Page 14: Assigning Of Rs-485 Addresses
Unlike the Xtender communication bus which automatically assignes the addresses, these will have to be manually configured for all devices on the RS-485 bus. Begin by connecting the Xcom-MS with the Xtender bus and start the system. Thereafter each solar charge controller is separately connected to the RS-485 communication bus as described in figure 4.4. - Page 15 Once all solar charge controllers have been assigned an address, they can be interconnected as in figure 4.1. To confirm that the right number of solar charge controllers have been detected, control the display value "Number of MPPT" (see table 5.1). The Xcom-MS is ready to use. User Manual...

5.1. Status indication displayed on the RCC-02/-03 In installations with an Xcom-MS, the remote control RCC-02/-03 has an additional view, showing perfor- mance data of the solar charge controllers, see figure 5.1. On this display four values can be indicated. -
Page 17: Management Of Charge Cycles
The internal set of paramenters in the solar charge controllers is constantely being synchronised with the set of parameters of the Xcom-MS which can be found in the menu {8003} "Battery management without synchronization". These parameters can be modified using the RCC-02/-03. If a parameter is changed the synchronisation can take up to one minute and may generate a restart of the solar charge controllers. -

6.3.2. Charge cycles synchronization activated {8001} When this parameter is set to "Yes", the solar charge controllers are driven by the Xcom-MS to follow the same charge cycle as the inverter-charger(s) (see section 5.2). -
Page 19: Battery Floating Level {8004
Studer Innotec SA Xcom-MS This menu contains a parameter set for the battery cycle, which is copied to the solar charge controllers as described in section 5.2. Further information on these parameters can be found in the solar charge controller documents. -

5. Check that the battery voltage is visible on the TriStar solar charge controller terminals. 6. The TriStar solar charge controller can function without connection to the Xcom-MS. When the RS-485 connector is disconnected, the TriStar solar charge controller will stop automatically. It has to be discon- nected from the battery and then reconnected in order to function in autonomous mode. -
