When the XW Inverter/Charger is operating, pressing and holding the On/Off
button () for five seconds turns the unit off. Pressing the On/Off button
momentarily returns the unit to its previous operating state.
When the XW Inverter/Charger is being turned off, the other Inverter Information
Panel buttons stop working. The shutdown process cannot be cancelled. The XW
Inverter/Charger can only be turned back on once the display is blank.
In Standby mode, the XW Inverter/Charger stops charging, inverting, and passing
through AC input. However, the unit remains powered up and present on the
Xanbus network.
To put the XW Inverter/Charger into Standby mode, press and hold the On/Off
button and the Equalize button simultaneously for about five seconds. The display
shows "Stb." To return the XW Inverter/Charger to operating mode, press the On/
Off button momentarily.
Pressing the On/Off button momentarily while the XW Inverter/Charger is
operating clears active faults and warnings.
In a single-unit installation, when the XW Inverter/Charger is turned off using the
On/Off button, Xanbus network power is lost. When Xanbus network power is
lost, network-connected accessories such as the Automatic Generator Start (XW-
AGS) and XW System Control Panel lose power and stop operating. XW Charge
Controllers continue to operate and communicate between each other if Xanbus
network power is removed.
If the On/Off power button is pressed and held on a master XW Inverter/Charger
(see "Inverter Mode" on the "Multi-Unit Config Menu" on page 3–23) and an
XW-AGS is installed in the system, the unit stops inverting/charging immediately
and turns off completely in 120 seconds. During this time, the display shows
"OFF." This interval allows the XW-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 and the
shutdown process cannot be cancelled. The XW Inverter/Charger can only be
turned back on once the display is blank.
In a multiple-unit installation, when a Slave XW Inverter/Charger is turned off,
other XW Inverter/Chargers continue to supply Xanbus network power and the
XW-AGS and XW System Control Panel continue operating.
