[RE-wrenches] Equalizing with SW inverter

This was one of the limitations of the SW. If you want to have an EQ where
the generator shuts off when its finished, you need to do a little trick.
Setting the cursor to EQ just means the system will perform an EQ the next
time the genny runs, and that might be some random time in the future.
Setting the cursor to EQ and manually starting the genny works sort of, but
somebody has to stay around and babysit the system to manually turn the
genny off once the charge is done. Not ideal.

If you set the cursor to EQ and then temporarily adjust the two minute start
voltage up to any voltage higher than actual current voltage, you'll get an
auto-start. Since it was started under the inverter's command, it will turn
off once the EQ is finished.

Once the genny's running reset the two minute start voltage back to
original.
