stop working. The shutdown process cannot be cancelled. The Conext XW+ can
only be restarted once the display is blank.
In Standby mode, the Conext XW+ stops charging and inverting. Also in Standby
mode, the Conext XW+ disconnects its internal transfer switches which stops AC
to pass through to the AC output. However, the unit remains powered and
present on the Xanbus network. Lastly, in Standby mode, Conext XW+ basic and
advanced settings can be changed and put into effect.

power is off, network-connected accessories such as the Automatic Generator
Start (Conext AGS) and Conext SCP could lose power and stop operating.
Conext Solar Charge Controllers continue to operate if Xanbus network power is
removed, but they do not continue to communicate with each other. Furthermore,
the Conext Combox will not collect harvest data while it is off, even though MPPT
is still functioning and collecting data.
If the /

Conext AGS is installed in the system, the unit stops inverting or charging
immediately and shuts down completely in 120 seconds. During this time, the
display shows . This interval allows the Conext AGS to stop the generator after
a cool down period. During the 120 second shutdown time, all network
communication is blocked and the unit sends a shutdown command to all other
devices in the system. As well, the inverter information panel buttons stop
working. The shutdown process cannot be cancelled. The Conext XW+ can only
be restarted again once the display is blank.

XW+ (see "Inverter Mode" on the "Multi-Unit Config Menu" on page 3–39) and a
Conext AGS is installed in the system, the unit stops inverting or charging
immediately and turns off completely in 120 seconds. During this time, the
display shows . This interval allows the Conext AGS to stop the generator after
a cool down period. During the 120 second shutdown time, the master unit stops
network communication and the slave units issue an external sync fault (F69) or a
system configuration fault (F66). As well, the inverter information panel buttons
stop working. The shutdown process cannot be cancelled. The Conext XW+ can
only be restarted once the display is blank.
