9.5 Starting and Stopping the Generator using the
ME-ARC
The generator can be manually started/stopped, as well as autostarted/au-
tostopped using the available settings from your ME-ARC.
To autostart/autostop the generator:
In order for the generator to autostart/autostop, one or more of the follow-
ing autostart/autostop conditions must be pre-set (see Section 9.1):
1. Press the CTRL button on the ME-ARC remote, and then rotate the SELECT
knob to the 03 Gen Control menu.
2. Press the SELECT knob. The Set Gen Control screen displays with the
current gen control setting and an arrow to the right.
3. Turn the SELECT knob to the AUTO setting.
4. Press the SELECT knob again to select this setting. The selection arrow
appears to the right of the screen.
The AGS is now ready to automatically start/stop the generator once an
autostart condition is satisfi ed.
Note: If power is lost to your remote, the AGS control setting will return to the
default OFF setting. Once power is restored, you must enable the AGS again.
