How do I Find or Reset the controller PIN? (formally the Generator Password)?

If you are adding a generator manually to the Kohler Energy Management app, the generator serial number and the controller PIN are required to connect your generator to the app.

Note: To retrieve your controller PIN from the generator, you must reset the controller PIN (generator password). At that time, a new controller PIN will be generated.

When the controller PIN (generator password) is reset on the controller, the connection to the internet will be lost. Anyone monitoring this generator on both the Kohler Energy Management app for homeowners and the Kohler Energy Management PRO app for dealers will need the updated controller PIN to reconnect their generator to their app.

Follow this procedure if you own the following:
RESA/RESC/RCL/RESV/VSG/RCA(L) Models with RDC2 or VSC Controller

  1. Press Select (circle between the arrows) and then press the down arrow button to navigate to the Network Information.
