I think it’s simply a 120v to 16v AC transformer. Wired to the shore power.
When autogen is enabled and the 16v disappears, it kicks on the generator.

I thought I could undo the screws underneath the lugs for shore powe. But they would not budge. I’ll probably sandwich them into the main shore lugs and keep and eye on the tightness over time

It is only a sensing circuit to let the control panel know you have no shore power. Auto gen only functions based on a low battery or when there is a demand for air cond there is no "shore power failure" setting. as such.
