1.13 Set the Exerciser

Set the exerciser to automatically run the generator set

on the desired day and time every week or every two

weeks. See the generator set Operation Manual for

detailed descriptions of the unloaded and loaded

exercise operation.

Note: Your generator will use either the RDC2 (RESV

models) or the DC2 (RESVL models) controller.

Determine which controller your generator set

uses and follow the directions to set that specific

controller. See Figure 1-28.

The first setting will flash. Press the Up and Down arrow

buttons to change the setting. Press Select to save the

setting and move on to the next. Repeat until the date,

time, and exercise are set and the controller display

shows the main menu. See the generator set Operation

1.13.2 DC2 Controller

To set the exerciser on the DC2 controller, first press

AUTO to place the controller into automatic (standby)

mode. Then press and hold the Exercise button. The

generator set will start and run a 20-minute unloaded

cycle exercise. The generator set will run automatically

for 20 minutes at the same time every 7 days. See the

generator set Operation Manual for more information.

1.13.3 Loaded Exercise

In order to set a loaded exercise using the RDC2 or DC2

controller, a Kohlerr Model RXT transfer switch must be

connected. See the generator set operation manual for

instructions to set a loaded exercise.

To set a loaded exercise on a generator set connected to

a transfer switch other than a Model RXT, use the

transfer switch controller to set the exercise. Refer to the

transfer switch operation manual for instructions.
