[jay peltz]

the good old 4024 don't have any difference  in the acceptance window from AC-1 or 2
Only issue is if you want genny support or AGS.

I'll keep that one in my toolbox.  Customer manually starts the generator so AC1 is an option.

Raymond there says turnaround is usually 1-2 days...he also said AC1 for the gen would be an option, though be sure to never use the "sell" mode.  I found Tekris through a search, but did not contact them.  It's good to see there are also other options to repair these inverters (thanks Mac).

It's wait and see right now with my new batt charge and AC2
