About the System Control Panel

Complete	The Xantrex System Control Panel provides configuration and
system control	monitoring capability for a Xanbus system. The System Control Panel:
	• Monitors activity throughout your power system.
	• Displays the settings and status of each Xanbus-enabled device.
	• Enables you to adjust settings for each Xanbus-enabled device.
System	The System Control Panel uses Xanbus™, a network communications
component	protocol developed by Xantrex, to communicate its settings and activity
	to other Xanbus-enabled devices.
	Xanbus-enabled products are:
	• Easy to use. The Xanbus network simplifies operation and automates
	routine tasks.
	• Reliable. Software control eliminates errors due to analog signaling.
	• Accurate. Digital information is less susceptible to interference and
	line loss.
	• Upgradable. Software upgrades mean your purchase will remain up to
	date.
	Important: The System Control Panel is compatible with Xanbus-enabled
	devices including RS, MS, TS and IS Series, and Freedom SW 3000 inverter/
	chargers as well as the Xantrex Automatic Generator Start. The System Control
	Panel is not compatible with Prosine, Freedom SW 2000, Freedom HW, and
	Freedom HF, RV, or SW Series inverter/chargers from Xantrex.
System	The System Control Panel requires a Xanbus power supply to operate.
requirements	Network power is carried by the network cables, and can be supplied by a
	Xanbus-enabled product (such as an inverter/charger) or an external
	Xanbus power supply.
	As a device that draws network power, the System Control Panel
	consumes a maximum of 3 watts.
