generator for automatic Start and Stop

Has anyone connected a MASE Marine IS 5.0 generator for automatic Start and Stop with Raspberry Pi with Venus OS? Can you tell me connection diagram, thanks

No need for Raspberry Pi unless you are doing something very complex.

                 
If you implement this it should work.

Hi the Venus unit has a on/off relay, only

                 
you have to make up a interface box that trigers a start on the Mase when the relay close's and a stop when it opens,

                 
I use some timers that hold the start button down for 5 sec when it close's and then a stop timer when it opens
