Worst thing to happen to Standby generators

I am a technician of over 5 years, and this app is insane, the mobile app is too large for my phone screen and I can never access what I need to access due to this issue. Why do I need an app to set up a generator, why can I not register the generator like the old days with the 5 digit code? Yall ruined the Generac experience with this app and the 2 new generators I’ve installed the home owner doesn’t understand why this app is needed. It’s absurd and a time waster.

Intuitive

The app makes it really easy and reassuring to setup generator. I feel it would be good if there was a run start on the app also. The Bluetooth dongle that attaches to the generator makes it really easy to connect your phone app. I wonder if the app also relays on internet connection which could be problematic.

Frustrating

So it seems every other update there’s something wrong that doesn’t allow you to connect the app to Bluetooth, which leaves us down and not able to access the customers Generator until the next update.

Only having one method to access the service on a generator is very risky because there’s no fallback or fail safe

So here I am after an hour drive to a customer’s house after updating the app. There’s no option to connect to Bluetooth through the app.

Pathetic

Pathetic this is needed to install the generator and pathetic that we stand around for an hour waiting for the firmware update to complete

Needs to connect to Bluetooth but Dosent ask to connect to Bluetooth.

Settings> apps> field pro> no request for Bluetooth access

Fix this garbage app

How do you expect anyone to work on these new units when you have to delete and download the app 15 times before getting into it

Problem connecting

Connection problems just about every time I try to work on a generator

Does not support Generac 48kw XG

As the title states, I was unaware that this app did not support this generator. I am left with having zero ability for this generator to communicate back as there is zero cellular connection in my area and only WiFi. When trying to connect, the serial number just shows as “Generac” and refuses to connect as the serial number doesn’t match the prepared status. It would be nice if support was added for the new XG generators with the new cell module that run on the PowerZone 410 controller.

Not very good

Often doesn’t work smoothly and very rarely offers solutions more than “try again”. The old way of setting up generators was quicker overall and certainly much more consistent.
