If you change settings while an exercise is running, the settings will not go into effect until that exercise is over. Once that exercise is done (or any time after the engine starts), I simply change the exercise mode to 'None' again.

Once a month I change the 'Exercise Mode' from 'None' to 'Loaded Full Speed', this then enables the 'Start Exercise' button in OnCue Plus and enables me to 'manually' start the exercise. That disables the 'Start Exercise' button also. If you want to exercise it when YOU want to, set the 'Exercise Mode' to 'None' and it will not exercise until you change that setting. OnCue Plus can set to 'Weekly' or 'Every Other Week' IF you want to exercise the genset on that basis. It sounds like you are familiarizing yourself with OnCue Plus. When I originally replied you hadn't mentioned this was a remote install. One of the previous visitors left the back door open and the oil tank was being refilled every three days or so. I didn't see it, but I heard it was quite a mess.Īnother time my friend got up there and discovered a big pile of oil receipts. This worked fine for a number of years.īroke all the pipes in the house. If he saw the red light on, he'd stop, fill up the oil tank, use his key to get in, restart the furnace, and leave a receipt. Being on the main road to town, the oil delivery guy drove past the house on a regular basis. If they ran out of oil, there was a red light in the front window that was turned on by a thermostat if the inside temperature got too low. Normal nighttime temperatures would be 0 to -10 F. Since the house would be used by us for bobsledding or by friends of the boss going skiing, the house was kept 'running' all winter. Sometimes we would stay at an old house that was owned by a friend's boss. Why not just winterize the house?We are only an hour away and do occasionally visit, and to 'winterize' of course means blowing-out all the water pipes.In the 1970s, I would go bobsledding in Lake Placid, NY.

It seems to me this Cycle mode is perfect to run weekly, and I dunno why the tech might have set it to Full Speed which the manual says only 'exercises at full speed for 20 minutes' w/no diags AFAICT.Ĭan anyone here imagine why a 20m Full Speed exercise might be preferred over the Cycle one? It seems to me that Cycle mode should always be preferred? Anyone know, or can speculate?īTW this water-cooled unit purrs like a kitten. monitoring critical things like battery voltage, coolant level, engine speed, output Hz & voltage, and oil pressure. Both run the engine for 20 minutes, but in the Cycle mode it runs 10min at low speed, then ramps-up to Full for about 5min and then down to Low again for a 5 minute 'cooldown', all the while doing diags i.e. I've found that while the Factory Preset weekly exercise is an 'Unloaded Cycle' type, mine instead was set to Unloaded Full Speed. When it was first started earlier this month the electrician gave me a pretty good rundown on it, but only today did I get remote access to it via Kohler's OnCue app and have been digging-around. I've realized a longtime dream of getting a whole house generator, a Kohler 24RCL.
