TRACE SW with auto genset start/stop [RE-wrenches]

[Mark Downing]

A "dirty little secret" about the max run time LED is
that it only lets you know that you guessed
incorrectly as to how long the generator would run
when you set the "max run time".  It's an idiot light.

One would assume that "max run time" meant that the
generator would be stopped at this point, but it
doesn't.  Sounds like a simple software fix to me.

I would guess that the generator isn't stopping
because the charged parameters aren't being met.
