Generator Set: AllIntroduction
This Special Instruction will provide instructions for installation, configuration, and troubleshooting of the Product Link PL421 on a generator set.
Cat® Product Link is a remote monitoring and asset management solution that enables owners to oversee their entire fleet of equipment more efficiently and effectively by providing information about the location, utilization, and condition of their assets .
PL421 hardware collects GPS positioning and data reported directly off the asset and transmits it off-board through cellular GSM communications networks to the Cat Product Link Service.
Product Links intuitive, secure web-based user interface, called VisionLink, allows users to quickly and easily view the status and health of all remotely monitored equipment.
Through PL421 and close integration with the EMCP controller, Product Link also provides features specific to generator sets, including ready to run status.Important Safety Information
