1. A method of using a network to control a power generating and management system, the method comprising:
- using a server on the network to access a generator controller that is part of the power generating and management system, wherein the generator controller is configured to operate a generator that produces power; and
using the network to exchange communications between the server and the generator controller in order to permit the generator controller to control other electronic components that are part of the power generating and management system, wherein the server provides updated programming for the other electronic components that are part of the power generating and management system to the generator controller, wherein the generator controller provides the updated programming for the other electronic components to the other electronic components that are part of the power generating and management system.
