Our Auto Gen start BMC-12 is adjustable to what voltage to come on.
I am not sure on the 2000 model.

Mine comes on at 12.1 v, but I believe they are programmable.

George,
AS you say Ding, Ding Ding, Dong.
If you look under the file section, you will find the manual for the BCM-12, I sent it in few weeks ago.
And yes they are adjustable for voltage and time.
This calibration is not for every one with a meter, it is not a real simple task.
One note of caution, If you screw it u p, the factory is no longer making them, so beware.
Have fun, but make sure you have a good DVM, I used the Fluke 87, cuz it works.
The link below might get you there, not sure
