Every time I think I have figured out how AGS works, I discover not really.

I had my start voltage set to 11.8. I set it there based on some information I gleaned from another discussion on this board. That made sense due to spikey power needs when using microwave, coffee maker, etc.

So, I was making coffee and suddenly the coffee maker quit, along with everything else running off the inverter. I looked at my inverter remote and found it had a “low voltage” fault at 12.2v. Mind=blown.

If that is going to happen at 12.2v, why would I set the AGS start at anything less than that?
 
What is your Low Battery Cutoff Voltage (LBCO) set to? If it's higher than AGS then AGS won't trigger.

My Keurig would spike it hard so I had LBCO set to 11.0. AGS when paired to a BMK (battery monitor kit) that gives State of Charge (SOC) is a much better setup as it doesn't trigger on spikes as it's a steadier reading of battery state.

If it blew your mind, your brain is obviously pulling too much power from the inverter😝.

Oh jeez. I’m going to have to look at settings somewhere. Oy.

Your low voltage cut off needs to be lower than your AGS setting.
