Turned on the Generator while plugged into 110. OOPS. Thought it had an auto switch that would turn off the 110. If this new rig does, it didn't work. Now the Gen works but we can't get the A/C to come on. Anybody know where there is an override switch or re-set (something) on the GEN or in the rig that will get our A/C back on?

Did you try the breakers on the generator? Pull off the cover and there should be two breakers right in front. Mine have tripped off there before. Or if its just your a/c it might be a breaker in the panel inside your rig, there should be a breaker panel just like in a house someplace inside.

You need to be really careful about doing that! People could get killed by your actions. Starting a generator while plugged into the power grid can back charge the lines and electrocute a person working on what they understood to be deal lines. Please take to heart how this accident happened and prevent it from happening again.
