I have a situation where the generator provided by the customer has a 10 second delay before it even tries to start. Generac 60 KW 277/480 wye with the Nexus controller. The factory claims the delay cannot be removed, and the customer is using an Eaton transfer switch which requires a two wire start. Generac has provided a two wire start module, but by the time the generator actually starts, and the transferswitch accepts the voltage, it is around 17 seconds. If started using the manual start switch it starts almost imediately. Has anybody had this problem before? And is there a cure other than getting a real generator? The reason we ended up with this one is because of the long lead time for any other generator, and the job completion date will not allow for it. (the Man/Off/Auto switch is soldered in to a pcb, so I can't intercept the "Man" wiring.)
