[RE-wrenches] Mates Losing time & dates

[Tump]

OUTBACK/CHRIS you out there??????
 
Jay this sucks! I too have seen this way too often. It has gotten to the
point despite changing out the mate I now suggest to my clients, that every
month they "repole" their mate. I also mark the port that the mate plugs
into & tape the dead front mate 2 port just to be on the safe side had that
happen before plugged into the wrong port.
This problem & it is a PROBLEM! seems to be going on for a long time! How
about addressing this problems Chris F?

Hi Mark, 

No this issue I've had is that the mate just won't start the generator with
usual symptoms  of system shut down.

But when I go to the mate and press start, generator starts right up.  All
setpoints are correct.  Replace the mate, and all is good, again same
setpoints.

So I can only surmise the problem is a mate issue that I've yet to track
down, but have a fix.

Jay,
Funny you should mention this.  A customer just called today to say that his
Mate has been failing to shut down his generator and they have been walking
into a smelly room full of boiling batteries each time.  Is this what you
are referring to when the AGS's are going bad?
I recently replaced an older Mate with this one that has the updated
firmware.
