Kohler® Generator Monitoring Solutions
Seamless Monitoring for Kohler® Gensets, On-Site or Remote
Monico Monitoring delivers purpose-built solutions for Kohler® generator monitoring, enabling both on-site diagnostics and secure remote access to critical performance data. Whether you’re using Kohler gensets in government facilities, commercial buildings, or industrial operations, our Gateways provide reliable communication, flexible data output, and easy integration into SCADA, BMS, or cloud-based platforms.
By supporting Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU, our systems make it simple to collect, log, and analyze generator performance in real time—improving uptime, streamlining maintenance, and ensuring readiness when backup power is needed most.
- Support for Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU protocols
- Convert Kohler data into 80+ industrial protocols
- Real-time remote access via virtual HMI (no extra software required)
- Fault-tolerant, high-speed data communication
- Four configurable ports for flexible integration
- Compatible with Decision-Maker 3000 (DEC 3000) and similar controllers
CDL Integration-Ready, Built for Flexibility
Our Gateways are ideal for integrating Kohler generators into broader operational systems. With support for up to four simultaneously active protocols and conversion of any standard or proprietary PGN, Monico devices act as a central hub—translating Kohler genset data into formats your systems already understand.
Typical integrations include:
- Building Management Systems (BMS)
- SCADA platforms
- PI System®
- Cloud-based monitoring
- Remote fleet dashboards
And with the Monico PLUS Gateway™:
- Web-accessible HMI screens via browser
- Real-time data logging
- FTP and Sync Server functionality
- SMTP and SMS alerting
One of the most valuable features of the PLUS Gateway is the built-in virtual HMI, which allows users to access live genset data through a standard web browser like Internet Explorer or Chrome. With no additional software or licensing required, teams can monitor Kohler generator performance remotely—checking status, alarms, runtime, and fuel levels from any connected device.
Real-World Testing, Proven Results
At Monico HQ, we’ve deployed our own Kohler 40REZG (40 kW) generator with a DEC 3000 controller for testing, backup power, and client demonstrations. This on-site setup powers our live virtual HMI demo, showcasing how customers can securely access real-time genset data from anywhere with an internet connection.
This hands-on environment allows us to develop, test, and fine-tune solutions using real Kohler hardware—ensuring our products deliver reliable performance in the field.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What Kohler generator models can Monico monitor?
We support Kohler industrial gensets that communicate via Modbus TCP or RTU, including models equipped with Decision-Maker 3000 (DEC 3000) controllers and similar systems. Additional controller support is available on request.
Can I monitor multiple Kohler gensets with one Gateway?
Yes. Depending on your system architecture and controller setup, a single Gateway can collect data from multiple generators or from the generator and ancillary systems like transfer switches or load banks.
Is the Gateway pre-configured for Kohler equipment?
Yes. Every Gateway is shipped pre-configured based on your Kohler genset model and application. Setup is simple and can be done by a qualified technician with basic computer skills.
How is data from a Kohler generator accessed and used?
Our Gateways collect data over Modbus and convert it into formats like Modbus TCP, BACnet, OPC UA, SNMP, and more. This allows integration with SCADA, BMS, or remote dashboards. Data can also be logged locally or pushed to a remote FTP server.
Do you offer remote access capabilities?
Absolutely. The Monico PLUS Gateway™ includes a virtual HMI that can be accessed through a standard browser—giving you real-time remote monitoring without any third-party apps.
