7.0 Using an AGS Module
The AGS-N menus in the ME-RTR router under the CTRL, METER, SETUP, and TECH buttons allow
you to customize and monitor operating parameters, and to help troubleshoot your autostart/
autostop generator system. To confi gure and use the AGS with the ME-RTR, refer to the mini-index
below to direct you to the appropriate section.

ME-AGS-N Setup (with the ME-RTR) page 79
7.2 ME-AGS-N Operation/Monitoring (with the ME-RTR) page 92
7.3 ME-AGS-N Router Troubleshooting (with the ME-RTR) page 103
IMPORTANT: The AGS must be a network version (ME-AGS-N) and must be connected and
communicating with the ME-RTR in order to set up and/or control the AGS. If the AGS is not
communicating, “No AGS Present” appears when accessing the SETUP/04 AGS Setup or the
CTRL/03 Gen Control menus, unless the TECH: 07 Show all Menus menu has been set to “Yes”.
Refer to Section 3.3.5 for more info on the TECH: 07 menu.
Info: Even though you can connect a ME-ARC remote control to the ME-RTR and activate
the AGS (through the FAVS button), all the AGS’s autostart/autostop settings must be
set up in the ME-RTR.
Info: The Auto Connect setting must be selected if a ME-AGS-N is installed and enabled
in the system. Otherwise, when the generator is autostarted, it may be prevented from
connecting because the criteria to allow the AC input to connect (AC In based on time,
VDC, or SOC) may not have been met.
Note: This is true unless you are using an inverter that has two independent AC
inputs—one for grid and the other for generator (i.e., MSH4024RE). On the MSH4024RE
inverter, the AC In Control features only work with the GRID IN (AC1) input.
7.0.1 Software Differences Between AGS Versions
Even though the router provides a selection/feature or shows a setting, based on the version of
your ME-AGS-N, this selection or setting may not be available. Use Table 7-1 to determine if your
ME-AGS-N is compatible with the selection or setting you want to use.
Info: Refer to TECH/02 Port Vers (or TECH/03 AccPort Versions)—depending on what
port the AGS is connected—to determine the software version in your AGS.
