how to get Outback inverter to auto start champion generator
« on: January 16, 2015, 01:09:47 AM »
I'm looking for a way to rig a new champion generator 3500 /4000 watt model to autostrat via Outback 3524. There are autostarts available on line starting at $250! My budget won't allow that for a while. The generator has an automatic choke and a nifty wifi key start.

The Outback inverter has a aux contact which can turn power off and on. My midnit classic could serve this function I think.So that's what I have to work with. I also has several solid state relays and delayed relays.

Turning the run circuit on is easy enough and the automatic choke is taken care of.
The only real task is going to be turning the starter on and off when the engine starts. I'd like to hear some ideas. Someone here must have been up against this brick wall before. Thanks!
Phil
