I would like to ask a related question, how does the
old SW do generator start?  Relay 7 is the run
contacts and relay 8 is the crank contacts.  ( I
think) How does the SW stop cranking when the
generator starts?  

My repair customer has system with no diagrams done by
a now disappeared solar installer on a stand alone
system.

When the generator is set for auto and the batteries
get low, the generator cranks and starts.  The starter
stay engaged for a while after the gen starts.  Then
while running for a few minutes perhaps one minute the
starter tries to restart the running engine?  

Help
