Hibernate Mode
Characteristics Hibernate mode removes network power from the System Control Panel
and all Xanbus-enabled devices on the Xanbus system. The System
Control Panel suspends all operations (including starting and stopping the
generator) until power is restored to the network. All Xanbus-enabled
devices other than the RS3000 have no network power.
When to use Use Hibernate mode when the Xanbus system is left unattended for long-
periods of time to prevent any unattended system activity and to prevent
battery drain during long periods of inactivity.
The system will automatically enter Hibernate mode if it is in Power Save
mode for more than two hours.
If there are active faults in the system, you cannot force the system into
Hibernate mode. Clear any active faults, correct the condition that caused
the fault, then put the system into Hibernate mode.
Restoring power Once in Hibernate mode, the System Control Panel cannot return the
System to Operating mode. You must restore power to the network by
pressing the Reset button on the RS3000 front panel for several seconds.
When the RS3000 has been reset, all of the front panel lights illuminate
and remain on for a minimum of five seconds. After five seconds, the
lights remain illuminated until the front panel has status information for
all the lights.
If an inverter/charger supplies power to the network, you can bring the
system out of Hibernate mode either by pressing the reset button on the
inverter/charger front panel or by applying AC input with utility power or
generator power.
Important:
To prevent any unattended system activity, put the system into
Hibernate mode from the System Control Panel before putting your RV or boat
into storage.
