Introduction
The OnCuer Plus Wireless Kit allows wireless
connection of residential/light commercial generator
sets to the owner's wireless router for Internet access.
Use this kit to connect the generator set to the Internet
for the Kohlerr OnCuer Plus Generator Management
System.
The kit uses a wireless access point (AP) to connect the
generator set to the Internet without running a cable
from the owner's router to the generator set. The
wireless AP is installed inside the generator enclosure
and powered by the generator's engine starting battery.
These instructions explain installation and setup of the
wireless AP.
The VHB tape provided with the kit allows installation of
the kit components without drilling additional holes or
using special tools. The ambient temperature must be
warmer than 0_C (32_F) at the time of installation. Once
installed, the tape is rated for --35 to 110_C
(--31 to 230_F).
See Figure 1 to identify the correct OnCue Plus wireless
kit for your generator model. See Figure 2 for the
wireless access point (tape not shown).
