Hi folks--We've also been disappointed with the Sol-Ark two-wire generator start. The unit starts at the charge set point, but the inverter will shut down for about a minute every time the generator stops running. After the minute wait, the inverter restarts and everything is fine. But it is agg

Thanks for the suggestion, Jay. Yes, the Sol-Ark has a very basic and limited AGS for 2 wire compatible gen sets. Gen start can be programmed with voltage or SOC, however gen stop is not a function that can not be readily programmed. Instead, the Sol-Ark is programmed to charge the battery bank to

Hi David and Matt! Which monitoring platform are you struggling with? There is a legacy platform that is set to be retired at the end of the year – the one we called “SMS” which had the old orange and black theme. It’s being replaced with SunPower Pro Fleet Management, which is available to our

Hi Chris I would install a timer. There are many dry contact dc or ac powered with a high degree of programmability. A question about the normal function of the AGS. I’ve talked to a few people that have mentioned that the ags has its own fuzzy logic, with limited programming. And they have h

Hi all, According to Sol-Ark tech support, they do not currently have a programmable exercise cycle for its two-wire start function. When paired with a generator like a Generac Ecogen (exercise cycle is automatically disabled when configured with two wire start) this means that the only way to eff
