Battery Monitor communication software

The Xantrex Battery Monitor is able to communicate with a personal computer. However, the optional external communications interface kit is required for this feature. This communications interface only needs to be connected when actually communicating with the Xantrex Battery Monitor, which will avoid unnecessary power consumption. With the dedicated Xantrex Battery Monitor Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP ® software, the user can simultaneously display all parameters. You can also program the Xantrex Battery Monitor from this link, and save the complete Function setup to disk. Furthermore, you can also read history data, test the Xantrex Battery Monitor, and activate or deactivate the Super-lock.

Super-lock

With the Super-lock feature, the setup menu of the Xantrex Battery Monitor can be completely locked and secured by a password. In Super-lock mode the history data cannot be erased. The normal operating mode is not affected by the Super-lock and the Functions in the setup menu can be reviewed, but not altered. Only a user/ installer with the password can unlock the Xantrex Battery Monitor using the communication software.

The Super-lock must not be confused with the setup lock (Function F20). The big difference between the two is that anybody can disable the setup lock, even without communication between the Xantrex Battery Monitor and the PC. The setup lock is used to avoid accidental altering of the Function values. The Super-lock can only be activated or deactivated through the communication software using a unique password. The Super-lock feature is primarily meant for warranty purposes.
