Is there any auto generator switch?

Is there any auto generator switch that you can turn on an stand by generator without going outside starting it by doing by command prompt or ip address to start the generator?

it should start by itself after a few seconds of detecting a power failure!.

The same type of remote start kits that you can get for cars and trucks can also be used for generators. Automatic start kits exist that use a timer and start the generator after a previously set delay time has passed since the power outage began.

Remotely or automatically starting a motor can create safety issues. You are probably fine with a fully enclosed generator but I would not use automatic or remote start for a generator with exposed moving parts unless there is some way to guarantee that there will be nobody near it when it starts.

What kind of generator are you trying to start?

its one of them portable ones

Does it have an electric starter?

Then you can use something like this to "press" the starter button for you...

Or better yet, you can start it, and then monitor other things about it (temperature, gas level, output voltage OK, etc.) with this...

...the relay on these units might not be rated enough amps to switch the starter motor directly, but you can always have that relay trigger another relay that is.

Likely won't work. Too difficult to play with the choke.
