Corepower LEDs Flashing

The Core Power unit's control panel has LED lights; it does not feature an LCD screen.
 

Environment

This article applies to the control panel on the 7 kW Core Power series of generators.


Cause

When all of the lights are flashing at the same time, this means that the exercise time is not set.
 

To set the exercise time:


1. Ensure that utility power is present.
2. Set the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to the AUTO position.
3. Press and hold the SET EXERCISE button for several seconds.
4. All the red LEDs should stop flashing immediately and the generator should start.
5. The generator will start and run for approximately 12 minutes and then shut down.
6. The exerciser is now set to run at this time of day each week.

Example: If the "Set Exercise" is pressed on Saturday afternoon at 2 pm, the generator will start and exercise for approximately 12 minutes every Saturday at 2 pm.

If the lights continue to flash, this could indicate a battery issue. It is recommended to contact a service dealer. See How Can I Find a Generac Service Dealer in My Area? for more information.
