Onan auto start

Yahoo Message Number: 118006
Despite having read and reread dutifully the instructions manual and properly entered the minimum and maximum voltage the genset never started automatically when the battery voltage reached the minimum set up and even lower. I guess there is something I 'm not doing properly or there is a problem with the Energy Command 30 that control the genset functions.
So before resigning myself to go see a specialist I would appreciate any comments or advice fom people more knowledgeable.
Thanks in advance

Mine is controlled by my Silverleaf system. The main Silverleaf unit has a battery in it to maintain memory. There is also a second Silverleaf control unit that is located under the mid bathroom sink, in back of a wooden panel. This also has a battery in it that holds the current time in its memory. Without knowing the current time the Silverleaf will not Autostart. If your system is generator panel operated then then that might also have a memory battery. Hope this helps.

On mine I have to correct any quiet time conflicts. Also have to ensure that auto charge is enabled.

Good luck.
