Using an AGS Module: Operation/Monitoring
METER: 04A AGS Status Menu
This read-only menu displays the AGS’s current status. There are 28 different status messages
that can display to identify what state the AGS is currently in—only one displays at any one time
(refer also to Figure 7-2).
Info: This menu is important when determining if the AGS is working correctly or for
troubleshooting an AGS installation. For any fault mode displayed in the status menu,
refer to Section 7.3.3.
Available statuses are (see Tables 7-3 through 7-5 for information on each):
Operational/Start Status:
• AC
In
• Gen Cooldown
• Gen Warmup
• Manual Run
• No Comm (AGS not present)
• Off
• Start Test
• Start Time
• Start Topoff
• Start VDC
• Start 100% SOC
• Quiet Time
• Ready
• Start
Amp
• Start Exercise
• Start SOC
• Start Temp
Fault Status:

• Fault Exercise
• Fault Gen Run
• Fault

• Fault Topoff
• Fault VDC
• Fault 100% SOC
METER: 04B DC Volts-AGS Menu
This read-only menu displays the DC voltage measured at Terminals #3 and #4 of the AGS con-
troller. This menu is useful in setting up the voltage start for the AGS, and for troubleshooting its
operation.
Info: This DC voltage reading may vary from the DC voltage readings in the METER:
01A DC Volts and METER: 05C DC Volts-BMK menu items. When troubleshooting, read
the appropriate related meter for each device. Use this menu for AGS verifi cation and
testing.
METER: 04C Gen Run Time Menu
This read-only menu displays the length of time the generator has been running since it was
autostarted. This helps determine how long the generator has been running since it was auto-
started—in case you were not present when it started. This menu is enabled when CTRL: 03 Gen
Control is set to AUTO, but does not display run time when the generator has been manually
started. This meter is not designed to replace an hour meter that shows the total hours the gen-
erator has run—refer to the METER: 04G Hour Meter menu.
Info: The Gen Run Time menu’s timer is started when the gen run sense voltage/signal
is correct and qualifi ed at the AGS controller. It is not considered qualifi ed until after
a full start attempt and the 04I Gen Warm-up Time setting is satisfi ed. Cooldown and
warm-up times are not included in the gen run time display. Total generator run time
= Gen Run Time + Gen Warm-up Time + Gen Cooldown.
Info: The times in this display are shown in tenths of an hour (0.0 hrs., 0.1 hrs.,
etc.,)—thus, 0.1 hrs. = 6 minutes.
Info: Depending on the AGS’s version, the Gen Run Time display resets to 0.0 differ-
ently. The ME-AGS-N (Ver 5.2): resets to 0.0 when the generator autostart has fi nished.
The ME-AGS-N (≥Ver 5.3): resets to 0.0 when another generator autostart is triggered.
Info: This display is used by the SETUP: 04F Max Gen Run Time menu to determine the
generator’s maximum run time when started automatically.
