5.3.3.2 Stacking Fault Messages –
A fault condition may occur when two Inverters are stacked in series - using
the stacking interface to provide 120/240VAC output - that is not possible
on a single inverter installation. Refer to the following fault messages to help
troubleshoot the Inverters.

Figure 5-30, StackClock Fault

• StackClock Fault - 1. There is a stacker cable problem; or, 2. One
inverter is losing synchronization with the other inverter.
Remedy: 1. Ensure you are using a Magnum Stacking Cable (this is
not a telephone/data cable, this is a custom made cable). 2. Inspect
the stacker cable and reconnect at both ends (listen and make sure
you hear an audible "click" from the connectors at both Inverters).
Info: This fault has been known to occur when a Magnum Energy
accessory is plugged into the Stack Port, but the installation is not
using multiple Inverters in a stacked confi guration. If this occurs,
perform an inverter reset (see section 6.2).

• Stack Mode Fault - This unit has detected a problem with the "other"
stacked inverter, check that unit for a fault condition.
Remedy: This fault will automatically clear when the fault with the
other inverter is corrected.

Figure 5-32, StackPhase Fault

• StackPhase Fault - 1. The AC input wiring is incorrect; or, 2. One
phase was lost from the AC input source; or, 3. One of the inverter's internal
transfer relay is bad; or, 4. The inverter's AC input circuit breaker may be
open.
Remedy: If this fault doesn't clear after checking these four recom-
mendations; perform an inverter reset (see section 6.2).
