1.12.7 OnCue Plus Generator
Management System
The OnCuer Plus Generator Management System
allows monitoring and control of your generator set from
a personal computer, smart phone, or tablet. OnCue
Plus can also be configured to send email or text
message notifications in the event of a generator set
fault. Both a network cable connection version (OnCue
Plus) and a wireless version (OnCue Plus Wireless)
are available. See TP-6928, OnCue Plus Operation
Manual, for instructions.
Note: Wireless connection of the generator is only
available with the purchase of OnCue Plus
Wireless.
OnCue Plus
OnCue Plus is available separately as a loose kit. Use
category 5E network cable to connect the RDC2
controller to the customer-supplied Ethernet router or
modem. Route the cable with other low-voltage signal
wiring (for example, the RBUS communication leads or
engine start leads to the transfer switch), in separate
conduit from the AC load leads. If the network cable is
longer than 100 meters (328 ft.), use a repeater or
switch.
Recommended: Use a laptop computer to verify the
network connection before connecting to the generator
set.
Checking the network connection
1. Check for and turn OFF any wireless connections
to the laptop.
2. Connect the network cable to the laptop. Connect
the other end of the network cable to the
customer's router or modem.
3. Verify the Internet connection by opening your web
browser and going to www.kohlerpower.com or
any known website.
4. After verifying the connection through the network
cable, disconnect the network cable from the
laptop and turn the laptop wireless connections
back on.
