The Xanbus™-enabled designation means that the product works on a Xanbus network.
Xanbus-enabled products are:
•
Easy to use. The Xanbus network simplifies operation and automates routine tasks.
•
Reliable. Software control eliminates errors due to analog signalling.
•
Accurate. Digital information is less susceptible to interference and line loss.
A network is a collection of devices that perform individual functions, but also
communicate and interact with the other devices. The network capability of the XW
Power System provides a robust, integrated product solution that simplifies and automates
the installation, configuration, control, monitoring, and integration of devices that deliver
and distribute AC or DC power.
Each device is integrated into the network using cables, network connectors, and
terminators. An example of a network-managed power system is shown in Figure 3-1.
