If there is sufficient energy from the PV array, this screen is displayed

 

continuously while t e system is operating normally. In a multiple unit system

 

with communications cables properly connected, the power and cumulative

 

energy values displayed are for the entire system.

 

During low light conditions when the GT Inverter cannot produce any power, the

 

Normal Operation default screen flashes alternately (every two seconds) with the

 

Insufficient Solar Energy screen (see Table 5-10, “Special Message Screens” on

 

page 5–8).

 

 

 

 

 

More screens for all

Besides he default normal operation display, more system information messages

systems

can be viewed.

 

 

 

 

To view more Normal Operation information:

 

• Tap he Xantrex logo near the LCD to advance the display to the next screen.

 

Normal operation screens shown in Table 5-3 are displayed in the order given,

 

as you tap successively on the unit. They are common to all GT Inverter

 

Systemsystems, no matter how many units are installed.

 

If you continue to tap the unit, then the LCD continues to cycle through all of the

 

available normal operation screens. Each screen is displayed for a maximum of

 

30 seconds. If you do not tap again during that time period, then the LCD

 

backlight turns off and the display reverts to the default system message screen.
