GreyHawk Generator autostart

Is this a feature on all units or a special order item? If it is on all units, how do I activate it?

Thanks,

You would have a black panel marked Energy Commandl 20 or 30 on your control panel with a digital clock. If it came with the MH the book would be with all your paperwork. I didn't think it came on the Greyhawks. You can probably add it for around $600.

If you are refering to the auto-changeover that is the transfer switch, not auto start.

Not autotransfer(That is standard and is a great addition) , rather the system that starts the gen set when the battery is too low.

Funny story regarding the lack of autotransfer on previous RV - In our old view, you had to plug in to the generator outlet or there would be no power in the house, minus the 12V stuff of course. One time my DW helped pack up and she put the power cable in the bay, but did not plug it in. Later she wanted to turn on the TV so she started the gen set and then told me nothing was turning on. Power center checked out fine, flipped the breakers, then it dawned on me that I was not the one who put away the power cable... I love the auto transfer switch.
