MENU SYSTEM

MENU SYSTEM

OVERVIEW

The operation of the inverter is determined by the settings in the menu system. The menu system is divided into a USER MENU and a SETUP MENU. Each of the menu systems is divided into MENU HEADINGS and MENU ITEMS. The menu headings break the menu into groups of related menu items. At the Menu Item level a setting can be adjusted, a mode can be selected or information can be displayed. When a number is included with the graphic of the menu heading or menu item in this manual, the values shown are the default value and are for a 12-volt domestic (120VAC/60Hz) model SW Series Inverter/Charger. For 24 volt systems multiply the DC settings shown by 2, for 48 volt systems multiply the DC settings shown by 4.

•The USER MENU provides the controls and settings needed on a daily basis. It allows you to turn on the inverter and generator, read the AC and DC meters, check on an error cause and even adjusts the inverter’s time clock.

•The SETUP MENU provides all of the settings required to configure the inverter to operate in the necessary modes for your installation. They are separated from the USER MENU to reduce tampering and simplify the daily operation of the inverter.

The SW Series Inverter/Charger MENU SYSTEM is accessed through the CONTROL PANEL on the front of the unit. To access the SETUP MENU, press both the red ON/OFF MENU and green GEN MENU buttons at the same time once. The display will show INVERTER SETUP (9). This is simply the continuation of the same menu system of the USER MENU. If you select a menu heading less than nine, or press either the red or green buttons, you will have to re-enter the setup menu by pressing the red and green buttons at the same time again.

SW Series specifications

Xantrex Technology has established itself as a leader in innovative power solutions, and its SW Series inverters epitomizes this commitment to quality and efficiency. Designed for both standalone and grid-tied applications, the SW Series offers versatile power management for a range of residential and commercial needs.

At the heart of the SW Series is its advanced pure sine wave output, ensuring clean and reliable electricity suitable for sensitive electronics. This feature makes it an excellent choice for applications such as solar energy systems, where it provides high-quality power for a variety of devices, from household appliances to complex machinery.

One of the key characteristics of the SW Series is its modular design, which allows for easy installation and scalability. This modularity enables users to expand their power system as their energy needs grow, making it an ideal choice for both small and large installations. The inverters come equipped with a user-friendly interface, providing clear information on system performance, battery status, and more, ensuring that users can effectively monitor and manage their energy consumption.

The SW Series inverters also incorporate cutting-edge technology, such as the patented Power Factor Correction (PFC) feature, which optimizes energy efficiency by reducing harmonic distortion. This translates into less wasted electricity and lower energy costs, making it an environmentally friendly option for users looking to reduce their carbon footprint.

Another notable feature of the SW Series is its ability to operate in extreme conditions. Built with robust components and advanced thermal management systems, these inverters can withstand a wide range of temperatures and environmental challenges, ensuring reliable performance in various settings. This durability makes them suitable for off-grid applications, including remote cabins, RVs, and boats.

Furthermore, the SW Series supports a variety of battery types, including lithium-ion, AGM, and gel batteries, offering flexibility for users to choose the best energy storage solution for their needs. The sophisticated battery management system ensures optimal charging and discharging, prolonging the lifespan of the batteries and enhancing the overall efficiency of the power system.

In summary, Xantrex Technology's SW Series inverters stand out for their pure sine wave output, modular design, energy efficiency features, and robust performance in challenging conditions. With their versatility and advanced technology, they cater to the evolving needs of today’s power consumers, making them a compelling choice in the modern energy landscape.
