I have a Generac Model 0065512 Standby Generator and cannot find the

of one?

I don't know if mine is working right or not. I caled local dealer
who said he would come out to take a look. Promised twice - never
showed.

I suffered a brief outage recently - the lights blinked then came back
on. However my TVs had to be restarted manually. Same for my PC.
Would this be normal?

Thanks

DEFINITELY normal, as the generator can not anticipate the outage and
start before the power goes out, nor can it switch quickly enough to
not reset MANY devices.

They take some number of seconds to start up and get up to speed.
It's a generator, not a UPS. If that's the only issue, it's going to be
an expensive service call for nothing. Also these have self-test built-in
and normally run a test cycle once a week. Should have a code or something
set if something is wrong. Newer ones, I would think would have added
the ability to communicate via wifi to let you know too, but IDK, the
one I worked on was from over ten years ago.
