Silverleaf EL200

I'm about to reprogram my autogen on my silverleaf and need some advise. What should be the top off volts?? I believe I moved it by accident.

P.S. I want to thank you Mike Gunn for his helpful input on an issue I had.

Mine is set at 12v and 13v respectively, I think it is to sensitive so will be curious what others think.

Topoff volts is the lowest voltage you'd want to start the night (quiet period start time) on. Actually, move backwards by the topoff runtime, so if your topoff runtime is 90 minutes (like mine is), then 90 minutes before the quiet period start time, if your voltage is below the Topoff Volt setting, it'll fire up the generator. If it's not lower, then it won't.
For me, I set it to 12.2 volts and 90 min (and have my regular autogen at 11.8 volts and 240 min). So if your quiet period starts at 10:00pm, then at 8:30pm it'll check the voltage, if 12.2 or below it'll fire up the generator, otherwise it won't. I haven't watched closely enough to see if it'll fire it up (for less than the full runtime) if it drops below the topoff voltage during that time window. I don't think it does, but I could be wrong and it's just never happened or I never noticed.
