Possible Causes
Exercise timer disabled or misprogrammed, Controller clock incorrect, Latched fault preventing auto start, Battery too weak at exercise time
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the generator area is clear before testing exercise manually.
- Check controller settings: Enter the setup menu and verify exercise is enabled, with correct day and time.
- Set correct time: Adjust the controller clock to the correct local time.
- Clear faults: Check for any active or latched faults and correct them so AUTO start is allowed.
- Battery health: Confirm the battery is fully charged and the charger is working, as exercise often occurs after long idle periods.
