ME-AGS-N Remote Status Messages

A status message may be an operational or a fault message. Access the AGS

status menu (AGS button’s 02 AGS Status menu) to view the AGS’s current

operating status. This menu is important when determining if the AGS is

working correctly, or for troubleshooting an AGS installation.

7.7.1 AGS Remote Operational Statuses

Refer to Table 7-3 for a brief description of the possible AGS operational

statuses that may display.

STATUS

DESCRIPTION

Ready

The AGS: 01 AGS Control menu is set to Enable or to Enable

w/QT, and the AGS is ready to automatically start the gen-

erator based on the AGS button’s active autostart settings.

No Comm

The AGS is not communicating with the inverter/remote.

This is a normal status if there is no AGS (Network version)

connected in the system. If an AGS is installed, then refer to

Section 7.8.2 “Resolving Operational Statuses”.

AC In

The inverter/charger is connected to another source such as

a grid or an alternate generator, and is not controlled by the

AGS. When AC In displays, the AGS is prevented or locked

out from all autostarting conditions, except for when the

generator needs to exercise—if enabled.

Off

The AGS: 01 AGS Control menu is set to OFF. This setting

will not allow the AGS to autostart the generator.

Manual

Run

Generator was started manually from a start/stop switch di-

rectly connected to the generator, and the AGS Mode = Oth-

er (if the AGS Mode=RV, a Lockout fault displays instead).

Note: AGS determines the generator has been manually turned on by

sensing a gen run sense voltage to Terminal #2 on the AGS’s 8-port ter-

minal block. However, if the Gen Type DIP switch is set to “2-Wire Stand-

by”—which does not require a gen run sense voltage—manually turning

the generator on displays a status of AC In rather than Manual Run.
Quiet

Time

The ME-AGS-N has entered Quiet Time per the AGS: 07

Quiet Time setting.

Note: The generator will not autostart during Quiet Time.
Lockout

Lockout occurs when the AGS system is automatically dis-

abled because the generator has been started or stopped for

any condition outside the control of the AGS. This an RVIA

requirement, refer to the information on the AGS Mode un-

der the AGS: 08 AGS TECH menu on page 64.

Note: When a Lockout status occurs, the AGS: 01 AGS Control menu au-

tomatically changes from Enable (or Enable w/QT) to OFF. For assistance

in clearing or disabling this status, refer to Section 7.8.2.
Note:
In installations where the requirement to automatically disable the

AGS system is not needed, the AGS mode can be changed to “Other”.

Refer to the information on the AGS Mode under the AGS: 08 AGS TECH

menu on page 64.
