The Wi-Fi connection process varies
depending on when it is performed:
• during initial setup and configuration of a
newly-installed generator, or
• on a previously installed and operating
generator.
As part of the generator installation process, it
is recommended to connect Wi-Fi during the
initial generator setup and power-up. The
activation code will automatically be
communicated to the generator controller
through Wi-Fi communication, provided the
generator has been registered and activated
at
www.activegen.com prior to making the Wi-
Fi connection. It also allows the user to select
the operating time zone immediately, keeping
exercise time on track and adjusting for
Daylight Savings Time as needed.
Begin the connection process by following the
applicable steps in the following table.
