FAQ

Common
questions.

Getting Started 03 questions
+
Does it work on any generator brand? +
Yes. GenGuardian is brand-agnostic — it works on any standby generator regardless of manufacturer, model, or age. There is no proprietary hardware requirement.
What do I need to have ready before installation? +
Access to the generator panel and a confirmed service contact for SMS alerts. No WiFi credentials, no network configuration, and no changes to existing building infrastructure are needed.
How do I access the monitoring dashboard? +
Your dashboard is accessible at hosting.genguardian.pt. Login credentials are provided after your first unit is activated. Contact support if you have not received your credentials.
Device & Hardware 03 questions
+
What happens if the building loses power? +
The GenGuardian unit has an internal 1000mAh battery backup and communicates over 4G cellular — completely independent of the building's power supply and WiFi. It continues operating through a blackout, which is exactly when it matters most.
The device shows offline in the dashboard. What should I do? +
First check that the device has power and the indicator light is on. If the unit is powered but showing offline, check cellular signal strength at the installation location. Submit a ticket if the issue persists and include the device ID shown in the dashboard.
Does the device require a SIM card? +
Yes. Each device uses a dedicated SIM included with your subscription. The SIM is pre-configured and active — no setup required.
Alerts & Notifications 03 questions
+
Who receives the SMS alerts? +
Alerts are sent to the service contacts configured in your dashboard. You can update contacts at any time by contacting support.
What events trigger an alert? +
Configurable alert conditions include: generator failure to start, unexpected shutdown, low fuel, loss of mains power, and device going offline.
I am not receiving alerts. What should I check? +
Contact support to verify that the contact number is correctly entered in the dashboard and ensure that SMS is not blocked by your carrier.
Billing & Account 02 questions
+
How do I add or remove units from my account? +

How do I update my account contact or login details? +
Login and contact updates can be requested via the support form. Include your current registered email and the details you want updated. Changes are processed within one business day.
