Completing the Setup

To complete the setup:

uConfigure the XTR to use the 485 remote interface and setup the

terminal that will be used on the connected PC.

See sections entitled “Selecting the Appropriate Communication

Port” on page 5–20 and “Terminal Configuration” on page 5–17 for

more details.

Configuring Remote Control using the USB Connector

The power supply can be controlled from a remote terminal using a USB

interface. The standard USB connector is located on the rear panel of both

the XTR 850 Watt, as shown in Figure 1-3 and XTR 1700 Watt, as shown

in Figure 1-6. Use a standard USB shielded cable up to 9.84 feet (3 m) in

length.

Setting Up the PC to Use the USB Connection

Installing USB to Serial Converter and Serial Port

To set up the USB connection, you’ll need to download the latest driver

from Future Technology Devices International Ltd. or from

www.xantrex.com.

To download and install a virtual COM port (VCP) driver:

1. Go to www.xantrex.com and navigate to the XTR product web page.

2. Click the download link to download the driver.
