[RE-wrenches] Radian Generator Relay

[Michael Morningstar]

I did not check whether or not the 12v relay was functional.
I think I see where you are going. If the 12V relay isn’t working also, then the issue is elsewhere? Is that correct?
 
I did look into using the FNDC relay, however it appears that it’s control is through the FNDC menu. Things are so simple when all my client has to do to control the generator is push the GEN button and choose a mode. Searching for the FNDC menu adds a layer of complexity.
However,
What I’m seeing is that the board that the relay is on is part of a stack boards that costs 2K. So, it sounds like my options are to check to see if the 12v relay functions and then use that to drive a relay, or use the FNDC relay, or spend 2k for the board stack.
