  • Page 11: Introduction

    Introduction Chapter 1 introduces and describes operational and physical features of the XW System Control Panel.

  • Page 12: About The Xw System Control Panel

    Enables you to adjust settings for each Xanbus-enabled device. System The System Control Panel uses Xanbus™, a network communications component protocol developed by Xantrex, to communicate its settings and activity to other Xanbus-enabled devices. Xanbus-enabled products are: • Easy to use. The Xanbus network simplifies operation and automates routine tasks.

  • Page 13: Physical Features

    Physical Features Physical Features See Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2 for the front and back features of the System Control Panel. Front Panel Features Standby Fault/Warning System Control Panel II Figure 1-1 Front Panel Feature Fault/Warning light indicates a device has a fault or warning condition and requires attention.

  • Page 14: Back Panel Features

    Introduction Back Panel Features Two Xanbus network inputs on the back panel let you connect the System Control Panel to other Xanbus-enabled devices. See Figure 1-2. Xanbus network inputs (8-pin RJ-45) Figure 1-2 Back Panel System Components The Xanbus system (Figure 1-3) includes the System Control Panel and other Xanbus-enabled devices.

  • Page 15: Installation

    Installation Chapter 2 contains information and procedures for planning and performing a XW System Control Panel installation, including: • Materials and tools required • Choosing a location • Choosing a network layout • Mounting the unit • Connecting the System Control Panel to other devices.

  • Page 16: Installing The Xw System Control Panel

    Installation Installing the XW System Control Panel The XW System Control Panel is designed to be wall mounted (see “Mounting the System Control Panel” on page 2–11), and requires no connections other than Xanbus network cables or a terminator plugged into the back of the unit.

  • Page 17: Network Installation

    Xanbus power supply—the network requires a power supply capable of providing 15 Vdc/200 mA to each device. The XW Series Inverter/ Charger provides network power, but if no inverter/charger is installed, an external power supply is required. Contact Xantrex for more information. •...
  • Page 18 If the network is not properly terminated, signal quality is degraded and performance on the network is reduced. Permanent configuration without terminators is not supported by Xantrex. The System Control Panel ships with one male terminator already installed. Depending on your network layout, this terminator may need to be removed and inserted into another device elsewhere in the network.
  • Page 19 Network Installation Male network terminator Female network terminator Figure 2-3 Network Terminators • Network connectors (optional, depending on network layout)—the three-way connector houses three RJ-45 inputs that provide a device connection point on a multi-drop backbone layout (see “Multi-Drop Backbone Layout” on page 2–6). All three inputs are wired identically and can accept either Xanbus cables or terminators.

  • Page 20: Ordering Network Components

    Ready-made cables are available in standard lengths from 3 feet to 75 feet. For the most up-to-date list, call your dealer. Call your dealer or visit the Outlet Store at www.xantrex.com to purchase cables and other network components. Table 2-1 Network Components and Part Numbers...
  • Page 21 Network Installation Network terminators are required at both ends of the network, and the Xanbus-enabled devices do not require their own termination. If cables are placed at the end of the network, female terminators are required. Otherwise, male terminators must be inserted directly into the open input of each network connector at the end of the network.

  • Page 22: Guidelines For Routing The Xanbus Cables

    Installation Disadvantage The disadvantage of the daisy chain layout is that Xanbus-enabled devices cannot be removed from the network without interrupting the network. To make the network function after removing a device, you must connect the Xanbus-enabled devices on either side of the missing device to each other or replace the device.

  • Page 23: Connecting Xanbus Cables

    Network Installation • Keep the alignment of wire pairs inside the sheath as straight as possible. • Allow separation between data and power cables (data cables should only cross a power cable at right angles). • Do not staple the cable with metal cable staples. Use appropriate hardware fasteners to avoid damage to the cable.
  • Page 24 Installation Multi-Drop Backbone Layout To connect Xanbus cables to the System Control Panel: 1. Install one network connector for the System Control Panel and each Xanbus-enabled device. 2. Connect a Xanbus cable from the nearest network connector to a Xanbus network input in the System Control Panel. 3.

  • Page 25: Mounting The System Control Panel

    Mounting the System Control Panel Mounting the System Control Panel The System Control Panel can be mounted three ways: • Flush mounted through an opening in a wall using the mounting plate • Surface mounted using the mounting bracket • Flush mounted through an opening in a wall and secured with four #6 screws.
  • Page 26 Installation Rotate tabs to horizontal position Figure 2-8 Securing the Mounting Plate 5. Connect the Xanbus cable(s) (and terminator if necessary) to either network input on the back of the System Control Panel. See Figure 2-9. Connect a network terminator to the System Control Panel if it is the last device at the end of a daisy chain network layout.
  • Page 27 Mounting the System Control Panel 6. Place the unit into the mounting plate and secure it with four #6 screws. Figure 2-10 Securing the System Control Panel 7. Peel off the protective plastic coating covering the screen and indicator light. To flush mount the System Control Panel with no mounting plate: 1.
  • Page 28 Installation To surface mount the System Control Panel: 1. Using the supplied template sticker as a guide, mark the locations for two mounting screws and the access hole for the Xanbus cables. 2. Using a hole saw, cut out the access hole for the Xanbus cable(s). 3.

  • Page 29: Verifying The Installation

    Verifying the Installation Verifying the Installation If network power (from an inverter/charger or external power supply) is present, the backlight will come on and the System Control Panel will show the startup screen (see page 3–3). When the System Control Panel is started up on the Xanbus system for the first time, it displays a fault message asking you to set the clock before proceeding.

  • Page 44: Using Cascading Parameters

    Configuration Using Cascading Parameters Xanbus-enabled devices are configured one at a time. However, because devices often have common settings, cascading parameters can simplify and speed up system configuration. When a parameter is “cascaded,” a newly configured device setting is applied to all devices of the same device type on a common AC or DC connection.
