GenMon on New Generac Generators

[redchairlabs]

I bought my Generac Guardian 22kw generator about six years ago. GenMon has been working reliably ever since I installed it. Fast Forward to now and I my inlawas want to get a standby generator for their house. I want to put a GenMon on it as well but am not sure what the current compatibility is with the newer Generac controllers.

I was hoping someone with recent experience could bring me up to speed.

Genmon works with the latest firmware versions of the Generac Evolution 2.0 controller, which is used on their residential generators.

you can make it any number of minutes. More info is here: https://github.com/jgyates/genmon/wiki/1----Software-Overview#genexercisepy-optional

@jgyates Will know more but I think if you create your extended exercise time schedule over the built-in exercise time schedule, then you essentially get one exercise time for that period. Not two distinct times.

@biggen1684 👍 👍 👍 Thanks! Good to know! Getting the HAT now 🚀

Just to clarify the comment from @biggen1684, the extended exercise has to start before the built in exercise cycle an continue for longer than the built in cycle.

I bought a new 24kw Generac 3 months ago. Genmon runs flawlessly.

Thanks for the feedback!
