Hello

I am having trouble getting my coach to auto start the charging process while away for the day. I suspect the voltage falls below the necesarry charge to turn over the generator and then when it reached the threshold, there is no cranking power. I don't want to just dial up the "start volts" if that ends up getting the gen running all day while we're gone.
The refrige is a major draw and we're coming home to systems down and having to battery boost to start the generator.
I even set the excerciser for 2 hours before quiet time but the voltage must drop too low already to get started.
Any suggestions...

We are primitive for 2 weeks and off for the day most of the time Thanks

What is your start volts set at?
