Does anyone know how to review or set the voltage trigger for the auto sdtart of the generator in my 2017 Isata 5 DB. It has a xantrex control SCP.
Thanks

The early versions did not have AGS as I recall. We officially started for 2018 MY....but some in 17 might have gotten it. Have you checked for an AGS tab in the touch screen?

Yes, there is an "auto start" button under the start button and an "auto stop" button under the stop button on the screen. But how do I use them to set the start voltage, or what would it be set at

Take a picture of that screen...off to the left, I thought there were more tabs or other items you can select. That was where the AGS settings were (if equipped).

It'll be a day or two before I can get back to the moho to take a picture. Thanks for working with me on this

I don't think that one has AGS.

I do have auto start. It works. I just don't know how to set the trigger voltage.

My 2017 I5 has AGS start. Separate toggle switch located by the sofa on the same panel as the slide out, Xantrex, solar switches. Switch has "off", "test" and "run" settings. The AGS on the Plex screen doesn't work the AGS in my unit. AGS settings are in the bay with all the electrical equipment.

Ok, if you can turn the AGS on, then how do you do that? Is it a remote switch that says magnum? Have you watched the AGS video? At the tail end of that video we show you what the older style will look like in the back wall of the inverter bay.
The other possibility is that you had the Xantrex without ags and the original owner added it, then we would be no help. But if you have the older style (not on the magnum digital display) then the video covers that as well.

I do not have the Magnum controls. I have to look in the electrical bay for the control panel there. I start my ags from the plex panel.
I am the original owner, so nothing has been done that I'm not aware of.
I see in the video what to look for and will verify in a couple of days and report back.
Thanks to all

When you say you have AGS...how do you know that?
AGS is different than "Auto Start". Auto Start on the multiplex simply means you push the button one time and it does the priming and the starting on its own. It will do that a couple of times I believe until it starts.
To be clear...the evolution of the Isata 5 is as follows...
early Models Xantrex Inverter, NO AGS
Then it transitioned to Xantrex Inverter with Magnum AGS (on-off switch is a toggle with the AGS-S, manual controls in the electrical bay)
The current models have Magum Inverter with Magnum AGS-N as shown in the video.
