releasethe Set Exercise switch.
5. Set the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to AUTO. "Set
Exercise" iscomplete.
For example, if you press the "Set Exercise" switch on
Sundaymorning at I0:00 AM, the unit will run an exercise
cycle the following Sundayat I0:00 AM.
NOTE: "Set Exercise" will only work if the unit is in the
Automatic mode and this exact procedure is followed.The
exerciser does not need to be re-set if the 15Amp fuse is
removed or changed.The exerciser will need to be re-set if
the 12Volt DC battery is disconnected.
If you want to change the day and time the unit exercises,
simply perform the "Set Exercise" procedure at the exact
weekday and time you want it to take place.
