The GSCM is a microprocessor-based generator-starting controller that
receives start commands from the 12-volt output from an OutBack FX
inverter auxiliary relay,
a user-supplied switch, an auxiliary relay in an inverter, a voltage
controlled relay, a timer or any user-supplied contact closure. It
automatically controls a gas/propane or diesel powered generator or
pump, and is totally sealed for harsh environment operation.
The GSCM provides contact signal relays to start the engine and
disconnect the starter when a minimum generator frequency output is
measured. It monitors the generator operation, shutting it down if one
of several fault conditions is detected. LEDs are flashed to indicate
the cause of the shutdown. Manually resetting the GSCM removes the
lockout and allows the generator to restart if called. The GSCM is
powered by 12 to 24VDC from a battery bank and will start generators
for 12 to 48V systems. For 48V systems the GSCM must be powered by a
24V-or-less tap on the 48V battery bank. The GSCM provides a 30-day
exercise function which can be synchronized with a photovoltaic input
to only start each 30-day period at the beginning of the solar charge
day. 2-year limited warranty.
