Remote Monitoring
GenLink is a remote generator monitoring software package that connects to any generator set
equipped with Generac's PowerManager control system. With GenLink, users can monitor multiple systems
from a single PC. It allows both the user and the servicing Generac Dealer to connect directly
with either a single genset controller or a Modular Power System (MPS) system controller
via direct serial connection, phone line or Ethernet connection.
Connected PCs display continuously updated information from the generator or system controller about each
generators operating condition. Input values and operational parameters can be easily viewed using
point-and-click menus and status screens. Valuable information such as generator usage data, alarm
history and predictive maintenance reminders are easily accessible.
If an alarm occurs, it is immediately displayed on connected remote computers, and the PowerManager
control panel can be programmed to immediately send out a call to both the user's and dealer's pagers or
cell phones. The dealer can use GenLink to remotely diagnose the problem and modify generator
configurations and parameters as needed. The dealer can then dispatch a service truck with the
necessary parts to quickly correct the problem.
