Operation
STATSTATION™
The control panel has a built in LCD display to monitor the
following features:
• Load Monitor (Total Generator Load)
• Hour Meter (Total Generator Hours)
• Maintenance Reminder (Engine Maintenance)
Load Monitor
The load monitor measures the output wattage (generator
load) of all the generator receptacles and will display the
percentage of total generator load.
Hour Meter
The LCD on the control panel also has a built in hour meter
that displays and records how many hours your generator
has run (up to 999.9).
Maintenance Reminder
The LCD on the control panel also has a built in
maintenance reminder to alert you to change air filter,
change oil, and change spark plug. The LCD display will
flash both the load percentage and the hour display every
50 hours for the different maintenance intervals. See
Maintenance Schedule for different maintenance intervals.
Pressing the “View” button will toggle between the flashing
load percentage and the flashing hour display. Once
maintenance has been performed, you must push and hold
the “View” button on the control panel for a minimum of
3 seconds to stop the display from flashing and return it to
normal operation.
Generator Capacity
To make sure your generator can supply enough running
watts and starting watts for the items you will power at the
same time, follow these three simple steps:
1. Select the items you will power at the same time. See
following list for typical wattages.
* Typical wattages listed are approximate only. Check tool
or appliance for actual wattage.
** The momentary electrical current the generator can
provide to start electric motors, per Briggs & Stratton
standard 628K. It does not represent the power required to
continuously run electrical loads. It is the maximum current
that can momentarily be supplied when starting a motor,
multiplied by the generator’s rated voltage.
2. Total the running watts. This is the amount of power
your generator must produce to keep your items
running. See following example:
Example
Total running watts = 2125
Highest starting watts = 2100
Total generator watts required = 4225
3. Estimate the starting watts you will need. Because not
all motors start at the same time, total starting wattage
can be estimated by adding only the item with the
highest additional starting watts requirements to the
total running watts from step 2.
