Basic Installation Procedures

Step 7: Mounting the Display Panel

Xantrex has three communications cables of different lengths available for purchase. Choose a 25-foot cable (p/n: 31-6257-00), 50-foot cable (p/n: 31-6262-00), or a 70-foot cable (p/n: 31-6275-00).

Flush mounting the panel on a wall or bulkhead requires an opening specified in the display panel mounting template. About 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) of free space is required within the wall to accommodate the depth of the panel. Be sure there is no wiring or other obstructions within the wall before you make an opening.

To mount the display panel:

1.Choose a location that is dry, out of direct sunlight, free from corrosive or explosive fumes, and otherwise appropriate for mounting an electronic device.

2.Remove the display panel from Freedom HW.

3.Pilot-drill the corner holes using the display panel mounting template and cut out the hole in which the display panel will be inserted.

4.Position the display panel mounting plate over the hole and fasten it to the wall using all four screws in all the corners of the mounting plate.

5.Route the communications cable(s) inside the wall and through the mounting plate opening.

6.Insert the cable’s connector (the one through the opening) in the jack on the backside of the display panel.

7.Place the display panel through the opening of the mounting plate and secure it with two screws – one for each side.

8.Route the communications cable to the Freedom HW’s display panel compartment and insert the other connector in the jack located near the battery select dip switch.

9.Install the display panel compartment cover over the compartment and secure it with two screws – one for each side.

Important: Do not route the communications cable in parallel and in conduit with the AC and DC wires. In situations where the cable must cross with the AC and DC wires, make sure they cross at a 90° angle to each other.
