Venus GX - using as an AGS (auto generator start) controller

I have an immediate requirement to install/configure an AGS deice in my coach, and configure it such that when the interior coach ambient temp in the coach reaches a setpoint, and there is ZERO shore power, I'd like the generator to start.

Since I'm working towards a total off-grid solar solution, I'd prefer to purchase solutions that are still useful in the future.

If I purchase and install the Venus GX, what other components are MANDATORY to meet my primary objective?
