    Modern digital generator controller conversion?

    Got it up and running by bypassing the fuel solenoid and jumping the starter. Waiting for a 4 position key switch to arrive so I can try the built in controls.

    Modern digital generator controller conversion?

    Here is the controller manual. It looks like a bit of configuring, but it seems to have the flexibility to handle the I/O and logic I need. Looking at the diagram at the end (I am setting up single phase not 3 phase), it calls for 5a secondary current sensors (CTs), I have those ordered, but...

I think this is all I need for my generator control board to be able to handle the load switching. Terminals T1, N1 and N2 are still a mystery. They are fuse...

    Modern digital generator controller conversion?

    I have this generator controller on hand, and looking at the sensor inputs it looks to support each of the critical sensors on the MEP802a. Has anyone updated their unit to something like this? It would get me auto startup and shutdown, logging and a lot of failure detection and reaction...
