System Setup
You must perform the following before operating the system:
• If generator is installed in an area regularly subjected
to temperatures below 40°F (4°C), select a 50 second
warm up time by moving jumper JP2 installed on
transfer switch control board from '20' position to
'50' position.

• Set the DPSW1 and DPSW2 dipswitches on the
transfer switch control board to match the KW rating
of the home standby generator, as described in
Setting Dipswitches.
Setting Dipswitches
Dipswitches are used to adjust control board operation
based on generator capacity. DPSW1 and DPSW2 switches
are set to correspond to total system kW rating. Dipswitch
DPSW1 has units of 1,000 watts; Dipswitch DPSW2 has
units of 10,000 watts.
NOTICE Use extreme caution when setting dipswitches or
damage to control board will result.
•
Use a pencil or small piece of plastic to set the dipswitch.
•
NEVER use a screwdriver or any type of metal object to
set dipswitches.

JP2
The "ON" position for the dipswitches is the switch number
ON THE TRANSFER SWITCH CONTROL BOARD, not on
the switch. For example, for a 27,000 watt generator, set
DPSW2 dipswitch 20 to "ON" position. Set DPSW1 dipswitch
7 to "ON" position. 20,000 plus 7000 equals 27,000 watts.
CT1 & CT2
Set only one switch to "ON" position on DPSW1
Connectors
and DPSW2.
System Test

breaker feeding the transfer switch to the OFF position. After
a few minutes the generator will start and the transfer switch

To return to utility power, turn the circuit breaker feeding the
transfer switch ON.
