1.10.2 OnCue® Plus Generator Management System
The OnCue
®
Plus Generator Management System allows monitoring and control of your generator set from a personal computer
located in your home or at other remote locations. OnCue
®
Plus can also be configured to send email or text message
notifications in the event of a generator set fault. See the OnCue
®
Plus Software Operation Manual, for software instructions.
The OnCue
®
Plus system is available separately as a loose kit. Use category 5E network cable to connect the VSC controller to
the customer-supplied Ethernet router and cable or DSL modem. Route the cable with other low-voltage signal wiring (for
example, the RBUS communication leads or engine start leads), in separate conduit from the AC accessory power. If the network
cable is longer than 100 meters (328 ft.), use a repeater or switch. If the OnCue
®
Plus Wireless Kit is used, follow the installation
instructions provided with the kit.
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 another 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.
Connect to the Ethernet cable in the customer connection area of the generator set. See Figure 22. Use an RJ-45 inline coupler,
provided with the OnCue
®
Plus kit, to connect the customer’s Ethernet cable to the cable in the customer connection box.
