Can you use a automatic solenoid changover switch when switching over from
shore power to an Onan MDJA diesel genset? The instructions I have
indicate that the load must be removed first, the genset started and then
the load applied. Is there a way to do that with a solenoid operated
automatic transfer switch?

The bigger question is how long do you let the MDJA warm up before you
apply the load to it, and does this all happen automatically? There are
a pile of Third Party sequencers that can do the job, but I have never
seen an ONAN Labled Setup for a MDJA Genset. Most users prefer to do
the whole job manually, so they can monitor and adjust the sequence, as
required for good operating practices.
