MENU SYSTEM

USER MENU

The USER MENU provides all 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 adjust the inverter’s time clock.

MENU HEADINGS

Inverter Mode

1

Allows control of the inverter and enables the search and charger only modes.

Generator Mode

2

Allows control of the generator, enables automatic operation or triggers an equalization charge cycle. This menu heading is used only if a generator is included and controlled by the inverter.

Provides information for accessing Xantrex. Also provides the software revision number and allows resetting to the factory default values.

Allows monitoring of the DC battery voltage, AC voltages and AC current of the inverter and other AC sources.

Provides an indication of the cause of an error condition. Check this menu heading if the red ERROR LED indicator is illuminated on the control panel.

Sets the internal 24-hour clock. This is used for time sensitive operating modes and to determine the “quiet time” period for generator run lockout.

Generator Timer

7

Used to set a run lockout period called “quiet time”. During quiet time, the generator starts only if the battery voltage reaches the LBCO 30 sec start VDC setting.

End User Menu

8

Used to display that you have reached the end of the USER MENU.

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.
