terminal, strip the insulation back 3/8 inch (10 mm).

3.2.2 Remote Start-Stop Connections
Remote starting (for Cummins Inc. water-cooled generator sets only) uses terminals B+, GND (ground),
and RMT of terminal block TB2. Connect these terminals to like terminals on the generator set. Refer to
Interconnect Wiring diagram shipped with the switch. A jumper is shipped with the transfer switch and is in
a small envelope attached to TB2.

install a jumper between TB2-1 and TB2-2 for ground-to-start connection.
For Detector 12 genset controls:
install a jumper between TB2-2 and TB2-3 for B+ start.
For PCC 3200 and 3201 genset controls requiring a dry contact start:
