I found this in the control panel of a standby generator that I purchased recently. Alerton TX-450 Rev 2. A not very good pic may be seen here:
I doubt that I would ever have a use for it. I'm intrigued to know what it is and what it does. I think it is a controller of some kind. It will be about 15 years old. I have spent some time googling but can't find much info. Came across a 130 page manual which I flicked through, not even sure if this relates to the same gadget. Thanks, Nick.
