The first thing I did was to convert the generator from 230 volt to 115 volt. This will double the amperage also. First disconnect the battery and any AC power connected to the generator. Then you will need to open the top and remove the front panel. Then remove the two 7 mm screws just above the top of the control panel also remove the two 10 mm nuts at the back of this cover behind the circuit breaker. You should be able to remove the cover now by lifting the left side of the cover and close the top just enough so that the right side of the panel will clear the top prop. With the wiring exposed remove the wire numbered 11 from the circuit breaker and remove the bolt from the neutral wires. Now you want to pull the wire no. 11 from the white sensor note the direction and pull the wire numbered 22 from the neutral post through the white sensor where wire 11 was. You will need to remove the wire end to do this. Then install the wire 22 to the circuit breaker where you removed wire 11. Now you need to install a wire end on the wire 11 and install it with the other wires back to the neutral post. Thats it. you will now tie the two hot output wires together and between the neutral and this wire you will have 115 volts.
Now for the AGS wiring you will need to look at the auto-off-manual switch. You want to remove the wire from the post closet to the generator. The wire will have a blue and orange wire together in the wire end. Connect your start signal here to the wire. leave the wire disconnect from the switch. That is it. You will need to hook up the battery again. Applying 12 volts th the blue and orange wire will start the generator and removing the 12 volts will cause the generator to stop. You will still be able to start the generator if you put the switch in the auto mode, it has a 10 second delay or so but it should start. leave the switch in the manual mode for automatic AGS starting. It will also work in the off position.
I do not have my generator set up as a back up power generator. Meaning that there is no AC power feeding into the generator to sense a loss of power to start the generator. My generator only starts when my outback inverter tells it to start. This is an offgrid system the generator helps to keep the battries charged and will come on when there is a heavy load on the system.
Do this at your own risk, it works for me.
I hope that this helps someone.
